WASHINGTON - The FBI (news - web sites) has a backlog of hundreds of thousands of hours of untranslated audio recordings from terror and espionage investigations, despite large increases in money and personnel for translations since the 2001 terror attacks, a Justice Department (news - web sites) audit released Monday said.



In addition, the audit by Glenn A. Fine, the agency's inspector general, found more than one-third of al-Qaida intercepts authorized by a secret federal court were not reviewed within 12 hours of collection as required by FBI Director Robert Mueller.

This is just terrible! how are we supposed to feel safe when our government doesn't even have the resources to do so. looks like they need a "help wanted" sign outside of the building.
