In October, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s annual report showed violent crime in 2022 fell to its relatively low, prepandemic level. Yet in November, Gallup reported that a record-high 63% of U.S. adults said the “crime situation in the U.S. is extremely or very serious.”

Images: EFE via ZUMA Press/Reuters Composite: Mark KellyRepublicans—and all Americans—have good reason to be angry about the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s many abuses of power.

☆ DOJ issues scathing rebuke of Bureau of Prisons detailing multiple failures that led to Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide
  + stars: | 2023-06-27 | by ( Holmes Lybrand | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
The report indicated the Bureau of Prisons’ failings were troubling not only because they did not safeguard Epstein but also because they “led to numerous questions about the circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death” and denied Epstein’s victims justice. Two guards on duty the night of Epstein’s death later admitted to falsifying records at the time. According to the initial indictment against the two guards, on the night of Epstein’s suicide, both individuals repeatedly failed to complete the required prisoners check during their watch. On the day before he was found dead in his prison cell, Epstein was also allowed by prison staff to make an unmonitored phone call, despite prison policy requiring all phone calls to be monitored. In August 2021, two years after Epstein’s death, the BOP announced it would close Metropolitan Correctional Center, citing the need to improve conditions in the facility.

☆ Porn Zoom bomb forces cancellation of Fed’s Waller event
  + stars: | 2023-03-02 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
A virtual event with Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller was canceled on Thursday after the Zoom videoconference was “hijacked” by a participant who displayed pornographic images. It is an incident we deeply regret,” said Brent Tjarks, executive director of the Mid-Size Bank Coalition of America (MBCA), which hosted the event via a Zoom link. More than 220 participants were on the Zoom call at one point before it was terminated. It came under fire over privacy and security issues, including incidents of “Zoom bombing” in which uninvited users entered and disrupted meetings. In response to the disruptions, Zoom rolled out major upgrades, including end-to-end encryption for video calls.
☆ Jan. 6 Defendant Charged With Plotting to Kill FBI Agents Who Investigated Him

The crowd that gathered outside the U.S. Capitol on the day of the riot. A Tennessee man already awaiting trial for assaulting a police officer during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol was charged again Friday with plotting to kill the federal agents who investigated him and planning to attack the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Knoxville, Tenn., field office. The plan by Edward Kelley, 33 years old, was foiled this past week when a witness gave police an envelope containing what appeared to be a hit list bearing the names of 37 people involved in the investigation into Mr. Kelley’s alleged role in the Capitol assault, federal prosecutors wrote in newly unsealed court records.
☆ Why We Don’t Know If Violent Crime Rose or Fell Last Year
  + stars: | 2022-10-21 | by ( Josh Zumbrun | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Many local law-enforcement agencies aren’t able to report data under the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s new system for collecting crime statistics. Last year, violent crime either rose 6% compared with 2020, or fell 8%—or, you know, settled somewhere in between. That’s according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which released the latest U.S. national crime statistics, compiled from local law-enforcement authorities, earlier this month. If you’ve been confused by the trends in crime and policing—and the debate about them—well, who wouldn’t be with statistics like that?

The text message on Jane Yan’s mobile phone came from a number she didn’t recognize. “Are we going to the salon tonight?” It looked like the kind of mistake that can happen any day. In fact, it was part of a continuing scam that cost U.S. victims more than $429 million in losses last year, according to the Internet Crime Complaint Center, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s clearinghouse for consumer complaints about online crime.
