Federal authorities arrested a British citizen at Thurgood Marshall Baltimore-Washington International Airport on charges that he stole the identity of a Senate aide who died in 1994.

State Department officials said Thursday that John Skelton, who lives in Baltimore, posed as a former aide to Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who had died at the age of 28. Skelton had obtained a passport in Kurt Branham’s name.
