The man isn't wrong. The cases of proven perjury to obtain search warrants is long enough that half the agency should be in federal prison. It stands to reason the problem is FAR worse than reported. Epidemic is not too strong a term.
And lets not forget the proven case of the Gold Standard FBI crime lab that was shown to have falsified almost every report it submitted to criminal trial for 25 years.
Overall it is probably the biggest organized crime syndicate in world history. It isn't so much that the FBI "went bad". They were always the embodiment of everything this nation was founded to fight. J. Edgar Hoover was the most evil human of the 20th century, and yes children that includes Stalin, Hitler, and Pol Pot. Because all those men were at least absolutely honest about their goals and methods.
BUT CRUCIALLY a nation of citizens that allows this gang to exist and it's members to walk the streets freely deserves everything it gets.
