“Is that all you remember?”
“Yes, it is.”
“Do you have any idea why Ambassador Stevens recorded these calls?”
“Sir, I have no idea if he recorded all of his calls as a matter of practice, or just these.”
“Agent, what did you do with the circuit board?”
“I hand carried it in a diplomatic bag to Langley. I flew on an AF plane to Germany where I boarded a CIA Gulfstream, which took me to Dulles. I was met at Dulles and taken directly to Langley.”
“Did you discuss what you heard on the memory chips with anyone?”
“No, I assumed it was highly classified.”
“Why did you assume that?”
“Because it was an Ambassador’s calls to the Secretary of State and the Pentagon.”
“Very good.”
“Do you know the current status of the circuit board and memory chips holding the recordings?”
“Of course not. I was ordered to hand carry them to Langley. I did that. My task was completed.
“It’s your testimony that you haven’t told anyone what you heard.”
“That’s correct. That information will go to the grave with me.”
“That it will agent that it will.” Linda sat in shock as she watched the interrogator pull a small silenced gun out from his coat and shoot Agent Abrams in the head. Saying, “That it will agent that it will. I’m sorry. You shouldn’t have listened to the recording.”
Linda sat back in her chair. She’d never seen anyone shot like that before. Not only that, the story the agent told was completely different from the story of the events the President and the Secretary of State told the nation after the killing of Ambassador Stevens. Linda sat silently inside her security curtain for a few minutes. She fought with herself about the video she just watched. She decided to save the video, her next file, which is attached to the video file in the recordings from Ambassador’s phone. The very same recordings which got Agent Abrams killed. She sat shaking in her chair. She knew no one could see her monitor; she was wearing headphones so no one could listen in on the recording. But she didn’t feel safe after watching and listening to the files.
She decided to first run a classified search for CIA agent Jason Abrams. She typed in her access ID and her TS/SAP numbers and hit enter. She was rewarded with a message,
“No such agent present or previously employed by the CIA, nor any government agency or contractor.”
She changed the parameters of the search, this time including civil and legal records. She was rewarded with a screen saying,
“No such person found in the data files. Please confirm name and date of birth.”
Linda knew the NSA and CIA had erased agent Abrams from existence. They didn’t simply kill him: he never existed. Without a body and with no record of his ever have lived, it would be impossible to prove the NSA and CIA did anything wrong. The only proof was the video and audio file sitting in a folder on the monitor in front of her.
