FBI agent sentenced in abduction of girlfriend

A FBI agent who once headed up the bureau's Toledo office will be going to prison for 6 years after being sentenced March 12. A further decade sentence was suspended.

The prison time is part of a ten-year suspended sentence handed down Tuesday in Arlington County Circuit. Carl Spicocchi, 55, pleaded guilty in December two counts of abduction and using a firearm while committing a felony.He was on a temporary assignment in Washington at the time of the attack last August at the woman's apartment in Crystal City.

Court records say Spicocchi believed the woman was cheating on him. The woman told authorities she was held for six hours and was wrapped in tape, dragged by her hair, beaten and threatened with a knife and a gun before she escaped.
