Criminal Charges Possible Against Former No. 3 at CIA?

May 12, 2006 6:12 PM

Federal officials tell ABC News criminal charges against Foggo are considered likely, based on lavish vacations to Hawaii and Europe he has been said to receive in exchange for CIA contracts.

His attorney did not return calls for comment today but has previously denied that Foggo accepted bribes for rewarding CIA contracts.

Today was to be Dusty Foggo's last day on the job at the CIA. But when he arrived early this morning at CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, he was barred from the building and sent home as agents began to comb through his files looking for financial and travel records.

It looks like a "limited hangout" to me -- try to stem any further deeper investigation by quickly revealing the minor stuff so the really bad stuff does not get out. NOT SO QUICK, FEDS! There is far more corruption and massive illegality to be exposed here than what immediately meets the eye.

Bush appointed Goss and Foggo. Now he's going to appoint this crazy military person. Why does Bush hate America so much? Why does he hate New Orleans?

Cheney and the PNAC group are still calling the shots as far as I can see. They will all be multi millionaires when this is over.

And Duane, my poor naive little friend. You must not have been around very many Presidents if you think they all did what Bush is doing. Do you know bush has broken 750 Laws? Do you know that the Echelon spying was originally developed to spy on Soviet Union, and was not used on Domestic spying until 2002? Do you know that every other president believed in global warming and environment? Do you remember that Clinton had to fix what Reagan and Bush broke in their 12 years? Better not try and converse with the big boys until you get a few more years under your belt!

Duane,

Yes, you wouldn't have to look hard to find malfeasence in all administrations, but W has taken it to a new level...he's the Michael Jordan of governmental corruption.

Bush has chosen to surrounded himself with incompetent, unethical, and criminal people. Iraq, Fema, NSA, CIA, FDA, HUD, etc. etc. all stocked by Bush with ideological and incompetent cronies.

Bush is the tree that has produced all this rotten fruit. It's time that tree was axed. Impeach the lying boy king.

It seems vaguely familiar that they are using the old ruse of sex to oust this fellow. I would be willing to bet it goes deeper and he was a sacrficial lamb for the administration, to move the center of focus off the President's current foibles.

When all things fail, try, try, again.

Howdy , I hope the Socialist Democrats can come to their senses and quit their Incompetent ways of just opposing everything Capitalistic , and start Promoting a Pro Small Business Free Market policy that Clinton ruined during the 1990s , that led to the Biggest Corporate Merger era in US history, a degradation of the Mom and Pop stores ( Small Business Sector) , over the 1990s , because of the 10 year Tarriff Free import Policy he wrote into law in 1995 , that didn't end until 2005 , for crying out loud , was he in sane man ???? Now this policy has led the USA to trade deficits beyond belief , this man should be charged with a Crime , for writing such a Trade Policy , He actually Cut the Military in Half , which led to us becoming defenseless , had the CIA , FBI , and the NSA all cutting each others throats , Let the SEC look the other way when all the BOOK COOKING scandles were making everyone rich with Phoney Money , or Funny Money ,should we say, and then all the Socialist Democrats can do now is Bitch about why we are trying to stop the Growth of Terrorism , that grew without opposition during the Kick Back era of the Clinton years , common are we not going to stand up and say enough with the Liberal approach ???
