The Detroit FBI hired a cleaning service to clean their office, but the man sent to the building took photos and exposed some of the agency's intel on social media.
According to The Detroit News, 22-year-old Anthony Cassani was hired early on in the pandemic to clean the downtown FBI Detroit office. The FBI had left an organization chart of a local street gang on the wall. A sentencing memo alleges that Cassani took a photo of the chart and posted it on Instagram.
The documents state Cassani recognized the name of the gang from the organization chart. The photographed chart displayed the names of the members and exactly where they ranked within the gang.
Members of the gang on the chart, as well as other Detroit street gangs, did get a hold of the photos, "thereby depriving the FBI of the full benefit of its use," the documents reported.
Cassani does have a criminal record. His record consists of a handful of criminal convictions, two of which involved theft.
The FBI noted that their investigation had not been compromised from the photo, but Cassani is still being charged with a misdemeanor for theft of government property less than $1,000.
Cassani's sentencing is set for next week.
