Angel of Death Gives Deposition to Justice
Department in Inslaw Case
by J. Orlin Grabbe
On April 2, 1996, Charles S. Hayes--retired CIA
operative, Air Force Colonel, and Kentucky salvage
dealer--was deposed by the U.S. Department of Justice
with respect to the Inslaw case [1]. The attorney for the
Department of Justice, Beth Cook, seemed ill-prepared for
what turned out to be a brutal assault on the integrity of the
Justice Department itself, which Hayes accused of lying,
cheating, and stealing.
Hayes has recently acquired the Internet label of
AOD ("Angel of Death" or "Angel of Doom") due to his
efforts in encouraging the early retirement of corrupt
politicians. "Do you know the Angel of Death?" Cook
asked at one point. "I know him well," Hayes replied.
Hayes has previously testified with respect to the
Inslaw case, most notably before a Chicago grand jury in
August 1992. Hayes' extensive testimony in that case was
redacted under the National Security Act. The reasons for
the redaction are not known, but apparently the grand
jury's questions lead far afield from the principal topic of
the Justice Department's apparently illegal sales of Inslaw's
PROMIS software, and got into topics related to a tangled
web of freelance arms dealers, drug runners, assassins,
and government miscreants--whose murky and disparate
interrelationships Hayes dubbed "the Octopus"--a term
adopted and popularized by freelance journalist Danny
Casolaro [2], who used Hayes as a frequent source of
information. Hayes is said to have testified to detailed
criminal violations of U.S. law by employees of the
Department of Justice and other government agencies.
Although Hayes will not discuss his grand jury
testimony, other sources say that with respect to the Inslaw
case, he testified to a meeting at which he was present in
Brazil in the course of which Earl Brian called Attorney
General Ed Meese (then in the United States) to get
approval for the sale of PROMIS to the Brazilian
government. Hayes is said to have backed up this
assertion with an affidavit of Brazilian President Joao
Figueiredo.
Earl Brian, who is said to have marketed the
PROMIS software to intelligence agencies around the
world, is currently under indictment in California. The
indictment concerns ten of millions of dollars of fraudulent
lease transactions made while Earl Brian was Chairman of
the Board and Chief Executive Officer of three separate
companies: Infotechology, Financial News Network
(FNN), and United Press International (UPI).
Early in the April 2, 1996, deposition, Justice
Dept. attorney Beth Cook enjoined Hayes not to discuss
his grand jury testimony. Subsequently, however, she
began to question him about it. "Are you trying to entrap
me?" Hayes asked.
In the five-hour deposition, Hayes declared he was
not present to help Inslaw, nor to help any government
agency which was pirating software. "I'm here to help the
people of the United States, whom I hold in esteem second
only to my God" he said, and admonished Cook for what
he called her lack of preparation, laziness, and wasting of
taxpayers' money. He asked her if there was "some
medical reason related to the time of month" for her
"arrogance" and "obstinance".
Hayes asked to be reimbursed for expenses related
to the Justice Department subpoena. "We don't pay for
subpoenas," Cook said, although in fact Federal law
requires that expenses incurred in response to Federal
subpoenas be reimbursed.
Hayes pointed out that U.S. attorney Allen Lear
had threatened to bring the FBI down on him on January
18, 1996. "I don't think that's legal," Hayes said. Anyway,
"the FBI is not a chartered organization."
(A check with the Library of Congress shows that,
in fact, the FBI is not chartered. As such, laws related to,
and convictions based on, "lying to the FBI" are apparently
not valid, for no such chartered organization exists. The
correctness of this argument, based on lack of charter, has
been upheld in court cases involving the FBI in
Massachusetts and Vermont. In addition, since the FBI, as
a subdivision of the Department of Justice, is larger than
the DoJ itself, Federal law bars FBI employees from
receiving benefits. FBI agents who currently receive
benefits are thus apparently in violation of Federal law,
and could properly be required to return the money.)
Hayes accused the DoJ of theft, saying they owed
him money stemming from the largest gem seizure in U.S.
history. (This appeared to be in reference to Indictment
No. 86-44, U.S. vs. Antonio Carlos A Calvares, Mauricio
Alcides Kruger, Mark Edward Lewis, Empresa Brasileira
de Mineracao Imp e Exp. Ltda., filed Dec. 3, 1986, in the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky.
Charles Hayes personally delivered gems with an
appraised value of $1.3 million. Customs Form 4655,
Receipt for Seized Goods, dated July 25, 1985, for goods
delivered by Charles Hayes is signed by Paul E.
Carpenter. A similar receipt on July 28 is signed by
George F. Fritz, Special Agent, witnessed by John D.
Morton, RAC. The total seizure in the case involved more
than $10 million in property. Under 18 USC 371, 542,
545, Hayes says, he is entitled to *mordi*--this being
typically 25 percent of the total seizure, but a minimum of
10 percent.)
