The Disposable Life of a 20 Year-Old Confidential Informant
On June 27, 2014, the body of 20-year-old
Andrew Sadek, a promising electrical student at the
North Dakota State College of Science (
NDSCS) in
Wahpeton, North Dakota, was pulled from the
Red River bordering
North Dakota and
Minnesota.
Missing for two months, the young man was found shot in the head, wearing a backpack filled with rocks.
The grisly death of a college student in one of the safest towns in the state, where violent crime is extremely rare, did not lead to a sweeping investigation. In fact, police immediately said they did not suspect foul play.
Such a supposition strains credulity as it is, but what would be slowly revealed over the following months is that
Andrew had been working as a confidential informant for the police, and that his school knew that authorities were busting its students and using them as bait to catch drug dealers.
This is a story of overzealous prosecution of minor drug offenses by a task force answerable only to itself, callous official indifference toward a grieving family, and a lack of transparency by authorities that raises more questions than it answers.
Paramount among these questions: Why are police using non-violent, first-time offenders in the very dangerous role of confidential informant?
About 9
.45 minutes.

Anthony L.
Fisher.

NEW TRAILERS: http://bit.ly/1u2y6pr
CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Mark (
Matt Damon) meets with an
FBI agent (
Scott Bakula) and admits to price fixing in the Lysine business.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
A rising star in the agricultural industry suddenly turns whistleblower in hopes of gaining a lucrative promotion and becoming a hero of the common people, inadvertently revealing his penchant for helping himself to the corporate coffers and ultimately threatening to derail the very investigation he helped to launch in this offbeat comedy from
Academy Award-winning director
Steven Soderbergh.
Mark Whitacre (Matt Damon) was fast rising through the ranks at agri-industry powerhouse
Archer Daniels Midland (
ADM) when he became savvy to the company's multinational price-fixing conspiracy, and decided to turn evidence for the FBI. Convinced that he'll be hailed as a hero of the people for his efforts, Whitacre agrees to wear a wire in order to gather the evidence needed to convict the greedy money-grabbers at ADM.
Unfortunately, both the case -- and Whitacre's integrity -- are compromised when
FBI agents become frustrated by their informant's ever-shifting account, and discover that he isn't exactly the saintly figure he made himself out to be. Unable to discern reality from Whitacre's fantasy as they struggle to build their case against ADM, the FBI watches in horror as the highest-ranking corporate bust in
U.S. history threatens to implode before their very eyes. Scott Bakula,
Joel McHale, and
Melanie Lynskey co-star.

