A former White House aide has been charged with stealing thousands of dollars of federal money that was intended to promote democracy in Cuba, reports the Washington Examiner.

Felipe Sixto was charged with stealing from the Center for a Free Cuba, a non-profit organization, both while he worked there from 2005 to 2007, and after he went to work in the White House last year.

In March of this year, we noted that Sixto had resigned from the White House after the allegations first surfaced. He had been working there as a special assistant to the president in the office of inter-governmental affairs.
