Former FBI Agent Accused Of Leaking Info
(CBS) A woman who previously worked as an FBI agent and a CIA analyst is expected to plead guilty to charges she disclosed unauthorized information to people outside the government, CBS News has learned.
Sources say the woman, from Lebanon, entered the United States on a student visa and earned citizenship through a sham marriage.
While officials say there is no evidence of actual espionage and no evidence that she was working as a spy, she is accused of passing information to sympathizers of Hezbollah, a group the U.S. has labeled a terrorist organization.
Sources say she came under suspicion after performing a number of computer searches unrelated to cases she had been assigned to.
The woman is expected to appear in court this afternoon in Detroit.
Update From Debbie Schlussel:
I was right, yet again. I've read Muslim FBI Agent/Hezbollah spy Nada Nadim Prouty's plea agreement (read it here). And guess what? Surprise!--She's the sister-in-law of Hezbollah's $20 million dollar financier Talal Khalil Chahine (owner of "La Shish" restaurants which remain open!), whom U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy allowed to flee the country. Prouty is the SISTER of Chahine's wife, Elfat El-Aouar. Yup, LUUUV those great FBI and CIA Background Checks of agents.And get this: The FBI and U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy (and before him, U.S. Attorneys Craig Morford and Jeffrey Collins) knew Prouty was a spy for Hezbollah back in 2003, but they allowed her to work for the FBI and CIA for over FOUR Years! They did not remove her from the job until the end of this past September--1.5 years after her brother-in-law was indicted for financing Hezbollah!!!!!!
And I was right on another thing. She will do no or almost no jail time. Read the plea agreement, linked above. As reader Tim points out:
Nada Nadim Prouty is facing less than 12 months of jail time, or no jailtime at all, and three years of supervised probation and a fine totaling $2,225 under the plea agreement.For infiltrating the FBI and CIA and spying for Hezbollah.
How FREAKING stupid can we be?
Ashcroft's Justice Dept couldn't convict ANYONE out of Al Qaeda. They have BLOWN effort after effort. The FBI is probably still doing its searches on their Data General Q-1 2 bit, 12 kilohertz, 64 bytes memory, 8 inch floppy 2 story high big deal system they bought at flying toilet prices.
Who the hell can we vote for that can CLEAN HOUSE?
