I do know some FBI agents who I would trust implicitly. Their life is their sense of personal honor and they live that code of honor to a tee. That said I have a real problem with the FBI being run like a typical government agency where CYA is the only rule that counts. I note that I know an FBI agent who is more critical of this incident than I am.

Some of the finest people I have ever known are State and Local Policemen. But, the very worst, most sadistic, hardened criminals I've ever met are also State and Local Policemen.
And, given the "Misprision of Felony" statute, any Cop who knows of a crime committed by another Cop, and who does not report it and hound it for prosecution as they would any other form of criminal rape, is himself guilty of Felony Conspiracy, Aiding and Abetting, and providing refuge to a criminal in that same act.
So, what percentage are criminals? Try "Serpico" (by Frank Serpico) and "The Choirboys" (by Joseph Wambaugh) for starters.
Just for starters.
