I have a question regarding that cringe podcast called "chapotraphouse"

In their last episode they mentioned the FBI dm-ing psychos to make them do shootings.

I knew about the FBI organizing honeypots for boogaloos/nazis/etc, but I haven't heard of this

What's the goal of these? Like, I understand doing it once to get someone important killed but like constantly? what for?

Also, and probably the first thing I should ask, are these real?

    What’s the goal of these?

    To get promoted for busting a dangerous killer.

    The guy wasn't going to kill anyone before you started fucking with him? Doesn't matter, your boss isn't gonna call you on it, because he got promoted for doing this shit too.

    All human organizations eventually become lead by people who do whatever it is that makes them advance within that organization, then the organization becomes dedicated to doing that thing.
