The Spy and the Sex Scandal


He seemed just the sort of spy the CIA is looking for to fight the war on terror. Andrew Warren is a 6-foot-4 African-American schooled in the martial arts. Steeped in Middle Eastern history, he is a convert to Islam who speaks six Arabic dialects. He was a natural to be the CIA's top man in Algiers, a North Africa listening post and frequent hotbed of terrorists. He told his friends that he entered the U.S. Foreign Service—his cover story—because he wanted to be "at the center of things."

Last week, he emerged at the center of a lurid scandal deeply embarrassing to the United States. According to an affidavit signed by a State Department security investigator, in the past two years Warren allegedly drugged and then raped two Algerian women. Though the CIA won't confirm it, numerous U.S. government officials acknowledged to NEWSWEEK the revelation, first reported by ABC News correspondent Brian Ross, that Warren was serving in Algiers as CIA station chief.

Warren, who has not publicly commented, has not been charged with any crime. But the affidavit is damning. Two women told investigators that while visiting Warren at his official U.S. government residence in Algiers, Warren plied them with cocktails, which eventually caused them to vomit and pass out. One woman woke up naked in a bedroom and found a used condom in a nearby trash can. The court affidavit describes in hard-core detail how the other victim remembers drifting in and out of consciousness as Warren sexually assaulted her. Warren was called back to Washington last October; during a subsequent search of his Algiers home, investigators found what appeared to be evidence of "tradecraft" more associated with stalkers than spies: multiple computer drives and data-storage devices, a handbook on the investigation of sexual assaults and quantities of Xanax and Valium—tranquilizers that government experts claim are commonly used in date-rape assaults.

Warren is an aspiring author as well as a spy. Eight years ago, he published a pulp thriller called "The People of the Veil." The hero of the book is a U.S. diplomat, based in Algiers, who battles terrorists trying to take over the U.S. Embassy. In a subplot, the hero, Nick Phillips, has an affair with Mariam, a beautiful Algerian woman who shunned Arab men ("because they were too controlling") but fell in love with Nick because he "respected her and treated her as an equal," and who "never pressured her and understood her culture." Speaking anonymously in order to be candid, one of Warren's former instructors at the "Farm," where spies are trained, told NEWSWEEK that Warren was "a loose cannon" whose confidence "bordered on narcissism." Still, he added, people at the agency "are crushed by this." A former academic mentor, Professor William Alexander of Norfolk State University, described Warren as "an incredible person" and said that he had been working on a second novel.

CIA Chief In Algeria Drug Muslim Women, Made Secret Sex Videos


The CIA’s station chief at its sensitive post in Algeria is under investigation by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly raping at least two Muslim women who claim he laced their drinks with a knock-out drug, U.S. law enforcement sources tell ABC News.

The suspect in the case is identified as Andrew Warren in an affidavit for a search warrant filed in federal court in Washington, D.C. by an investigator for the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service.

The affidavit says the first victim says she was raped by Warren in Sept. 2007 after being invited to a party at Warren’s residence by U.S. embassy employees.

She told a State Department investigator that after Warren prepared a mixed drink of cola and whiskey, she felt a “violent onset of nausea” and Warren said she should spend the night at his home.

When she woke up the next morning, according to the affidavit, “she was lying on a bed, completely nude, with no memory of how she had been undressed.” She said she realized “she recently had engaged in sexual intercourse, though she had no memory of having intercourse.”

According to the affidavit, a second alleged victim told a similar story, saying Warren met her at the U.S. embassy and invited her for a “tour of his home” where she said he prepared an apple martini for her “out of her sight.”

The second victim said she suddenly felt faint and went to the bathroom where “V2 [victim 2] could see and hear, but she could not move,” the affidavit says.

She told investigators Warren “was attempting to remove V2’s her pants.” The affidavit states, “Warren continued to undress V2, and told her she would feel better after a bath.”

The alleged victim said she remembers being in Warren’s bed and asking him to stop, but that “Warren made a statement to the effect of ‘nobody stays in my expensive sheets with clothes on.’” She told investigators “as she slipped in and out of consciousness she had conscious images of Warren penetrating her vagina repeatedly with his penis.”

The second victim told investigators she sent Warren a text message accusing him of abusing her and he replied, “I am sorry,” the affidavit says.

According to the affidavit, when Warren was interviewed by Diplomatic Security investigators, he claimed he had “engaged in consensual sexual intercourse” and admitted there were photographs of the two women on his personal laptop. He would not consent to a search or seizure of the computer, leading investigators to seek the warrant.

According to the affidavit, a search of Warren’s residence in Algiers turned up Valium and Xanax and a handbook on the investigation of sexual assaults.

The affidavit says toxicologists at the FBI laboratory say Xanax and Valium are among the drugs “commonly used to facilitate sexual assault.”

“Drugs commonly referred to as date rape drugs are difficult to detect because the body rapidly metabolizes them,” said former FBI agent Brad Garrett, an ABC News consultant. “Many times women are not aware they were even assaulted until the next day,” he said.

