Actually the cited article conclusion reads:

  Conclusion

  There is no evidence that Townes-Whitley’s connection to the first lady, 
  or CGI’s campaign contributions, had anything to do with the contract being 
  awarded to CGI Federal as viral emails suggest.

  Company and government officials say the contract was awarded through a competitive 
  — yet limited — process, and that Townes-Whitley was not involved.

Just like when the same federal agency investigates their own employees and finds no wrong doing. Or when a cop is investigated, etc..

I've seen the corruption first hand.. first in the navy and then as a contractor. The joke about the $500 hammer isn't a joke at all.
