- 11:27Speaker 4: anyone else that I'm not missing as I scroll. No,
- 11:33Speaker 4: I think we're good. So, uh, let's get to it
- 11:37Speaker 4: as I try to navigate my new computer which I ordered,
- 11:47Speaker 4: which will be an interesting process here. And we're gonna
- 11:55Speaker 4: be talking about some alleged accused assassins tonight.
- 12:01Speaker 7: Not Roscoe White, no, otherwise other scaf Yes, because I
- 12:08Speaker 7: believe we had a show called Roscoe White Alleged Assassin back.
- 12:13Speaker 3: In the back in the day.
- 12:15Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.
- 12:16Speaker 3: This is just alleged assassins because we got a couple
- 12:21Speaker 3: of them. You know, we're gonna be talking about here tonight,
- 12:23Speaker 3: a couple.
- 12:23Speaker 4: Of we're gonna be talking about three. We're gonna be
- 12:26Speaker 4: starting off with Emilio Santana, yes, and then going into
- 12:33Speaker 4: other scauffuses. Yeah.
- 12:35Speaker 3: He was meant to be included in the members only show,
- 12:38Speaker 3: but uh, you know, technical difficulties. But we got it
- 12:44Speaker 3: back tonight, so we figured he he is one accused assassin,
- 12:49Speaker 3: so we'll throw him in there.
- 12:51Speaker 2: Yes, and let me figure out what's going on here. Okay, alright,
- 13:06Speaker 2: let me see how I could share I know if
- 13:19Speaker 2: you could put it up there, mister Robert.
- 13:22Speaker 3: Mm, it already is, Joseph.
- 13:25Speaker 4: Uh, it already is and on the left this very
- 13:31Speaker 4: handsome gentleman Emilio Santana, which he ha he has a
- 13:36Speaker 4: very interesting.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Story and zero arch in his eyebrows.
- 13:44Speaker 4: Yeah, he has some interesting eyebrows. So and uh. On
- 13:50Speaker 4: the right Charles char Charlie Nicoletty. We'll get into lastly here,
- 13:59Speaker 4: but first we're going to get into some Garrison documents
- 14:05Speaker 4: talking about him. And this is from the box seven
- 14:11Speaker 4: of the I believe it's twelve boxes Rob During the
- 14:16Speaker 4: summer of nineteen sixty three, Oswalt came into the office
- 14:19Speaker 4: of Attorney Dean Andrews. Do you know about three to
- 14:23Speaker 4: five times. On each occasion he was accompanied by a
- 14:27Speaker 4: Latin who was stocky, fairly short, and had an athletic
- 14:32Speaker 4: build and a thick neck.
- 14:35Speaker 3: Yeah. I can't forget the thick neck.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Yes. Andrews describes him as having flat hair which is
- 14:45Speaker 4: crossed out. I don't know what that means. And Andrews' parlance,
- 14:49Speaker 4: this man could go to quote, Fist City pretty good
- 14:53Speaker 4: if he at.
- 14:55Speaker 3: I'm telling you, this old boy go to Fist City
- 14:56Speaker 3: pretty good if he had to. You know what I'm saying.
- 14:58Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a joke in there some where.
- 15:03Speaker 3: That's why Oswald switched when he walked in.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Apparently, maybe this man spoke little and then only in Spanish.
- 15:12Speaker 4: I think they meant to say little English. Nevertheless, he
- 15:17Speaker 4: always I believe that says, entered the inner office with Patsy,
- 15:24Speaker 4: who is Oswald, and.
- 15:29Speaker 5: See if my touch screen.
- 15:30Speaker 3: Works, and it's not working, and remained.
- 15:34Speaker 4: Remained there you go, thank you, there with out comment
- 15:39Speaker 4: until Patsy discussed his legal problems. Of course, he was
- 15:42Speaker 4: trying to get his discharge changed, right.
- 15:45Speaker 3: Rob, Yes, Oswald in his discharge.
- 15:49Speaker 4: There's another joking.
- 15:51Speaker 3: He loved it.
- 15:54Speaker 4: During this period in New Orleans, Oswald apparently appeared at
- 15:59Speaker 4: the habbat In, a bar with a man who spoke
- 16:01Speaker 4: Spanish in order tequila. He identified himself to Evenisto Rododiguez,
- 16:09Speaker 4: the bartender as a Cuban. Rodriguez describes him as being
- 16:14Speaker 4: about five to eight, stocky and white, with very hairy
- 16:18Speaker 4: eyed wide yes. He describes the Latin's hair as receding
- 16:24Speaker 4: on the sides or Espana. The owner of the bar
- 16:29Speaker 4: Habana Bar, of course, states that the man with Patsy
- 16:33Speaker 4: looks Spanish, more Cuban than anything. In the summer of
- 16:39Speaker 4: sixty three, Chico returned to New Orleans for a visit
- 16:45Speaker 4: of as yet under undetermined duration statements by two people,
- 16:52Speaker 4: I have no idea who they are, Iron Irinian and
- 16:55Speaker 4: Lewis a statement by Miguel Torres and bringing again to
- 16:59Speaker 4: his interview in a couple of slides made while enroute
- 17:04Speaker 4: to our office from the State penitentiary, so who's on
- 17:08Speaker 4: his way to jail, indicated that he and his quote
- 17:12Speaker 4: fall partner end quote. Emilio Santana, who had been brought
- 17:17Speaker 4: in the underground from the underground in Cuba in early
- 17:21Speaker 4: sixty three, had dinner with Chico in a French Quarter
- 17:24Speaker 4: apartment during which his enlistment and the revolutionary movement was sought.
- 17:29Speaker 4: This apartment was in the thirteen hundred block of Dauphine Street,
- 17:37Speaker 4: which is the residence locale of the man whom we
- 17:43Speaker 4: have to conclude as Clay Bertrand.
- 17:47Speaker 3: You can, but you can just call me Chico.
- 17:50Speaker 4: We'll get the Chico on a second, I think here,
- 17:52Speaker 4: Clay Bertrand it will be recalled. Contacted Attorney Dean Andrews
- 17:57Speaker 4: during this period about helping Patsy again Oswald with his
- 18:01Speaker 4: legal problems, and subsequently after the assassination called Andrews about
- 18:06Speaker 4: representing Patsy. It appears very possible that the apartment where
- 18:11Speaker 4: Chico stayed during this return visit to New Orleans was
- 18:14Speaker 4: either Clay Bertrand's apartment or one in the same building.
- 18:20Speaker 4: I don't know if they mean building or street, but
- 18:24Speaker 4: was clay Shaw's thirteen hundred?
- 18:29Speaker 3: It was like thirteen thirteen. I think I could be wrong,
- 18:34Speaker 3: but I don't think it was an apartment. I thought
- 18:36Speaker 3: it was a hat, like a standalone ha. Yeah, it
- 18:38Speaker 3: could be yeah.
- 18:39Speaker 4: Yeah, either way, very close.
- 18:41Speaker 3: Right, yeah, definitely, it's not the same building neighbors.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Right the note, the details as to tours'es and Santana's
- 18:53Speaker 4: dinner on the thirteen one hundred block of Delphine with
- 18:56Speaker 4: Chico are not confirmed. Tours, in fact later saw to
- 19:00Speaker 4: claim that this was not Chico, but there is sound
- 19:03Speaker 4: reason to believe he was lying at this point and
- 19:06Speaker 4: he's being kept down here for a.
- 19:08Speaker 5: Lie detector test.
- 19:10Speaker 4: The surmised relationship between Chico and Clay Bertrand is also
- 19:15Speaker 4: unconfirmed at this point. So now we're going to go
- 19:20Speaker 4: to an email to mister Jim Gaddison from Andrews. An
- 19:25Speaker 4: email memory memor memorandum. I don't think email it was
- 19:33Speaker 4: around back then, but memorandum. Let's say tight report if
- 19:38Speaker 4: you will interview with Miguel Cruz, who, as you know.
- 19:45Speaker 3: ROB was.
- 19:48Speaker 4: At the Fractae. Yes, Miguel Manuel Cruz, I believe his
- 19:53Speaker 4: middle name was. I traveled to Baton Rouge's, Louisiana to
- 19:58Speaker 4: talk to Miguel Ruz, who informed me that he was
- 20:01Speaker 4: present when Carlos Bregnier and Oswalt had the fight on
- 20:04Speaker 4: Canal Street in front of the my Son Blanche building.
- 20:09Speaker 4: Miguel's address is blah blah blah blah blah blah blah,
- 20:12Speaker 4: Stadium Street, LSU Campus telephone number blah blah blah. Miguel
- 20:17Speaker 4: Cruz is from Camaguay to Cuba and he came to
- 20:21Speaker 4: know this country in December of nineteen sixty two. He
- 20:26Speaker 4: says that he does not know Carlos Ciroga, Alberto Fowler
- 20:31Speaker 4: or Riccardo Davis. He said that he had done some
- 20:34Speaker 4: work for Alpha sixty six, whose leader is Eloy Gutierrez Minoya,
- 20:42Speaker 4: who was subsequently subsequently captured by Castro and maybe a
- 20:46Speaker 4: prisoner in Cuba at the present time. Cruz said that
- 20:52Speaker 4: The first time he saw Oswalt was on Oswalt in Premia,
- 20:55Speaker 4: had a fight on Canal Street, and that he in
- 20:58Speaker 4: Pregnire's store was informed by Celso Hernandez that Oswald was
- 21:03Speaker 4: distributing leaflets again.
- 21:05Speaker 5: Another person at the Fractice Right.
- 21:11Speaker 4: Crew said that two days before this, Oswald had come
- 21:14Speaker 4: into Brgia's store and offered to help.
- 21:16Speaker 5: Him train Cubans for the invasion of Cuba.
- 21:19Speaker 4: Oswalt show Bringia Brgier a marine training manual that he had,
- 21:24Speaker 4: and Oswalt told Brignier that this manual told how to
- 21:27Speaker 4: train people for warfare. Crew said that he and Brignier
- 21:31Speaker 4: and Hernandez left the store and immediately went to Canal Street,
- 21:35Speaker 4: where Brigney and Oswald exchanged a few words and had
- 21:38Speaker 4: the fight hang on a second.
- 21:41Speaker 3: Joe, yeah, uh, just a quick question, because this is
- 21:47Speaker 3: not it's not clicking for me. You said Miguel Torres
- 21:57Speaker 3: before this is Miguel Cruz nothing to do with Emilio Santana.
- 22:06Speaker 3: I just don't know what Miguel Cruz has to do
- 22:08Speaker 3: with Emilio Santana. I could be wrong.
- 22:10Speaker 4: I think we're gonna get there.
- 22:11Speaker 3: In the next slot, Okay, just check it. Yeah, Miguel's crossed.
- 22:17Speaker 4: No no tourres was just a random throw in there
- 22:24Speaker 4: in the document. Uh. Crew said that he was arrested
- 22:30Speaker 4: along with oswald and Brigne and sat next to Oswalt
- 22:33Speaker 4: in the police car on the way to the district.
- 22:35Speaker 4: That sounds like a good idea. He said that oswald
- 22:39Speaker 4: never said a word either in the police car or
- 22:42Speaker 4: in the district. The next time cru saw Oswalt was
- 22:45Speaker 4: when they had to go to court. We know that
- 22:47Speaker 4: we saw that video, he believes. The following day. Crew
- 22:50Speaker 4: said at the time, Oswaldt did not say anything to anyone,
- 22:52Speaker 4: blah blah. Cruz said he had never seen Oswalt any
- 22:57Speaker 4: strong looking Latin American type individuals, but he could remember
- 23:02Speaker 4: a strong looking Latin American type person around twenty five
- 23:06Speaker 4: thirty years old, and I believe u Emilio was like
- 23:11Speaker 4: twenty seven or twenty eight, who was a little taller
- 23:15Speaker 4: than Oswalt and weighed close to two hundred pounds. Remember
- 23:18Speaker 4: the stocky thick description standing in front of the Mason
- 23:24Speaker 4: Blanche building with a camera and taking pictures of Oswalt
- 23:28Speaker 4: and other people when Oswalt was distributing leaflets. There, he
- 23:31Speaker 4: asked a few people where they were from and seemed.
- 23:33Speaker 5: Interested in what was going on.
- 23:35Speaker 4: He was dressed in suit and tie and wore dark glasses.
- 23:38Speaker 4: Cru said that he did not know a couple of
- 23:41Speaker 4: scaffoozas in front of the trademark. Cru said that he
- 23:47Speaker 4: knows Emilio Santana. He can remember that Santana was driving
- 23:50Speaker 4: a big, almost new car that Santana told him he
- 23:55Speaker 4: was making money working for the CIA taking people out
- 23:59Speaker 4: of Cuba. And we will get to the CIA documents
- 24:02Speaker 4: confirming that Emilio Santana was a CIA paid employee for almost.
- 24:09Speaker 3: Three years and possibly running whoors to Texas out of
- 24:13Speaker 3: Florida and some heroin with Arcassa Smith in his big,
- 24:18Speaker 3: brand new car. Yeah.
- 24:20Speaker 4: Well, we know a lot of these Cuban exiles always
- 24:23Speaker 4: had this kind of side hustles, right, It's par for
- 24:28Speaker 4: the course for them. Cru said that Santana came to
- 24:32Speaker 4: his house one time and wanted Cruise to give him
- 24:35Speaker 4: a letter and some papers which would signify that Emelio
- 24:39Speaker 4: Santana was a member of Alpha sixty six. Santana said
- 24:43Speaker 4: that this would help him collect some money for the group.
- 24:46Speaker 4: Cru said that after Santana got the letter and some papers,
- 24:48Speaker 4: he never returned to his house. Cru said that Santana
- 24:52Speaker 4: used to hang around the Florida Avenue project by the
- 24:55Speaker 4: BNC Supermarket where there used to be a lot of Cubans.
- 25:00Speaker 4: And also they moved to the Saint Thomas Project. I
- 25:05Speaker 4: don't know if that means. I don't know if it's
- 25:07Speaker 4: like a housing project or something, but just an area
- 25:11Speaker 4: they hung around. Cruse stated that he this is kind
- 25:15Speaker 4: of where we get the follow up from last episode.
- 25:19Speaker 4: Cruse stated that he knows Arcacia by name, only that
- 25:25Speaker 4: he doesn't know David Ferry, clay Shaw, Clay bertrand doctor
- 25:30Speaker 4: Geek Tart, which is of course sylvia uncle's Sylvia Odio's uncle,
- 25:38Speaker 4: or anything about the Cubans training camp across the lake.
