>>15319163 seriously, just look at this guy. Jim Clemente

 

Criminal Minds Advisor

 

Mandy Patinkin became an acquaintance with Clemente during research for his role as BAU profiler Jason Gideon. Through Patinkin (Clemente was undergoing treatment for his lymphoma), he established a bond with others connected to Criminal Minds, providing informal advice about profiling and the BAU since Season One. By then, he was back to his own work as an FBI agent, and because of that, he couldn't supplement his salary with an outside job without some kind of approval. He did it because it was an opportunity to teach; he says the collaboration works well,creating an accurate picture of the BAU for the public and alerting other law enforcement agencies to its services, particularly in cases in which time is of the essence. In one hour, the show can reach 18 million people, while during his career, he probably had been able to teach around 50,000 police officers and professionals around the world.

 

In his own words[1]: "…I went out and met the executive producer, Ed Bernero. It turned out he had been a cop. We hit it off pretty quickly. I said, 'I'd love to help you. As long as you help us do our job and don't hurt it.' He said, 'What do you mean?' 'If you insult cops or you have us come in and take the case away from cops or, you know, disrespect them, the cops in the real world are going to think that's what we're like. But if you make it that we're working with the cops, it's their case and we're just helping… if you can do that, I will be happy to help you.' I'm now on Season 9 of helping them."

 

In a rare occurrence, he wrote his first Criminal Minds episode while being an agent still with the FBI. After his retirement, he has written one per season, always being credited as "Jim Clemente":

 

Season Two

"Lessons Learned"

Season Five

"Risky Business"

"A Badge and a Gun"

Season Twelve

Clemente has also made uncredited cameo appearances in the episodes he writes. In "Risky Business", he played an ER receptionist. In "Gabby", he portrayed a pedophile.In "A Badge and a Gun", he portrayed Ed Sulzbach, a former FBI agent and murder victim of Andrew Meeks.[2] Most recently, in "Lucky Strikes", he portrayed an unnamed police officer.

 

Starting in Season Six, Clemente became an official technical adviser for the series. Starting in Season Eleven, he became a full-fledged producer.

 

Lead characters Jason Gideon and David Rossi are partially based on Jim Clemente and his career with the BAU. Derek Morgan's back-story of sexual abuse at the hands of a mentor was based on Jim's real-life experience.

THE PROFILER

Jim Clemente had one of the toughest jobs in the FBI: undercover special agent and profiler. Clemente put himself into the mindset of the criminals, making him an ideal candidate to investigate one of the most shocking events of US President Bill Clinton’s presidency: the death of White House counsel Vince Foster.Clemente needed to find out what Foster was thinking and feeling in the days before his death. And what - if anything - the Clintons had to do with it.

 

Guest Bio

 

Jim Clemente was a New York prosecutor but also a victim of sexual abuse as a teenager. The FBI wanted him to wear a wire to help convict his abuser, which led to Clemente working as an FBI agent for more than 20 years going undercover in various roles including three stressful years as a commodities broker. He was also the FBI profiler called in to solve a mystery gripping the US in the 1990s:was White House lawyer Vince Foster killed because he knew too much?

NARRATOR: Welcome to True Spies. Week by week, mission by mission, you’ll hear the true stories behind the world’s greatest espionage operations. You’ll meet the people who navigate this secret world. What do they know? What are their skills? And what would you do in their position? This is True Spies.

 

CLEMENTE: With any equivocal death investigation, you have no idea where the investigation is going to take you, but in this particular investigation, it starts at the White House. That makes it incredibly difficult to conduct an investigation when you know that two of the people that are intimately involved in it are the First Lady and the President of the United States.

 

NARRATOR: This is True Spies Episode 45: The Profiler. This story begins with an ending.

 

CLEMENTE: On the evening of January 20, 1993, Vince Foster was found dead by a gunshot wound at the top of an earthen berm in Fort Marcy Park.

 

NARRATOR: A life cut short in a picturesque, wooded park 10-minute outside of the US capital. He was found by someone walking through the park who then called the US Park Police. The Park Police and EMTs responded to the scene and the coroner then arrived and pronounced Foster dead. And his body was removed.

 

NARRATOR: A body, anonymous - housed in an expensive woolen suit, a crisp white dress shirt. A vivid bloodstain on the right shoulder. When they then searched his car that was in the parking lot they found a pass to the White House.

 

NARRATOR: The first clue of the life that had been. The first rattle of the storm about to take hold.