More relevant to the Inslaw case, is the fact that in
August 1990, Charles Hayes purchased used Justice
Department computers and peripheral equipment (Lot 097
from the U.S. attorney's office in Lexington, Kentucky) for
salvage for $45, and found on them copies of the pirated
PROMIS software, as well as sealed grand jury
indictments, and the names of Justice Dept. informants.
The General Accounting Office found the Justice
Department's sale of computers from which it had not
erased sensitive information alarming, noting, "The error
may have put some informants, witness and undercover
agents in a 'life-and-death' situation."
The Justice Department, having sold Hayes the
equipment, subsequently seized it under warrant--
apparently to prevent its being used as evidence in the
Inslaw case. But Hayes subsequently sued and got the
equipment back, plus a undetermined settlement amount.
(This case is discussed, albeit somewhat incompletely and
inaccurately, in David Burnham, Above the Law: Secret
Deals, Political Fixes, and Other Misadventures of the
U.S. Department of Justice, Scribner, New York, 1996).
In the April 2, 1996, deposition, Justice attorney
Beth Cook seemed unaware that the Justice Department
was under Congressional order from the Brookes
Committee on the Judiciary (see [1]) to cease the sale of
pirated software, not to mention hard drives containing
confidential information. Similar restrictions have been
placed on the IRS which, from its Martinsburg, West
Virginia, central record depository, sold some 40,000
pounds of used computer disks containing the tax records
of thousands of U.S. citizens--records of considerable
interest to credit bureaus, organized crime, and foreign
intelligence organizations.
When asked how he felt just prior to the
deposition, Hayes said, "Great, Kentucky's No. 1,"
referring to the previous night's championship win over
Syracuse by the University of Kentucky basketball team.
About the only thing that Hayes didn't accuse the
DoJ of in his April 2 deposition was murder. Others are
not so kind. In its Addendum to INSLAW's ANALYSIS and
REBUTTAL of the BUA REPORT, dated February 14,
1994, Inslaw notes with respect to the Justice Department's
Office of Special Investigations (OSI): "OSI's publicly-
declared mission is to locate and deport Nazi war
criminals. The Nazi war criminal program is, however, a
front for the Justice Department's own covert intelligence
service, according to disclosures recently made to
INSLAW by several senior Justice Department career
officials . . . According to written statements of which
INSLAW has obtained copies, another undeclared mission
of the Justice Department's covert agents was to insure that
investigative journalist Danny Casolaro remained silent
about the role of the Justice Department in the INSLAW
scandal by murdering him in West Virginia in August
1991."
Is the U.S. Department of Justice just another
tenacle of the Octopus? If so, then what is the meaning of
the phrase "with liberty and justice for all"?

Who is Hayes?
He is supposedly either one of, or a contact person for, "The Fifth
Column", a group of ex-CIA computer hackers who have become so torqued
off about corruption in the government that they have started their
own crusade against it. Supposedly they were able to acquire their own
Cray Supercomputer (rumored to be the one that had been in Clark Air
Force Base, it was air cooled) which they keep in a semi-tractor
trailer and move around at random intervals. They have been getting
the goods on corrupt politicians, and sending them envelopes
containing all the information on their favorite Swiss bank accounts
with transactions to and from. Included in the envelope is a little
letter which requests that they resign or the information will be made
public. Allegedly this is the reason there have been so many
resignations from Congress lately.
Now, the only part of this that I *can* verify is that there have
been a
lot of people resigning from Congress lately. I have seen Hayes get
articles in some of the alternative media publications (I think Media
Bypass may have done a story on him). If even part of all that is
true, then there would be a lot of people who would have a lot of
reasons to make sure that Mr. Hayes ceased his activities.

Saint Colby and the Fifth
Column
by J. Orlin Grabbe
When I first heard of William Colby's capsized
canoe and disappearance near his place on the Wicomico
River, I thought, "Well, maybe he won't be ragging on Jim
Norman and me anymore." It was of course absurd that
Norman and I had ever registered on Colby's radar screen
in the first place. We were small fry: Norman was an
unemployed journalist recently fired from Forbes
Magazine, while I was rumored to be an ex-academic
suffering a bad case of sunstroke.
Norman and I had met through the dead mediation
of Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster. In my
peregrinations as a banking consultant, I had come across
the fact of the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA)
spying on domestic banking transactions, had thought this
a bit too Big Brotherly for my tastes, and had written an
essay entitled The End of Ordinary Money about the uses
of the monetary system for surveillance. Jim Norman, a
Senior editor at Forbes, had written about the same NSA
covert project, pointing out that Vince Foster was one of
its overseers on behalf of a Little Rock software firm.
Norman's research pointed to another explosive issue,
namely that at the time of Foster's death both Foster and
Hillary Clinton were under counterintelligence
investigation for selling U.S. secrets to the Israelis.
