Mr. Schiff: A threat of terror in Chicago. A man identified as 66-year-old Gale Nettles, a convicted counterfeiter, allegedly was planning to blow-up a 27-story building...

Mr. Bochte: "The building that he was targeting was one of the federal buildings in downtown Chicago."

Mr. Schiff: That's FBI Special Agent Frank Bochte who works in the FBI office in that building, which also is home to the U.S. Attorney's Office and courtrooms. Bochte says authorities got a tip about Nettles from a Louisiana Prison where Nettles had served time. The investigation began with FBI Agents and others in the Chicago Joint Terrorism Task Force...

Mr. Bochte: "Chicago Police Department, Federal Protective Service, Cook County Sheriff's Department, U.S. Postal Inspection Service, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security."

Mr. Schiff: A sting had Agents and officers selling Nettles what he thought were materials to make a bomb. He could get five to 20-years if convicted. I'm Neal Schiff and that's what's happening at the "FBI, This Week."
