> FBI Director Chris Wray made no excuses and said the bureau had fired one of the agents who had falsified the details of Maroney's 2015 interview about the abuse. I remember there was another FBI agent falsified evidence in Trump investigation. Found it: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/kevin-clinesmith-fbi-trump-russia-john-durham/2020/08/14/2f579994-de26-11ea-809e-b8be57ba616e_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/kevin-cline... Now Durham is going to charge a former federal prosecutor of making a false statement to the F.B.I. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/15/us/politics/durham-michael-sussmann-trump-russia.html https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/15/us/politics/durham-michae... As citizens, we usually put great trust in high level law enforcement persons. It seems many of them do not deserve the trust.

It is somehow comforting (in a strange way) to read that these people got caught and are being brought to justice.

  What kind of logic is this? The people got caught did get caught. It does not indicate all of them got caught. Also, those people got caught for falsifying one piece of evidence, but it does not mean they only did once in their career. There are just too many things can’t be verified anymore.

    Well, there are so many examples of people getting away with what they did, to read the opposite gives a counterweight to the doubting of justice.

If you trust high level law enforcement then you don't know high level law enforcement. They wrote a suicide letter for MLK in the 60s... and 50 years later not much has changed. It's been rotten since day 1 and somehow we keep trusting them to solve their own problems.

The FBI was originally founded by Hoover to persecute political dissenters. It's focus on crime only came later.
