FBI Internal Records on Informant-Supported Prosecutions: Availability and Quantification
REGISTER
- → DERIVED-FROM COINTELPRO: FBI Counterintelligence Program Against Domestic Groups (1956–1971) [file] — This dossier directly examines informant-supported prosecution records; COINTELPRO is the largest documented FBI CI operation and would be the primary source for any aggregate statistics on CI-prosecution linkage.
- → SHARES-EVENT Prosecutions Based on COINTELPRO Infiltration: Convictions, Reversals, and Entrapment Claims [file] — That dossier investigates convictions based on COINTELPRO infiltration and reversals; it directly addresses whether prosecutorial outcomes from CI operations are quantified and documented.
- → PRECEDES FBI Informants in Targeted Organizations: Intelligence Collection vs. Incitement to Illegal Activity [file] — This dossier investigates the operational boundary between lawful CI intelligence gathering and unlawful inducement; understanding prosecution linkages requires first documenting the scale and nature of CI-supported cases.
- → SHARES-EVENT COINTELPRO Authorization Chain and Bureaucratic Approval Mechanisms [file] — That dossier examines FBI bureaucratic approval mechanisms for COINTELPRO operations; internal records quantifying CI prosecutions would be part of the same bureaucratic documentation and oversight structures.
- → SHARES-EVENT COINTELPRO Target Organizations: Criminal Activity vs. Legal Political Organizing [file] — Classification of targets as criminal vs. legal depends partly on evidence types, including CI intelligence; quantitative prosecution records would clarify evidentiary reliance on informant reporting.
- ← DERIVED-FROM Federal Prosecutions Initiated by Informant-Proposed Conduct Since 1980: Scope, Count, and Evidentiary Standards [file] — This investigation asks whether FBI records on informant-supported prosecutions exist; the parent question requires access to those same records disaggregated by informant role (initiator vs. interceptor).
