Federal government seeks juror from trial of former DEA agent Joseph Bongiovanni

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) – The federal government is looking to talk to one of the jurors from the trial of former DEA agent Joseph Bongiovanni.

The jury found Bongiovanni guilty earlier this month only on lesser charges of obstruction of justice and making false statements.
