Federal Times: Justice Department leaders are interviewing four veteran law enforcement and intelligence officials for the role of interim FBI director.

Justice Department officials identified the contenders as Adam Lee and Michael Anderson, who run the FBI's field offices in Richmond, Virginia, and Chicago, respectively. Others are Paul Abbate, who oversees the FBI's criminal and cyber branch, and William Evanina, the government's chief counterintelligence officer.
