If he's CIA, then CIA has a lot of 'splainin to do. It's illegal for them to operate on US soil against US citizens. That isn't going to shield Epps from anything. He'd better hope he was FBI because at least then, he'd have a corrupt FBI to protect him by claiming it was some sort of domestic terrorism investigation that lead him to engage in illegal entrapment. He'd get a lighter sentence.
