SENTINEL MAY DO IN THE OLD FBI

By Bob Walsh

 

 

There is a program in the FBI information system called SENTINEL.  Its existence has only recently come to light.  Almost nobody within the FBI even knew it existed.  Essentially it is an electronic hidey-hole where the FBI stashed documents that they did not want pretty much ANYBODY to know they actually had.  They were more deeply buried than RESTRICTED ACCESS documents and are called PROHIBITED ACCESS documents.  Even special prosecutors or congressional investigators could not access this material, because they did not know it existed.  It seems that even the FBI Inspector General, Michael Horowitz, was not aware of this program's existence.  Or, he MAY have known about it and agreed to keep it secret.  That isn't clear at this stage.

There is speculation (unproven) that former FBI Director James Comey used this stash to conceal evidence of Hunter Biden's corruption with Burisma.  

It isn't real clear what is going on with this program and what, if any, investigation, may be under way.