- 25:43Speaker 4: So now you know, Ron. We talk a lot about
- 25:47Speaker 4: the flow of documents, right, this is a counterintelligence CIA
- 25:55Speaker 4: document talking about Emilios Antenna, Galindo, Galindo Cortel. In response
- 26:05Speaker 4: to your request, subjects file was reviewed and Station JM
- 26:09Speaker 4: Wave was asked to supplement the information in headquartered files
- 26:13Speaker 4: with any additional information which would be of value and
- 26:18Speaker 4: would be in judging the effect on the agency's subjects
- 26:25Speaker 4: being identified by the Garrison Investigation or NBC. Our review
- 26:32Speaker 4: shows that subject was recruited by the agency in October
- 26:36Speaker 4: nineteen sixty two, not nineteen sixty as was reported in
- 26:41Speaker 4: an earlier memorandum. He was given limited training for use
- 26:48Speaker 4: as an area guide on an infiltration operation in which
- 26:52Speaker 4: he participated during the latter part of May nineteen sixty three.
- 26:57Speaker 4: Subject exfiltrated with his family about one week after being
- 27:02Speaker 4: infiltrated and was subsequently terminated. So here we have confirmation
- 27:09Speaker 4: he was employed by the CIA, but allegedly he exfiltrated,
- 27:14Speaker 4: which means he left after being infiltrated a week after
- 27:18Speaker 4: his family was, which doesn't really make sense. And I
- 27:22Speaker 4: have some more CIA documents that kind of contradict this
- 27:26Speaker 4: UH later in the Parrot Point, A bunch of the
- 27:30Speaker 4: staff that he had contact with UH are almost all redacted,
- 27:36Speaker 4: other than Robert G. L Wall, who I don't know
- 27:41Speaker 4: who he is, and a bunch of other Cuban exile
- 27:48Speaker 4: agents that I'm also not familiar with.
- 27:52Speaker 5: Numbering a belt to me.
- 27:53Speaker 4: But neither station, JM Wave nor headquarters have any record subjects,
- 28:01Speaker 4: whereabouts or activities between October and December nineteen sixty three.
- 28:06Speaker 4: So that's an interesting couple long time frame. Yeah, I'd
- 28:13Speaker 4: say maybe the most interesting. Now we're going to get
- 28:20Speaker 4: to the Orleans Parish grand jury testimony in Miguel Torres
- 28:27Speaker 4: in nineteen fifty seven, and this dude is very standoffish. Miguel.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Do you know the name of Miguel Torres? Now right?
- 28:37Speaker 4: Yes? Okay, yeah, Miguel, do you know the names of
- 28:42Speaker 4: some individuals involved to be in the assassination of President Kennedy?
- 28:46Speaker 5: I would like to consult my attorney.
- 28:47Speaker 3: I would like to consult my attorney.
- 28:49Speaker 4: Yeah, you can keep on saying that, because it's going
- 28:51Speaker 4: to go on for a while. Do you ever have
- 28:54Speaker 4: did you ever have vacasion to meet with Emilio Santana
- 28:57Speaker 4: and serves you a conscious smith in the thirteen hundred
- 29:01Speaker 4: block of Duphine Street in the summer of nineteen sixty three.
- 29:05Speaker 3: Since I do not have permission to consult with my attorney,
- 29:08Speaker 3: I refuse to answer on the grounds that it might
- 29:10Speaker 3: intend to incriminate me.
- 29:14Speaker 4: Miguel, do you know Lee Harvey Oswald?
- 29:17Speaker 3: I wish a permission to consult to my attorney.
- 29:20Speaker 4: God that that accent's good. Did you and Emelio Santana
- 29:24Speaker 4: go to Dallas in the fall of I believe it's
- 29:27Speaker 4: a typo nineteen sixty three.
- 29:30Speaker 3: I wish our permission to consult my attorney.
- 29:34Speaker 4: Do you know of the relationship of Emelio Santana and
- 29:37Speaker 4: Jack Ruby?
- 29:38Speaker 3: I wish a permission to consult to my attorney.
- 29:43Speaker 4: We have a statement which we have obtained from Emilio Santana.
- 29:46Speaker 4: Do you know him?
- 29:48Speaker 3: See yes?
- 29:53Speaker 4: In this statement he described a meeting with you in
- 29:55Speaker 4: New Orleans in the summer of nineteen sixty three, And
- 29:58Speaker 4: you can see the five is kind of directed to
- 30:00Speaker 4: the sixth there, which is why I believe it was
- 30:02Speaker 4: a type on the previous page, and he described Sergio
- 30:05Speaker 4: Kochia Smith as being present. You want to tell us
- 30:10Speaker 4: about this meeting.
- 30:11Speaker 3: I would like it to consult with my attorney.
- 30:14Speaker 4: Did you attend the meeting with Sergio Kochia Smith and
- 30:19Speaker 4: Emilio Santana in the thirteen hundred block of Delphine Street
- 30:23Speaker 4: in the summer of nineteen sixty three?
- 30:27Speaker 3: I did, Indeed I did. I did visit the house
- 30:33Speaker 3: in the thirteen hundred block of Dauphine. It was on
- 30:36Speaker 3: the left handed side going up uptown, and Emilio Santana
- 30:40Speaker 3: was there, and Thursday ur Kasha Smith was not there.
- 30:47Speaker 4: Do you recall telling Lynn luisl when you were first
- 30:51Speaker 4: brought down here from Angola, that Sergio Kocha was present
- 30:54Speaker 4: at the meeting?
- 30:56Speaker 3: Nope, you don't recall that. I just want to consult
- 31:00Speaker 3: to my attorney.
- 31:02Speaker 4: And at this point they like, this is long, Rob,
- 31:06Speaker 4: but they did take a break and let him consult
- 31:10Speaker 4: your attorney.
- 31:11Speaker 3: So, but just to give your contact, It's about fucking
- 31:15Speaker 3: time I get to talk to my attorney.
- 31:17Speaker 4: You just consulted your attorney, didn't you. Miguel, you did
- 31:24Speaker 4: testify that you attended a meeting in nineteen sixty three
- 31:27Speaker 4: with Amelio on Delphine? Is that right?
- 31:30Speaker 3: I do not know whether it was in nineteen and
- 31:33Speaker 3: sixty three or nineteen and sixty four.
- 31:35Speaker 4: How did you get there?
- 31:37Speaker 3: We drove? Who drove in my car?
- 31:41Speaker 4: What kind of car? Did you have?
- 31:43Speaker 3: A book? A fifty one book?
- 31:47Speaker 4: What color.
- 31:49Speaker 3: Black? Of course?
- 31:51Speaker 4: Who went with you besides Emilio?
- 31:55Speaker 3: Myself and Emilio.
- 31:56Speaker 4: Did tell you the purpose of going.
- 32:00Speaker 3: When I made this statement, there was a man living
- 32:03Speaker 3: in the house with another woman. A Mexican woman. His
- 32:06Speaker 3: name was a Sergio. I remember that much. I noticed
- 32:11Speaker 3: he had kind of greenish looking eyes, about five foot
- 32:15Speaker 3: eleven inches, athletic looking type, high cheekbones, typical Spanish mixed
- 32:23Speaker 3: with a little Indian. You know. He was with a
- 32:25Speaker 3: Mexican woman. Her name was Maria. There was another couple
- 32:30Speaker 3: lived in the house at the time that I At
- 32:33Speaker 3: the time I say this, I was so nervous. I
- 32:35Speaker 3: did not remember during the course his name.
- 32:41Speaker 4: Why did you first meet Amelio Santana?
- 32:45Speaker 3: It wasn't the latter part of a sixty three or
- 32:47Speaker 3: sixty four. I am confused about the date. I was
- 32:53Speaker 3: using many narcotics.
- 32:54Speaker 4: Then, how did you happen to meet Amelio santa.
- 33:00Speaker 3: It is such a long time ago. I think it
- 33:03Speaker 3: was in a place on Decatur Street. I think the
- 33:08Speaker 3: Copo Cabana bar, a bar frequented by the Spanish people's
- 33:13Speaker 3: and I would go there once in a while.
- 33:16Speaker 4: Did you tell you why he was in town?
- 33:18Speaker 3: No, he did not.
- 33:20Speaker 4: Did you become close friends after that?
- 33:22Speaker 3: Well, I would say more than like a like associates,
- 33:26Speaker 3: not not really friends, but not close associates more or less,
- 33:30Speaker 3: you know, acquaintances.
- 33:36Speaker 4: All right, that was fun and that was not. That
- 33:39Speaker 4: was not.
- 33:40Speaker 3: That was a big word for me.
- 33:41Speaker 4: Sorry, It's okay, Miguel, Miguel Roberto.
- 33:49Speaker 3: I consulted with my attorney now, Joe, I go to
- 33:52Speaker 3: you later, sir.
- 33:54Speaker 4: And by the way, I only clipped a couple of
- 33:55Speaker 4: part of parts of that, but he said I wish
- 33:58Speaker 4: to consult my attorney about like fifty more times. So
- 34:02Speaker 4: this is an undated CIA document about Emilio Santana and
- 34:12Speaker 4: subject is probably identifiable with Emilio Santana Galindo, who was
- 34:20Speaker 4: recruited by jam Wave in December nineteen sixty. So now
- 34:24Speaker 4: we're not at nineteen sixty two, Rob, We're back to
- 34:27Speaker 4: nineteen sixty now. He was kind of going back and
- 34:32Speaker 4: forth into Cuba as a guide and why they would
- 34:36Speaker 4: lie about this, I don't know. As a guide for
- 34:40Speaker 4: an infiltration team. Santana was paid a monthly salary under
- 34:44Speaker 4: provisions of his MOC until he was terminated on October fifteen,
- 34:50Speaker 4: sixty three. Again kind of right. When Oswalt gets a
- 34:54Speaker 4: job at the TSBT, not far Yes, when the ratline
- 35:00Speaker 4: developed by the team, the rat Lion, that's an interesting
- 35:03Speaker 4: term for exiltration. Yeah, yeah, which of course was also
- 35:10Speaker 4: used Operation paper Clip, became inoperable due to occupation of
- 35:16Speaker 4: the target area by Soviet technicians. Another compelling reason for
- 35:21Speaker 4: Santana's termination stemmed from his untruthful reporting concerning certain aspects
- 35:26Speaker 4: of the team's operations. So dude's a shady character. An
- 35:31Speaker 4: attempt to establish positive identification, Jmwave obtained a report from
- 35:37Speaker 4: the Dade County Miami Sheriff's office that an Emilia Santana
- 35:41Speaker 4: born July sixth, nineteen sixty three, so yeah, it would
- 35:45Speaker 4: have been twenty seven, was declared a fugitive from Louisiana
- 35:49Speaker 4: and federal warrant FBI sheet blah blah blah, two counts
- 35:56Speaker 4: of burglary. So he's a and he was he did
- 36:00Speaker 4: have a crypt his crip was a m Lepton and
- 36:06Speaker 4: or it was part of no he was am Lepton program,
- 36:11Speaker 4: run jointly by Ted Shackley's Miami station known as Jamwave
- 36:15Speaker 4: and James Angleton's counter Intelligence branch, aimed at spotting refugees
- 36:20Speaker 4: in the Miami area who could serve as intermediaries to
- 36:24Speaker 4: reach it ultimately recruit persons in Cuba for counterintelligence purposes.
- 36:30Speaker 4: Emilia Santana am Lepton operative in nineteen sixty three. FBI
- 36:36Speaker 4: report says Santana was alleged to own a manliquer carcano
- 36:42Speaker 4: like Oswaltz and to have been in Dealey Plaza at
- 36:46Speaker 4: the time of the assassination on orders of the alleged conspirators.
- 36:53Speaker 4: Shaw Ferry Sergiocosia Smith during June nineteen sixty four listed
- 36:58Speaker 4: CIA as employer in a loan application for a car
- 37:02Speaker 4: purchase with the RIFF number Just in case, mister Joseph Baxol's,
- 37:07Speaker 4: isn't it this allege FBI report is not available on
- 37:11Speaker 4: Mary Ferrell or any known location, So.
- 37:21Speaker 3: So you can see, folks.
- 37:24Speaker 5: Yeah, you can take it down.
- 37:25Speaker 3: Why this guy paired up with Sergio or Cassius Smith,
- 37:34Speaker 3: who was more of a planner, intelligent organizzed a guy
- 37:45Speaker 3: who didn't get his hands dirty. But this dude had
- 37:49Speaker 3: no qualms, zero qualms about being infiltrated into Cuba, Castro
- 37:57Speaker 3: Cuba to xfiltrate his members of his own family, and
- 38:05Speaker 3: that began.
- 38:06Speaker 4: And others, I'm sure others.
- 38:09Speaker 3: You know working with the CIA. This guy was an operative.
- 38:13Speaker 3: So you pair this guy with somebody of the brains
- 38:17Speaker 3: with Sergio Orcassias Smith and you got a recipe for
- 38:22Speaker 3: disaster in Dallas.
- 38:27Speaker 4: Yeah, he was alleged to be in Dallas by US
- 38:34Speaker 4: during the Garson investigation. And you know you can see why.
- 38:39Speaker 4: And when you look at his CIA employment history, if
- 38:45Speaker 4: you will, very convenient that it ends right in October.
- 38:50Speaker 3: Yeah, very convenient. And it's not just when Oswalk get
- 38:55Speaker 3: a job at the TSBD, but you have Oswald coming
- 39:00Speaker 3: back from Mexico City at the beginning of October to Dallas.
- 39:07Speaker 3: But those who were paying attention to Oswald's movements could
- 39:13Speaker 3: definitely tell that he was wrapping things up in New Orleans.
- 39:16Speaker 3: Marina's leaving. You know, he still doesn't have a job.
- 39:22Speaker 3: He's telling people, including allegedly Marina, that he's going to
- 39:27Speaker 3: Mexico City. There's other folks who alleged that they knew
- 39:31Speaker 3: he did file for the passport visa to go to
- 39:35Speaker 3: Mexico City, so that could have been known. So is
- 39:43Speaker 3: it just a coincidence that Oswald it's about the same
- 39:47Speaker 3: time as Oswald's coming back to Dallas to live. I
- 39:52Speaker 3: don't know. They could just watch this guy, see where
- 39:55Speaker 3: he gets the job, and formulate a plan from there.
