I think all images relating to the FBI should be taken from and sourced to their photo gallery. Seems the most logical thing to do.
The obvious steps would be:
- Upload the best quality imagery you can from there, possibly a Sec
701 template warning people that the image is PD but misuse in the US is highly illegal (if such doesn't exist already).
There are similar issues with some other US government imagery - no copyright restrictions per se, but using it in a misleading fashion is explicitly illegal. The first example I can think of is the NASA logo, which we mark accordingly:

- note the third template.
