The FBI isn’t as interesting a subject as it used to be. The ideals that once might have shaped the organization — and the intrigue that once made espionage kind of glamorous — have since been tainted by decades of controversy.

A little over a decade though, there was still a hope (however naive) that such a flawed system could be reformed from within.
