On May 1, 1988, Tom Pappas, chief of staff to then-U.S. Representative Roy Dyson, jumped to his death after allegations from staff members led to implications that he was in a homosexual relationship with Dyson. Following the suicide, Dyson's office was linked to illegal contributions and bribes for the defense subcontractor, Unisys, to receive favorable appropriations contracts through Dyson's position on the Defense Appropriations Committee. The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Operation Ill Wind resulted in the conviction of key Department of the Navy Political Appointees who had close ties to Pappas and Dyson.
