After contacting the FBI and NYPD's Sexual Exploitation of Children Task Force, he agreed to wear a wire and was able to gather evidence to convict his abuser, the former camp director of a Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) camp, where he attended.[2] Following this take-down, he was recruited by the FBI where he worked as an undercover agent and a profiler in the Behavioral Analysis Unit.[4][2]

Jim's brother is Tim Clemente who also served as a special agent in the FBI.[2]
