Right-wing conspiracy theories against ex-congressional IT staffer debunked in plea deal

A former congressional technology staffer who was ensnared in a storm of right-wing conspiracy theories last year on Tuesday pleaded guilty to a minor bank fraud charge but was found innocent of all other accusations, according to The Washington Post.

Federal prosecutors concluded Imran Awan was not guilty of any allegations brought against him by right-wing media outlets and even President Trump, who spent months claiming he stole government secrets and hacked the Democratic National Committee (DNC) server.

“Particularly, the Government has found no evidence that your client illegally removed House data from the House network or from House Members’ offices, stole the House Democratic Caucus Server, stole or destroyed House information technology equipment, or improperly accessed or transferred government information, including classified or sensitive information,”
