The subcommittee met at 9:30 a.m. in room 2226, Raybum House Office Building; the Honorable Don Edwards (chairman of the sub- committee) presiding. Present: Representatives Edwards, Drinan, Matsui, and Ashbrook. Staff present: Thomas P. Breen, counsel; Catherine LeRoy and Janice Cooper, assistant counsel; and Roscoe B. Starek HI, assistant counsel. Mr. EDWARDS. The subcommittee will come to order. We welcome this morning the gentleman from Ohio, the new, and I am sure, valued member of the subcommittee, Mr. Ashbrook. Mr. Ashbrook, we are delighted to have you with us. Mr. ASHBROOK. Thank you. I am delighted to be here. Mr. EDWARDS. Today we begin the subcommittee's first Federal Bureau of Investigation oversight hearing of the 96th Congress. It is, however, the continuation of several years of this subcommittee's efforts to assure that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is carrying out its Federal law enforcement responsibilities in an efficient and effective manner—and perhaps more important, in a manner con- sistent with the laws of this land and the Constitution. One of the most controversial programs within the FBI's juris- diction has been its domestic security/terrorism program. This sub- committee has taken an interest in the evolution of this program ever since it requested the GAO to audit domestic security in 1973. As a result of our efforts and those of other congressional committees, the GAO, the Justice Department, and the FBI itself, vast improve- ments have been made. The FBI now concentrates its efforts m this area of investigation of terrorist activities and leaders of terrorist organizations. From a total of nearly 20,000 investigative matters in the 10 field offices surveyed by GAO in 1974, the FBI's caseload has dropped to only a handful. The investigations are now closely tied to Fecleral violations. The focus of our hearing this morning is going to be somewhat different, however, from what it's been in the past. Today we plan to approach our task from the point of view of our upcoming authoriza- tion responsibility. We would like to know how the money authorized for this program is being spent, how the program operates, what the program has accomplishecf—in other words, how the FBI actually goes about coping with terrorist cases and how well it is doing its job. (1) Last year the Congress authorized an additional $2 million to the Bureau's terrorist program. In its submission to the committee this year, the Bureau admitted it did not need this money. There was a substantial shortfall both in positions and in dollars. We should ex- plore the reasons for this shortfall in an effort to improve the Bu- reau's management of its resources, and the Congress authorization capabilities. We are pleased to have as our witness today, Mr. Donald W. Moore, Jr., Assistant Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation. Mr. Moore, would you be so kind as to introduce your colleagues with you and then unless Mr. Ashbrook has a prelimmary remark— do you, Mr. Ashbrook? Mr. ASHBROOK. NO, sir. Mr. EDWARDS. YOU can proceed. TESTIMONY OF DONALD W. MOORE, JK., ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, FED- ERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION, ACCOMPANIED BY L. CLYDE GROOVER, JR., SEBASTLAN S. MIGNOSA, ROBERT SATKOWSZI, AND PAUL NUGENT Mr. MOORE. TO your right would be Paul Nugent, Bob Satkowski, Seb Mignosa, and Clyde Groover. I do have a prepared statement, Mr. Chairman, that I would like to read for the record, if I may. Mr. EDWARDS. Yes. Please continue. Mr. MOORE. The phenomenon of terrorism mirrors the mobility and complexity of modem society which transcends both national and continental borders. The functions of the terrorism program are formu- lated to assure an effective and timely response to a terrorist incident. Since the majority of all terrorist activities fall within the investigative responsibility of the FBI, the terrorism program must be in a position to respond to terrorist incidents. The mission of the terrorism program is to detect, prevent, and/or react to unlawful, violent activities of individuals or groups whose in- tent is either overthrow the Government; interfere with the activities of a foreign government in the United States; substantially impair the functioning of the Federal Government, a State government, or inter- state commerce; or deprive Americans of their civil rights guaranteed under the Constitution. The approach used to fulfill this mission is a two-pronged investiga- tive effort: The preventive phase, which consists of detection, identi- fication, and collection of evidence for prosecution of terrorists and their groups who have the propensity, inclination, and capacity to engage in terrorist acts; and the reactive phase, which consists of a coordinated preplanning to insure an effective and timely response to a terrorist act through crisis management and intensive investigative eflFort. Terrorist acts continue to be performed in the United States as evidencd by approximately 100 terrorist bombings in 2 of the last 3 years. The number of terrorist bombings for 1978 totaled 52. These activities of terrorists are violent, criminal acts aimed indiscriminately with no regard to innocent victims and are deliberately calculated to yield maximum physical and emotional disruption. 3 The first function of the FBI's terrorism program, domestic terrorist investigations constitute the preventive phase of this

Enemies of freedom come under many guises. Our society today is in a great state of unrest. Many citizens are confused and troubled. For the first time, some are confronted with issues and decisions relating to the rights and dignity of their fellow countrymen, problems which heretofore they had skirted or ignored. We have in our midst hatemongers, bigots, and riotous agitators, many of whom are at opposite poles philosophically but who spew similar doctrines of prejudice and intolerance. They exploit hate and fear for personal gain and self­aggrandizement.

