Treasury Department officials have concluded that some federal agents attended the controversial “Good Ol’ Boys Roundup” in Tennessee last year, law enforcement officials said. The gathering of law enforcement officials came under scrutiny following allegations of racist incidents, including reports of T-shirts and a videotape showing signs with racist messages. The department’s inspector general concluded that only a few agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms attended the event, which was dominated by state and local officers.