- 39:59Speaker 3: Luckily them, it happened to be in Daily Plaza. Yeah,
- 40:04Speaker 3: in a seven story building right on the corner.
- 40:10Speaker 5: Yeah, and Rob.
- 40:11Speaker 4: The more I dig into this case, you know, over
- 40:16Speaker 4: the course of years and years, you know, you hear
- 40:19Speaker 4: about all these famous names of possible shooters, right like
- 40:24Speaker 4: like like some of the people were going to get
- 40:27Speaker 4: into like nic Lette or Files or you know, the
- 40:31Speaker 4: mainstream type of names. To me, it seems like it
- 40:35Speaker 4: would be Emilia. Santana's not like a common Cuban external name.
- 40:40Speaker 4: I would bet a single like less than ten percent
- 40:45Speaker 4: of the people know who he was. But I feel
- 40:49Speaker 4: like a shooter would have been one of those types
- 40:53Speaker 4: in comparison to the more famous suspects, if you will.
- 41:00Speaker 3: Yeah, especially somebody that has been in Harry situations before
- 41:04Speaker 3: knows how to keep their cool. And you know, we
- 41:08Speaker 3: don't really know anything about Santana's past or you know,
- 41:13Speaker 3: if he lost people in the Bay of Pigs, you know,
- 41:16Speaker 3: ideologically he could have been of the mindset of you
- 41:19Speaker 3: all right, fuck fuck Kennedy, because the CIA is saying, look,
- 41:25Speaker 3: Kennedy told us he was gonna send their support. You know,
- 41:29Speaker 3: the CIA is feeling these Cuban exiles heads full of
- 41:32Speaker 3: full of shit and blaming every blame, blaming everything on
- 41:36Speaker 3: the sea on Kennedy. So it's not out of the
- 41:39Speaker 3: realm possibilities. Cuban exiles have a deep, deep hatred for
- 41:42Speaker 3: Kennedy and wouldn't hesitate to do something like this as
- 41:46Speaker 3: retaliation not only for themselves but also all the people
- 41:52Speaker 3: they know that lost loved ones in the Bay of Pigs,
- 41:54Speaker 3: you know, brothers, fathers, cousins, you know, for sure, for sure,
- 42:03Speaker 3: So it was a little prodding and you know, a
- 42:06Speaker 3: little maybe some promises of assistance after the fact, but
- 42:09Speaker 3: you know, maybe some assistance in planning something like Sergio
- 42:13Speaker 3: would have been the perfect companion, if you will, to
- 42:18Speaker 3: this guy, you know, figured out a plot, a plan
- 42:23Speaker 3: for him to pull this off, and they could keep
- 42:25Speaker 3: it low key, especially in Dallas, I mean, because Akasha
- 42:30Speaker 3: wasn't in Dallas. He was in Houston, which is close
- 42:33Speaker 3: enough to put together a plan to watch from afar,
- 42:37Speaker 3: if you will, And and and you know, planned something
- 42:44Speaker 3: like this, and he got away with it, you know,
- 42:47Speaker 3: and not a lot of people really would have been
- 42:50Speaker 3: in the know about it, except for who they may
- 42:52Speaker 3: have told, which might not have been a lot of
- 42:55Speaker 3: people because it wasn't really a big Quban exile present
- 43:00Speaker 3: in Dallas, not as big as New Orleans or anything
- 43:02Speaker 3: like that. But you know, the further you get away
- 43:06Speaker 3: from Cuba, the less Cuban exiles you have, you know.
- 43:12Speaker 3: But it's certainly under the realm of possibility for me
- 43:17Speaker 3: for sure. All Right? Is that wrap up, Emilio? All right?
- 43:28Speaker 3: So let's get into a little bit about Richard kin
- 43:32Speaker 3: shall we. Yeah, aka Richard Sculsette. He was a corrupt
- 43:44Speaker 3: Chicago police officer and close associate of Sam gen Kanna.
- 43:52Speaker 3: Why is he on a podcast talking about the jfk statastination? Well,
- 43:55Speaker 3: I'll tell you. According to a biography of Sam gen
- 44:00Speaker 3: Connor written by his family, g and Conna allegedly told
- 44:05Speaker 3: his younger brother that it was Richard Cain and Charles Nicoletty,
- 44:10Speaker 3: not Lee Harvey Oswald, who were in the school book
- 44:13Speaker 3: depository on November twenty second, nineteen sixty three. According to
- 44:18Speaker 3: Michael Caine, Richard Kaine's brother, there was no evidence to
- 44:23Speaker 3: support the rumors that his half brother was directly involved
- 44:26Speaker 3: in the assassination of John F. Kennedy as a gunman
- 44:31Speaker 3: allegedly Richard Cain was at the Criminal Courts Building at
- 44:35Speaker 3: twenty six in California Streets in Chicago, Illinois, the day
- 44:38Speaker 3: of the Kennedy assassination per a John J. Flood, who
- 44:43Speaker 3: worked with Richard Kine. According to historian Lamar Waldron in
- 44:48Speaker 3: his book The Hidden History of the Jafk Assassination, published
- 44:51Speaker 3: in twenty thirteen, Richard Kine did not shoot the president,
- 44:55Speaker 3: but acted as an informant on behalf of mobster Johnny Rosselli,
- 45:00Speaker 3: where the Chicago Plot assassination attempt planned for November the second,
- 45:06Speaker 3: nineteen sixty three. So here's where things get. The little
- 45:11Speaker 3: weird Joe there are. And I have the book here, folks.
- 45:21Speaker 3: It's called The Tangles Web by Michael Caine, The Life
- 45:27Speaker 3: and Death of Richard Kane, Chicago Cop and Hitman. And
- 45:31Speaker 3: that is him right there in the glasses right.
- 45:38Speaker 4: Now.
- 45:39Speaker 3: Michael Caine was his half brother. They shared a father.
- 45:44Speaker 3: Richard Kin was seventeen years older than Michael Kane, so
- 45:50Speaker 3: Michael Caine never really knew his brother because by the
- 45:55Speaker 3: time that he was old enough to comprehend life, Michael
- 46:00Speaker 3: Cain or Richard Cain, had done left the family nest
- 46:03Speaker 3: and moved on with his own life. He saw him
- 46:06Speaker 3: every once in a while, but never really knew him.
- 46:10Speaker 3: Knew him, Okay, So don't get that twisted. But so
- 46:19Speaker 3: a little bit about Richard Caine. He was Irish and
- 46:23Speaker 3: Italian American raised in Chicago and Michigan. He joined the
- 46:29Speaker 3: Army at age seventeen and was stationed in the United
- 46:32Speaker 3: States Virgin Islands from forty seven to fifty. Again, not
- 46:36Speaker 3: a bad gig if you can get it right. I mean,
- 46:38Speaker 3: where else would you rather be stationed in nineteen forty
- 46:41Speaker 3: seven other than the Virgin Islands? Sure, I mean that's
- 46:45Speaker 3: a pretty sweet gig. Yeah, chilling on the beach. While there,
- 46:51Speaker 3: he became fluent in Espanol.
- 46:53Speaker 4: Joe, Okay, makes sense.
- 46:56Speaker 3: Before going back to Chicago in fifty one, Cain worked
- 46:59Speaker 3: as an investigator at the Burns Detective Agency in Dallas, Texas.
- 47:05Speaker 4: Another private investigator in our street.
- 47:09Speaker 3: This miw you, I mean, this whole Richard Kine thing
- 47:11Speaker 3: is fucking weird, So pay attention. Despite his grandfather having
- 47:18Speaker 3: been a prominent sewer contractor, Hello.
- 47:23Speaker 4: That's interesting.
- 47:24Speaker 3: Who was killed by the Chicago mob in Little Italy
- 47:27Speaker 3: in nineteen twenty eight, Cain would later become a close
- 47:31Speaker 3: associate of Sam g and Conna. While Cain worked as
- 47:35Speaker 3: an officer in the Chicago Police Department during the mid fifties,
- 47:39Speaker 3: he served as a bag man between corrupt police officials
- 47:44Speaker 3: and the mob. Okay. Taking a leave of absence from
- 47:51Speaker 3: the Chicago Police Department in nineteen sixty, Cain took a
- 47:54Speaker 3: temporary assignment as part of the investigation team assembled by
- 47:59Speaker 3: Assistant US Attorney Richard Ogilvie to prosecute then Outfit Boss
- 48:03Speaker 3: Anthony Accardo. Joe who you may have heard of.
- 48:07Speaker 4: Yes, we covered him on our episode of Carline. What
- 48:14Speaker 4: was that double b again?
- 48:22Speaker 3: Thank you, Trusy Brown, god dressing sir. Okay, So we
- 48:30Speaker 3: were Tony Accardo, who we know was the big the
- 48:35Speaker 3: big swinging dick in Chicago, right. Yes, yes, they're trying
- 48:39Speaker 3: to prosecute then Outfit Boss Anthony Ricardo, and media interviews
- 48:44Speaker 3: came alluded to having been deported from Mexico in nineteen
- 48:49Speaker 3: sixty one following an arrest for taking part in unauthorized
- 48:52Speaker 3: CIA operations to train Cubans for the Bay of Pigs invasion.
- 48:58Speaker 3: So this guy has got tentacles or testicles, if you will,
- 49:05Speaker 3: and all the various locations important to this case. I
- 49:10Speaker 3: mean we're talking Dallas, Mexico City, Chicago.
- 49:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 49:18Speaker 3: Oh, and by the way, training Cuban exiles for the
- 49:23Speaker 3: CIA while being a corrupt cop and friend to the mob,
- 49:29Speaker 3: the Chicago mob. That's not it's crazy. After his death,
- 49:37Speaker 3: Washington's sources confirmed off the record that these claims were true.
- 49:41Speaker 3: He also claimed to have worked with the US State
- 49:43Speaker 3: Department tracing the flow of American money into communist hands.
- 49:49Speaker 3: Came returned to Chicago in early nineteen sixty two to
- 49:54Speaker 3: support Ogilvy in his campaign to be the Cook County Sheriff.
- 49:58Speaker 3: He was elected Cook County Sheriff, so then Sheriff Ogilvy
- 50:02Speaker 3: hired Kin as chief investigator of the Cook County Sheriff's office,
- 50:06Speaker 3: and during this time, Kane led the investigation that resulted
- 50:09Speaker 3: in a notorious fun lounge police raid. In nineteen sixty four,
- 50:15Speaker 3: Kine was fired for lying to a grand jury regarding
- 50:20Speaker 3: his involvement in a scheme to resell confiscated drugs back
- 50:24Speaker 3: to known criminals. So he's going in the evidence room
- 50:29Speaker 3: and grabbing big piles of fucking heroin and cocaine and
- 50:32Speaker 3: reselling it back to his mafia contacts. Oh yeah. He
- 50:39Speaker 3: was subsequent subsequently convicted of poejery and served six months
- 50:45Speaker 3: in prison, concurrent with a four year sentence from nineteen
- 50:50Speaker 3: sixty eight for being an accessory to bank robbery. Cain
- 50:56Speaker 3: was finally parolled in nineteen seventy one. After his parole,
- 51:04Speaker 3: Caine made frequent trips to and from Mexico as Sam
- 51:08Speaker 3: g and Conna's courier and financial advisor. Cain became a
- 51:14Speaker 3: key figure in g and Conna's money skimming from casinos
- 51:17Speaker 3: in Central America and Iran. What yeah, yeah, Apparently Giancanna
- 51:26Speaker 3: had a casino in Iran during this time, conspiring to
- 51:31Speaker 3: control of the city's illegal gambling operations. He began working
- 51:34Speaker 3: as an FBI in format now for agent William Romer,
- 51:40Speaker 3: allegedly muscling out his rivals by dropping a dime on
- 51:45Speaker 3: them to federal authorities. So he's eliminating his competition by
- 51:49Speaker 3: ratting out his competition to the FBI and stepping in
- 51:54Speaker 3: and taking over their game. So you can see where
- 51:58Speaker 3: we're going here. Not the most popular person in Chicago
- 52:02Speaker 3: at this point, Okay. On December twentieth, nineteen and seventy three,
- 52:11Speaker 3: Richard Kin was killed by masked gunmen in Roses Sandwich
- 52:16Speaker 3: shop in Chicago. Witnesses reported that no more than fifteen
- 52:21Speaker 3: minutes before the attack, Cain had been talking with four
- 52:24Speaker 3: other men who were not present when the gunman actually arrived.
- 52:29Speaker 3: Two of these four men were reported to have left
- 52:31Speaker 3: using a back door. At the time of the gunman's arrival.
- 52:34Speaker 3: Cain was seen talking to an unidentified woman in black joe.
- 52:39Speaker 3: The gunman carried a shot a shoddy a pistol, and
- 52:43Speaker 3: a two way radio that they used to communicate with
- 52:45Speaker 3: an outside lookout. They ordered the shop staff and patrons,
- 52:51Speaker 3: including Cain, against the wall, but did not speak directly
- 52:54Speaker 3: to Cain. They asked several of them if they had
- 52:57Speaker 3: any money, and asked who's got the package. Caine was approached,
- 53:02Speaker 3: pulled slightly away from the wall, and shot directly in
- 53:06Speaker 3: the head with the shotgun. As he fell, the second
- 53:10Speaker 3: gunman also shot him in the head. Cane's assailants reportedly
- 53:16Speaker 3: removed an item from one of his pockets before fleeing.
- 53:19Speaker 3: The unidentified woman left at the same time as the gunman.
- 53:24Speaker 4: As if the shot to the head with the shotgun
- 53:27Speaker 4: wasn't enough.
- 53:28Speaker 3: Yeah, after the shot to the head of the shotgun
- 53:31Speaker 3: with a pistol wasn't enough, right. Uh So again, where
- 53:36Speaker 3: are we here at this time?
- 53:38Speaker 4: Uh?
- 53:38Speaker 3: During the early seventies, Cain became involved in a burglar
- 53:41Speaker 3: burglary ring masterminded by outfit capo Marshall Kaifano. It has
- 53:50Speaker 3: been speculated that Kaifano had learned of Caine's informant status
- 53:54Speaker 3: and received permission from Toniocardo to murder Kin. Kaifano was
- 53:59Speaker 3: reported to have been in Roses sandwich shop only two
- 54:02Speaker 3: hours before Cain's murder. After Caine's death, the Chicago Tribune
- 54:06Speaker 3: reported to Cain had once bugged Kaifano's bedroom for the FBI.
