Former Third-Ranking CIA Official Indicted In Fraud Case
The CIA's former No. 3 official and a defense contractor were charged Tuesday with fraud and other offenses in the corruption investigation that sent former Rep. Randy (Duke) Cunningham to prison. CongressDaily, The Washington Post, The New York Times and AP report that the indictment named Kyle (Dusty) Foggo, the executive director of the CIA until he resigned in May, and his close friend, San Diego defense contractor Brent Wilkes, according to two government officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because grand-jury proceedings are secret. In a separate indictment, Wilkes was charged with conspiring to bribe Cunningham, R-Calif., in return for government contracts. A man who was described as a co-conspirator in Cunningham's 2005 plea agreement, John Michael, also was charged.