  • Behavioral Science Unit
    Behavioral Science Unit Behavioral Science Unit (BSU) was one of the original instructional components of the FBI's Training Division at Quantico, Virginia. Its mission was to develop and provide programs of training, research, and consultation in the behavioral andsocial sciences for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and law enforcement community that would improve or enhance their administration, operational effectiveness, and understanding of violent crime. The BSU was established in 1972 at the FBI Academy, and was disbanded in 2014. Through its legacy of training, research, and consultation activities, the BSU developed techniques, tactics, and procedures that have become a staple of behavioral-based programs that support the law enforcement, intelligence, and military communities. It is here where the term "serial killer" was coined and where criminal investigative analysis and "profiling" were developed. Many of these programs eventually developed into stand-alone programs, units, and centers such as the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC), Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), Undercover Safeguard Unit, Crisis Negotiation Unit, Hostage Rescue Team, and Employee Assistance Unit. The mission of the BSU was to be the premier unit for developing and facilitating relevant programs of training, research, and consultation in the behavioral sciences for the FBI workforce, including the law enforcement, intelligence, and military communities that will improve their effectiveness in furtherance of the strategic priorities of the FBI. This is accomplished through the creation of innovative bodies of knowledge in specialty areas and applied research on significant behavioral science issues for use in training and consultation in support of academic, program, and operational matters.

  • Characteristics of Residential Adult Learning in the Fbi National Academy Learning Environment and the Impact on Participant's
    CHARACTERISTICS OF RESIDENTIAL ADULT LEARNING IN THE FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND THE IMPACT ON PARTICIPANT’S ATTITUDE OF SATISFACTION By Thomas Catron Christenberry Dissertation Proposal submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY In Human Development (Adult Learning and Human Resource Development) Committee: Dr. Marcie Boucouvalas, Chair Dr. John P. Jarvis Dr. Stephen R. Parson Dr. Letitia A. Combs September 15, 2004 Falls Church, Virginia Key Words: Residential Adult Learning, Adult Education CHARACTERISTICS OF RESIDENTIAL ADULT LEARNING IN THE FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND THE IMPACT ON PARTICIPANT’S ATTITUDE OF SATISFACTION By Thomas Catron Christenberry Dr. Marcie Boucouvalas, Chair Human Development (Adult Learning and Human Resource Development) (ABSTRACT) Using the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) 212th session of the National Academy, a residential adult learning environment, as a case study and the 1996 research on participant’s perception of residential adult learning environments by Dr. Jean Anderson Fleming, this study examined the relationship among the characteristics (overarching themes: detachment and continuity and descriptive themes: building relationships in residence, learning in residence, and individual change in residence) and how this relationship impacts the participant’s attitude of satisfaction with the program. A 33-item Likert scale, developed by the researcher, was used to collect the data from 244 police officers and the Kropp-Verner Attitude Scale was used for measuring the overall participant attitude of satisfaction with the residential learning environment. Demographic data were also collected from the participants to provide an overall profile of the respondents and each police officer had the opportunity to respond to an open-ended question at the end of the survey.

  • Law Enforcement Intelligence: a Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies
    David L. Carter, Ph.D. School of Criminal Justice Michigan State University Law Enforcement Intelligence: A Guide for State, Local, and Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies November 2004 David L. Carter, Ph.D. This project was supported by Cooperative Agreement #2003-CK-WX-0455 by the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Points of view or opinions contained in this document are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the official position or policies of the U.S. Department of Justice or Michigan State University. Preface The world of law enforcement intelligence has changed dramatically since September 11, 2001. State, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies have been tasked with a variety of new responsibilities; intelligence is just one. In addition, the intelligence discipline has evolved significantly in recent years. As these various trends have merged, increasing numbers of American law enforcement agencies have begun to explore, and sometimes embrace, the intelligence function. This guide is intended to help them in this process. The guide is directed primarily toward state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies of all sizes that need to develop or reinvigorate their intelligence function. Rather than being a manual to teach a person how to be an intelligence analyst, it is directed toward that manager, supervisor, or officer who is assigned to create an intelligence function. It is intended to provide ideas, definitions, concepts, policies, and resources. It is a primer- a place to start on a new managerial journey. Every effort was made to incorporate the state of the art in law enforcement intelligence: Intelligence-Led Policing, the National Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan, the FBI Intelligence Program, the array of new intelligence activities occurring in the Department of Homeland Security, community policing, and various other significant developments in the reengineered arena of intelligence.

    THE POWEROFPEOPLE THE POWER OF PEOPLE BUILDING AN INTEGRATED NATIONAL SECURITY SECURITY NATIONAL AN INTEGRATED BUILDING PROFESSIONAL SYSTEM FOR THE 21ST CENTURY THE 21ST SYSTEMFOR PROFESSIONAL BUILDING AN INTEGRATED NATIONAL SECURITY PROFESSIONAL SYSTEM FOR THE 21ST CENTURY November 2010 This is an independent study, required by Section 1054 of Public Law 111-84-84, and it does not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Government. THE POWER OF PEOPLE: BUILDING AN INTEGRATED NATIONAL SECURITY PROFESSIONAL ST SYSTEM FOR THE 21 CENTURY November 2010 II About the Project on National Security Reform The transpartisan Project on National Security Reform (PNSR) was established to assist the nation in an urgently needed transformation of the national security system. PNSR has differentiated itself in many ways, especially by its vision for a future national security system, from numerous prior efforts that sought to rethink national security for the 21st century. PNSR envisions a collaborative, agile, and innovative system that integrates all elements of national power – both vertically and horizontally – and successfully addresses security challenges based on timely, informed decisions and decisive action. PNSR has developed a network that touches the broad spectrum of public and private-sector partners and participants that are critical to traditional and nontraditional security threats and opportunities. Whereas the first phase of PNSR’s work focused on identifying problems and developing recommendations, it subsequently has focused on development of tools for actual implementation and applying its holistic principles for long-term reform to many of today’s challenges. This unique focus has provided a deeper understanding of the challenges.
