A former agent for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations based in Chicago’s west suburbs has been sentenced to more than six years in prison.
In case closely watched within Chicago’s federal law enforcement ranks, a former agent for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations based in Chicago’s west suburbs has been sentenced to more than six years in prison for a litany of corrupt acts, including giving an informant investigation information, stealing money from the agency and drug dealers, and filing false tax returns.
The case against Sabaini “made waves through the law enforcement community,” prosecutors said, and a stiff sentence was needed to “send a distinct and clear message that corruption, dishonesty, theft, and embezzlement within federal law enforcement will not be tolerated.” “Corrupt law enforcement strikes at the heart of our system of government,” Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jared Hasten and Jonathan Shih wrote.
