WASHINGTON (AP) — Working inside the New York Police Department is one of the CIA's most experienced clandestine operatives. He arrived in July as the special assistant to the deputy commissioner of intelligence. While his title is clear, his job responsibilities are not.

Federal and city officials have offered differing explanations for why this top CIA officer was assigned to a municipal police department since The Associated Press revealed the assignment in August. The CIA is prohibited from spying domestically, and its unusual partnership with the NYPD has troubled top lawmakers and prompted an internal investigation.

1. NYC has a mini CIA. They have a helicopter that can zoom into things a mile away ...like high rise

windows....and see the people inside. :( I'm trying to remember what documentary I watched that gave the inside scoop on the NYC CIA. Can't remember...I'm sure someone else will remember for me. ;)

That's probably why he's there. Teaching them how to spy on U.S. citizens under the guise of the NYPD, when it's really a NY CIA.
