Eric O’Neill is the subject of Universal Studios's feature film, Breach. In February 2001, O’Neill helped capture the most notorious spy in United history, Robert Phillip Hanssen. In the two months preceding Hanssen’s arrest, O’Neill was selected to work with the spy within the newly minted information assurance division, created to protect all classified FBI intelligence. O’Neill was charged with gaining Hanssen’s trust and then using that relationship to slowly draw the traitor out of deep cover. Engaged in a lethal game of spy-versus-spy, O’Neill found himself fighting to bring down Hanssen before the treacherous double agent could destroy him, his family and the nation they are both sworn to serve. O’Neill served as a Special Consultant for Universal on Breach and provided support on all aspects of the film including assisting in writing the screenplay to preparation, prop selection, set design, character development, establishing the FBI culture, on-set consultation and post shooting publicity. O’Neill is a founding partner of The Georgetown Group, a premier investigative and security services firm that conducts sophisticated and discrete investigations, in the areas of litigation support, strategic intelligence, diligence reviews and security consulting. O’Neill has appeared on numerous television shows and radio programs, including ABC’s 20/20 and Nightline, Hardball with Chris Mathews, Fox News Power Player of the Week with Chris Wallace, CNN, CSPAN’s Washington Journal, NPR’s Fresh Air with Terry Gross, ABC’s World News Now, HBO’s First Look, Wealth TV, MTV and Access Hollywood. O’Neill has also been featured in national newspapers, journals, internet forums, vcasts and podcasts. O’Neill is an honors graduate of Auburn University. He earned his Juris Doctor degree from The George Washington University Law School, also with honors. In addition to his work with The Georgetown Group, O’Neill practices Law in Washington DC and is available as a consultant for film and television projects and for speaking engagements.
