CIA Resignation 2004

Kappes was CIA Deputy Director of Operations when he resigned from the agency November 12, 2004, after Patrick Murray — "a former Hill staffer" who was then CIA director Porter J. Goss' chief of staff — "ordered him to fire his deputy, Michael Sulick," Tim Grieve wrote May 9, 2006, in the Salon "War Room". "As the Washington Post at the time," Grieve wrote, "Murray's order to Kappes came after Sulick had confronted Murray about a threat Murray had made to another agency official. [2]

"The threat?," Grieve asked. "That the agency official would be held responsible if anything from the personnel file of the 'newly appointed executive director' made it into the media. And the 'newly appointed executive director'? He wasn't identified in the Post's account back in 2004, but we all know his name now": Kyle Dustin "Dusty" Foggo, who resigned from the CIA May 8, 2006, "amid a corruption probe."
