Judiciary

Federal judges who presided over the case and were the subject of defense motions.

Prosecution

Federal prosecutors of record in United States v. Nichols.

AUSA Douglas Brasher

Assistant United States Attorney · U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia

Federal prosecutor of record in United States v. Nichols. Pre-plea, on the record, told the court the government had no idea who "1% Watchdog" was and doubled down that Marcus DiPaola was not a federal agent, not affiliated with the FBI, not affiliated with the feds. A year and a half after Ryan was sentenced, public-record archive surfaced of Marcus DiPaola self-identifying as an FBI Chicago field office informant during the exact years he was inside Ryan's rescue organization. The denial of that disclosure is the Brady violation on the case record.

AUSA Sarah W. Rocha

Assistant United States Attorney · U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia
