Former Fox News analyst Wayne Simons was a lot of things, but a CIA agent likely wasn’t one of them.
The Washington Post reports that the former professional football player and drug trafficker lied about a career as a spy, according to the CIA.
Simons, who said he spent 27 years as an agency operative, is expected to be sentenced this morning for perpetuating fraud and illegal firearm possession. Prosecutors are asking for a three-year prison sentence.
Authorities investigated Simmons’ life and career and found no evidence he worked as a spy.
