CHICAGO — The FBI said Friday that there was insufficient evidence to file charges against the woman whose telephone calls to columnist Bob Greene led him to contact agents months before he resigned from the Chicago Tribune over a sexual encounter with a teenager.

Agents interviewed Greene and a woman who said she made the calls but denied making threats.
