Part 8/13:

The FBI fixated on the women and men involved, especially Bonnie Raines and Sara Shumer, whose visits to the FBI office and subsequent uncovered identities led to intense scrutiny. Shumer’s unguarded interaction with agents and her real-name disclosure made her a prime target. Meanwhile, the FBI kept close watch on Peter Greene, suspecting him because of his protests and associations.

Despite their efforts, the FBI’s investigation yielded little. Most of the burglars vanished into obscurity, their names remaining unknown for decades. As Hoover’s forces failed to rearrest the activists, the documents and the story of the break-in remained largely hidden from the American public, clouded by government secrecy and the bureaucratic complexity of investigations.
