Reference for the new section: Shea has been indicted along with Steve Bannon and two others for fraud - https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/7040959-U-S-v-Brian-Kolfage-Stephen-Bannon-Et-Al.html DTinAZ (talk) 14:14, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I believe this is a different Timothy Shea. The DOJ press release states the indicted Timothy Shea is 49 years old and from Colorado. This Timothy Shea is 59 according to this WaPo article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/legal-issues/us-attorney-timothy-sheas-role-in-roger-stone-sentencing-storm-remains-in-question/2020/02/14/947c6c30-4dc8-11ea-9b5c-eac5b16dafaa_story.html and he is from Mass.

Ah, thanks -- good catch. Bannon and Kolfage being involved makes sens, but not the DEA Admin, etc. The first "breaking news" article on the Bannon indictment I saw this morning was from CNBC, and they made the false Timothy Shea connection. They've just posted a correction to their story. DTinAZ (talk) 15:01, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