- 54:19Speaker 3: Cain was also reported to have been arguing violently with
- 54:22Speaker 3: senior outfit figure Gus Alex before Caine's death over Caine's
- 54:25Speaker 3: plans to organize a twelve day gambling cruise for Chicago
- 54:30Speaker 3: high rollers off the Florida coast. So that's kind of
- 54:38Speaker 3: the life that he lived, right, lived by the sword,
- 54:43Speaker 3: you die by the sword. Yep. So what do we
- 54:48Speaker 3: actually have document wise about this mofo Richard Cain? Well,
- 54:59Speaker 3: we got a co couple things This is from nineteen
- 55:01Speaker 3: and sixty seven October. And I believe this is a
- 55:08Speaker 3: CIA document.
- 55:09Speaker 4: Yeah, I see, did I see? Says there Security first
- 55:14Speaker 4: s rss RS.
- 55:17Speaker 3: Yeah. So what this is about is a memorandum this
- 55:30Speaker 3: June fifth, sixty seven memorandum in close copies of several
- 55:33Speaker 3: sixty three to sixty four documents from the Chicago Field
- 55:37Speaker 3: Offices file on Kine. It appears DCS is cleaning out
- 55:42Speaker 3: their files ari E. Lee Harvey Oswald. Okay, let me
- 55:46Speaker 3: show that to you again bottom of the first paragraph.
- 55:51Speaker 3: It appears DCS is cleaning out their files on Lee
- 55:54Speaker 3: Harvey Oswald. And again this is a subject matter about
- 55:58Speaker 3: Richard Kane. Subject, it is obvious, has been a source
- 56:05Speaker 3: of information regarding an alleged discussion of the assassination of
- 56:08Speaker 3: President Kennedy at a secret meeting of the Fair Play
- 56:12Speaker 3: for Cuba Committee held in Chicago in February of nineteen
- 56:16Speaker 3: sixty three. So apparently they had information that Richard Kane
- 56:25Speaker 3: was at a Fair Play for Cuba Committee meeting in
- 56:27Speaker 3: Chicago in nineteen sixty three. Around got around bro. He
- 56:35Speaker 3: was also the source of information regarding the alleged attempt
- 56:38Speaker 3: recruitment into the Communist Party of Young Cubans in the
- 56:42Speaker 3: Chicago area by one Guillermo Escobar, who, according to the
- 56:46Speaker 3: Chicago Office, was one of horse Speeds leads obtained from
- 56:50Speaker 3: Ralph Perez. I don't know what all that means, but
- 56:54Speaker 3: blah blah blah, blah blah. Caine was in fact on
- 56:56Speaker 3: a two months leave sickly from the Cook County Sheriff's
- 57:00Speaker 3: office at this time, as he was said to be,
- 57:02Speaker 3: or was on a political undercover assignment when Cohen inferred,
- 57:06Speaker 3: involved tapping the telephones of gubernatorial candidate Charles Percy and
- 57:11Speaker 3: other political figures. So again, this Richard Kaine Due Joe
- 57:15Speaker 3: was a professional type level fucking wire tapper. Okay, we'll
- 57:21Speaker 3: get more into that in a second. During a review
- 57:26Speaker 3: of Kine's security file, I noted a message regarding him
- 57:30Speaker 3: from Mexico City, April twenty fifth, nineteen sixty two, which
- 57:34Speaker 3: mentioned a Willard Andrews, a reputable American businessman in Mexico
- 57:40Speaker 3: who obviously had been had contact of some kind with Kine,
- 57:45Speaker 3: as well as with a CIA representative in Mexico City,
- 57:50Speaker 3: to whom Andrews had commented that Kine claims to have
- 57:53Speaker 3: been with the OSS during World War II. A copy
- 57:56Speaker 3: of this memorandum is attached. In answer to this message,
- 58:00Speaker 3: requested traces on Cain headquarters and furnishing limited information obtained.
- 58:05Speaker 3: A regarding to him advised that neither his claimed employment
- 58:08Speaker 3: by OSS nor a claim he made to have worked
- 58:11Speaker 3: with Task Force W Hello Bill Harvey could be substantiated.
- 58:17Speaker 3: The station was advised that he did have a legitimate
- 58:19Speaker 3: detective lab in Chicago. The first time Caine came to
- 58:24Speaker 3: the attention of the Security Office was when the Mexico
- 58:27Speaker 3: station requested traces on him. There requests them from an
- 58:32Speaker 3: unannounced visit he made to the station, during which he
- 58:36Speaker 3: stated that he had an investigative agency in Mexico with
- 58:39Speaker 3: branches in Chicago and LA. Now, if you're not in
- 58:43Speaker 3: the know, Joe, how the fuck are you going to
- 58:45Speaker 3: know where the Mexico City Station is at in Mexico?
- 58:49Speaker 3: And do you have balls enough to go up and
- 58:50Speaker 3: start knocking on the fucking door.
- 58:54Speaker 4: I wouldn't think so.
- 58:55Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't see, you know, telling them all about
- 58:59Speaker 3: what all you can do and hoping they hire you
- 59:01Speaker 3: to do something. Man takes Cajone's Yeah, But again, how
- 59:07Speaker 3: do you know where the Mexico City station is. If
- 59:11Speaker 3: you're not connected to some point to somebody who would.
- 59:15Speaker 4: Know, right, I mean, you would know where the embassy
- 59:18Speaker 4: would be in theory, right yeah, yeah.
- 59:22Speaker 3: But not the station headquarters. You know what I'm saying.
- 59:26Speaker 4: Yes?
- 59:27Speaker 3: Yeah. He also stated that his agency in Mexico was
- 59:31Speaker 3: for the purpose of training Mexican government agents and police methods,
- 59:34Speaker 3: investigative techniques, and the use of lie detectors, and it
- 59:38Speaker 3: added that he was investigating communism in a certain unnamed
- 59:42Speaker 3: Central American country. In June of sixty two, the Mexico
- 59:47Speaker 3: Station advised that Kane was being deported by the Mexican
- 59:51Speaker 3: Ministry of Gobinacion for these violations. Joe, he was carrying
- 59:57Speaker 3: a loaded revolver and brass knuckle.
- 1:00:01Speaker 4: Wow.
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: Number two, he was impersonating a Mexican government official he
- 1:00:07Speaker 3: had id as an investigator for the Mexican Treasury Office.
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: Number three, he was violating his tour.
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: Can I stop you? How do you even know what
- 1:00:19Speaker 4: that identification would look like to make a fake one
- 1:00:24Speaker 4: of it?
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: Right? And you're going to walk around Mexico impersonating a
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: government official carrying a loaded revolver and brass knuckles in
- 1:00:32Speaker 3: your pocket. Apparently that violated his tourists permit by working
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: at his detective office and at the Mexican Treasury. I
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: mean it gets it's crazier and crazier. Subject was allegedly
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: of interest to the DCS in September of sixty three.
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: Note these dates, folks, when an ad hoc clearance was
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: requested to permit his being asked to respect on to
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: general requirements regarding his knowledge of certain Cuban refugees and
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: their potential for foreign positive intelligence. On ten September nineteen
- 1:01:12Speaker 3: sixty three, the DCS was sent a memorandum which furnished
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: much of the above information on King.
- 1:01:20Speaker 4: Domestic contact service.
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, sir, Yeah, They wanted to know what he
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: knew about certain Cuban refugees and their potential for foreign
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: positive intelligence in September of sixty three. On May twenty second,
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: nineteen sixty seven, the Director of Security indicated that he'd
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: received information from the FBI which ties subject to the
- 1:01:50Speaker 3: mafia in Chicago. The DCS was also advised that if
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: they weren't contact with him, it was suggested that they
- 1:02:02Speaker 3: break it off. On twenty five May sixty seven, the
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: DCS advised that there had been no contact with Kaine
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: since nineteen sixty three interesting year, and furnished copies of
- 1:02:16Speaker 3: eight reports for which subject had been the source of information.
- 1:02:19Speaker 3: These had to do with anti castro keeping activities, procurement
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: of arms, et cetera. On May twenty nine, sixty seven,
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: Security advised the DCS that there is a current FBI
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: investigative interest in the subject and recommend that there'd be
- 1:02:35Speaker 3: no further contact with him at this time. So this
- 1:02:38Speaker 3: is the CIA getting information from the FBI that the
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: FBI is saying, Look, we're looking into this motherfucker. He's
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: dirty as hell and best you don't have any of
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: your people around him for the first evil future.
- 1:02:51Speaker 4: But can I stop you there? But he was an
- 1:02:55Speaker 4: FBI informant by then or after.
- 1:03:00Speaker 3: After Okay, not yet, Okay, I see after he gets
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: busted or it's about the same time he probably becomes
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: an FBI format they try to bust his ass, right, Yeah,
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: maybe for some reduced charges, if you.
- 1:03:18Speaker 4: Will, Joe, or some cooperation.
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: September one, nineteen sixty seven copy of Life magazine contains
- 1:03:27Speaker 3: an article entitled Brazen Empire of Organized Crime, in which
- 1:03:31Speaker 3: it has stated that Sammy g and Coana, the head
- 1:03:35Speaker 3: of the Chicago Coast and Ostra, is still running things
- 1:03:38Speaker 3: by remote control from a hide out in Mexico, where
- 1:03:42Speaker 3: he poses as Richard Sculls or Ricardo Scullstti. The real Skullzetti,
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: g and Conna's erstwhile chauffeur and courier is more familiar
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: to chicagoan's as Richard Kine, a well known former Chicago
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: policeman and more recently private investigator. So I guess gen
- 1:04:04Speaker 3: Kanna trusted this guy so much he was using Richard
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: Kaine's alias the real because he says, the real Richard Scalzetti,
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: gen Conna's erstwhile chauffeur and courier was known as Richard Kaine.
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: And they published this shit in September of nineteen sixty
- 1:04:21Speaker 3: seven in Life Magazine says there is a copy of
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: the above referred to September article of Life Magazine in
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: which Kane has described as the erstwhile chauffeur in Courier.
- 1:04:38Speaker 3: The second of these articles makes reference to the alleged
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: friendly contacts of Jim Garrison of the Oswald case with
- 1:04:43Speaker 3: henchmen of the coastin Ustra in the Louisiana area. Hello,
- 1:04:46Speaker 3: Carlos Morcello, here's where things get weird. And this is
- 1:04:56Speaker 3: kind of from Lamar Waldron's standpoint. This is he connects
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: some dots that maybe you can connect, maybe you can't. Well,
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: let's you decide. This is from December eleventh, nineteen sixty seven.
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: The subject is and we're still with CIA documents. The
- 1:05:15Speaker 3: subject is a New York Times article of December sixty
- 1:05:19Speaker 3: seven entitled plot on Kennedy in Chicago told, and It's saying.
- 1:05:25Speaker 3: The attached to article reports that Abraham Bolden, a former
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: Secret Service agent who is now a prisoner at Federal
- 1:05:32Speaker 3: Medical Center in Springfield, Missouri, told three lawyers that quote
- 1:05:37Speaker 3: the agency had known before President Kennedy's assassination that an
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: attempt to kill him had been planned. The three lawyers
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: were identified as Mark Lane, Richard Burns, and John Hosmer,
- 1:05:54Speaker 3: a former judge and prosecutor from Marshfield, Missouri, on which
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: we have no further information. Everybody knows who Mark Lane is.
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: I assume did you know he was Abram Boulder's lawyer?
- 1:06:04Speaker 4: I did not know that.
- 1:06:06Speaker 3: The lawyers said that their information had come from two
- 1:06:09Speaker 3: days of talks with Bolden, who was sentenced in Chicago
- 1:06:11Speaker 3: two years ago to six years in prison for having
- 1:06:15Speaker 3: conspired to sell official information in a counterfeiting case. Bolden's
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: attorney claimed that Bolden had told him that he had
- 1:06:23Speaker 3: been sent to prison after having been refused permission to
- 1:06:26Speaker 3: tell the Warrant Commission about his alleged information. There is
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: no security file on Bolden, but references to three newspaper
- 1:06:35Speaker 3: articles in May sixty four were traced and revealed the
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: following information. Abram Bolden, aged twenty nine, in nineteen sixty four,
- 1:06:43Speaker 3: the first Negro assigned to the Secret Service detail guarding
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: the President, was charged with trying to sell a file
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: to a man indicted for counterfeiting. Bolden said he was
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: framed because he intended to reveal details of heavy drinking
- 1:06:57Speaker 3: and general laxity among Secret Service agents assigned to President Kennedy.
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: Bolden said he was going to tell his story to
- 1:07:04Speaker 3: the Warren Commission. The US attorney Edward Hanrahan observed that
- 1:07:08Speaker 3: the accuracy of Bolden's charges should be judged by the
- 1:07:12Speaker 3: fact that the man who made them was silent from
- 1:07:16Speaker 3: nineteen sixty one until after he was arrested. Let's see Apparently,
- 1:07:33Speaker 3: it was reported in the same article that one of
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: Bolden's attorneys said he would direct his client not to
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: testify if subpoena before the Warren Commission in Washington, and
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: added that Bolden accepted this advice. This refusal was unexpected
- 1:07:45Speaker 3: and contradicted Bolden's statement at the time of his arrest.
- 1:07:48Speaker 3: So what they're saying here Bolden's telling one story that says, well,
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: they wouldn't let me testify the Warren Commission, But in
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: actuality Bolden refused to tell to testify before the Warren
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: Commission and tell them anything. So why does this matter
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: about Richard kan Where's that by Richard Kane? Right? A
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: memorandum Joe dated in November twenty ninth, nineteen sixty three,
- 1:08:14Speaker 3: in the file of one Richard Kane, concerning an interview
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: he had with the representative of the agency's Chicago contact office,
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: contained the following unevaluated information. Kine, at that time was
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: employed by the Cook County Sheriff's Office and said that
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: the Cook County Sheriff's Office received information that early in
- 1:08:33Speaker 3: sixty three, the Chacoma or the Chickam shy Cooms whatever
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: that means, Shy Comms took over operations in the US
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: for the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. In February sixty three,
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: a secret meeting of the committee was held at the
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: nine oh seven South Spaulding, Chicago, under the direction of
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: Richard c Riley, secretary of the Chicago chapter of the
- 1:08:57Speaker 3: Fair Play for Cuba Committee. At this meeting, the assassination
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: of the President of the US was discussed. An FBI
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: report of May twenty six, nineteen sixty concerned a trip
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: by Richard c Riley and his wife to Havana in April.
