Über diesen Titel

 The FBI has its own language. It is full of acronyms and expressions that are unique to the FBI. So much so that there is a class at the FBI Academy to familiarize new agents with the FBI's acronyms and terminology. A "First Office Agent" is a newly minted FBI agent who has recently reported to their first office of assignment. While there is supposed to be a probationary period of 1 year during which each First Office Agent spends a lot of time with their assigned "Training Agent", my first office agent experience like many of my fellow first office agents was that we learned by doing and by getting advice from the slightly more tenured other first office agents. First Office Agents have accomplished great things in their careers but there was also a certain amount of "trial and error" and some of those experiences make for some great stories. First Office Agents is based upon my experience as a first office agent in the Memphis Division and those of my good friend, Kevin Cearlock. Kevin and I are two people who find the humor in everything and there were plenty of funny things we experienced firsthand during the the course of our FBI careers. We hope you enjoy hearing about them. Sozialwissenschaften True Crime

  • Complaint Duty: Tin Foil Hats and Elvis’s Love Child

    Complaint Duty: Tin Foil Hats and Elvis’s Love Child
    Aug 5 2025
    FBI field offices serve and are apart of the communities where they are located, what most people don't realize is there is an open communication channel between the FBI and members of the community. Phone calls and walk-ins take place everyday, all day. And when members of the public report suspected crimes, acts of terrorism, or espionage, it's a critically important function and they direct emergency response as the reports unfold. This vital function is referred to as complaint duty, and the person designated to receive complaints serves as the Duty Agent. Duty Agents receive information from the public and from other law enforcement agencies. They assess information, determine what action(s) should be taken in response.

  • Fugitives, Traffickers and ER Docs

    Fugitives, Traffickers and ER Docs

    The FBI has jurisdiction when felons cross state lines to evade prosecution, referred to as Unlawful Flight to Avoid Prosecution or UFAP. Arrests require careful planning. And yet the Yiddish proverb: “people plan, God laughs” often fits. Working civil rights cases against sworn police officers and deputy sheriffs was stressful and challenging especially since in a small FBI field office like Memphis, you may end up working alongside some of those same police officers working a bank robbery, a kidnapping or a fugitive case as Kevin and I both did. Although all three of these topics and very serious and potentially very dangerous, my partner and I managed to find the humor in just about everything. We hope you do too.

  • Bank Robbery is a Very Stupid Crime

    Bank Robbery is a Very Stupid Crime

    Today’s episode is the continuation of a new series in which my former FBI Colleague Kevin Cearlock and I explore the funnier side of the FBI based on our own experiences and our friends. Law enforcement is full of great story tellers. Hard to say whether storytellers tend to become law enforcement officers in disproportionate numbers or, perhaps more likely, it’s the fact that ridiculous things sometimes happen during the course of one’s law enforcement career and they can make for some great stories. Some of the best stories Kevin Cearlock and I have relate to bank robberies, and this episode shares one of my favorite stories witnessed first-hand.
