When he began suffering under multiple diseases including Parkinsons, diabetes and Alzheimer's, i tried to keep him company over the last decade of his life and helped him long into this website as something he enjoyed during his retirement. He died two weeks ago. I don't feel obliged to give his name or job title because he apparently never did, but he was a senior DOJ/FBI official who assisted in the prosecution of over 200 cases. He also co-drafted several DOJ and White House strategies on transnational organized crime, including the 2011 White House Strategy (with help). Thanks dad, and that's all for me.

I'm sorry to hear that. I absolutely remember him. He was one of my favorite posters. Whether it was doing the lead draft on the 2000 International Crime Threat Assessment or Matty Ianniello being their second biggest target in the 1970s after Frank Tieri, he had unique insights from his profession most wouldn't have.
