FBI agents arrested an a former DEA agent today on charges that he plotted to launder money with the head of a Colombian drug ring he was supposed to be investigating. This went on for years.
The agent, Jose Irizarry, other DEA agents and informants picked up millions of dollars from suspected drug dealers in the U.S., Mexico and Europe in what were supposed to be undercover money laundering cases. But DOJ says he used the money for ... other things.

Former Rep. Duncan Hunter, who has pleaded guilty to misusing campaign funds to finance affairs and other personal stuff, says the case against him should be dismissed because two of the prosecutors had previously been present at a Hillary Clinton fundraiser.
(Hunter's lawyers had previously made an almost identical motion to dismiss the case, which didn't go well.)
Here's the motion ->

The story I left behind at @usatoday: The Justice Department is investigating whether famed DEA agent Enrique Camarena, who was kidnapped and murdered in Mexico in the 1980s, was first betrayed by people within the U.S. government ->

usatoday.com/in-depth/news/…
@USATODAY The inquiry inserts DOJ into a chapter of the 1980s drug war that the government had long dismissed as a myth – claims that the U.S. entangled itself with drug traffickers as the Reagan administration illegally armed rebels fighting Nicaragua's socialist government.
@USATODAY Agents and prosecutors have obtained statements from witnesses implicating a CIA operative and a DEA official in the plot to torture and murder DEA agent Enrique Camarena, according to the witnesses, Camarena’s widow and others familiar with the case.

The #FBI's #ArtifactoftheMonth in December 2016 was J. Edgar Hoover's fedora—a style of hat traditionally associated with the iconic G-man image. #TodayOnJ flickr.com/photos/fbi/308…

FBI agent found with "at least one" gunshot wound. FBI declined to comment on "suicide" of agent on dance floor who investigated Clinton Foundation. nypost.com/2019/07/24/fbi… via @nypost
#FBI asked that all photos or videos of the incident be deleted, as dance floor "suicides" are so common (not).
3. With respect to Salvatore “Sal” Cincinelli's death at age 41, the Austin Police were instructed by the FBI to “not release any details of the death to the media”. biblehub.com/leviticus/19-2…

The #FBI is turning 110! Follow along as we remember 11 decades in 11 days. Today we will highlight some of our milestones and significant cases from the early 2000s. #FBI110
In 2000 the #FBI's first Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory opened in San Diego. Today RCFLs across the country provide law enforcement agencies with technical support and training in support of criminal investigations. #FBI110 rcfl.gov
In 2001, following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the #FBI dedicated 7,000 of its 11,000 Special Agents and thousands of support personnel to the PENTTBOM investigation. It remains the largest investigation in FBI #history. #FBI110 ow.ly/6tFt30l6Z8R

In 1940, President Roosevelt gave #FBI undercover agents authorization to gather intelligence about Nazi threats in western hemisphere. Over 7 years, 340 personnel made up the Special Intelligence Service. #FBI110 fbi.gov/history/brief-…
In 1941, the current #FBI seal came into limited use. The prior seal was the DOJ seal w/ extra band for FBI & the motto, “Fidelity, Bravery, and Integrity.” Special Agent Leo Gauthier created a new design, which has been the symbol ever since. #FBI110 fbi.gov/history/seal-m…
Each symbol & color in the #FBI seal has special significance. The blue represents justice. The circle of 13 stars denotes unity of purpose as exemplified by the original 13 states. The laurel leaf symbolizes academic honors, distinction & fame. #FBI110
