Yep, he was in trouble and even had other FBI agents under him testify against Lin, but Gerry Capeci saved the day. He had tapes from 11 yrs prior where Linda (chief witness) told a completely different story thus rendering her testimony in court as lies (so Lin was very lucky) he had corruption written all over him even to this day
Not Capeci but his colleague & sometime writing partner Tom Robbins, then of the Village Voice, had the tapes--
