Corbin Collins Rodier, 31, of Orlando, was arrested Thursday, Oct. 15, at CIA headquarters in McLean after allegedly flashing a fake federal ID badge and resisting officers. Rodier faces four federal misdemeanor charges, according to court documents first reported by Patch.
The arrest marks the second security breach at the agency's Fairfax County compound in less than a week. On Oct. 11, a Kentucky man triggered a bomb squad response after following an authorized vehicle through a security barrier, as Patch previously reported.
Rodier's charges include trespassing, failure to comply with officers, resisting or impeding federal officers and possessing a false federal identification badge. All four are misdemeanors.
According to a sworn affidavit filed in U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Rodier arrived at the CIA's visitor control center entrance around 5:45 a.m. and began unloading bags and boxes from a vehicle in a restricted traffic lane. A CIA police officer monitoring security cameras spotted him removing items from the back seat and trunk.
Officers approached and Rodier initially presented what appeared to be a Department of Veterans Affairs identification card before providing a Florida driver's license, the affidavit states. The Department of Veterans Affairs later confirmed Rodier was not an employee and that the card was not an authorized credential.
Rodier indicated he was nonverbal and used a communication device to speak with officers. Through the device, he said he had come to the CIA because he wanted to be the "Speaker of the CIA," according to the affidavit.
When an officer turned to speak with a colleague, Rodier allegedly walked toward the visitor control center and main gate, ignoring repeated commands to stop. Two officers grabbed his wrists to handcuff him, but Rodier tensed his body and all three fell to the ground, the affidavit states. Investigators allege he pulled his arms away and tucked them beneath his body.
It took six officers to handcuff him.
Another officer used a collapsible baton to free Rodier's arms during the struggle. Officers noticed a folding Swiss Army knife slipping from his pants pocket and recovered a Leatherman multipurpose tool and two cans of mace, according to the affidavit.
Rodier made his initial appearance Oct. 15 before U.S. Magistrate Judge William E. Fitzpatrick in Alexandria. Prosecutors sought his detention, and Fitzpatrick ordered him held in U.S. Marshals Service custody. A detention hearing was held on Tuesday, Oct. 20, but court records do not include the outcome.
The case remains pending in the Eastern District of Virginia. Residents can report suspicious activity near federal facilities to the FBI's Washington Field Office at 202-278-2000.