13/02/2014
Het is van alle tijden: de politie doet een beroep op tipgevers en informanten. Vaak zijn dat mensen die dicht bij de criminele wereld staan (denk bv. aan portiers van louche nachtclubs) of, doeltreffender nog, met hun twee voeten er middenin.
De politie gaat de informatie halen waar ze zit, het lijkt de evidentie zelve. Hoewel?
Cesare Beccaria vroeg zich in zijn dei delitti et delle pene (Over misdrijven en straffen) in 1764 al af hoe zwak de wet wel niet moet zijn als voor de handhaving ervan een beroep dient gedaan te worden op wetsovertreders? Het moet gezegd, de man had tweehonderdvijftig jaar geleden een principieel punt. En wat te denken van een rechtsstaat die verraad beloont? Maar als het over misdaadbestrijding gaat wordt de discussie vooral pragmatisch gevoerd
. Een rechtsstaat moet niet alleen mooie principes huldigen, hij moet af en toe ook zijn klauwen laten zien, zeker als hij in zijn hart dreigt getroffen te worden, en dat is het geval als het over zware georganiseerde misdaad gaat.
Recenter, in
2003, werd in
België de BOM-wet goedgekeurd.
BOM staat voor Bijzondere Opsporingsmethodes en een daarvan is het werken met informanten. Nog maar tien jaar dus is deze materie in ons land wettelijk geregeld. Om de misdaad efficiënt te kunnen bestrijden mag de politie dus informanten gebruiken. Het is een bijzonder efficiënt middel omdat politie en justitie op die manier een zeer goed zicht krijgen op het criminele milieu en waardevolle tips kan vergaren. 'Het beste zicht is het binnenzicht,' zo vat
Marco Van Laere van de
Federale politie het kernachtig samen.
Niet voor de centen
In de jaarrapporten van de Dienst voor het strafrechtelijk beleid (het jongste dateert van
2011) lezen we dat de laatste jaren ruim 700 premies uitbetaald werden aan gecodeerde informanten. Maar de vraag is of het daarbij blijft?
Want zware jongens zetten natuurlijk niet voor niets twee petjes op. Als een crimineel informatie geeft, wat krijgt hij dan in ruil?
Voor de premie hoeven ze het niet te doen ook al is ze pour le besoin de la cause in het zwart en dus belastingvrij. We kennen geen exacte bedragen (die worden niet publiek gemaakt) maar duidelijk is wel dat je daarvan niet kan leven. En een beetje crimineel werkt bovendien ook in een andere orde van grootte
...
Wat dan wel? Daarover gaan allerlei (wilde) verhalen de ronde. De politie zou de (criminele) informant de facto beschermen om zodoende ook haar bron te beschermen. Criminele informanten zouden daardoor hun criminele handel en wandel ongestoord kunnen verderzetten, ze zouden er in de straftoemeting beter van afkomen, sneller vrijkomen...
.. Of dat allemaal zo is, is moeilijk te bewijzen al zijn er wel concrete gevallen aan te tonen die in die richting wijzen. Het
Openbaar Ministerie heeft immers de bevoegdheid om strafzaken al dan niet te vervolgen en die bevoegdheid kan ook aangewend worden ten aanzien van informanten. Noem het een ruime interpretatie van het opportuniteitsbeginsel.
Schemerzone
En daarmee is meteen ook het pijnpunt in de werking met informanten blootgelegd: het is politiewerk in een schemerzone.
Echt duidelijk is het allemaal niet. En onduidelijkheid staat haaks op een hoeksteen van de rechtsstaat: transparantie.
"Wij doen kennen vernomen te hebben dat...." Zo begint soms een proces verbaal in een strafdossier. Als strafpleiters dat lezen gaan hun knipperlichten aan. De wazige bewoordingen doen vermoeden dat de politie het schimmige werk van informanten wil maskeren en dat zint hen niet. "Het is alsof we een boek lezen maar pas mogen beginnen aan het vijfde hoofdstuk. Waarom krijgen we die eerste vier niet te lezen?", zo vraagt strafpleiter Mounir Souidi zich af. Omdat de BOM-technieken geheim moeten blijven, zo riposteren politie en justitie.
Als we onze volledige modus operandi moeten gaan uitleggen en alle betrokkenen met naam en toenaam noemen, kunnen we de boeken beter sluiten. En zo gaat de discussie over en weer. Het werk met informanten gebeurt op een hellend vlak waar boven en onderwereld mekaar in evenwicht houden dan wel destabiliseren. De balans slaat dan weer eens uit naar het principiële, dan weer naar het pragmatische.
Fantast?
Want de vraag is ook waar de rol van de informant eindigt en die van de provocateur begint? Worden informanten ook dermate gestuurd dat ze eigenlijk burgerinfiltrant worden, wat in België verboden is? En als het middel zo doeltreffend is, moet dan niet juist nog een stap verder gezet worden en gebruik gemaakt worden van de spijtoptant zoals in Italië?
In een land met een Belgisch-Italiaanse premier zou je denken dat dat laatste nog enige kans zou maken. Maar met een eerste minister die ooit zelf slachtoffer werd van zeer ernstige valse beschuldigingen geuit door een fantast, is die optie politiek uitgesloten.
Werken met informanten is weliswaar formeel geregeld, er is natuurlijk ook nog de praktijk, de criminele praktijk...