 

CLEMENTE: They went to Foster’s home to notify his wife, and while they were there the President of the United States shows up.

 

NARRATOR: President Bill Clinton, just six months into his first term in office.

 

CLEMENTE: And that’s when they realize that not only did Vince Foster work at the White House, but he was a close personal friend of the President of the United States.

 

NARRATOR: A man consoles the shell-shocked widow of his childhood friend. For now, this is a tragedy of intimate proportions. But tomorrow morning, a striking story will make the front pages of the nation’s newspapers.

 

CLEMENTE: I remember on July 21st, 1993, I was working in the US Attorney’s office in New York City and I noticed on the desk there was a copy of the New York Post, and the entire front cover was a picture and a bold headline about White House counsel Vince Foster being found dead. And I remember picking up the paper and walking into the assistant of the United States Attorney's office and saying to him: ‘Wow, I’d love to figure out what happened here. This sounds like there’s more to this story.’

 

NARRATOR: This episode of True Spies is about the shockwaves of controversy and scandal that tore the White House open in the early 1990s, and left one of the President’s closest confidantes dead. It’s about the grubby game of politics, the noble intentions of an honest man, and a conspiracy that took hold of a nation’s imagination. It is the story of one burning question.

 

CLEMENTE: How does the White House counsel end up dead by a gunshot wound just outside of Washington, DC?

 

NARRATOR: And the True Spy who would finally answer it.

 

CLEMENTE: I’m Jim Clemente. I’m a retired FBI supervisory special agent and profiler. I spent 22 years working for the FBI.

 

NARRATOR: Two years will lapse before Jim gets a chance to disappear into the story that has demanded the whole of Washington’s attention on a hot, sticky morning in July of 1993. But he can wait. In a way, he has been preparing for this case his entire life.

 

CLEMENTE: In college, I was a chemistry major but I took a criminal law course in undergrad at Fordham University and I loved it. For me, every single case was like reading a whole new book about somebody’s life and circumstances and I just found it fascinating.

 

NARRATOR: That spark of fascination led Jim Clemente to what he thought would be his lifelong career.

 

CLEMENTE: I was a prosecutor for the city of New York in the Bronx and I worked child sex crimes, prosecutions, violent-crime prosecutions, and so forth.

 

NARRATOR: It was riveting, demanding work. Work that fulfilled him, in many ways - except for one.

 

CLEMENTE: When I was a kid, I always wanted to be a detective, but I went to college and I then I decided to go to law school, and I thought: ‘Well, detective is sort of not in the cards anymore.’

 

NARRATOR: But every life contains twists and turns. The one that would define Jim Clemente came from close to home.

 

CLEMENTE: I actually got a call from my brother, my older brother, and he said: ‘Now that you’re a prosecutor, we should go after the director of the camp.’ And I asked him why and he said: ‘Because when I was there I snuck into his office and I found three paperbacks filled with Polaroid pictures of him molesting boys.’ And I said: ‘I thought I was the only one.’

CLEMENTE: By being imaginative, you can put yourself in the place of the offender, so you’re not really looking at it from the outside. You’re actually experiencing it in your own mind. The crime,the pre- and post-offense behavior, the interactions with the victims, the escape routes. All those things, you try to play them out in your mind and then do self-analysis to figure out why you would do those things and what you would be thinking during those times. Again that reveals information about the choices that the offender makes and gives us better insight into the kind of person that could do that.

 

NARRATOR: Secondly, loyal, authority-respecting do-gooders need not apply. This job posting is for the renegades amongst you.

 

CLEMENTE: It’s also important to be a rebel. In other words, if you’re very dogmatic and can only think one way, then it’s going to be very difficult for you to put yourself in the place of the offender and figure out really what makes him tick. Because if we look at how the crime was committed, that leads us to why the crime was committed, and that leads us to who committed the crime.

 

NARRATOR: As an FBI profiler, Jim put those traits to good use on a number of different investigations. But I know what you’re thinking. How exactly did a specialty for tracking down child abductors and violent criminals lead Jim Clemente to the heart of an explosive, political scandal?

 

CLEMENTE: That same type of skill-set that I developed in the Behavioral Analysis Unit was actually very useful in an array of different kinds of cases and situations, one of which is equivocal death investigations.

 

NARRATOR: An equivocal death investigation is carried out at crime scenes where the details surrounding the manner of death are unclear.Cases like that of Vince Foster,the White House deputy counsel found dead from a gunshot wound in a park close to Washington, DC.
