Walker contacted the FBI in Denver, and Denver checked with the Los Angeles FBI office for an okay. But the LA office wanted Denver to stay out of it. Instead, in what sounds like an intra-agency turf war, an agent at the LA office told the people in Denver they were not to assist with setting up a trap-and-trace. They all wanted a piece of me. If I’d known about the squabbling at the time, I might have been able to use it to my advantage.
