  Jack Crawford (FBI) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jack Crawford is a supporting character appearing in the Hannibal Lecter series of books by Thomas Harris, in which he is in charge of the Behavioral Science Unit of the FBI in Quantico, Virginia.
Crawford was haunted with guilt and resented Lecter for the rest of his life.
Crawford was offended by the gesture and momentarily lost his trust in Starling, thinking, incorrectly, she had told Lecter about his personal life.

 The Silence of the Lambs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crawford's wife has a terminal condition and is not expected to survive for much longer; many at the Bureau marvel at Crawford's ability to function.

Crawford's subplot, regarding the death of his wife, is eliminated for simplicity (neither Crawford nor his wife were in Hannibal either, and no mention of Crawford's wife is made in Manhunter).

Crawford could have had a different exchange with Clarice, one where he asked questions and she gave information about her past, but this dialogue is more interesting and more efficient than forcing the hero to stumble through facts on herself.
Clarice is actually being tested by three parties in the film: Crawford, her FBI mentor; Lector, her emotional and "romantic" mentor (because there is a definite sexuality to their relationship; they've shared the intimacy of Miggs already); and Buffalo Bill, the opponent who doesn't even know she exists.
Crawford asks how she knows this, and she explains the killer needs privacy and a place to keep them for three days before he skins them.

 Classic-Horror Review of The Silence of the Lambs (1991)
Her boss and former teacher, Jack Crawford, sends her on a mission to question the paradoxical Lecter, a brilliant, world-renowned psychiatrist turned cannibal (his name aptly captures these contradictions - "Dr. Cannibal Lecturer").
The FBI itself is depicted as an impersonal, bland castle full of sharp, rigid angles, and most noticeably, men, (in fact, the whole film is), that squawk and stare at the mere presence of a woman.
Crawford, Starling, and Lecter are all competent professionals, and each is arguably obsessed with his or her profession.

 Watch your back, Hannibal is back
FBI agent and forensic profiler Will Graham (Ed Norton) shows up late one night at Lecter’s (Anthony Hopkins) house to talk about a serial killer they have been working together to catch.
FBI agent Jack Crawford (Harvey Keitel) is dealing with another serial killer called "The Tooth Fairy" and desperately needs Graham’s help.
The story, at its most basic, is about just how similar FBI agent Graham and serial killer Dolarhyde can be, but for the most part, too much attention on Lecter and too little on Graham make that connection impossible.
