Ex-marine suspected of espionage
The FBI is investigating whether a former Marine took classified information from the White House when he worked in the White House.
Marine veteran Leandro Aragoncillo has already been charged in New Jersey with passing classified information about Filipino leaders to current and former officials of that nation, but now they’re furthering the investigation to determine if he also had improper access to classified information while working in Vice President Dick Cheney’s office a few years ago.
Aragoncillo is a naturalized American citizen from the Philippines who worked undetected at the White House for almost three years, was an an FBI intelligence analyst after that, and has admitted to spying while working on Cheney’s staff. Investigators are now asking how he got the job in the first place, when he began spying, and how he avoided being caught for so long.
