A former FBI agent has now plead guilty to destroying key evidence connected to the corruption trial of a state senator.

As KATV reports:

In a plea deal filed Wednesday, a former FBI agent pleaded guilty to paying a business to “wipe” his computer to make the hard drive unavailable for forensic examination.

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.”

The agent could now face up to 20 years in prison for his crimes.

  1. I am hoping more FBI agents step up and do the Correct thing
    by telling the Truth on all the SWAMP Lies which have entangled
    some of them as…

  2. You have to go after the people who told the agent to get rid of the evidence. If not we taxpayers have to pay for his room and board. Nothing changes.

  3. Exact same thing Hillary Clinton did, she was instructed to turn in cell phones and hard drives and what she did was “DESTROY THE CELL PHONES AND HARD DRIVES, SMASHED THEM UP THEN BLEACHED WASHED THEM….DESTROYING EVIDENCE,,,,,FBI, CIA AND THE DOJ ARE RAN BY THE LONG ARM OF THE COMMUNIST CHINESE GOVERNMENT…JOE AND HUNTER OWE THEM

  4. Why is Hitlery Clinton not charged for her crime of destroying evidence by having her server erased using “Bleach Bit”. She also destroyed phones, shredded government documents and had classified documents. ?????????
