So many men and women in the FBI put their lives on the line each day and those agents deserve our admiration. Unfortunately, there is a lot of corruption in the Bureau.
According to Just the News, FBI whistleblowers accused bureau management in different field offices of corruption, cover-ups, and retaliation against rank-and-file agents who attempted to expose it.
Supervisors in Miami, Salt Lake City, Buffalo, New York, and Newark, New Jersey, are facing whistleblower complaints:
- Forced or coerced agents to sign false affidavits.
- Fabricated terrorism cases to pump up performance statistics.
- Sexually harassed and stalked a female agent.
One of the whistleblowers, a female agent, said supervisors, including FBI Director Christopher A. Wray, ignored her accusations of sexual harassment. She said the bureau suffers from a “mob-like mentality.”
“The FBI is completely out of control, and its culture and structure need to change. Not only is the political bias completely out of control and disgustingly obvious, the FBI knows they will not be held accountable for their illegal behavior and misconduct,” she said in a letter to Rep. Louie Gohmert, a Texas Republican on the Judiciary Committee.

Some of the Complaints
According to the whistleblowers’ attorney, the complaints were turned over to the House Judiciary Committee Republicans and likely will be part of a broader examination of Justice Department conduct.
Another whistleblower, a former employee who worked for the FBI office in Buffalo, told The Times that FBI honchos in Washington focus on the volume of cases to evaluate the special agent in charge (SAC) who runs a field office. That leads some office supervisors to inflate the numbers.
“It’s basically a report card for him, so at the end of his two-year term as a SAC, he gets moved to a better position down in Washington. And everything focuses around his metrics,” the employee said.
“You have to have so many terrorism cases per year in your office, or else you fail,” he said. “So they would come to us and say things like ‘Open up a case. I don’t care if it’s got merit or not. Just open it up. We only have nine, and we need 10 for me to pass.’”
Kurt Siuzdak, a former agent who is now a legal counsel for some of the whistleblowers, has multiple clients in the FBI. He says agents in Salt Lake City were coerced to sign a false affidavit. They were sworn written statements used as evidence in court.
According to the agents’ complaint, Mr. Siuzdak said the affidavit did not accurately describe the facts and gave the wrong impression of the evidence.
“We’ve had them on the school boards issue. We’ve had them concerning Jan. 6,” Jordan said. “Agents are being pressured to label and categorize all cases as domestic violence, extremism.”
Adultery Too
Another former agent revealed that a special agent in charge at the Miami field office is accused of engaging in an adulterous affair. It was with an intelligence analyst who was married to another man from a different government agency.
According to the agent’s complaint, the SAC and the intelligence analyst “took an amorous drive” to celebrate his promotion. They crashed while engaged in a sex act.
Lovely.
