No bad guy wants to have his fellow bad guys rat him out. Anyone with damning knowledge about YOUR crimes (if you were a bad guy) is a threat, and since this is a life-or-death situation and you DON'T want to swing from the gallows, you eliminate whatever threats you can.
Sure, the white hats say "no deals" but that's NOT an absolute, because as Q tells us, not everyone guilty of crimes will be prosecuted. Many, especially those who had themselves or their families threatened and only committed crimes for that reason, will be rehabilitated. So yes: plenty of Deep State actors ARE threats to those above them.
I've always told people, that in a fight between Good and Evil, when things get down to the wire, the good will sacrifice for one another while the evil throw each other under the bus, in a heartbeat. I think we've all seen this behavior in movies.

Good point.
