McGonigal Investigations/US Report: Undermined FBI Integrity and Public Trust

The US Department of Justice has released details from the investigative file of former Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent indicted, Charles McGonigal.

Based on the details of the investigations, the evidence provided shows that McGonigal engaged in misconduct at the expense of a multi-year criminal investigation and undermined the integrity and credibility of the FBI in violation of the FBI Criminal Code.

Excerpts from the report's conclusions:

Based on evidence provided by the FBI NY and SDNY USAO, ZIP's interviews of FBI case agents and supervisors who handled the CEFC investigation, and McGonigal's own admissions during his November 17, 2023 deposition, ZIP concluded that McGonigal: engaged in disgraceful conduct at the expense of a multi-year criminal investigation and undermined the integrity and credibility of the FBI in violation of the FBI Criminal Code.

He also willfully disregarded his supervisory responsibilities in violation of the FBI Criminal Code, misused sensitive and non-public case information for his own private benefit and that of another in violation of Article 5 of the Standards of Ethical Conduct, the FBI Criminal Code, and the FBI Ethics and Integrity Program Policy Directive; and made unauthorized disclosures of LES information to Person B in violation of FBI Policy LES.

McGonigal's actions, while he served as a senior FBI official charged with overseeing sensitive counterintelligence and crime matters, were egregious and dishonored the FBI's core values ??of integrity, accountability, and leadership expected of all FBI personnel.

Through his scheme, McGonigal intentionally undermined an important criminal case, violated the public trust, and compromised the integrity of the FBI. / CNA
