WASHINGTON -- The Federal Bureau of Investigation will reassign
hundreds of agents from local drug and violent-crime investigations to counterterrorism and intelligence in a sweeping reorganization to be announced Wednesday. - The planned reallocation of resources moves almost 500 field agents to counterterrorism from other details, diminishing the FBI's involvement in local murder, kidnapping and drug cases and returning a greater burden for these prosecutions to local law enforcement. The planned reassignments would affect FBI drug-enforcement efforts most, bureau documents show. Efforts to combat white-collar crime, including health-care fraud, also will be trimmed. ---------------------- Pubdate: Wed, 29 May 2002 Source: Wall Street Journal (US) Copyright: 2002 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.
