Special Agent Eduardo Valdivia, 40, is facing ten counts, including two of second-degree rape. Court records indicate the incidents happened in May and September of this year.
Valdivia is now suspended from the FBI pending the outcome of this case. He is scheduled to appear for a bond hearing in district court on Tuesday, Nov. 26.
This is not his first brush with the law. In 2020, prosecutors charged Valdivia with attempted murder in an off-duty shooting on a metro train in Bethesda, Maryland. A Montgomery County jury found him not guilty in that case in 2022.
