Two federal fishery law enforcement agents visited Monte Rome last week at his Intershell speciality seafood distributorship, as Rome prepared to testify as a witness for the Gloucester Seafood Display Auction at the trial scheduled to begin five days later.
And the action is drawing questions and fire from state Attorney General Martha Coakley, U.S. Sen. John Kerry and others.
One of the agents — the one who showed a business card — was James M. MacDonald. The card said "special agent." MacDonald worked out of Portland, Maine, for the Office of Law Enforcement, National Marine Fisheries Service.
Rome was preparing to testify under oath about a conversation he had a number of years ago with Charles E. Juliand, who heads the Office of General Counsel in Gloucester. And Rome said the agents wanted to know what he intended to say in his testimony — specifically about his 4-year-old conversation with Juliand.
Rome said the agents appealed to his "spirit of cooperation."
Rome said he was furious, and said, "How dare you come in here and ask me to speak to a federal agent."
He said he believed the agents were armed. But MacDonald and his partner departed soon thereafter, without Rome's cooperation.

How is the agency not all over the news with a clamoring for a "house cleaning". Any other business or organization and there would be a whole Senate inquiry/investigation.
