George C. Venizelos, head of the FBI’s Philadelphia division, will be named assistant director in charge of the bureau’s New York field office, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports, citing anonymous sources knowledgeable of the move.
A New Jersey native, the 52-year-old served as interim assistant director in charge of the New York office for several months in 2010 until Janice Fedarcyk was given the job.
Venizelos became special agent in charge of the Philadelphia office, the same post Fedarcyk had held.
Fedarcyk left the bureau for the private sector this summer.
The FBI wouldn’t comment on Venizelos’ new job until there was an official announcement, possibly as early as today.
