NEWS: DIA CIO PUT ON INVESTIGATIVE LEAVE ON 2/27/19, JUST BEFORE 'BOMB CYCLONE' HIT DIA
In light of the 'bomb cyclone' that hit the midwest and Denver on March 13 2019, this seems perhaps significant. Remember, Denver was shut down in anticipation of the relatively tame 'bomb cyclone' that came through on 3/13. The night before, all schools were closed and DIA had already cancelled over 1000 flights. During the day on 3/13, DIA shut down all access to the airport and all 6 runways… anons suspected an OP was in progress, given the C_A links to DIA and Q's recent post re: DIA & conspiracy theories. See graphic.
Now we find out that….DIA's CIO was put on leave on 2/27 due to an unspecified "pending investigation" which included a "gag order."
Published 3/21/19 Denver Post:
Chief Information Officer Robert Kastelitz was placed on paid leave starting on 2/27/19, according to a notification letter obtained by The Denver Post. Kastelitz oversees information technology services and several related contracts at the airport.
"In order to protect the integrity of the pending investiation, we are unable to provide any comment or details at this time," DIA responded to several questions.
Reached by phone Thursday afternoon, Kastelitz said he as been given no detail about the investigation. "They never gave me a reason for this," he said, and he did not know who was conducting the probe. Kastelitz said he could not discuss the matter further because DIA's notification letter included a "gag order." That provision explicity applies to communication with anyone in city government or with employees of city contractors.
The 2/27 letter officially informed Kastelitz that he was being placed on investigatory leave and noted requirements he must follow. But it did not specify the reason he was placed on leave. The letter was signed by Gisela Shanahan, DIA's chief financial officer.
DIA has declined to further comment on Kastelitz's job status.
Kastelitz's main title is senior vice president for technologies. He returned to DIA in 2009 after a prior stint working at the airport earlier that decade; in between, he worked for the Nevada Supreme Court in an information technology-related position.
While he's on leave, Kastelitz will continue to receive his $204,163 annual salary, Stegman said.
