CIA Officer Reveals Body Doubles and Fake Deaths Used to Exfiltrate High Value Intelligence Assets

What was said

"We change their identity. We change their name. We can put a dead body in its place. We can create an accident that makes it look like they died to throw their own government off the case to at least prevent their government from accusing us of espionage."

The former CIA officer explains that witness protection-style operations exist at a much more sophisticated level for extracting high-value foreign assets like senior Russian generals. The U.S. uses body doubles, fake deaths, and fabricated accidents to cover tracks and avoid diplomatic incidents. This revelation provides operational detail about intelligence tradecraft rarely discussed publicly and suggests such methods could theoretically have been applied in high-profile cases like Epstein's death.
