Game of Crimes

Murph welcomes back another old friend and colleague, retired FBI Special Agent Dale Watson. Dale shares his journey from college to the U.S. Army, to joining the FBI. Working his way up through the ranks, Dale became involved in counterintelligence, counterterrorism, and crisis management. He participated in several high-profile investigations including bombings in Oklahoma City, Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia, USS Cole in Yemen, U.S. Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, the anthrax mailings, and the 9/11 terrorist attacks in the U.S. Dale reflects on the need for a proactive approach to terrorism prevention, and the resistance he faced in implementing changes. Dale and Murph discuss the current state of Congress, the importance of accountability in government, the challenges faced by law enforcement, and how Dale continues to serve in retirement.
