AFAIK, the FBI is a bit like a black hole, so it's a bit hard to work
with them.  On the other hand, not disclosing the details of an
ongoing criminal investigation to non-trusted individuals (and these
people are apparently new to the field) is usually a good idea.
Filing a complaint doesn't mean you are trustworthy.
