A Tipoff By The Secret Service Blew Up The Federal Probe Of Alleged Imposter Duo [View all]

Before federal agents stormed a luxury apartment building in D.C. last week, the suspects accused of impersonating federal agents already knew they were under investigation.

They had been tipped off by the Secret Service two days earlier.

That misstep by the government has gotten its case off on the wrong foot, rushing prosecutors into a series of embarrassing errors and miscues.

Under the gun by an error of the government’s doing, prosecutors have been scrambling to recover. It hasn’t been pretty.
