Talk:Special agent
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Who is the Current direeector of the FBI
- Robert S. Mueller, III
"ICE Special Agents are not limited to operating at or near ports of entry, but instead can operate anywhere in the US and even enforce US law and international treaties overseas."
- It seems that although they may be given the authority to, I highly doubt other countries allow the US to enforce its own laws outside US Borders. Perhaps a re-wording? I do not know the exactly what is correct in this situation - Misha
[edit] Special Agent v Agent
Shows like X-Files, Without A Trace, NCIS seem to differentiate between "Agents" and "Special Agents", with the latter being in charge. Is this accurate? Rojomoke 13:34, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
The title special agent refers to criminal investigator positions. Special agents are not restricted to being supervisors. In the federal realm, the title special agent applies to anyone classified as job series 1811. Sometimes support personnel employed in non-criminal investigative positions such as intelligence analysts or linguists may be referred to as 'agents' but it is not exclusive to support personnel as sometimes special agents use the term 'agent' when referring to themselves as well. Special Agents in supervisory positions go by the title 'SAC' or Special Agent in Charge, 'ASAC', assistant special agent in charge and below them you have group supervisors.