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: Caine then added the information that Lee Oswald purchased the
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: rifle that was using the assassination of President Kennedy in
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: March of sixty three. Oh, by the way, where's Cleines located, Joe.
- 1:09:25Speaker 4: That would be Chicago, HM clin Sporting does Yeah.
- 1:09:30Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah yeah. Cain said that the Cook County Sheriff's
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: office had not established that Oswald was at the February meeting. However,
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: they had strong suspicions that Oswald was in Chicago that
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: February of sixty three, which is doubtful, but who the
- 1:09:54Speaker 3: fuck knows, right.
- 1:09:55Speaker 4: Yeah, you can always take a bus.
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: Yeah, In theory, David very line up there. All certain
- 1:10:02Speaker 3: things are happening in the cockpit, hey now. Cain said
- 1:10:10Speaker 3: that there was animosity between Sheriff Ogilvy and the FBI,
- 1:10:14Speaker 3: and that Ogilvy had directed Kane to conduct an investigation
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: into the matter himself and cut out the FBI. Cain
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: inferred in the interview that if his investigation established anything definite,
- 1:10:26Speaker 3: the Cook County Sheriff's office would probably probably inform the FBI,
- 1:10:31Speaker 3: but not definitely, So that's a little interesting. These are
- 1:10:38Speaker 3: all CIA files, folks. Richard Kine, Chicago Private Dick first
- 1:10:42Speaker 3: became our first became of agency interest when he visited
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: Mexico City Station unannounced in April sixty two. He claimed
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: to have been employed by the OSS in nineteen forty
- 1:10:54Speaker 3: three and by the Fronte Revolutionaryo Democratico, an agency sponsored
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: Cuban exile organization, in nineteen sixty one. These claims cannot
- 1:11:05Speaker 3: be substantiated by agency records. He told the station he
- 1:11:09Speaker 3: added investigative agency in Chicago with branches in Mexico for
- 1:11:13Speaker 3: the purpose of police training. Blah blah blah blah blah.
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: Kane also said he was investigating communism in Central America.
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: No clearance was requested or granted by the Western Hemisphere
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: Division at this time for Kane's use. Subsequently, in June
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: of sixty two, information was received that Kane was deported
- 1:11:31Speaker 3: by Mexican authorities for him. Yeah, we talked about this
- 1:11:34Speaker 3: loaded gun, brass knuckles, impersonating a government official, and blah blah,
- 1:11:38Speaker 3: blah blah. September of sixty three, Joe, a request for
- 1:11:43Speaker 3: contact clearance was received from the agency's Chicago Field office
- 1:11:47Speaker 3: and the above information was furnished for consideration in determining
- 1:11:51Speaker 3: the extent and level of Kane's use. In addition to
- 1:11:55Speaker 3: the interview detailed above, Kane also furnished eight reports concerning
- 1:11:59Speaker 3: exile Cuban active in the Chicago area. So again we're
- 1:12:05Speaker 3: September of sixty three. The CIA has operational interest in
- 1:12:08Speaker 3: Richard Kane. That's that's sus It is sus.
- 1:12:17Speaker 4: Now.
- 1:12:18Speaker 3: The whole reason I mentioned the Abraham Bolden deal right,
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: is because Lamar Waldron seems to be under the impression
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: that Richard Kine was the guy that set up Abraham
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: Bolden to put his ass in jail. He was the
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: alleged he was posing as a counterfeitter, and he's the
- 1:12:43Speaker 3: one that's set up Bolden. I that's Lamar Waldron speaking.
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: I don't think that's out of the realms of possibility
- 1:12:56Speaker 4: based on the whole resume you just discussed about him.
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: Yeah, so Bolden nor his attorney Mark Lane does not
- 1:13:07Speaker 3: indicate that CIA had information in this regard. But it
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: is of interest to note that an unsavory character known
- 1:13:15Speaker 3: as Richard Kin, who was in touch with the agency's
- 1:13:19Speaker 3: contact office in Chicago in sixty three, passed information of
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: a similar import to the agency's Chicago contact office. Cain,
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: at that time was employed by the Cook County Sheriff's Office.
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: Blah blah blah.
- 1:13:37Speaker 5: Let's see.
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: Excuse me. So we move over from Lamar Waldron accusations
- 1:13:44Speaker 3: in Richard Kane to some interesting things that Bill Simpitz
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: seems to think about Richard Kane. Oh interesting, Yeah, this
- 1:13:54Speaker 3: comes from his State secret the conclusion part of it.
- 1:13:59Speaker 3: And we're talking first about a guy named Clark Simmons
- 1:14:04Speaker 3: David Morales. David Sanchez Morales had a close relationship with
- 1:14:09Speaker 3: Clark Simmons, who served as c slash Western Hemisphere slash
- 1:14:15Speaker 3: four slash CI chief of Western Hemisphere count Intelligence, Cuba
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: in nineteen sixty one and Chief Investigations and Operational Support
- 1:14:25Speaker 3: for the Cuban Division sas and sixty five. Simmons was
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: intimately familiar with the duties of various AMOT teams in
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: Miami during September of sixty three. There's that date again.
- 1:14:38Speaker 3: Sas iOS was in the thick of the amtrunk operation
- 1:14:42Speaker 3: as well as trying to get as Q's colleague am
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: Leo Three's wife out of Cuba. I think it is
- 1:14:49Speaker 3: crucial to learn much more about Simmons and specifically everything
- 1:14:52Speaker 3: we can about the sas iOS. If you're conducting an assassination,
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: operational support is exactly what you need. Simmons had to
- 1:15:00Speaker 3: know how to get it done. Sasios knew a lot
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: about Richard Kane, the crooked cop in Chicago who worked
- 1:15:08Speaker 3: with Sam g and Conna and Johnny Roselli. The CIA's
- 1:15:12Speaker 3: Office of Security chief was so nervous about Cain in
- 1:15:15Speaker 3: nineteen sixty seven that he lied and said that the
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: agency had never employed or utilized him. While the Chicago
- 1:15:22Speaker 3: Field office referred to Cain in nineteen sixty one as
- 1:15:25Speaker 3: quote our private eye. During nineteen sixty two, Kane also
- 1:15:32Speaker 3: claimed to work for Gyrose Bill Harvey's Task Force w
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: although Witten's branch reported that Kine's claim could not be substantiated.
- 1:15:42Speaker 3: In October of sixty three, the Office of Security disapproved
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: any use of Kin as a source, as it repeated
- 1:15:50Speaker 3: the finding of no substantiation. I concluded that Kin was
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: an inside source for Bill Harvey himself. Caine's skills with
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: wire taps, as well as his myriad connections with the
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: Chicago criminal underground, were just what Harvey and ROSSELLI needed,
- 1:16:08Speaker 3: And the words of Peter Dale Scott quote a CIA
- 1:16:11Speaker 3: component willing to collaborate with g and Conna's men in
- 1:16:14Speaker 3: assassination would certainly have no problem in recruiting gian Conna's
- 1:16:18Speaker 3: electronics expert for a wire tap operation. Yeah ding ding Ding.
- 1:16:26Speaker 3: Cain had a reason to be mad at Mexico City
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: Station Chief Win Scott. Cain had been deported from Mexico
- 1:16:33Speaker 3: in June of sixty two based on a tip to
- 1:16:36Speaker 3: Interior Minister Gustavo Diaz that Caine was investigating Mexican citizens.
- 1:16:42Speaker 3: This tip came to Diaz after Caine visited Scott at
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: the Mexico City Station looking for work and telling him
- 1:16:47Speaker 3: how he was training Mexican government agents in investigative techniques.
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: Just one of Kane's classes alone included twenty three students
- 1:16:57Speaker 3: approved by the Federal Police. The federales described the participants
- 1:17:01Speaker 3: as quote representing every law enforcement agency in Mexico, from
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: the equivalent of the FBI down to local police di has.
- 1:17:10Speaker 3: His tip led to the discovery that Caine was impersonating
- 1:17:13Speaker 3: a Treasury agent, probably a DFS officer, while he was
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: working at the Treasury Department in Mexico and conducting these trainings.
- 1:17:22Speaker 3: Caine spoke Spanish, had a Mexican wife, and enjoyed living
- 1:17:25Speaker 3: in Mexico much of the time. He had wire tapped
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: Joe the Czech Embassy in.
- 1:17:33Speaker 4: Mexico a little die prefix.
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: Yeah, what are the odds of that? Oh, it's pretty
- 1:17:45Speaker 3: far crazy, yeah, says The odds are good that Caine
- 1:17:49Speaker 3: trained one or more of the very DFS and Mexican
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: Army officers that worked inside the Intercept Center in Mexico City.
- 1:17:56Speaker 3: A connection with any of the officers at the Intercept
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: Center would have been an ideal way for somebody like
- 1:18:01Speaker 3: Harvey or Morales to introduce false information about Oswald within
- 1:18:06Speaker 3: the Insecure Lee Lee l I Envoy wiretaps system. Cain's
- 1:18:12Speaker 3: efforts to wiretap the county building on behalf of the
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: Sheriff's office was a staple in the local Chicago news.
- 1:18:18Speaker 3: Stanley Figelac pseudonym Horace Goley of the Special Affair Staff
- 1:18:26Speaker 3: specifically sought out Kane for a meeting about a month
- 1:18:28Speaker 3: before the Oswald visit to Mexico Come on down. Days later,
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: Staff d took a long look at Kane, and so
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: did John Tilton during the midst of his reports on
- 1:18:44Speaker 3: the Chicago Fair Play for Cuba committee. Kane was closely
- 1:18:47Speaker 3: in touch with Juan Salvat. Maybe you've heard of him,
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: Joe Yes, the Miami based DRE Big Swinging Dick. Although
- 1:19:00Speaker 3: the Miami based DRI is best known for being sponsored
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: by the Psychological Warfare chief George Joannides, Salvat reported that
- 1:19:08Speaker 3: his group was secretly being sponsored by quote the Pentagon,
- 1:19:11Speaker 3: which is in competition with the CIA. Okayig Act told
- 1:19:19Speaker 3: Cain to get away from the DRE. You get away
- 1:19:27Speaker 3: from them.
- 1:19:28Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like they were competing again.
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: This is Stanley Figilac from the Special Affairs Staff telling
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: Cain to stay away from the dre.
- 1:19:41Speaker 4: Okay, seems like some inter agency drama going on there.
- 1:19:45Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some fukery here. Bro Allegedly an ex Army
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: intelligence officer. We know Kin helped out the CIA during
- 1:19:53Speaker 3: the early sixties as an informant. Cain had gone to
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: Cuba to assassinate Castro in nineteen sixty. I mean, this
- 1:20:02Speaker 3: motherfucker's everywhere doing everything all at once. It's crazy. He
- 1:20:10Speaker 3: barely escaped with his life, obviously not killing Castro. Tilton
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: learned about Kin's work just days before starting his own
- 1:20:19Speaker 3: anti FPCC program. Both Simmons and Kin had a history
- 1:20:24Speaker 3: of investigating the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. We we
- 1:20:27Speaker 3: don't know yet is whether Kin worked with Simmons or
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: Tilton officially. We do know that Simmons work with CIA
- 1:20:32Speaker 3: security staff official Joseph Langan. In the outrageous attempt to
- 1:20:37Speaker 3: cover up the American origin of the planes that conducted
- 1:20:39Speaker 3: a surprise attack on Castro's planes right before the Bay
- 1:20:42Speaker 3: of Pigs, Ambassador Ambassador Adelaie Stevenson publicly claimed that this
- 1:20:48Speaker 3: surprise attack was the work of internal Cuban defectors and
- 1:20:52Speaker 3: was furious to find out that he had been lied
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: to by his own people. Right, excuse me, God, damn uh,
- 1:21:06Speaker 3: let's see ernest Ignatio Aragon. Okay, this dude uh had
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: a lot of inside knowledge and it was part of
- 1:21:26Speaker 3: Angleson's ci staff. But after the assassination, Aragon wrote one
- 1:21:31Speaker 3: of the first memos about the violently anti Kennedy Manual
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: Rodriguez Querbario. Rodriguez was five foot nine and identified as
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: Oswald during one of his visits to Sulfur, Oklahoma. Rodriguez
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: deserved then and deserves now much closer scrutiny as a
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: possible Oswald double. Interesting. Interesting given simmons attempt to hide
- 1:21:59Speaker 3: the American origin of the planes at the Bay of Pigs, which,
- 1:22:02Speaker 3: if true, was an act of treason. How could Simmons
- 1:22:05Speaker 3: be trusted with the practices of the Secret Service. The
- 1:22:08Speaker 3: internal procedures of the Secret Service are among the crown
- 1:22:10Speaker 3: jewels of the United States. If you can't protect your leaders,
- 1:22:13Speaker 3: you can't protect anything. So this cane dude is all
- 1:22:21Speaker 3: over the freaking place.
- 1:22:22Speaker 4: Man, it's crazy. He's the forest gump of I don't
- 1:22:27Speaker 4: know what.
- 1:22:29Speaker 3: So I believe The last document I have here is
- 1:22:31Speaker 3: from nineteen seventy four, and it is a CIA document, okay,
- 1:22:41Speaker 3: concerning Salvator G and Conna and Richard Kin. Now, of
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: course by this time Cain is dead, okay, and they're
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: hauling mister Salvator G and Kanna, you know, to Washington.
- 1:23:00Speaker 3: Had to about this.
- 1:23:00Speaker 4: Time either church church or pipe committee or something.
- 1:23:05Speaker 3: Yeah, things are not going well for the mafia at
- 1:23:08Speaker 3: this time, that's for sure. It says a routine name
- 1:23:13Speaker 3: check was conducted on Salvator Chakna with negative results because
- 1:23:18Speaker 3: was his name Salvator like his real name?
- 1:23:24Speaker 4: Maybe I don't know.
- 1:23:28Speaker 3: I don't I look that up. Well, I got through here,
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: because obviously if his name wasn't really Salvator G and Conna,
- 1:23:34Speaker 3: then of course you're gonna get negative results, okay, when
- 1:23:38Speaker 3: you're looking on a routine name check. Because I can't
- 1:23:42Speaker 3: believe for a second that as much shit that was
- 1:23:46Speaker 3: going on with Sam G and Conna as CIA back
- 1:23:48Speaker 3: in the sixties, that they had nothing on this motherfucker.
