The Washington Post reports today that Patrick Nagle, of Marietta, Georgia, pled guilty last week in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island to conspiracy to commit bribery. Nagle was formerly the Chief Executive Officer of Advanced Solutions for Tomorrow (AST), which was awarded contracts by the U.S. Navy. The prosecution alleged that Nagle paid inflated invoices by two subcontractors who were given work on Navy contracts by AST. The charges against Nagle allege that the kickback scheme cost the Navy between $7 and $20 million.
