Cory Voorhis

A mystery surrounding the case of federal agent Cory Voorhis who allegedly accessed confidential information that was used by Republican Bob Beauprez's 2006 Colorado gubernatorial campaign has been solved. A Texas private investigator came forward November 20, saying he was hired by a Republican political committee - The Trailhead Group - to track down information about an illegal immigrant featured in a Beauprez campaign television ad. The revelation coincided with federal arraignment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Agent Cory Voorhis November 20 on three misdemeanor counts of exceeding his authorized access to a government database. Rodgers, director of Gulf Coast AccuSearch, said he asked a friend in the Harris County district attorney's office to use a restricted database, the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), to locate information about the illegal immigrant.
