The OIG Hotline Investigations Division is reported to be staffed by those with high character and integrity, who possess an unyielding commitment to the truth. That's the reason I have extended my trust to this particular group of people, and only to them, in communicating about my concerns regarding the FBI's engagement in falsified law enforcement reporting for anti-democratic objectives. That's the reason I have extended my permissions to this particular group of people, and only to them, in speaking to my physicians and attorneys, and others in my and my family's acquaintance, in the interests of furthering their active investigation.
The larger OIG, in contrast to the OIG Hotline, is reported to be a divided office, with certain employees having been corrupted by far-right interests, including those within segments of the FBI.
What happens if individuals controlled by corrupt members of the FBI become responsible for investigating malfeasance within the FBI?
Bad things, certainly.
One might anticipate that, should such corruption hold sway, whistleblowers might be discredited and the truth might be suppressed.
I don't want that to happen, which is why my husband and I wrote to IG Michael E. Horowitz today to make clear to him that only the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline has our permission to conduct an investigation into the concerns I have raised. No one else.
I include that letter below, along with its text transcribed for ease of reading.

Dear Inspector General Horowitz:
Please find attached a letter from the Office of the Inspector General dated April 13, 2022.
In this letter, the OIG's Investigations Division states, "The matters you raised are outside our investigative jurisdiction, therefore no action can be taken by our Office ... Please be advised that this is the only correspondence you will receive from our Office regarding this matter."
Mr. Horowitz, it is noteworthy that I have been corresponding with the OIG Hotline Investigations Division, which is separate and distinct from the OIG Investigations Division -- something I'm certain not many members of the American public know.
I have had no dialogue with the OIG's Investigations Division, and I do not intend to initiate one.
My correspondence is directed to the OIG Hotline's Investigations Division and to that division only.
No one outside of the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline has my permission to undertake any investigative efforts whatsoever regarding the matters of concern to me.
No one outside of the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline has my permission to speak to my friends, my family members, my colleagues, my physicians, my attorneys, my neighbors, my acquaintances, my husband's friends, my husband's family members, my husband's colleagues, my husband's physicians, my husband's attorneys, my husband's neighbors, my husband's acquaintances, etc.
I could continue, but perhaps it is possible to see a pattern emerging here.
I assert my claim to privacy and confidentiality in specifying that only the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline has my permission to contact anyone in my acquaintance with regard to the matters raised within my correspondence to the OIG Hotline.
Further, my husband asserts his claim to privacy and confidentiality in specifying that only the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline has my husband's permission to contact anyone in his acquaintance with regard to matters raised within my correspondence to the OIG Hotline.
Anyone outside of the Investigations Division of the OIG Hotline who contacts our acquaintances will be regarded as violating our privacy and will be held wholly and separately liable under the law.
I hope I have made myself clear.
Thank you for your cooperation in upholding our rights as we have asserted them within this communication, and as they are articulated within the U.S. Constitution.
Sincerely,
Lane and Ken MacWilliams
