R. James Woolsey, the former director of the CIA under former President Clinton who served a brief embattled tenure, died Wednesday. He was 84.
Woolsey’s wife, Conchita Sarnoff Woolsey, told The New York Times that he died from a stroke in their Washington, D.C., home. She told The Washington Post that Woolsey died of “Havana syndrome,” a mysterious condition that has reportedly afflicted some U.S. diplomats and other government personnel, first reported in Cuba in 2016.
