A former congressional aide to Rep. Don Young (R-AK) helped the FBI with criminal investigations of two unnamed members of Congress, even secretly recording a conversation at the request of the bureau, according to filing by the Justice Department this week.
Mark Zachares, the former special counsel to Young on the House Transportation Committee who pleaded guilty back in 2007 to one count of fraud related to gifts and travel he received from lobbyist Jack Abramoff and his associates, is set to be sentenced in federal court next week. The Anchorage Daily News first reported on the motion.