- 1:23:51Speaker 4: It was his birth name was Salvator, it.
- 1:23:54Speaker 3: Was okay, but maybe they didn't call him Salvator when
- 1:24:00Speaker 3: dealing with him later, who knows. Anyway, we were advised
- 1:24:08Speaker 3: that any inquiries concerning this matter should be made to
- 1:24:11Speaker 3: a mister Scott Breckinridge, Deputy Inspector General Western Hemisphere. COG.
- 1:24:17Speaker 3: Touch base with mister Breckinridge, who said that he had
- 1:24:19Speaker 3: received a copy of the referenced article. We have developed
- 1:24:22Speaker 3: the following information on Richard Kain. He dropped out of
- 1:24:25Speaker 3: the first year of high school in nineteen forty seven
- 1:24:27Speaker 3: and listed in the US Army, where he served until
- 1:24:30Speaker 3: nineteen fifty. Following his army service, he was associated with
- 1:24:34Speaker 3: investigative enterprises in Miami and Chicago. In fifty six, he
- 1:24:38Speaker 3: entered the Chicago Police Department Vice Squad, where he remained
- 1:24:41Speaker 3: until sixty Concurrent with that employment, he operated the Accurate Laboratories,
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: a private investigative business. Listed below is a chronology of
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: CIA contacts with Kin. Followed nineteen sixty, he initiated contact
- 1:24:55Speaker 3: with the d CD Chicago Field Office and voluntarily provided
- 1:24:59Speaker 3: information on the activities of Cuban exile groups in the
- 1:25:02Speaker 3: Chicago area. That is, as early as the fall of
- 1:25:05Speaker 3: nineteen sixty. June sixty one, Cain contacted mister Lowman of
- 1:25:10Speaker 3: the Chicago Field Office to report an approach made to
- 1:25:14Speaker 3: him by mister Kruponsky. Who reportedly was negotiating with the
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: President of Panama to investigate communism in Panama. Cain was
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: to assist Kruponsky in this endeavor. Summer sixty one, Kine
- 1:25:26Speaker 3: was met in Mexico by a CIA staffer identity unknown,
- 1:25:29Speaker 3: Purpose unknown.
- 1:25:32Speaker 4: Did you say did Aragua?
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: Panama?
- 1:25:36Speaker 4: Panama?
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: Panama? October sixty one, Cain wrote to mister Loman from Panama.
- 1:25:42Speaker 3: He reported on his findings of attitudes towards the US
- 1:25:45Speaker 3: in certain Central American countries and offered his services to
- 1:25:47Speaker 3: the agency. April sixty two, Kine made an unannounced visit
- 1:25:51Speaker 3: to agency representatives at the Mexico City Station and informed
- 1:25:55Speaker 3: then blah blah, yeah, we went, We've been through that.
- 1:25:59Speaker 3: Junior sixty two came as deported from Mexico. Been through that.
- 1:26:03Speaker 3: August nineteenth, nineteen sixty three, Cain was met at the
- 1:26:09Speaker 3: Lake Shore Drive Athletic Club and Adolph's Club in Chicago
- 1:26:15Speaker 3: by Western Hemisphere Division staff officer redacted and the chief
- 1:26:21Speaker 3: of the Chicago DCD office. The contact report states that
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: in the distant future, Cain would like to work overseas
- 1:26:30Speaker 3: with the CIA. It was pointed out to Kane that
- 1:26:33Speaker 3: his current cooperation with the CIA might be of benefit
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: to him should he apply for employment with the CIA
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: in the future. At this time, Cain worked for the
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: Cook County Sheriff's Office. Blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah.
- 1:26:46Speaker 3: Twenty sixth and thirtieth August nineteen sixty three, information from
- 1:26:51Speaker 3: Cain to the DCD Chicago office was passed to the
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: Cuba desk at Headquarters information concerning reported Miro Cord his
- 1:27:00Speaker 3: interest in purchasing arms from some place in Chicago. September eleventh,
- 1:27:10Speaker 3: nineteen sixty three. Redacted requested a PCSACSA on Cain, but
- 1:27:15Speaker 3: there is no indication that it was ever done. Twelve
- 1:27:20Speaker 3: September sixty three, Cain reported to the Chicago Field office
- 1:27:23Speaker 3: information on persons claiming to be reps of the DRE
- 1:27:28Speaker 3: who purchased arms for the DRE. Cain planned another meeting
- 1:27:32Speaker 3: with the alleged DRE reps. Redacted via DCD Washington and
- 1:27:37Speaker 3: DCD Chicago got word to Cain to quote, get the
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: hell out of the picture as soon as possible, and
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: to make no commitments. These try to fuck up an
- 1:27:49Speaker 3: ongoing cIAP. Wow.
- 1:27:57Speaker 5: The sky's all over the place.
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: Bro April seventy two, came returned to Chicago from Mexico City,
- 1:28:05Speaker 3: then disappeared May one, seventy two, saying he was going
- 1:28:09Speaker 3: to Latin America. Caine allegedly was involved in illegal international
- 1:28:13Speaker 3: arms deals on various occasions, stating that he worked for
- 1:28:16Speaker 3: the CIA. May sixteen, seventy two, an FBI agent in
- 1:28:20Speaker 3: Mexico asked redacted for traces on Kane. According to the FBI,
- 1:28:25Speaker 3: and Eastern Airlines pilot had identified Kine as the skyjacker
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: who forced him to fly to hon Duras on five
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: May nineteen seventy two.
- 1:28:40Speaker 4: Bro, Was he dB Cooper?
- 1:28:42Speaker 3: That's the last point I was getting to. Apparently was
- 1:28:48Speaker 3: dB Cooper before D B. Cooper was dB Cooper? But
- 1:28:55Speaker 3: same year, just in May, not November? Right, interesting, But
- 1:29:03Speaker 3: apparently he did hijack Eastern Airlines plane and got away
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: with it. Yeahdas, I mean you gotta get to Panama somehow.
- 1:29:11Speaker 4: Right fu. Yeah? And of course the Eastern Airlines connection
- 1:29:15Speaker 4: with David Ferry is extremely interesting, yes, for those that
- 1:29:20Speaker 4: haven't put that together.
- 1:29:22Speaker 3: So there is a lot to unpack with one Richard Kane.
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: Are the allegations of Sam g and Kanna to be
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: believed about him and Nicoletti shooting the president from the
- 1:29:40Speaker 3: school book depository. There are people out there who think
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: that in order to sell a book, you gotta finger
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: some people, you gotta name some names. And who better
- 1:29:50Speaker 3: than two guys who were already dead by that point,
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: who could not defend themselves any longer. You got to
- 1:29:57Speaker 3: remember this dude came was gen Conna's right hand man
- 1:30:03Speaker 3: for a little while, all right, So who better? Right?
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: Who better? Who better? Joe?
- 1:30:09Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, as was nicol Letty. As we'll get into.
- 1:30:13Speaker 3: Two dead scaffooses that you knew real well, who you
- 1:30:18Speaker 3: knew probably wouldn't mind being accused of killing the president, right,
- 1:30:23Speaker 3: not if they were dead, they wouldn't mind. If you
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: want to know more about the Richard Kaine story, the
- 1:30:27Speaker 3: book is called The Tangled Webb by Michael Caine, his
- 1:30:31Speaker 3: step brother. So very cool. I think it's only like
- 1:30:37Speaker 3: eleven bucks, it's not too thick, and uh yeah, does
- 1:30:43Speaker 3: he look anything like D. B. Cooper?
- 1:30:45Speaker 5: Joe? Uh?
- 1:30:50Speaker 3: I mean, if we got a full face frontal shot,
- 1:30:54Speaker 3: maybe yeah.
- 1:30:55Speaker 4: With maybe a little more of a receding hairline, I
- 1:30:57Speaker 4: would say, and without the glasses I wouldn't say it's
- 1:31:01Speaker 4: like completely far off.
- 1:31:04Speaker 3: Yeah, could have also been the zodiacullar as well. Who mean,
- 1:31:09Speaker 3: who knows.
- 1:31:12Speaker 4: Maybe we'll have to ask John about if anyone in
- 1:31:15Speaker 4: that community John Lennback, of course, if if anyone has
- 1:31:19Speaker 4: ever because you know, people in the dB Cooper community
- 1:31:24Speaker 4: like kind of attached to a suspect. I wonder if
- 1:31:30Speaker 4: anyone has with Kane. It's interesting though, it is interesting.
- 1:31:36Speaker 4: I don't know what parachuting history he may have or
- 1:31:39Speaker 4: may not have had, but.
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: He was in the army.
- 1:31:45Speaker 4: I'm just saying eighty second or one or first he
- 1:31:49Speaker 4: was jumping.
- 1:31:51Speaker 3: Out of airplanes in the US Virgin Islands. Yeah, that's uh,
- 1:31:58Speaker 3: that's Richard Kane. And I'd never really looking to him before, folks,
- 1:32:01Speaker 3: and I'd heard the name, I'd heard the accusations, never
- 1:32:05Speaker 3: really paid much attention to him. And I was like, well,
- 1:32:09Speaker 3: holy shit, right, I came across something somewhere and I
- 1:32:14Speaker 3: was like, wait a minute, I mean taking another look
- 1:32:17Speaker 3: at this dude, and I was like whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 1:32:20Speaker 3: Started finding all these documents. I'm like, what have I
- 1:32:23Speaker 3: never heard of this dude before? But yeah, he's in
- 1:32:25Speaker 3: a lot of interesting places at interesting times.
- 1:32:28Speaker 4: Joe, definitely. I mean, especially when we talk, especially when
- 1:32:33Speaker 4: we talk about like Mexico City and at the anti
- 1:32:37Speaker 4: fair Play for Cuba committee stuff, and you know, has
- 1:32:43Speaker 4: showing up at the station in Mexico City almost gives
- 1:32:48Speaker 4: me like Oswald vibes showing up at like Soviet embassy
- 1:32:53Speaker 4: right with the gun and placing him on the table.
- 1:32:56Speaker 4: It's it's weird.
- 1:33:00Speaker 3: Oh and apparently he was also he was also responsible
- 1:33:07Speaker 3: for dropping the dime about the Cubans being in Chicago,
- 1:33:11Speaker 3: for the note for the Chicago.
- 1:33:12Speaker 4: Plot, right and the boldened kind of connection.
- 1:33:16Speaker 3: Apparently he was the reason that they got arrested or
- 1:33:20Speaker 3: the plot got broken up. So there's all kinds of
- 1:33:23Speaker 3: crazy stuff with Richard Kane.
- 1:33:25Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm telling.
- 1:33:27Speaker 4: You no, thank you. I mean I really knew precious
- 1:33:31Speaker 4: a little about him as well. So what a I mean,
- 1:33:36Speaker 4: just like think about it, like some police officer from
- 1:33:40Speaker 4: Chicago doing these South American trips and Mexico City trips.
- 1:33:46Speaker 3: And it's working for the CIA and then the FBI
- 1:33:52Speaker 3: and the mafia and the mafia.
- 1:33:55Speaker 4: It's like, you know, there was a good comment earlier.
- 1:34:01Speaker 4: Let me see if I can find it.
- 1:34:04Speaker 8: Uh, sorry, there are a lot of comments professional skufuza.
- 1:34:19Speaker 4: Hey, Timothy Ryan. I mean I I think he was
- 1:34:25Speaker 4: maybe more like someone for hire, like information for higher
- 1:34:30Speaker 4: type of thing, like some I don't want to say
- 1:34:34Speaker 4: rogue actor, but I mean listen, when when you're that
- 1:34:38Speaker 4: close to the Chicago Mob you have information to give
- 1:34:44Speaker 4: or sell or trade.
- 1:34:47Speaker 3: Or drugs to steal and sell or trade.
- 1:34:51Speaker 4: Hey, Roger, this is an awesome episode.
- 1:34:53Speaker 3: Boys.
- 1:34:54Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been fun so far, and we're gonna get
- 1:34:56Speaker 4: a little fun in a sect. But he Yeah, that's crazy.
- 1:35:01Speaker 4: I didn't know about that. I'm gonna have to read
- 1:35:03Speaker 4: that book.
- 1:35:07Speaker 3: He's considered one of the Suspicious deaths. Yeah, you know,
- 1:35:14Speaker 3: along with Sam g and Connon.
- 1:35:18Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, but like you said, lived by the sword,
- 1:35:23Speaker 4: died by the sword type of thing.
- 1:35:24Speaker 3: And you're double crossing so many fucking big, big place
- 1:35:29Speaker 3: dude right in waters. You shouldn't be dipping him in.
- 1:35:33Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, you're gonna get it eventually.
- 1:35:35Speaker 3: Again, who walks into the Mexico City station of the
- 1:35:38Speaker 3: CIA in nineteen sixty three and ask to work for him?
- 1:35:45Speaker 3: I mean, it's crazy, and he's got connections to William
- 1:35:48Speaker 3: Harvey and Johnny Rosselli Task Force. W Come on, man,
- 1:35:53Speaker 3: the hell.
- 1:35:56Speaker 4: James said, could make a good Scorsese movie. Who would
- 1:36:00Speaker 4: play Cane?
- 1:36:02Speaker 3: Well, funny you mentioned that, because at the end of
- 1:36:05Speaker 3: this book, apparently let's see here says here. Apparently he
- 1:36:24Speaker 3: had a literate side. He wrote letters, he wrote short stories.
- 1:36:27Speaker 3: He even wrote a movie treatment about the Bay of
- 1:36:29Speaker 3: Pigs on the strength of his personal experiences training Cuban
- 1:36:32Speaker 3: exiles in Chicago, Miami, Mexico, Guatemala, and some say even
- 1:36:36Speaker 3: in Cuba. He reportedly tried to sell it to Hollywood,
- 1:36:39Speaker 3: bull was ultimately unsuccessful. He says, I've read and have
- 1:36:44Speaker 3: copies of most of the things he wrote, and they
- 1:36:45Speaker 3: show a sensitivity that was rarely in evidence in real life.
- 1:36:51Speaker 3: But it does say in the book that this book
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: was optioned in twenty eighteen by somebody. Somebody bought the
- 1:37:02Speaker 3: rights to it to make a movie out of it,
- 1:37:04Speaker 3: but apparently never did.
- 1:37:07Speaker 4: But interesting, Yeah, for sure, thank you for that, sir.
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: That was that was fascinating.
