001: Interview with Retired Agent Tom Cotton

Welcome to the first episode of FBI Retired Case File Review with Jerri Williams. I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself. I'm a retired agent writing crime fiction inspired by actual FBI investigations. My debut novel, Pay to Play, about a female FBI agent investigating corruption in the Philadelphia strip club industry, will be published later this year. FBI Retired Case File Review will feature interviews with retired FBI agents discussing their careers and their most intriguing cases. In this episode, I interview Tom Cotton who retired from the FBI more than 20 years ago. He talks about being assigned to six different offices and working a variety of cases involving Soviet spies, bank robbers, mob guys, and corrupt politicians. I'll also discuss crime fiction and dramas - books, movies and TV shows - especially those depicting the FBI.
