This investigation concerned allegations of wrongdoing and improper practices within certain sections of the FBI Lab. These involved some of the most significant prosecutions in the recent history of the Dept., including the World Trade Center and OK City bombings. They implicated fundamental aspects of law enforcement: the reliability of the procedures employed to analyze evidence, the integrity of the persons engaging in that analysis, and the trustworthiness of the testimony by FBI Lab. examiners. The invest. lasted more than 18 months and addressed a large number of allegations; most were not substantiated, but some important ones were.
