The Texas man accused of scaling a White House fence and making it all the way inside the building is expected to agree to a plea deal in federal court Friday.
Omar Gonzalez, an Army veteran from Texas, faced federal and municipal charges including unlawfully entering a restricted building while carrying a deadly weapon for the Sept. 19 intrusion, which prompted a review of the Secret Service amid a series of controversies for the protection agency.
Psychiatrists had found that Gonzalez was competent to stand trial. The 43-year-old, who had a pocket knife with him when he evaded multiple layers of security and entered the White House, was also accused of possessing ammunition.
His appearance in federal court in Washington comes amid a new scandal for the famed protection agency, accusations that two top agents drove into a bomb investigation scene on White House grounds after a night out drinking and that a supervisor who wanted them to submit to a sobriety tests was overruled.
President Obama remains confident in the agency and its director, Joseph Clancy, whom he installed in recent months, a White House spokesman said Thursday.
