  I’d like to thank Jeffrey Heinze, CYD, FBI, for his invaluable input during
  the creation of this story. Jeffrey works for the FBI’s Office of Public
  Affairs and was good enough to answer my many questions, enabling me to give
  an accurate representation of the Bureau’s procedures.
  
  
  
  
  
  I also want to extend my gratitude to Scott Bury for editing this piece, and
  to Kath Middleton, Kath Brink,