- 1:37:16Speaker 5: Man.
- 1:37:17Speaker 3: Jum, We're welcome. Let's get into Chucky Nicoletti.
- 1:37:22Speaker 4: Chucky Nicoletti. Wow, this is of course another Chicago mafia
- 1:37:29Speaker 4: Skufuza and I'm reading from my other laptop here. It
- 1:37:35Speaker 4: was an Italian American mobster affiliated with the Outfit, functioning
- 1:37:40Speaker 4: as a professional hit man during the mid twentieth century.
- 1:37:45Speaker 4: Known within organized circles for his enforcement role, Nicoletti operated
- 1:37:50Speaker 4: under bosses including Sam g and Connon. Of course we've
- 1:37:54Speaker 4: been talking about, contributing to the outfits violent control over gambling, extortion,
- 1:38:00Speaker 4: and labor rackets in the Chicago area. He was born
- 1:38:06Speaker 4: in Chicago in nineteen sixteen to Italian American immigrants Philip
- 1:38:14Speaker 4: Nicoletti and Grace Alessi. Why is it all the Guineas
- 1:38:17Speaker 4: are getting all the hate. He was assassinated on March
- 1:38:26Speaker 4: seventy seven, not twenty ninth, nineteen seventy seven, shot three
- 1:38:32Speaker 4: times in the back of the head, while seated in
- 1:38:36Speaker 4: his automobile in the parking lot of an Illinois restaurant.
- 1:38:42Speaker 4: So that makes me think it was someone close who
- 1:38:48Speaker 4: was in the car with him. If it was from
- 1:38:50Speaker 4: the back, I mean I guess I could have been outside.
- 1:38:54Speaker 3: Probably a hit.
- 1:38:55Speaker 4: Yeah. Ironically, Rob he was killed the same day as
- 1:39:00Speaker 4: George de Moor and Shield.
- 1:39:03Speaker 3: Yeah, all part of these mysterious seven.
- 1:39:06Speaker 4: Dis Yeah, both men were due to appear before the HSCA,
- 1:39:11Speaker 4: where they were to be asked about their involvement in
- 1:39:13Speaker 4: the assassination of JFK. Let's see from the nineteen fifties onward,
- 1:39:31Speaker 4: Nicoletti advanced under San Giancanna, who assumed de facto control
- 1:39:36Speaker 4: of the outphit in nineteen fifty seven after accardo strategic
- 1:39:41Speaker 4: withdrawal Tony Ycardo to advoor advisory status sorry declassified FBI
- 1:39:50Speaker 4: informant reports consistently identify Nicolette as g and Conna's lieutenant,
- 1:39:55Speaker 4: responsible for executing sensitive assignments that reinforced is the boss's
- 1:40:00Speaker 4: authority during expansions into Las Vegas and casinos and Midwest
- 1:40:07Speaker 4: jurisdictions he was. His status as a trusted subordinate persisted
- 1:40:14Speaker 4: through Giacma's nineteen sixty six self imposed exile to Mexico
- 1:40:19Speaker 4: amid federal scrutiny from the Velachi hearings. Right the first
- 1:40:25Speaker 4: guy to turn rat essentially and electronic surveillance exposures. Let's
- 1:40:36Speaker 4: go down to the JFK area. So there are no
- 1:40:45Speaker 4: my search. There are no really primary source documents relating
- 1:40:49Speaker 4: Nicoletti to the JFK assassination. Almost all the documents rob
- 1:40:54Speaker 4: are FBI surveillance on the mob, which kind of is
- 1:40:59Speaker 4: to be expected. But your boy, James Files, a convicted
- 1:41:06Speaker 4: murderer serving a life sentence in the nineteen eighty one
- 1:41:09Speaker 4: killing of a businessman Fred Foreman, alleged interviews beginning in
- 1:41:14Speaker 4: nineteen ninety four, so we're talking thirty one years later,
- 1:41:18Speaker 4: that he fired the fatal shot at President JFK from
- 1:41:22Speaker 4: the grassy Nolan Daily Plaza. Well that Files did, and
- 1:41:26Speaker 4: that Nicoletti participated as a shooter or coordinator in the
- 1:41:31Speaker 4: plot orchestrated by the Chicago outfit. Files claimed Nicolette, positioned nearby,
- 1:41:38Speaker 4: File fired additional rounds, with the operation motivated by the
- 1:41:43Speaker 4: outfit's resentment towards the Kennedy administration's aggressive prosecutions led by
- 1:41:49Speaker 4: Attorney General Robert of Kennedy, which of course targeted mob figures,
- 1:41:56Speaker 4: including Sam Genkana. Proponents of these theories site Gecana's prior
- 1:42:01Speaker 4: collaborations with the CIA on anti Castro operations as facilitating
- 1:42:07Speaker 4: logistical overlaps that could enable such a hit framing, and
- 1:42:11Speaker 4: his retaliation for federal crackdowns that disrupted outfit gambling and
- 1:42:17Speaker 4: union rackets in the early nineteen sixties. These assertions lack
- 1:42:24Speaker 4: empirical corroboration, as no ballistic evidence from the crime scene matches, weapons,
- 1:42:31Speaker 4: or ammunition linked to Nicoletti or files An eyewitness and
- 1:42:35Speaker 4: eyewitness accounts of the Grassy Knol activity remain inconsistent and
- 1:42:41Speaker 4: uncoorroborated by physical traces like self shellcasings attributed to a
- 1:42:46Speaker 4: second shooter. Files credibility is undermined by his history of
- 1:42:52Speaker 4: fabricating stories for personal gain well incarcerated, including prior inconsistent
- 1:42:59Speaker 4: detail of course involvement in the CIA mafia collaborations. In
- 1:43:09Speaker 4: the early sixties, CIA initiated cover operations to assassinate Fidel Castro,
- 1:43:15Speaker 4: recruiting elements of organized crime syndicates to exploit their expertise
- 1:43:20Speaker 4: and anti Castro motivations following the nineteen fifty nine Cuban Revolution.
- 1:43:27Speaker 4: These efforts documented declassified records from the nineteen seventy five
- 1:43:31Speaker 4: Church Committee investigation involved in intermediaries like Robert Mayhew hiring
- 1:43:38Speaker 4: mafia figures such as Johnny Roselli, who turned enlisted Chicago
- 1:43:43Speaker 4: outfits boss Sam g and Kanna, and Tampa mobster Santas
- 1:43:48Speaker 4: Traficante for proposed methods including poison cigars, diving, contaminated diving suits,
- 1:43:55Speaker 4: explosive seashells, etc. So what do we really have? And
- 1:44:04Speaker 4: you know the interesting thing, Rob and I looked this up.
- 1:44:07Speaker 4: Uh do you remember the podcast Rob Reiner, who was
- 1:44:12Speaker 4: unfortunately killed by his son last year? And uh, solid
- 1:44:18Speaker 4: Dad O'Brien, I believe.
- 1:44:20Speaker 3: He's saying there's not gonna be a second season.
- 1:44:22Speaker 4: There's not gonna be a second season. Okay, but they
- 1:44:27Speaker 4: did name four shooters too soon soon? Uh? And I
- 1:44:35Speaker 4: guess the four shooters they named Harmonio diez Garcia. And
- 1:44:38Speaker 4: I didn't listen to it, but I had to relook
- 1:44:40Speaker 4: this up. Harmonio diez Garcia, Jean Schoutree right, who we've
- 1:44:46Speaker 4: talked about before the course again, Charles Nicoletti, and Jack Cannon.
- 1:44:55Speaker 5: Who worked under figures like Charles Willoughby.
- 1:45:00Speaker 3: So, by the way, Willoughby was killed in nineteen seventy
- 1:45:02Speaker 3: two as well, same year as King or I'm sorry, yeah,
- 1:45:06Speaker 3: same year as King, No before King, try.
- 1:45:11Speaker 4: Yeah, a little before and they say he was you know,
- 1:45:17Speaker 4: in the dal tax building or the county records building.
- 1:45:23Speaker 3: And whether depository building or or.
- 1:45:28Speaker 4: The overpass railroad area. So I found one thing, and
- 1:45:36Speaker 4: I believe it's an FBI document, although it didn't exactly say,
- 1:45:45Speaker 4: and if you could share that for me, sir, Oh shit,
- 1:45:53Speaker 4: So yeah, there you go, all right, and this is
- 1:46:02Speaker 4: I guessed a report on James Files in August ninth.
- 1:46:08Speaker 4: Oh wow, damn, why is all these things that have
- 1:46:11Speaker 4: to be my birthday? Nineteen ninety three, agents asked Files
- 1:46:17Speaker 4: if he had driven Nicolette to places where Nicoletti met
- 1:46:21Speaker 4: other mobsters. Files was unable to recall any details in
- 1:46:25Speaker 4: that regard. Files then remarked that what he recalled any
- 1:46:29Speaker 4: occasion when Nicolette popped somebody while they were driving together
- 1:46:34Speaker 4: on Lake Shore Drive, that would be Chicago. Files refused
- 1:46:38Speaker 4: to furnish any details in regard to this incident. Files
- 1:46:42Speaker 4: recalled that he did not have telephone service at his
- 1:46:47Speaker 4: Melrose Park residence. Files recalled that Nicoletti usually telephonically contacted
- 1:46:52Speaker 4: him at the Harlow Guerrilla, where he Files had frequently
- 1:46:57Speaker 4: had frequented to play pinball at the time. Files were
- 1:47:03Speaker 4: called that he drove a yellow slash green color Sorry.
- 1:47:10Speaker 4: Nineteen fifty five, Pontiac agents asked File to furnish his
- 1:47:16Speaker 4: physical description during that time. Period. Files furnished agents with
- 1:47:20Speaker 4: a colored photograph of a white male, so he had
- 1:47:24Speaker 4: the photograph with him. I guess medium build with short
- 1:47:27Speaker 4: black hair. Files stated that the photograph was taken of
- 1:47:30Speaker 4: him during the above time period. Physical observation of Files
- 1:47:35Speaker 4: reflects that Files as a white male five eleven tall, long,
- 1:47:40Speaker 4: white hair, medium build. Agents asked Files to name the
- 1:47:43Speaker 4: person who could verify his relationship with Nicoletti. He names
- 1:47:47Speaker 4: a bunch of Italians. Of course, I'm not going to
- 1:47:51Speaker 4: go through them because I don't know them, and I don't.
- 1:47:53Speaker 3: Think how many of them were dead. I bet a
- 1:47:56Speaker 3: bunch at this point about all of them.
- 1:47:58Speaker 4: Yeah. Uh. Files, when asked by agents, stated that he
- 1:48:06Speaker 4: did not know the identify individuals. Identity had the individuals
- 1:48:11Speaker 4: who murdered Nicoletti. Agents then made reference to the jfk assassination.
- 1:48:16Speaker 4: Files stated that Nicolette Nicoletti told him that he got
- 1:48:20Speaker 4: the contract to hit Kennedy from Sam g and Kanna.
- 1:48:24Speaker 4: Files then advised that before Kennedy was shot, Files, at
- 1:48:27Speaker 4: the request of Nicoletti, transported guns and hand grenades in
- 1:48:31Speaker 4: a car from Chicago to Dallas. Files advised that he'd
- 1:48:35Speaker 4: heard Nicolette and an individual he knew was Johnny Rosselli
- 1:48:38Speaker 4: planned the assassination of Kennedy. And again, Files had a
- 1:48:43Speaker 4: long time to read about this stuff in jail, so
- 1:48:47Speaker 4: agents asked Files if he actually saw Nicoletti shoot Kennedy.
- 1:48:51Speaker 4: Files stated that he did not actually see Nicoletti shoot Kennedy.
- 1:48:54Speaker 4: Files added that since Nicoletti planned the assassination and was
- 1:49:00Speaker 4: there by and was there by the Dalla tex building,
- 1:49:04Speaker 4: he knows that Nicoletti was the one who shot at Kennedy, which,
- 1:49:10Speaker 4: of course that statement doesn't really make sense, and it
- 1:49:16Speaker 4: kind of goes on and on. I'm not going to
- 1:49:22Speaker 4: read the rest of this because.
- 1:49:23Speaker 3: It's kind of James Files horseshit.
- 1:49:27Speaker 4: Yeah, but I mean he's an interesting character, definitely. You know,
- 1:49:38Speaker 4: of course he was named and the Rob Reiner thing
- 1:49:41Speaker 4: and stuff like that. But is there any tangible proof
- 1:49:45Speaker 4: or any documentary record that he was in Dallas other
- 1:49:50Speaker 4: than like allegations and secondhand stuff. Not really. When you
- 1:49:54Speaker 4: go to Spartacus and you know at the bottom they
- 1:49:57Speaker 4: have primary and secondary sources. One is Chauncey. Holt was
- 1:50:04Speaker 4: interviewed by John Craig and Gary Shaw for Newsweek magazine
- 1:50:08Speaker 4: in nineteen ninety one where he names Nicoletti, and then
- 1:50:11Speaker 4: you have the James File confession three years later in
- 1:50:15Speaker 4: nineteen ninety four. And again we're pushing thirty years, thirty
- 1:50:20Speaker 4: plus years in the Files case of these allegations, and
- 1:50:27Speaker 4: again no primary documents whatsoever. So I guess to wrap up, Rob,
- 1:50:37Speaker 4: out of the three suspects alleged suspects that we have
- 1:50:44Speaker 4: discussed tonight, which one do you think would be the
- 1:50:49Speaker 4: most likely out of the three. And I think I
- 1:50:51Speaker 4: know your answer, and I think we're gonna have the
- 1:50:53Speaker 4: same answer to have possibly taken part in the conspiracy
- 1:51:02Speaker 4: to assass named president Kenna.
- 1:51:06Speaker 3: Well, look, it's interesting. All of it's interesting. And now
- 1:51:24Speaker 3: I was thinking in my head, when did the book
- 1:51:27Speaker 3: Double Cross come out about Sam and Chuck G and Kanna?
- 1:51:32Speaker 3: Or it was by Chuck G and Kanna, but it
- 1:51:34Speaker 3: was about Sam gan Conna where he alleges that it
- 1:51:37Speaker 3: was Nicoletti and Kine And the book came out March twentieth,
- 1:51:46Speaker 3: nineteen ninety two. What's interesting is the interview you just
- 1:51:51Speaker 3: showed with James Files was done in nineteen ninety one.
- 1:51:55Speaker 4: No, I believe it was ninety.
