Research Update

The research I have completed includes the following: transcripts of speeches to various law enforcement, academic, and governmental entities by high ranking FBI officials including the director, deputy director, and assistance director for the counterintelligence division. In addition I have accessed historical overview information from the FBI office of public affairs (OPA). I have reviewed historical FBI poster including the significance of the seal. I have discussed possible topics with my father who served as special agent in charge of counterterrorism in the Chicago division during and post 9/11. Also, I reviewed several books and web sites including the official FBI website.
