‘Nine Fingers’ also linked to Wilkes.

Harper’s Ken Silverstein: “Two former CIA officers told me that Foggo, Bassett [aka "Nine Fingers"], and a third man — a CIA official close to Goss, whose name I learned but am withholding because he remains undercover — have been friends for years and worked together overseas. According to these two sources, Bassett and the undercover officer (whom Goss brought up to the 7th Floor at Langley when he took over the CIA) positioned Foggo to be picked by Goss for the number-three slot. Perhaps more importantly, I’m told that Bassett, like Foggo, has connections to [corrupt defense contractor Brent] Wilkes.”
