(whistleblower)
Interests2001 anthrax attacks
An agent who ran the FBI's amerithrax investigation and in 2015 puyblicly claimed that they had no feasible case against Bruce Ivins and that evidence exonerating him had been deliberately concealed.

In 2006, Richard Lambert outlined problems in a formal complaint in 2006 to the Deputy Director of the FBI, John S. Pistole.[1]

Blowing the whistle

On April 2nd, 2015, Richard L. Lambert initiated a lawsuit against US Attorney General Eric Holder, former FBI Director Robert Mueller, the US Justice Department, the FBI, FBI employee Patrick Kelley and unknown Justice Department and FBI employees for legal malpractice and violations of the Federal Tort Claims Act and Privacy Act. "This case was hailed at the time as the most important case in the history of the F.B.I.,” Mr. Lambert said. “But it was difficult for me to get experienced investigators assigned to it."[1]


While leading the investigation for the next four years, Plaintiff’s efforts to advance the case met with intransigence from WFO’s executive management, apathy and error from the FBI Laboratory, politically motivated communication embargos from FBI Headquarters, and yet another preceding and equally erroneous legal opinion from Defendant Kelley – all of which greatly obstructed and impeded the investigation.

From the lawsuit filed by Richard L. Lambert in 2015[2]
