Ada, I do call them rogues, since I believe there are bad ones in any agency. I know 2 men who went to the FBI, straight from the Army, and there is no way I believe they are like Rogers and Jamar; further, believe there are many other good agents in the FBI. It bothers me that some posters insist on lumping then all together and either imply, or outright state the entire Govt law enforcement are corrupt and/or incompetent.

You do make a good point, but if you recall, there was recently an agent who wanted to testify before Congress, but reluctant to do in open hearing. I recall there was to be an executive session where he may tell what he knows. With a new director maybe some of the rot that is still on board will be dumped.

You can decide from their results whether they are corrupt and incompetent.

There is the same code of loyalty that we see in the police department--not all of them are on the take, steal from drug dealers, drink while on duty, etc., but most will not turn in those who do. The few that do will suffer. Loyalty to the group supercedes responsibility to the people they are supposed to be serving.