- 1:52:02Speaker 3: Well, I'm pretty sure it was ninety one. Pop that
- 1:52:04Speaker 3: ship back up there real quick.
- 1:52:06Speaker 4: All right, yeah, let me do that. Oh yeah, let
- 1:52:10Speaker 4: me do that.
- 1:52:17Speaker 3: Ninety three, Okay, ninety three. So the Gencana book comes
- 1:52:22Speaker 3: out before James Files says anything about Nicoletti. So there
- 1:52:28Speaker 3: you go. I was gonna say, if this was dated
- 1:52:29Speaker 3: ninety one, that would be interesting, right before the book
- 1:52:36Speaker 3: came out. He's gonna throw Nicoletti's name out there. But
- 1:52:40Speaker 3: what it seems to me is that at some point
- 1:52:42Speaker 3: in ninety two, old James Files got his hands on
- 1:52:46Speaker 3: Double Cross and read it, him being from Chicago, him
- 1:52:50Speaker 3: may having some loose affiliation with the mafia there as
- 1:52:55Speaker 3: a very low level scumbag whatever the fuck, right, inserted
- 1:53:00Speaker 3: himself into the Richard Kine portion of these allegations, and
- 1:53:06Speaker 3: you know, instead of being Richard Caine, it's him and
- 1:53:09Speaker 3: Nicoletti in Dallas.
- 1:53:10Speaker 4: Right. So I.
- 1:53:16Speaker 3: Have never and never probably will put any kind of
- 1:53:23Speaker 3: importance or corroboration to the James Files story about Nicoletti.
- 1:53:28Speaker 3: And to your question about of the three we talked
- 1:53:32Speaker 3: about here this evening, I think that Emilio Santana certainly
- 1:53:38Speaker 3: had some the operational capabilities to do this for sure,
- 1:53:44Speaker 3: with the right guidance from people like Arkasha, because man,
- 1:53:51Speaker 3: I mean, you didn't hear it, Joe, but uh, I went,
- 1:53:55Speaker 3: I went deep on fucking smith Man, Sergey Arkasha. He's
- 1:54:00Speaker 3: got some uh and if you haven't those on members only.
- 1:54:04Speaker 3: But went real deep with with Sergio. And he had
- 1:54:10Speaker 3: a lot of connections. He was in the right places
- 1:54:15Speaker 3: at the right times, and he was very connected, if
- 1:54:21Speaker 3: you will, with the Cuban exile community in UH New Orleans.
- 1:54:30Speaker 3: And after he was pushed out of the c r
- 1:54:33Speaker 3: C for misappropriation of funds, I came across some documents
- 1:54:39Speaker 3: that he was actually behind the scenes, you know, the
- 1:54:42Speaker 3: the Friends of Democratic Cuba, that that that guy Banister
- 1:54:45Speaker 3: was a part of writing and all that he was
- 1:54:48Speaker 3: actually the one behind the scenes, not named as as
- 1:54:53Speaker 3: the head, the head guy actually pulling the strings for
- 1:54:55Speaker 3: the Friends of Democratic Cuba, telling them, encouraging them to
- 1:55:00Speaker 3: in corporate rate, telling them what they need to do
- 1:55:02Speaker 3: to raise money, and YadA, YadA, YadA. I think it
- 1:55:05Speaker 3: was a plan to get out from under the thumb
- 1:55:07Speaker 3: of the CIA, if you will, because these groups, these
- 1:55:11Speaker 3: various groups in New Orleans weren't getting money from Miami,
- 1:55:15Speaker 3: the headquarters of these groups. You know, they weren't sharing
- 1:55:19Speaker 3: their quarter of a million dollars a month with these
- 1:55:23Speaker 3: outreaching you know, delegates, if you will, of these various
- 1:55:26Speaker 3: Cuban extyle groups. So I think Smith orchestrated them to
- 1:55:33Speaker 3: incorporate their own deal, their own organization to where they
- 1:55:39Speaker 3: would control their own money, right, possibly do some things
- 1:55:45Speaker 3: to maybe garner the favor of the CIA just into
- 1:55:48Speaker 3: sponsoring them, right right, Very savvy when it came to money.
- 1:55:57Speaker 4: You know, yeah, look what we couldn't do for you
- 1:56:00Speaker 4: type of thing, right, you know.
- 1:56:02Speaker 3: And he's got the various connections because I came across.
- 1:56:08Speaker 3: I came across. I don't know if I.
- 1:56:15Speaker 4: If you put it in the burn bin yet.
- 1:56:17Speaker 3: I think I did put it in the burn bin already,
- 1:56:21Speaker 3: but I came across it was uh oh man, it was.
- 1:56:27Speaker 3: It was a list of actually you know what it
- 1:56:31Speaker 3: is not in the burn bin. Oh, it is on
- 1:56:34Speaker 3: this computer. I think unless I deleted it, which is possible.
- 1:56:41Speaker 3: Uh I did, but it could be it could be
- 1:56:48Speaker 3: in the recycle bind still they deleted. Let's see if
- 1:57:06Speaker 3: I can find this thing here sort by date? Uh huh.
- 1:57:17Speaker 3: I think I got it, hold on, hold the phone
- 1:57:27Speaker 3: your store. Okay, all right, let's see if I got
- 1:57:34Speaker 3: it somewhere here, because what it was interesting because what
- 1:57:42Speaker 3: it did, Joe, is it listed? Where the fuck are you?
- 1:57:53Speaker 3: Where is my tab?
- 1:57:57Speaker 4: There?
- 1:57:57Speaker 3: You are?
- 1:57:57Speaker 4: Okay, I lost my even Robbie tabbs. I understand, I
- 1:58:07Speaker 4: have way too many tabs of them.
- 1:58:09Speaker 3: Now let me let me scroll down here. What it
- 1:58:12Speaker 3: was was, uh so Sergio or conscious Smith had a
- 1:58:17Speaker 3: lot of connections to people like David Ferry, Gordon Novelle,
- 1:58:23Speaker 3: Richard Rudolph Davis, all of the CIA connected Cuban exiles
- 1:58:29Speaker 3: and and uh in there, damn, it's not the right
- 1:58:36Speaker 3: it's not the right file. Well that sucks anyway. It
- 1:58:42Speaker 3: was basically a list of c RC members that was
- 1:58:46Speaker 3: turned over by Louis Rebell to the FBI, specifically Warren
- 1:58:53Speaker 3: de Breese. Warren de Breze. Uh he got a copy
- 1:59:01Speaker 3: of this incorporated members and their positions in the CRC
- 1:59:05Speaker 3: from Louis Rebel after Smith got kicked out, and then
- 1:59:09Speaker 3: he got also a list from Arnsto Rodriguez. So they're
- 1:59:13Speaker 3: both informed to the FBI while being CIA connected, right right,
- 1:59:20Speaker 3: and they're outing all these people that are in the
- 1:59:23Speaker 3: organization of the CRC. And did you know Carlos Brignier
- 1:59:30Speaker 3: was in the CRC before he was the dri delegate?
- 1:59:33Speaker 3: I did, yes, uh ar Nesto Rodriguez. Let's see. I'm
- 1:59:42Speaker 3: oh I might have I might have it. Here. Hold
- 1:59:46Speaker 3: on because there's a name that I missed when we
- 1:59:50Speaker 3: were going through them that I saw later and I
- 1:59:52Speaker 3: was like, shit, here it is okay, So let me
- 2:00:00Speaker 3: share my screen so everybody can see. I don't have
- 2:00:10Speaker 3: a screen share tab a new layer screen share where
- 2:00:20Speaker 3: did triple b?
- 2:00:22Speaker 4: Okay?
- 2:00:24Speaker 3: There I is, but let me share my screen is okay?
- 2:00:34Speaker 3: All right? Let me blow this ship up, and let
- 2:00:40Speaker 3: me blow this ship up over here? Oh ship, what
- 2:00:44Speaker 3: are we doing here? Here we go? We blow this
- 2:00:48Speaker 3: up a little bit so everybody can see it. Okay,
- 2:00:53Speaker 3: mm hmm okay. So these are the members of the

- 2:03:43Speaker 3: Rourke claimed he and three others dropped bombs on a
- 2:03:46Speaker 3: refinery in Cuba on April twenty fifth. YadA, YadA, YadA.
- 2:03:53Speaker 3: And these are all, like I say from the files
- 2:03:55Speaker 3: concerning UH Sergio are cautious. Sim wow. And there's a
- 2:04:02Speaker 3: ship pile of them and they even you have look here, Joe,
- 2:04:08Speaker 3: this is a Dallas Police Department March seventh, sixty seven,
- 2:04:14Speaker 3: Criminal Intelligence Sergio or Kasha keepan refugee. And this is
- 2:04:19Speaker 3: when I guess when Garrison was digging in on Yeah,
- 2:04:25Speaker 3: and they asked for a name check of Sergio or
- 2:04:29Speaker 3: Kashia Smith, David Willien Ferry, Emilio Santana and that was
- 2:04:37Speaker 3: just a report. And oh, by the way, Hugh Ainsworth
- 2:04:46Speaker 3: was the one that tipped off Sergio Orkassha Smith and
- 2:04:49Speaker 3: told him that Garrison was full of shit. Don't go
- 2:04:51Speaker 3: to New Orleans, stay away from him. You're only gonna
- 2:04:56Speaker 3: get you know, bad bad vibes, bad bad things will
- 2:05:00Speaker 3: happen to you if you mess with Garrison. So Hugh
- 2:05:03Speaker 3: Ainsworth was in it was in Sergio's ear about Garrison
- 2:05:07Speaker 3: telling him to stay away. Wow, because they had I
- 2:05:13Speaker 3: guess tapped Smith's phone at some point, and uh, yeah,
- 2:05:23Speaker 3: Hugh Ainsworth was in his ear.
- 2:05:26Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:05:27Speaker 3: And then they're talking about how how all these things
- 2:05:30Speaker 3: were you know, with the CIA that guy Banister had
- 2:05:34Speaker 3: moved into the new Newman building from the Balter Building,
- 2:05:38Speaker 3: and so did Sergio and David Ferry with their anti
- 2:05:40Speaker 3: Castor organization, the Friends of Democratic Cuba, which bought trucks
- 2:05:44Speaker 3: for the no the name of Lee Oswald while he's
- 2:05:46Speaker 3: still in Russia. Right, So yeah, I mean, and then
- 2:05:51Speaker 3: you start getting into the Lazel Beckham Thorn Lean, Jack Martin,
- 2:05:58Speaker 3: he's the club our I mention the Bill Dalzel. Dalzel
- 2:06:02Speaker 3: was CIA through and through. You can see the notation
- 2:06:05Speaker 3: right here. But I mean, you know, you don't graduate
- 2:06:07Speaker 3: from Georgetown University, know in seven languages, and you know
- 2:06:11Speaker 3: use some bumpfuck dipshit not be recruited right right. You know,
- 2:06:16Speaker 3: the guy was in in Africa, he was in the
- 2:06:19Speaker 3: Middle East, he was in South America, Bill Dalzel. And
- 2:06:23Speaker 3: you see they have Arkasha bracketed and they have him
- 2:06:26Speaker 3: listed as CIA as well. So all kinds of crazy stuff.
- 2:06:32Speaker 4: Man, it is. And you know when we talk about suspects,
- 2:06:40Speaker 4: we talk about people that have the I guess the
- 2:06:45Speaker 4: term is will and like the Kahones to use a
- 2:06:51Speaker 4: Spanish term to be part of an operation like this,
- 2:06:56Speaker 4: and a lot of the people we just talked about
- 2:06:59Speaker 4: click the boxes. And to answer my own question and
- 2:07:03Speaker 4: kind of weave back, I believe Emilio Santana going back
- 2:07:07Speaker 4: and forth into Cuba under Castro's Cuba, you know, extracting people,
- 2:07:12Speaker 4: extracting his family and who knows what else. I would
- 2:07:20Speaker 4: rank him my number one for sure. If I had
- 2:07:26Speaker 4: to rank them in order. Of the three people we
- 2:07:28Speaker 4: talked about tonight, I would say probably Caine too, just
- 2:07:33Speaker 4: because he was nuts crazy based.
- 2:07:35Speaker 3: On your Yeah, I don't know Kine so much as
- 2:07:38Speaker 3: being an assassin of the president, but he was definitely
- 2:07:41Speaker 3: in some shit involved in He could have been, you know,
- 2:07:47Speaker 3: a key part of things. But certainly no slouts, and
- 2:07:53Speaker 3: certainly I could see somebody who would do something like
- 2:07:57Speaker 3: that for sure, if he got bald enough to walk
- 2:07:59Speaker 3: up to the CIA station in Mexico City and knock
- 2:08:03Speaker 3: on the door and be like, Hey, I'm doing this.
- 2:08:06Speaker 3: This isn't that you need to you know, hire me
- 2:08:08Speaker 3: type of thing, you know, and plus all the other
- 2:08:12Speaker 3: things that the CIA. I mean, he went into the
- 2:08:14Speaker 3: Chicago office of the CIA, I don't know how many times,
- 2:08:18Speaker 3: right between sixty two and sixty three or nineteen sixty
- 2:08:22Speaker 3: and sixty three, probably at least four or five times,
- 2:08:26Speaker 3: offering to do work for him, and who knows how
- 2:08:28Speaker 3: much they actually gave him to do. I mean, the
- 2:08:30Speaker 3: guy was a hell of a wire tapper, private investigator
- 2:08:34Speaker 3: on the side before he got in with the mob
- 2:08:38Speaker 3: and got corrupted in all of that. But yeah, it's
- 2:08:44Speaker 3: who knows, man. I mean, there's a guy matching his
- 2:08:46Speaker 3: description that was seen, you know, running out the back
- 2:08:50Speaker 3: door of the depository. So I'm just saying.
- 2:08:59Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would definitely put Nicoletti as complete bullshit
- 2:09:05Speaker 4: coming out thirty years later pretty much. Although definitely involved
- 2:09:11Speaker 4: with the Mafia right and the Chicago outfit doesn't necessarily
- 2:09:16Speaker 4: mean you're involved in the JFK assassination, although it makes
- 2:09:20Speaker 4: for a good conspiracy lore conversation.
- 2:09:22Speaker 3: But absolutely all right, folks, that's a pod is back
- 2:09:32Speaker 3: in banger as ever. Triple B, Joe B, we thank
- 2:09:37Speaker 3: you for hanging out with us this evening. I'm glad
