FBI Chief that Backed Carol Lam Retiring?

Carol Lam , as you might know, is the fired US Attorney from San Diego. She was intrumental in the investigation of the corruption of Randy "Duke" Cunningham. Her investigation also pulled other republicans into the investigation. She also found that FBI's, Dusty Foggo, had a part in this investigation. He has since resigned.

Now San Diego FBI Cheif, Dan Dzwilewski, has announced his retirement. Dzwilewski is the one who wrote that glowing letter about Carol Lam and her department's handling of the immigration cases in the San Diego area.

Sign on San Diego has more:

San Diego FBI chief Dan Dzwilewski, who was rebuked by superiors for publicly defending ousted U.S. Attorney Carol Lam, has announced his retirement. Dzwilewski, who has been at the helm of the San Diego office since July 2003, sent an e-mail to his agents and staff Wednesday saying he planned to take a post as director of security at Sempra Energy. His last day at the bureau is to be April 30.

Some colleagues found the timing of the announcement curious. On Tuesday, FBI Director Robert Mueller acknowledged during testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee that one of his subordinates, John Pistole, told Dzwilewski that his statements on Lam were inappropriate and that he should keep quiet.

Dzwilewski had said Lam's firing was political and would adversely affect ongoing corruption cases.

So Mueller admitted that one of his subordinates asked Dzwilewski to keep quiet. For what reason? And the excuse that has been given:

However, some people familiar with Dzwilewski's plans said he was ready for a change after 27 years with the bureau and had been job hunting for months. Dzwilewski, who had held numerous assignments in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C.,
San Diego and Honolulu, had made it clear he planned to get off the FBI career
ladder and retire in San Diego, they said.

Officials declined to say whether Dzwilewski's retirement was forced as a result of his comments on Lam.

So he's been job hunting outside of the FBI and he made these comments because he knew he was leaving? Hmmm! Sounds a bit trumped up to me. The only reason he might have been job hunting, in my opinion, is because of pressure from above. After all it was under his leadership that this happened:

During Dzwilewski's tenure, local FBI agents investigated the Randy “Duke”
Cunningham bribery scandal and its spinoff cases as well as the corruption investigation involving San Diego city councilmen.

I can see a subpoena coming his way!
