| Zusammenfassung: | As a federal prosecutor and the daughter of an FBI agent, Wiehl has an inside perspective. She brings her experience and the ingrained lessons of her upraising to bear on her remarkable exploration of the case, interviewing numerous FBI and CIA agents both past and present as well as the individuals closest to Hanssen. She speaks with his brother-in-law, his oldest and best friend, and even his psychiatrist. In all her conversations, Wiehl is trying to figure out how he did it--and at what cost. But she also pursues questions urgently relevant to our national security today. Could there be another spy in the system? Could the presence of a spy be an even greater threat now than ever before, with the greater prominence cyber security has taken in recent years? Wiehl explores the mechanisms and politics of our national security apparatus and how they make us vulnerable to precisely this kind of threat |

SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY his book represents the culmination of many months and countless hours of research that included multiple, lengthy interviews with many of the key individuals in the Hanssen investigation, and the review of thousands of pages of investigative material and numerous other sources ranging from books to newspaper articles and magazine stories as well as select television news programs, podcasts, public appearances, and symposia featuring prominent players in the Hanssen saga. My aim throughout was to move the Hanssen story forward by uncovering new details through primary sourced materials, including interviews with Hanssen’s best friend, his brother-in-law, his psychiatrist, and others who could lend an enhanced perspective. I sought to go beyond an analysis of the Hanssen case and make a link between Hanssen and an increase in risk to national security today. To do so, I relied extensively on interviews with experts in the field of high technology, security, and forensics. In addition to the individuals named below, I corresponded by email with many current and former members of the FBI who had known Hanssen in some capacity. While many described Hanssen as a problematic employee who left many telltale signs of his treachery behind, all were uniformly shocked to discover that he had been spying in plain sight for much of his twenty-two-year FBI career. T Principal Interviews Current or retired FBI agents, special agents, and supervisors: Anonymous, a still-active FBI agent who worked closely with Hanssen and didn’t trust him.
SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY 284 Anonymous, a still-active FBI agent who worked in the Vault. Dave Brown, called Hanssen “Whispering Bob.” Louis Freeh, director, attended the same conservative Catholic church as Hanssen; their sons also attended the same school. Gwen Fuller, helped build the matrix that originally targeted the wrong suspect. Rich Garcia, Hanssen’s supervisor for the two months after he was identified but before his arrest; had an office constructed for him that was crammed full of surveillance equipment. Jim Lyle, Hanssens supervisor earlier in his career and the Bureau liaison to the CIA at the time of Hanssen’s arrest. David Major, Hanssen’s supervisor, friend, and protector within the Soviet Analytical Unit. Jim Milburn, the first person to identify Hanssen as the spy originally code-named GRAYSUIT. Joe Navarro, a fellow counterintelligence expert; he thought Hanssen “didn’t know how to participate” in the usual Bureau social events. Jim Օհեօո, Hanssen’s longest-standing friend within the FBI; he admired Hanssen’s ability to analyze and solve problems. Eric O’Neill, a surveillance specialist who served undercover as Hanssen’s administrative assistant during the two months before his arrest. Kathleen Puckett, a profiler; Hanssen, she says, has either lost his cognitive skills in prison or he’s faking it. Mike Rochford, central player in Hanssen’s arrest; he headed up Operation pennywise, which found the Russian source who brought Hanssen down even though the Russians never knew Hanssen’s name until his arrest. Kendall Shull, polygraph expert who refused to go
along with the effort to pin Hanssen’s crimes on CIA officer Brian Kelley. I. C. Smith, Hanssen’s supervisor; he found Hanssen “frankly . a loathsome individual.” Don Sullivan, Hanssen’s friend and admirer; he learned Hanssen was the spy only moments after learning that his wife was critically ill with breast cancer. Dave Szady, CIA liaison at the time when blame settled hard on the wrong suspect; he furiously defended the FBI’s performance on a 2003 episode of 60 Minutes. Jack Thompson, one of the Vault People and part of the special unit assembled in 1995 to run graysuit to ground; Hanssen was never among their top suspects. Mark Wauck, Hanssen’s brother-in-law, who would later claim that a decade before Hanssen’s arrest he had wondered aloud to his supervisor if Hanssen was a
SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY 285 spy; carried on an extensive email correspondence with Brian Kelley in the years after Hanssen’s arrest. CIA officials: Mike Süliek, counterintelligence chief who helped provide the $750,000 down payment to Mike Rochford’s Russian source for evidence sight unseen. George Tenet, director; he and Louie Freeh both signed off on the roughly $7 million the Russian source ultimately received, along with relocation to the United States. Others: Anonymous, one of the nation’s leading experts on high-tech security and forensics. David Charney, psychiatrist who interviewed Hanssen twice weekly for an entire year after his arrest. George Ellard, deputy counsel of the commission that produced the devastating inspector general’s report on the FBI’s performance in the Hanssen case. ]ack Hoschouer, Hanssen’s lifelong best friend; he was with Hanssen within a few hours of his arrest and attended his sentencing hearing so Hanssen would know he hadn’t “rejected him totally,” though he’s not sure if Hanssen ever saw him there. Barry Kelley, son of Brian Kelley, the CIA officer who spent almost four years as the lead suspect in the Hanssen case and carried on an extensive email correspondence with Mark Wauck after Hanssen’s arrest. Patricia McCarthy, Brian Kelley’s widow; the investigators, she says, “tried to force a square peg into a round hole.” Scott Shane, New York Times national security correspondent.

SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY his book represents the culmination of many months and countless hours of research that included multiple, lengthy interviews with many of the key individuals in the Hanssen investigation, and the review of thousands of pages of investigative material and numerous other sources ranging from books to newspaper articles and magazine stories as well as select television news programs, podcasts, public appearances, and symposia featuring prominent players in the Hanssen saga. My aim throughout was to move the Hanssen story forward by uncovering new details through primary sourced materials, including interviews with Hanssen’s best friend, his brother-in-law, his psychiatrist, and others who could lend an enhanced perspective. I sought to go beyond an analysis of the Hanssen case and make a link between Hanssen and an increase in risk to national security today. To do so, I relied extensively on interviews with experts in the field of high technology, security, and forensics. In addition to the individuals named below, I corresponded by email with many current and former members of the FBI who had known Hanssen in some capacity. While many described Hanssen as a problematic employee who left many telltale signs of his treachery behind, all were uniformly shocked to discover that he had been spying in plain sight for much of his twenty-two-year FBI career. T Principal Interviews Current or retired FBI agents, special agents, and supervisors: Anonymous, a still-active FBI agent who worked closely with Hanssen and didn’t trust him.
SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY 284 Anonymous, a still-active FBI agent who worked in the Vault. Dave Brown, called Hanssen “Whispering Bob.” Louis Freeh, director, attended the same conservative Catholic church as Hanssen; their sons also attended the same school. Gwen Fuller, helped build the matrix that originally targeted the wrong suspect. Rich Garcia, Hanssen’s supervisor for the two months after he was identified but before his arrest; had an office constructed for him that was crammed full of surveillance equipment. Jim Lyle, Hanssens supervisor earlier in his career and the Bureau liaison to the CIA at the time of Hanssen’s arrest. David Major, Hanssen’s supervisor, friend, and protector within the Soviet Analytical Unit. Jim Milburn, the first person to identify Hanssen as the spy originally code-named GRAYSUIT. Joe Navarro, a fellow counterintelligence expert; he thought Hanssen “didn’t know how to participate” in the usual Bureau social events. Jim Օհեօո, Hanssen’s longest-standing friend within the FBI; he admired Hanssen’s ability to analyze and solve problems. Eric O’Neill, a surveillance specialist who served undercover as Hanssen’s administrative assistant during the two months before his arrest. Kathleen Puckett, a profiler; Hanssen, she says, has either lost his cognitive skills in prison or he’s faking it. Mike Rochford, central player in Hanssen’s arrest; he headed up Operation pennywise, which found the Russian source who brought Hanssen down even though the Russians never knew Hanssen’s name until his arrest. Kendall Shull, polygraph expert who refused to go
along with the effort to pin Hanssen’s crimes on CIA officer Brian Kelley. I. C. Smith, Hanssen’s supervisor; he found Hanssen “frankly . a loathsome individual.” Don Sullivan, Hanssen’s friend and admirer; he learned Hanssen was the spy only moments after learning that his wife was critically ill with breast cancer. Dave Szady, CIA liaison at the time when blame settled hard on the wrong suspect; he furiously defended the FBI’s performance on a 2003 episode of 60 Minutes. Jack Thompson, one of the Vault People and part of the special unit assembled in 1995 to run graysuit to ground; Hanssen was never among their top suspects. Mark Wauck, Hanssen’s brother-in-law, who would later claim that a decade before Hanssen’s arrest he had wondered aloud to his supervisor if Hanssen was a
SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY 285 spy; carried on an extensive email correspondence with Brian Kelley in the years after Hanssen’s arrest. CIA officials: Mike Süliek, counterintelligence chief who helped provide the $750,000 down payment to Mike Rochford’s Russian source for evidence sight unseen. George Tenet, director; he and Louie Freeh both signed off on the roughly $7 million the Russian source ultimately received, along with relocation to the United States. Others: Anonymous, one of the nation’s leading experts on high-tech security and forensics. David Charney, psychiatrist who interviewed Hanssen twice weekly for an entire year after his arrest. George Ellard, deputy counsel of the commission that produced the devastating inspector general’s report on the FBI’s performance in the Hanssen case. ]ack Hoschouer, Hanssen’s lifelong best friend; he was with Hanssen within a few hours of his arrest and attended his sentencing hearing so Hanssen would know he hadn’t “rejected him totally,” though he’s not sure if Hanssen ever saw him there. Barry Kelley, son of Brian Kelley, the CIA officer who spent almost four years as the lead suspect in the Hanssen case and carried on an extensive email correspondence with Mark Wauck after Hanssen’s arrest. Patricia McCarthy, Brian Kelley’s widow; the investigators, she says, “tried to force a square peg into a round hole.” Scott Shane, New York Times national security correspondent.

She brings her experience and the ingrained lessons of her upraising to bear on her remarkable exploration of the case, interviewing numerous FBI and CIA agents both past and present as well as the individuals closest to Hanssen. She speaks with his brother-in-law, his oldest and best friend, and even his psychiatrist. In all her conversations, Wiehl is trying to figure out how he did it--and at what cost.

As a federal prosecutor and the daughter of an FBI agent, Wiehl has an inside perspective. She brings her experience and the ingrained lessons of her upraising to bear on her remarkable exploration of the case, interviewing numerous FBI and CIA agents both past and present as well as the individuals closest to Hanssen. She speaks with his brother-in-law, his oldest and best friend, and even his psychiatrist. In all her conversations, Wiehl is trying to figure out how he did it--and at what cost. But she also pursues questions urgently relevant to our national security today. Could there be another spy in the system? Could the presence of a spy be an even greater threat now than ever before, with the greater prominence cyber security has taken in recent years?
