| Leader of the CIA/Office of Inspector General. Boss of the CIA/Deputy Inspector General. | |
Michael Ruppert termed this job "The #3 position in the CIA"[1] (after director and deputies director). Nevertheless, the office of Executive Director of the Central Intelligence Agency could well lay better claim to that title.
Official Narrative
The Office of the Inspector General (OIG) is relatively independent of the Central Intelligence Agency, allowing it to carry out dispassionate assessments of the propriety of its actions.
Problems
The record of the OIG shows a lack of meaningful independence, as shown most clearly by the 1983 case of Charles A. Briggs. The CIA Inspector General produced a completely falsified statement - the "Briggs affidavit" - designed to throw CIA/US Deep state operator Edwin Wilson under a bis in the Arms for Libya arms deal. When this was perjury was finally revealed, neither Briggs nor anyone of the many top CIA officers who all knew that it was a lie was subject to any legal action.
