Ex-US Attorney Jessica Aber Investigated Russia, CIA Leaker Before Death
Newsweek ^ | 3/23/25 | Ellie Cook

Former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Jessica Aber, who was found dead at the age of 43 by Virginia authorities on Saturday, was at the helm of high-profile investigations into intelligence leaks, allegations of war crimes against Russian-linked individuals and people suspected of providing sensitive U.S. technology to Moscow before she stepped down at the start of the year.

Why It Matters

Aber, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, resigned in January after President Donald Trump was inaugurated. She had risen to lead one of the most important federal prosecutor's offices and roughly 300 prosecutors, civil litigators, and support personnel, regularly tasked with national security and terrorism-related cases.

The Alexandria Police Department said on Saturday that officers responded shortly after 9 a.m. local time to reports of an unresponsive woman at Beverley Drive, north of downtown and south of Arlington.

What To Know

In mid-January, Asif Rahman, a former CIA analyst, pleaded guilty to retaining and transmitting top secret national defense information to people who were not entitled to receive it, before the information then appeared on social media in October 2024.

Aber said at the time that Rahman had "disclosed top secret American documents in violation of his oath, his responsibility, and the law," and his actions had "placed lives at risk, undermined U.S. foreign relations, and compromised our ability to collect vital intelligence in the future."

The Justice Department said in late September that it had, along with the State and Treasury Departments and law enforcement, unsealed an indictment that charged a Russian national, named as Sergey Ivanov, with involvement in "multiple money laundering services that catered to cybercriminals, as well as the seizure of websites associated with three illicit cryptocurrency exchanges."

Because every death of a political connected person MUST be treated as suspicious given the obvious that “deadmen tell no tales”.
The history of humankind is filled with examples of “inconvenient people” conveniently dieing or disappearing.Many accused criminals walk free because witnesses failed to show and testify in court.
