The Spy, The Assassin & The Lobbyist
We decided to look at the underbelly of Washington in this week's additions to Bigwig Digs. Where else but DC and its suburbs can you find the residences of spies, corrupt lobbyists, and presidential assassins?
Click through to see:
- The suburban Arlington house where notorious Soviet spy Aldrich Ames lived during his active years of espionage against the US.
- The home of Jack Abramoff, the fedora-donning lobbyist sentenced to prison for corruption in a high-profile conviction last decade.
- The downtown home site of President Garfield's assassin, Charles J. Guiteau, now a popular DC nightclub.
