Fredrick D. Moorefield Jr. -- who serves as the Deputy Chief Information Officer for Command, Control and Communications -- allegedly engaged in dogfighting under the code name "GeeHad," according to a statement from the Maryland U.S. Attorney's office.“Moorefield … and [his] associates used [an] encrypted messaging application to discuss how to train dogs for illegal dogfighting, exchanged videos about dogfighting, and arranged and coordinated dogfights,” the statement read.
Moorefield was allegedly involved in a larger dogfighting conspiracy called DMV Kennels, in what reassembled some sort of dogfighting league, the DOJ said in their statement. A known dogfighter who agreed to cooperate with the government confirmed that Moorefield was engaged in training dogs to fight and wagering on them.
