  • DOING TIME LIKE A SPY. ON PRISON SURVIVAL AND THE CIA'S WAR ON TERROR.
    John Kiriakou (CIA anti-torture whistleblower, USA). Moderated by Magnus Ag (senior program officer, Freemuse, DK/DE)
    CIA anti-torture whistleblower John Kiriakou is considered the first US intelligence officer to reveal information about the US intelligence community’s use of torture techniques. A long-time former CIA official and case officer, John Kiriakou became an anti-torture whistleblower and activist when he told ABC News in December 2007 that the CIA was torturing Al Qaeda prisoners. Immediately after John’s interview, the Justice Department initiated a years-long investigation, determined to find something-anything-to charge him with. John eventually was charged with three counts of espionage, one count of violating the Intelligence Identities Protection Act and one count of making a false statement as a result of the 2007 ABC News interview.
    On February 28, 2013, after pleading guilty to violating the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, Kiriakou began serving his prison sentence. During this keynote presentation, Kiriakou will talk about the effects and costs of national security whistleblowing in the United States, as well as his book, Doing Time Like a Spy: How the CIA Taught Me to Survive and Thrive in Prison, to be released May 3, 2017 (published by Rare Bird Books). The book is Kiriakou’s memoir of his twenty-three months in prison. Using twenty life skills he learned in CIA operational training, he was able to keep himself safe and at the top of the prison social heap. What were improper and inappropriate manipulations of Kiriakou, through maneuvers that were designed to break him, came an end result that only made him stronger.

    Not a whistleblower. A gatekeeper..
    He is admitting that in the last 5-6 minutes of the video.
    And I think this guy did the voice of Kitt in Knight Rider.

    John Kiriakou was counter intelligence... if I was an FBI/NSA/CIA agent, with moral and ethical doubts... would I contact him?
    Did he really did time in prison?
    Did he really leave the CIA?
    Yes I know, it's paranoia...

    Unfortunately it turned out very soon that this event was nothing but a pure promtion show for his unspectular book.Very disapointing for the highly interested participants who hoped to experience breaking relevations. As the author himself said: he is a patriot. And he learnt his lesson.

      I found his discussion as a CIA analyst, in other CZcams videos, extremely interesting (even coming to see him as a true American hero); however, I worked in a medium and low-risk prison here in KY and didn't think his prison experiences made complete sense; for example, most Ky inmates seemed extremely poor; no inmate seemed to have very much canteen money, they survived, for the most part, on what they ate in the dining hall, for better or worse; and, I sure didn't see any parties being thrown by any inmate (we guards only had a few parties ourselves, during my two or so years as a guard, since we (and especially the inmates) didn't see a lot to party about, unfortunately). I'm wondering if the prison - even though behind walls - was somehow rated minimum security (admittedly, I have no knowledge, really, of federal prisons)?
