WASHINGTON – Don Van Duyn, the FBI’s chief intelligence officer who regularly briefed FBI Director Robert Mueller III, is stepping down, the FBI confirmed Friday.
Van Duyn, who was appointed to the post of Chief Intelligence Officer for the FBI’s Directorate of Intelligence in Sept. 2008, is retiring at the end of the month, the FBI said.
He joined the FBI in 2003 after working as an analyst for the CIA and as the agency’s liaison to the FBI.
A 2008 FBI press release said he started his FBI career in 2003 as the chief of the Counterterrorism Analysis Section where he “shaped the early development of the FBI’s Intelligence Program.”
FBI spokesman Paul E. Bresson said no replacement has been named.
