Good idea, bad idea?

Alright. I somehow had this revelation yesterday and thought of a story idea. Here goes:

 

There is an undercover FBI agent who is protecting a terrorist(oddly enough). They want to prevent another Lee Harvey Oswald accident(as in, don't let the badperson get murdered). So they put him undercover as a criminal on death row. They go through a "trial", and he pleads innocent, but the jury finds him guilty. The evidence of his innocence is hidden at FBI headquarters when the time is right for him to leave his cover.

Well....then there is a terrorist attack that hits FBI HQ and blows the evidence to smithereenes. While the whole country is in panic, some terrorist try to sneek their buddy(the one mentioned above)out of prison. The agent stops them in an epic battle, but learns that he is screwed because the evidence for his innocence is gone. Well...he then some of the surviving FBI agents break him out(again in epic fashion)and they become fugitives. (Washington and FBI are messed up, so they can't pardon them)And these people have to stop terrorists from destroying a bunch of stuff, and prove their innocence, while running away from the authorities that they should be apart of.

 

Yeah...it's got some things that have to be worked out, but the basic idea is there. Good idea or bad idea?

good idea, could this legally happen though? do the powers granted to the FBI allow them to manipulate the legal system like that? (doesn't really matter for the story, just wondering for my own accord).

I'm assuming no. But it could make for a good story.
