CHICAGO — A deputy U.S. marshal was convicted Tuesday of violating the secrecy of the federal government’s witness protection program by leaking information about a key witness cooperating in a Chicago mob investigation.

Deputy Marshal John T. Ambrose, 42, was acquitted of two charges of lying to federal agents.

The veteran fugitive hunter is the only person in the 39-year history of the ultra secret Witness Security Program to deliberately violate its security safeguards.
