Disgraced FBI official who probed Trump-Russia ties set to plead guilty to illegally working for Russian oligarch
Disgraced FBI agent Charles McGonigal is slated to take a guilty plea in the case accusing him of illegally working for a Russian oligarch.
All actions by jacka$$es like him need to have anything that they find thrown out bc everything they do is suspect.
Do you know McGonigal was in charge of the investigation into TWA800 - and was the one who put out that it was NOT "“shot down by a U.S. Navy guided-missile ship.” (Richard Russell, a 66-year-old former United Airlines pilot and safety representative for the Air Line Pilots Association said that, as it likely was a "bad actor" within the Navy as a runup to 9 /11).
The investigation was unprecedented in that it was led by the FBI,and done in a way that stopped/prevented/sterilized real routine NTSB investigators processes.
McGonigal was the one who ran the "four-year, $40 million investigation – the longest in the history of the National Transportation Safety Board – board officials concluded an electrical failure ignited fuel vapors in a nearly empty tank in the belly of the jet" Remember the FBI was in charge NOT the NTSB.
Yeah right. Someone LE whom I knew walked the length of the Calverton reconstruction, and said oh it clearly was the vapors, and of course, the lie is in how it was reconstructed. Not one ALPA 747 pilot believed it. Neither did I, and neither did he, but this LE guy had to say that.
Also - someone who remains a hero to me to this day was the chief engineer who quit after the FBI's rseults came in. Said as a man of God he would not put up with that lie.
McGonigal - a seditious crook from way back. Quote me on that.
TWA 800 never smelled right to me. 747s are very reliable, and when was the last time you heard about an electrical fault causing an airplane to blow up? Have you ever heard of such a thing, before or after?
Wow, I didn't know that.
i think that there is a lot more to this guy than we know....

charges including money laundering and violating US sanctions by working for Russian billionaire and business magnate Oleg Deripaska, including trying to get him taken off of the US sanctions list. McGonigal was legally required to report to the FBI his contact with foreign officials, but instead allegedly hid the ties, pursing business and overseas travel that conflicted with his job.
@ProfMJCleveland While lots import. details, fascinating point @15poundstogo discovered: McGonigal hired former Special Counsel Durham's high-level prosecutor. Think about it: If you knew you were in deep trouble & wanted to cut a deal & had info that would help Durham, who do you hire? EXACTLY.
@realjusthuman McGonigal has hired Seth DuCharme, the former US Atty for the EDNY who is now an attorney at Bracewell LLP. Bracewell is Guiliani's old firm and where Barbara S. Jones, the Special Master in the Cohen, Rudy, Project Veritas, and Trump Org cases, is a partner. ('band' connections)
