The FBI lost track of 62 foreign nationals who the agency was sponsoring in the US to serve as cooperators, according to a new inspector general report buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil… 
The report didn't specify who these sponsored foreign nationals were, when the FBI lost track of them, or their current status. But the report notes people sponsored under these programs might otherwise be ineligible b/c of ties to "criminal enterprises" buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
The report also indicated that records appeared to show that the FBI didn't immediately report a number of these "absconsions" to the Dept. of Homeland Security, which is generally in charge of finding people in these situations buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
The FBI told the inspector general's office that they've improved their systems now, and are doing a better job of working together to identify and report absconsions right away buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetil…
