My Non-Political FBI
From Hoover to a Violent America
The FBI as seen from the inside
Bob Pence found his dream job in being an FBI Agent. Working his way up to Special Agent in Charge, Bob was assigned throughout the United States to combat crime for the Bureau. He was in the South during the civil rights unrest of the 1960s, was trained in Cantonese Chinese for assignments in the Big Apple, was responsible for security at FBI Headquarters and all FBI properties throughout the world, and helped thwart the efforts of bank robbers, drug dealers, and outlaw motorcycle gang members. He and his team helped close down the polluted and controversial Rocky Flats nuclear site in Colorado.
Bob also details the acceptance and growth of female Special Agents working in the FBI, what is required to become a Special Agent, and comments on the troubling trend he sees of the growing violence in America.
This book is an informative and loving look at the Bureau and the Special Agents that serve there.
During his 30 years with the FBI, Bob Pence served in a number of supervisory and executive positions, retiring as the Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of FBI offices in the Rocky Mountain states with Division Headquarters in Denver. Since then he has traveled throughout the U.S. and abroad as a speaker and law enforcement consultant in matters involving crime and terrorism. Bob has also served as a media consultant to national TV networks and local media organizations, appearing frequently in matters dealing with public safety issues.
