Federal institutions are made up of people. Sometimes these people are very stupid. That's what I can tell, anyway, especially with two parents who are current/former feds. People like to paint the government as a monolith when in fact it's a bureaucracy with tons of organizational minutiae that don't exist outside the federal government. Also the FBI and such probably draw the sorts of sociopathic folks who would do that.
