Since he seems to be a pathological liar, how about some waterboarding to help his memory? I'm sure we could clear up any misconceptions about the NSA's activities quickly with this officially-sanctioned (at least by former officials) method of "interrogation", which the US has applied many times in the past (allegedly with great success and little regret).
Don't waterboard him, and he'll tell you whatever he wants you to hear. Waterboard him, and he'll tell you whatever you want to hear.
Questioning him, under any circumstances, is useless. We need to get rid of him instead, and perform an independent investigation. However the circumstances under which such an independent investigation would be useful are limited. When East Germany started to fall, the Stasi started shredding everything they could get their hands on; organizations like this don't allow evidence to survive.
