Informant Gunned Down Amidst 5D Violence
posted 8:52 pm Fri April 18, 2008 - Washington
A 24 year-old suspect turned informant was shot and killed in Northeast Washington and now his family and the authorities want to know if it was a random act of violence or a planned murder.

His mother, Cleopatria Harris, wonders if his death had anything to do with a federal fraud case.
Police stopped her son and found 20 credit cards and eight completed passport applications.
According to court documents, Leiutenant Harris told police he and someone inside the State Department were taking information off passport applications, which they used to get fraudulent credit cards.
Another conspirator, inside the Postal Service, intercepted the cards before they could get to the actual people.
Leiutenant Harris was in court for that case three days before his murder. “He felt like he was going to do jail time. He was willing to do jail time.”

Police are investigating the murder, while State Department Diplomatic Security, Secret Service and the Postal Inspector are all investigating the fraud case. The only comment from law enforcement was that it’s an ongoing investigation.
A pdf document of the (tinted windows) 3/25/08 complaint is available at restornu’s link #58.
