FBI Agent Pleads Guilty: destroyed evidence to frame pro-Trump State Senator



Former Arkansas State Senator Jon Woods endorse then-candidate President Trump in 2016; he was the first elected official to do so.

In 2018, the government alleged that Woods obtained funds for a Christian school in the state fraudulently because it was collected under false pretenses. U.S. District Judge Timothy L. Brooks of the Western District of Arkansas sentence Woods to 18 months in federal prison and 3 years of supervised release. He also ordered Woods to pay $1.6 million in restitution.

On August 17, 2022, the lead FBI agent in the case pleaded guilty to destroying exculpatory evidence that could have likely proven Woods' innocence.

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. He paid a business to "wipe" his computer to make the hard drive unavailable for forensic examination, in the spirit of Hillary Clinton, who got away with it.

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.”

Plea deal? This guy should have to serve the time that Woods was sentenced to serve.

But Woods STILL LANGUISHES IN PRISON.

The Court has known about the illegal destruction of evidence the entire time. Woods’ appeal to the 8th Circuit of Appeals before appellate judges Jane Kelly, an Obama appointee, Michael J. Melloy, a Bush Sr. appointee, and Jonathan A. Kobes, a Trump appointee, case# 18-3057 on October 16, 2020, was denied even though the appellate court knew that the FBI destroyed relevant evidence on purpose.

This blatant miscarriage of justice should worry us all, because if they don't like your politics, they're coming for you soon.
