Lombard's story can be found here,and in it you can see the minute-by-minute details of the way we firstdiscovered a link between Lombard and the Episcopal Church of theAdvocate in nearby Carrboro. Lombard was on the vestry of the churchand was scheduled to rotate off in 2010. Saturday morning as the newsbegan to break, ECOTA started removing from its site all references toLombard, including his name on a page listing vestry members, then a"Who's Who" PDF that listed Lombard as a vestry member along with hisDuke email address, and finally an archived church newsletter fromFebruary 2008 that we believe shows Lombard (and perhaps his twoadopted children) with a group from the church posing on the frontsteps of a home-turned-office.

As is our habit with stories like this, we downloaded everything wethought was relevant and stored it for safe keeping before we postedanything on our site; thus we're able to provide the redacted documentsfor everyone to see.
