James H. Robertson Named Special Agent in Charge of Buffalo Division - James H. Robertson has been named special agent in charge (SAC) of the FBI’s Buffalo Division. FBI Director Robert S. Mueller, III appointed him to this position to replace SAC Laurie J. Bennett, who now serves as deputy assistant director of the Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate at FBI Headquarters. Most recently, Mr. Robertson served as chief of the International Terrorism Operations Section II, FBI Counterterrorism Division.
Mr. Robertson entered on duty as an FBI special agent in May 1989. Upon completion of training at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, he was assigned to the Chicago Division. While there, he served on a joint FBI-Chicago Police Department Organized Crime Task Force targeting the Chicago Outfit. He also served as a primary sniper for the regional SWAT team. In January 1998, he was promoted to supervisory special agent in the Inspection Division at FBI Headquarters, responsible for evaluating the FBI’s Confidential Informant Program. In January 2000, Mr. Robertson was assigned to the Detroit Division as the supervisory senior resident agent of the Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and St. Joseph Resident Agencies. He served in that role until October 2004, when he was promoted to assistant special agent in charge (ASAC) of the Cincinnati Division’s National Security Branch. As ASAC, he had program management responsibilities for the Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, Field Intelligence, and Cyber Crimes Programs. From October 2005 to April 2006, Mr. Robertson served as the Counterterrorism Division’s on-scene commander for the Iraqi Theater of Operations (ITO). He commanded all FBI operations in Iraq, and was responsible for liaison with Department of Defense elements and military commanders within the ITO. Mr. Robertson was promoted to section chief of the Counterterrorism Division’s International Terrorism Operations Section II in November 2007. In that role, he formulated and implemented the Counterterrorism Division’s overseas strategy and was responsible for the day-to-day management and oversight of international terrorism investigations and operations abroad. Mr. Robertson is married and has two daughters.
Robertson has the balls to take on the court corruption that has polluted New York state from the north. And you know what flows southward...
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know what Roberston knows about the many ignored complaints made to the Buffalo FBI over the last 10 years?
All I know is that Scarpino was an FBI agent, and everyone knows how that turned out.
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying this guy isn't going to be doing anything, but if he doesn't come out of the gate with substanctive actions, then it will just more of the same ole thing.
Let's just hope Robertson doesn't get "sucked" in by Sharon Townsend before she leaves...like the one that was protecting her court sabotage in the early and mid 2000's!
ReplyDeletethe FBI has to be getting tired of the complaints, and the June 8 meetings are a start and Sedita was quoted as saying "no judge no lawyer no public official"
ReplyDeleteso if we can get a few to have integrity, the rest will follow!
keep praying......
when is the witch of the admin leaving! I heard she will still be a sitting judge!
ReplyDeletethat the operative word "sucked"
ReplyDeleteit seems that is why our court system isn't working, protecting those who "suck"
they will have to put FBI agents in our courthouses, to stop the terrorists and prostitues that are inside!
ReplyDeleteDA Sedita may be ethical...but he has his father the judge to weigh... whenever he makes remarks about who is and is not above the law...as old man Sedita is a major part and problem relative to corruption within the 8th district....stemming way, way back.
ReplyDeleteFather Sedita and uncle Judge Joe Sedita are and were some real scum ridden judges and should have been removed years and years ago...but instead the father stays till this day on a certification and impededes his son from working his ethics in a career..where daddy judge allowed, created and participated in judicial destruction.
It makes the poor DA'S job of law abiding..prosecute ANYONE who breaks the law..kinda hypocritical and lacking his family's tremendous influence in the corruption of the upstate justice system in the 8th district...dating back to the late 60's!
Our only hope is that the real people get to speak to the FBI before the thug judiciary gets their cash and carry hands on the brown bag they will quietly use to welcome this agent with.... at the Big Democratic, "Conservative" and Republican parties bash...filled with PAY to play tactics of WNY!
These local politicians and judges will certainly want to stave off the soon to come....CORRUPTION INVESTIGATION..PROOF DRIVEN AND PEOPLE FUELED!
only time will tell...
ReplyDeletesometimes the children want the field a bit cleaner than their parents.......
