The prosecutors have unleashed a veritable flood of muck on Brent Wilkes today. In addition to the indictment based on his corrupt doings with CIA buddy Dusty Foggo, prosecutors have also unleashed a 42-page indictment on his extensive activities persuading Rep. Duke Cunningham (R-CA) and others (and yes, Shirlington Limousine makes an appearance).
I haven’t even gotten my hands dirty with that one yet, but this bit jumped out at me: in March, 1999, according to the indictment, Wilkes, mad that he wasn’t getting promptly paid for a Department of Defense contract, “attempted to intimidate” a DoD program manager in Panama City by “tellling him that people disappear in Panama all the time and never make it back home.”
Charming.
We’ll try and get a copy of the indictment up as soon as possible.
