FBI, BOP Create Counterterrorism Intel Slot for U.S. Prisons

Finding links between alleged terrorists in federal custody and "persons of interest" across the nation will be the primary task of a Counterterrorism Intelligence Officer that the FBI and the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) are seeking to hire from the private sector. Although BOP is coordinating recruitment efforts to fill this newly created slot, the FBI will be stationing the full-time contractor at its Washington, D.C., headquarters. The selected candidate will produce long-range "speculative estimates" on international and domestic acts while analyzing "incarcerated terrorist subjects and their relationship with persons of interest in the community," according to an Aug. 16 contracting notice.

Once hired, he or she will represent the FBI's Counterterrorism Division and the the National Joint Terrorism Task Force, operating as a special-projects manager and intelligence analyst . Likewise, the intel officer will serve as FBI and BOP liaison to the defense and intelligence communities and to "working groups and committees inside and outside of the government," the document says.
