Here’s the reason why they are so feared:

Paul Redmond - the guy who wrote this - was mentored by James “Jesus” Angleton, who was probably the most successful, most ruthless and most feared mole hunter in the history of intelligence, thus the nickname “Jesus”.

Thank you.

I really appreciate the info.

I knew hat they were aggressive in their search for moles, but I did not know exactly how.

"Jesus" was his middle name, not a nickname. His mother was Mexican. His father met her while serving in Mexico as a cavalry officer under Pershing.
