FBI agent accused of raping clients in his tattoo parlor goes on trial
On a witness stand three years ago, FBI agent Eduardo Valdivia's testimony hit home with jurors.
Yes, he shot an unarmed panhandler while commuting to work aboard a moving Metro train. But it was an act of self-defense and not attempted murder, Valdivia said, because the man had backed him into a corner and was a threat to take his gun. The agent was acquitted on all counts and resumed active duty.
