Former CIA official David Rush has reached a plea agreement in principle with federal prosecutors before indictment, according to a Friday court filing. Prosecutors and Rush's lawyer asked a Virginia federal court to extend the indictment deadline to Oct. 8, citing the public interest in conserving government and judicial resources and the potential litigation involving classified material. A May criminal complaint charged Rush with stealing public money through timesheet fraud. The FBI said a search of his Virginia home found 303 gold bars worth more than $40 million, $2 million in cash and 35 luxury watches, many of them Rolexes. Investigators also alleged that Rush misrepresented his education and military service, claimed 744 hours of military leave after his honorable Navy discharge in 2015 and received about $77,000 in compensation. The complaint said he obtained foreign currency and tens of millions of dollars in gold bars for purported work expenses whose intended use his employer could not identify. A federal judge ordered him held in custody in June after finding him a severe flight risk.
