This presentation goes into great detail on the steps that a CIA Case Officer employs in acquiring someone in a foreign country with access to valuable information unavailable in any other way, to spy for the USA. It reveals the meticulous planning and clever techniques used to communicate that intelligence safely and securely without compromising it, or jeopardizing both parties over long periods of time.
This program details the characteristic traits of people who are typical candidates for spying. Then, it delves into the four major triggers that cause them to actually do it. Finally, it gives an example from the most notorious spies in World History, foreign and domestic, demonstrating how the patterns of behavior can help us to identify them. 
From Chicago’s elegant Everleigh Club to the rough and tumble Houses of the Old West, this historical romp features women who were America’s first CEOs of the service industry.

The history of famous and infamous Madams continues in Part II, but the location shifts from the old west to the wild side of San Francisco's crib rows, cow yards, and Chinese sex slaves during the Alaskan gold rush and the madams who established their houses of joy in the last, great wild frontier of America.
