FBI Special Agent Adam Lee on FCPA probes: ‘We use all of the techniques available to us’ 

After obtaining judicial consent based on the overarching concerns for the safety and security of citizens, the FBI expects not only to get the time-honored access to a suspect's home (arguably their most private realm of all), "but, yes, to their cell phone too," he said.

I then asked Lee if the FBI was still using investigative techniques like electronic surveillance and undercover agents, as some have questioned whether the FBI and DOJ have dialed things back a bit after the Africa Sting case.

"That's a fair question, but, no. We use all of the techniques available to us, trying the least intrusive ones to get the results we need first. We need probable cause, of course, and need to balance constitutional protections, but we are not holding back any of our resources or technical tools."
