Ex-CIA exec faces sentencing for fraud

Kyle “Dusty” Foggo, the highest-ranking member of a federal intelligence or law enforcement agency convicted of a federal crime, is expected to be sentenced in Alexandria’s federal court today, where federal secrets could be made public.

Foggo, 53, admitted in September that he used his position as the third-highest-ranking member of the CIA to steer government contracts to his good friend Brent R. Wilkes.
