Law enforcement officials executed search warrants Friday on the house and office of CIA's outgoing executive director, the FBI said.
The agency's third ranking official, Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, has been under investigation by the FBI, IRS, Defense Criminal Investigative Service and the CIA's inspector general, said FBI spokeswoman April Langwell in San Diego.
Under a sealed warrant, officials searched Foggo's Virginia home and his office at the CIA's Langley, Va., campus, Langwell said. She could provide no other details.
I found this better article. Can we breaking news this?
Not surprised.
What an idiot.
Add it to your earlier post of the same IMO
Can't. It was pulled as "under review," whatever that means.
What's the background of this Foggo dude. How long has he been with the CIA? Any axes to grind? Hmmmmmm...
Ping
Can you speculate what was happening with Foggo? IRS means payments of somekind.
FoxNews just reported that the warrants have been issued and an investigation is underway with the FBI and IRS.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Law enforcement officials executed search warrants Friday on the house and office of CIA's outgoing executive director, the FBI said.
The agency's third ranking official, Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, has been under investigation by the FBI, IRS, Defense Criminal Investigative Service and the CIA's inspector general, said FBI spokeswoman April Langwell in San Diego.
Under a sealed warrant, officials searched Foggo's Virginia home and his office at the CIA's Langley, Va., campus, Langwell said. She could provide no other details.
The FBI and other agencies have been investigating whether Foggo improperly intervened in the award of contracts to a San Diego businessman and personal friend, Brent Wilkes, who has been implicated in a congressional bribery scandal.
In a statement, CIA spokeswoman Jennifer Millerwise Dyck also confirmed the searches of his home and office on Friday morning.
"The agency is cooperating fully with the Department of Justice and the FBI," she said. "Agency leaders outside of the (inspector general's office) were informed just prior to the execution of the search warrants, in keeping with standard law enforcement procedures."
Inevitable. I'm waiting to see how far the public shakedown goes.
"What's the background of this Foggo dude. How long has he been with the CIA? Any axes to grind? Hmmmmmm..."
Foggo was the CIA's 3rd highest ranking official and Porter Goss' aide.
There are rumors floating about that he is tied to the Duke Cunningham bribery scandal. Some gossips claim he was part of a prostitution ring. Now remember this is all rumor and none of it has been proven so take it with a bucket of salt.
FBI Spokeswoman is in San Diego which confirms to me that it has something to do with Cunningham.
Foggo was appointed ExDir by Goss. He is friends with Duke Cunningham. This stuff has no connection to Mary McCarthy and is probably old school garden variety contract-awarding corruption.
"Jennifer Millerwise Dyck"
That's a mouthful.
