How Feds made informants MILLIONAIRES: $548m paid out, including $1.4m to parcel company worker, $926k to Amtrak employee and $655k to airline worker
A government audit found the FBI spent $294 million between 2012 and 2018 and the Drug Enforcement Agency paid at least $237 million from 2011 to 2015
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) had had spent about $17.2 million from 2012 to 2015
The Office of the Inspector General had slammed the DEA for wasteful spending in a damning audit in 2016
The DEA had paid more than $1 million to a parcel company informant whose tips never resulted in any drug trafficking charges
They also paid an Amtrak employee more than $900,000 despite the fact that they could have gotten the information gleaned for free
Airline workers were incentivized to make tips through bigger payments and a cut of what was seized, with one worker earning about $655,000
