The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is being accused of drastically mishandling allegations of sexual assault and harassment that occurred within its own ranks, according to a recent report released on April 22 by Congress.
This comes after a whistleblower came forward in January 2023 to say that they had been “physically attacked and sexually assaulted at CIA headquarters” by a fellow officer. Since that time, the bipartisan Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of Representatives has been conducting an investigation into the CIA’s handling of such cases.
