Brian JeffreyRaymond’s sentencing comes amid a reckoning on sexual misconduct at the CIA. Yet the full extent of sexual misconduct at the CIA remains a classified secret in the name of national security.
By Jim Mustian and Joshua Goodman, Associated PressThe seal of the Central Intelligence Agency stands next to a U.S. flag at CIA headquarters in Langley, Va.
He would lure women he met on Tinder and other dating apps to his government-leased apartment and drug them while serving wine and snacks. Once they were unconscious, he spent hours posing their naked bodies before photographing and assaulting them. He opened their eyelids at times and stuck his fingers in their mouths.
Reading from a statement, Raymond told the judge that he has spent countless hours contemplating his “downward spiral.” And yet the full extent of sexual misconduct at the CIA remains a classified secret in the name of national security, including a recent 648-page internal watchdog report that found systemic shortcomings in the agency’s handling of such complaints.
But a veil of secrecy still surrounds the Raymond case nearly four years after his arrest. Even after Raymond late last year, prosecutors have tiptoed around the exact nature of his work and declined to disclose a complete list of the countries where he assaulted women.
