According to court documents, former agent Robert Cessario was charged with “corrupt destruction of record in an official proceeding” in connection to the corruption trial of former state Sen. Jon Woods of Springdale.
In the plea deal, Cessario stated: “I erased the contents of the computer hard knowing that the court has ordered that the computer be submitted for a forensic examination. I did so with the intention of making the contents of the computer’s hard unavailable for forensic examination. At the time, I knew that the contents of the hard drive were relevant to an official proceeding, that is, Cause No. 5:17-CR-50010, United States v. Woods et al. I corruptly performed and had performed, the erasures with intent to impair the integrity and availability of the computer hard drive and its contents for use in that official proceeding.”
Agent Robert Cessario was given a court order to turn over his computer. He knew there was evidence on there that might prove the innocence of a criminal suspect. So, he had someone wipe the hard drive to cover it up.
They’re hopelessly corrupt. They’ve been corrupt for almost 100 years.
Why is the FBI even continuing to receive money from American taxpayers?