The CIA refused to acknowledge the investigation or provide the name of the Algiers station chief, but the CIA Director of Public Affairs, Mark Mansfield, said, “I can assure you that the Agency would take seriously, and follow up on, any allegations of impropriety.”

tate Departmentt Acting Spokesman Robert Wood issued a statement saying, “The U.S. takes very seriously any accusations of misconduct involving any U.S. personnel abroad. The individual is question has returned to Washington and the U.S. Government is looking into the matter.”

U.S. officials were bracing for public reaction in the Muslim world, following the report of the allegation.

“It has the potential to be quite explosive if it’s not handled well by the United States government,” said Isobel Coleman, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who specializes in women’s issues in the Middle East.

“This isn’t the type of thing that’s going to be easily pushed under the carpet,” she said.

Both women have reportedly since given sworn statements to federal prosecutors sent from Washington to prepare a possible criminal case against the CIA officer.

Following the initial complaints, U.S. officials say they did obtain a warrant from a federal judge in Washington, D.C. in October to search the station chief’s CIA-provided residence in Algiers and turned up the videos that appear to have been secretly recorded and show, they say, Warren engaged in sexual acts.

Officials say one of the alleged victims is seen on tape, in a “semi-conscious state.”

The time-stamped date on other tapes led prosecutors to broaden the investigation to Egypt because the date matched a time when Warren was in Cairo, officials said.

As the station chief in Algiers, Warren played an important role in working with the Algerian intelligence services to combat an active al Qaeda wing responsible for a wave of bombings in Algeria.

In the most serious incident, 48 people were killed in a bombing in Aug. 2008 in Algiers, blamed on the al Qaeda group.

The Algerian ambassador to the United Nations, Mourad Benmehid, said his government had not been notified by the U.S. of the rape allegations or the criminal investigation.

Repeated messages left for the Warren with his parents and his sister were not returned.

No charges have been filed, but officials said a grand jury was likely to consider an indictment on sexual assault charges as early as next month.

“This will be seen as the typical ugly American,” said former CIA officer Bob Baer, reacting to the ABC News report. “My question is how the CIA would not have picked up on this in their own regular reviews of CIA officers overseas,” Baer said.

“From a national security standpoint,” said Baer, the alleged rapes would be “not only wrong but could open him up to potential blackmail and that’s something the CIA should have picked up on,” said Baer. “This is indicative of personnel problems of all sorts that run through the agency,” he said.

“Rape is ugly in any context,” said Coleman, who praised the bravery of the alleged Algerian victims in going to authorities. “Rape is viewed as very shameful to women, and I think this is an opportunity for the U.S. to show how seriously it takes the issue of rape,” she said.

And he did the same thing in Egypt some years ago. Many famous women are involved, but... as goes this article...

Do not expect their names to be announced

Do not expect the names of Andrew Warren’s victims to be announced and do not bother yourself by guessing which famous woman was a victim of Warren in Cairo based on the descriptions El Youm 7 published ”famous artist and the famous TV personality in the National TV !!!!!”

The Americans are wise enough not to announce the names or even anything that can refer to these women because they know that they are dealing with an Eastern Islamic society. In fact unlike us most Americans look to the incident as another rock in the way to amend the Islamic-American relations. They are very careful about this. I really respect this because there is no need to throw allegations based on wide vague assumption despite how this incident is important and dangerous from the national security point of view. I know “ or I hope” that the Egyptian intelligence is investigating the matter thoroughly.

Regardless of the tabloid style of the news published in Youm 7 there is a very interesting piece of information that the CIA fears that some of those Arab women were intentionally sent to recruit him , his weakness point is sex ,it is deadly weakness point in the game of espionage beside being a deadly sin. The videos can be the proof ,the ultimate evidence ,if all of these women were drugged then no way there were sent by somebody.

There is another piece of information in Youm 7 report I can’t understand completely ; the Spanish-Algerian victim who reported Warren turned to know him from Cairo ,where her husband was working for some Spanish News agency. Now accordingly she and her husband helped Warren in deceiving those Egyptian ladies in the video films !! This means one thing , they are accomplices in rape crime , this is crime that has its penalty in the Egyptian law if I am not mistaken !! I am bit lost here because such dangerous allegation can make this lady lose her case in front of any court, she knew that he was a sex manic according to this !!??

Warren turned to work in the Gulf before Egypt. He worked in Egypt between 2005-2007.

BY the way Rosa Al Youssef magazine last week published a report in 2 pages about Warren with no mention what so ever that he worked in Egypt and that there are Egyptian women in Warren’s sex home video rape collection !! Provokingly as expect , the report started with these words “We won’t be judgemental, those Algerian women lived most of their lives in the west and thus their traditions are quite different than us concerning their relations with the other sex !!” I thought that Rosa Al Youssef is secular magazine !!

Of course I do not have to guess why they did not publish the parts concerning Egypt despite independent newspapers and magazines published the shocking facts concerning Egypt.
