Former New York FBI agent Charles McGonigal will plead guilty to work he allegedly did for a sanctioned Russian oligarch after leaving the government, according to a court order, CNN reports .
Judge Jennifer Reardon, who is overseeing the case, released an order Monday indicating that she had been informed that McGonigal "may wish to change her plea." The judge set a plea hearing for next week.
McGonigal was accused of his ties to Oleg Deripaska, a Russian billionaire who is sanctioned by the United States and was criminally charged last year for violating those sanctions.
Oleg Deripaska was sanctioned for meddling in the 2016 US presidential election.
On the same day, McGonigal was charged with concealing $225,000 she allegedly received from a former Albanian intelligence operative.
Regarding the Albania case, last week at a court hearing in Washington, McGonigal's attorney, Seth DuCharme, told the judge overseeing that case that there was a "good chance the case would be resolved" without having to go to trial. .
