ARLINGTON, Va. (AP) — A former FBI supervisor who once headed the bureau's Toledo, Ohio, office pleaded guilty Tuesday to abducting a girlfriend, holding her captive and forcing a gun into her mouth in a jealous rage.

Carl L. Spicocchi, 54, who was on a temporary assignment in Washington at the time of the Aug. 23 attack in Crystal City, pleaded guilty to two counts of abduction and using a firearm while committing a felony.

"I want to apologize for what I've done, especially to (the victim) for the grief I caused her," a tearful Spicocchi said during the hearing.