13/02/2014
Het is van alle tijden: de politie doet een beroep op tipgevers en informanten. Vaak zijn dat mensen die dicht bij de criminele wereld staan (denk bv. aan portiers van louche nachtclubs) of, doeltreffender nog, met hun twee voeten er middenin.
De politie gaat de informatie halen waar ze zit, het lijkt de evidentie zelve. Hoewel?
Cesare Beccaria vroeg zich in zijn dei delitti et delle pene (Over misdrijven en straffen) in 1764 al af hoe zwak de wet wel niet moet zijn als voor de handhaving ervan een beroep dient gedaan te worden op wetsovertreders? Het moet gezegd, de man had tweehonderdvijftig jaar geleden een principieel punt. En wat te denken van een rechtsstaat die verraad beloont? Maar als het over misdaadbestrijding gaat wordt de discussie vooral pragmatisch gevoerd
. Een rechtsstaat moet niet alleen mooie principes huldigen, hij moet af en toe ook zijn klauwen laten zien, zeker als hij in zijn hart dreigt getroffen te worden, en dat is het geval als het over zware georganiseerde misdaad gaat.

One of the FBI's Biggest Secrets: The Informant - A Bizarre Financial Scandal (2000)
The Informant is a true-crime account that takes place in
Central Illinois during the early
1990s at the
Fortune 500 company
Archer Daniels Midland, known as
ADM. ADM is an agri-business powerhouse and one of the largest companies in the world. Its former chairman,
Dwayne Andreas, had extensive political connections to both the
Democratic Party and the
Republican Party and was also connected indirectly to
President Nixon's
Watergate.
Mark Whitacre is the duplicitous hero of the book. Whitacre was a young rising star at ADM where he was president of the bio-products division and corporate vice president of the company. As a result of some very odd circumstances, Whitacre also became the highest-level executive to turn whistleblower in
U.S. history.
One night in early
November, 1992, the high-ranking ADM executive did something extraordinary. He confessed to an
FBI agent that ADM executives—including Whitacre himself—routinely met with competitors to fix the price of lysine, a food additive. Whitacre’s wife, an elementary school teacher, forced Whitacre to become a whistleblower by threatening to go to the FBI herself if he did not inform the authorities of ADM’s illegal price-fixing activities. The meeting between Whitacre and an FBI agent marked the first time a participant in a price fixing cartel voluntarily tipped off law-enforcement officials. After informing the FBI, Whitacre assisted in gathering evidence by clandestinely taping the cartel’s activity in business meetings in locations such as
Tokyo,
Paris,
Mexico City, and
Hong Kong. During Whitacre's undercover work, which spanned almost three years, the FBI collected hundreds of hours of video and audio tapes documenting crimes committed by executives from around the world in fixing the prices of food additives, in the largest price-fixing case in history at the time.
In a stunning turn of events immediately following the covert portion of the case, it was reported in headlines around the world that Whitacre defrauded $9 million from his company at the same period of time he was secretly working for the FBI and taping his co-workers. No sooner did an army of federal agents stage a dramatic raid on ADM's
Decatur, Illinois, headquarters than the company hit back with damning evidence that the government's star witness had his own agenda. Whitacre became delusional and lied extensively to the FBI in a failed attempt to save himself.
The FBI quickly learned Whitacre was suffering from manic-depression, also known as bipolar disorder, with resulting grandiosity and embellishments in full bloom. Worst of all, Whitacre told stories to the media about
FBI agents trying to force him to destroy some of the tapes (stories he later recanted). The Informant focuses on Whitacre's meltdown and bizarre behavior resulting from the pressures of working undercover for the FBI, going into great detail. Whitacre became extremely manic, stopped sleeping most nights, and was seen using a gas leaf blower on his driveway during a thunderstorm at three o’clock in the morning. Whitacre attempted suicide a few months later, but was saved by his groundskeeper.
Whitacre, who earned a
Ph.D. from
Cornell University in nutritional biochemistry, is the most improbable figure of the story. With his extremely poor judgment associated with bipolar disorder, he believed up to the end that he would become chief executive officer of ADM when the dust settled. His wife tried to convince him otherwise. He was also peculiarly suggestible. After seeing the movie
The Firm he imitated its hero,
Mitch McDeere, played by
Tom Cruise, and began taping the FBI agents and storing the tapes for later use. Indeed, at one
point, corporate investigator Jules Kroll, founder of
Kroll Associates, was convinced Whitacre was acting out a delusional fantasy based on The Firm and came up with forty-six parallels between the ADM case and the Grisham tale.
