Welcome to the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption and Internal Investigations Practice Group’s Podcast, All Things Investigations. In this podcast, host Tom Fox and returning guest Kevin Carroll of the Hughes Hubbard Anti-Corruption & Internal Investigations Practice Group, highlight some of the key legal issues in white-collar investigations, locally and internationally.
Kevin Carroll is a partner in the firm’s Washington and New York offices, in its white collar and investigations practices. He represents businesses, senior executives and government officials in congressional and criminal investigations; conducts internal investigations; and litigates national security claims. He is a former CIA Case Officer and a writer whose work has been published in the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, and Bloomberg Law.
Key areas we discuss on this podcast are:
- How the DOJ protects the President’s Black Book of Options in the event of a nuclear attack.
- It’s certainly irresponsible if a congressman or a senator goes to the well of the House of the Senate and reads classified information into the record, but constitutionally, they can’t be prosecuted for it.
- The counterintelligence section of the DOJ is responsible for investigating and prosecuting espionage.
- What is the National Archives?
- The role of the Secret Service in the execution of warrants.
- There’s a statute in the Classified Information Protection Act (CIPA) that allows classified information to be shown to a defense lawyer who has security clearance.
