'Gag' order: FBI confirms special secrecy agreements for agents in Clinton email probe | Fox News

'Gag' order: FBI confirms special secrecy agreements for agents in Clinton email probe | Fox News:


"A recently retired FBI agent, who declined to speak on the record, citing the sensitivity of the matter, said a "Case Briefing Acknowledgement" is reserved for "the most sensitive of sensitive cases," and can have a "chilling effect" on agents, who understand "it comes from the very top and that there has to be a tight lid on the case." 

The former agent said the agreements can also contribute to "group think" because investigators cannot bounce ideas off other agents, only those within a small circle."
