DIGITAL EXTRA: Retired special agent says FBI recruits spies on college campuses

Ken Williams was an FBI special agent for 30 years. He became well-known for writing the “Phoenix Memo,” which advised the FBI of a possible coordinated effort by Osama bin Laden to send students to the U.S. to attend Arizona civil aviation schools. This was two months before September 11, 2001. Here, Williams talks about how foreign countries send students to universities across the U.S. to spy on research projects, and how the FBI tries to recruit some of these students to work as double agents.

He is a hero among all lines of law enforcement.

No one listened to him and now we are paying the price.

I was interviewed by the FBI in Phoenix by the memo writer. I have a relative who was a CIA deputy director, so they figured I knew the rest of the story......
