Reporters have been poring over the indictments against Kyle "Dusty" Foggo and Brent Wilkes. They are looking for clues about other members of Congress. The Hill thinks it has found some interesting information about the direction in which prosecutors are heading:

Indictments handed down to two major allies of former Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham (R-Calif.) earlier this week provide clues about other evidence and material federal prosecutors are seeking from Congress and which members could face more legal trouble in the wide-ranging bribery investigation.

In between the more lurid details about prostitutes, hundreds of thousands in cash payments and luxurious trips to Hawaii and Coeur d’Alene, Idaho included in the indictments of defense contractors Brent Wilkes and his longtime friend, former top-ranking CIA official Kyle “Dusty” Foggo, are eight references to letters Cunningham sent members of the Appropriations, Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and Armed Services committees requesting tens of millions of dollars in contracts for Wilkes’ companies. Cunningham served on each of the panels.

The indictments do not include the panels’ responses to these requests; and that is, in all likelihood, because prosecutors were having a difficult time convincing Congress to hand over the relevant records – until recently. In December, the U.S. Attorneys office in San Diego issued a series of subpoenas for records to the three committees. Also late in the year, prosecutors served subpoenas for testimony to two key staffers: one who worked as Cunningham’s executive assistant and another who worked for the Appropriations Defense subcommittee, which was chaired by Rep. Jerry Lewis (R-Calif.) during many of the time periods in question.
