Mark F. Giuliano, a career FBI official who was second-in-command at the law enforcement agency when it launched a controversial investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server as she sought the 2016 Democratic nomination for president, died March 2 at his home in Decatur, Ga. He was 62.

The cause was an apparent heart attack, said his sister Ann Britz.

In an FBI career that began in 1988 and spanned almost three decades, Mr. Giuliano started as a street agent in Washington pursuing violent crime and gangs. He later supervised high-profile criminal cases and the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted program.

As with many FBI agents, the focus of his work shifted significantly following the al-Qaeda terrorist attacks of 2001. The FBI put a larger emphasis on global security threats and, for a time, he worked in Afghanistan overseeing an FBI team supporting U.S. Special Forces.

My first thought was that he knows too much.

Yes, every time there is a story with the FBI mentioned, he can’t help himself and repeatedly says the rank and file FBI are honest hard working patriots.