When Norman and I met in Reno, Nevada, I
learned about one of his sources--the point man of a group
called the Fifth Column. This person, Chuck Hayes, had a
nice computer and could do some neat tricks with it--
things in some specific areas in which I was looking to
educate myself. Hayes, meanwhile, had heard about my
essay The End of Ordinary Money, which I had published
on the Internet. Hayes, ex-CIA, got a copy from the CIA
library, and liked it. Hayes and I hit it off right away,
discovering an overlap of mutual interests.
For several years the Fifth Column had searched
computer data bases, including foreign bank accounts,
looking for evidence of political bribery, kickbacks, and
related subversion of the U.S. Constitution and political
process. They had uncovered the financial information
concerning the Foster/Clinton espionage. They had also
transferred millions of dollars from politically-related
illegal accounts at off-shore banks in the Cayman Islands,
Switzerland, and elsewhere to a holding account at the
U.S. Federal Reserve.
Jim Norman wrote an article Fostergate for Forbes
magazine about all this, an article which was cleared by
the magazine's fact-checkers and lawyers, but at the last
minute killed by Steve Forbes, through the urging of
Caspar Weinberger, former Defense Secretary and
Chairman of the Board of Forbes, Inc. I promised Norman
that I would publicize his article through the Internet, and
began a series on Vince Foster. The series also allowed
me to raise the issues I had discussed in The End of
Ordinary Money in a different way. The series generated
a large Internet audience, including not only sympathizers
to the cause of uncovering the cover-up, but also small
coteries of others with counteragendas--including White
House disinformation specialists, NSA email and usegroup
monitors, and a myriad of others bent on establishing
territorial rights to pieces of the story.
One example of the latter was Daniel Brandt, a
researcher who made his living off the CIA by selling a
database of undigested articles mostly critical of it. Brandt
had identified "information warfare" as a new ploy to
justify old intelligence budgets, and hence reports of the
Fifth Column by Norman and me had to be part of this
campaign. After all, Norman referred to Fifth Column
members as "CIA hackers", and they were reported to be
up to something good, so the story must be propaganda
since everyone knew that organization never did anything
worthwhile. Brandt then identified the ultimate source of
all this "Fifth Column" disinformation as probably the
"well-connected" Jack Wheeler, "a right-wing adventurer"
and contributor to Strategic Investment (SI), whom I
apparently gullibly believed. Neither my friend Wheeler
nor I could think of any good reason why I would be
getting information about computers or banking from
Wheeler, but this theory apparently made sense to Brandt.
(For the record, Wheeler is not "right-wing", whatever that
is supposed to mean. He is philosophically a libertarian,
although he was once head of Youth for Reagan, a
conservative organization. Wheeler had come to admire
Reagan when he heard a speech in which Reagan said,
"There is no Left or Right. There is only Up or Down: Up
toward liberty or Down toward tyranny." As far as
connections, I assume Wheeler has a few, stemming from
the time his grandfather was chief bodyguard to four
successive U.S. Presidents--from Teddy Roosevelt to
Warren Harding.)
But over at SI, Brandt's view was supported by
William Colby, among others. I don't profess to know how
much Colby was actually consulted with respect to SI
editorial policy, but Colby was known to support the view
that "Foster was killed but he wasn't a spy." (In Colby's
own case, this view would be simply inverted: "Colby
was a spy, but he wasn't killed.") Moreover, there was no
Fifth Column and no high-level source would admit to
having ever heard of this Chuck Hayes--hence Hayes was
just another liar and huckster with a hidden agenda of his
own. Colby, of course, knew very well who Hayes was,
but had reasons to pretend otherwise. The most obvious
one may relate to the circumstances by which Colby was
removed as CIA director in 1977, an action in which
Hayes was involved. But the more probable reason had to
do with political turf, for it would become abundantly
clear Colby was not in sympathy with the activities of the
Fifth Column, as Colby himself had a little piece of the U.
S. political process for sale.
SI relentless pursued the notion that the death of
Vince Foster was not a suicide. It specialized in
highlighting the ease by which the gaping holes in the
official story could be exposed. But ultimately it could
provide its readers no explanation for the continuance of
the cover-up, because it initially rejected the true
explanation: namely that at the time of his death Vince
Foster was under counterintelligence investigation for
selling U.S. secrets to Israel. Thus SI was not in a position
to explain to its readers why the Whitewater Committee
under Alfonse D'Amato would supposedly accept the
Foster suicide verdict at face value. The simple
explanation was that doing so allowed D'Amato to take on
Bill Clinton through the Whitewater investigation without
at the same time having to antagonize his constituents by
pursuing a line of inquiry destined to expose a can of
worms relating to Israel.
Yes, the Foster murder cover-up was an easy sham
to see through. But no one wanted to bear the burden of
doing so officially.
There were other people, naturally, who had
different reasons for going along with this scenario of
events, unrelated to issues of national security. British
journalist Ambrose Evans-Pritchard would dump on the
story by ludicrously claiming that a Swiss account number
found on a paper from the trunk of Barry Seal's car (an
account that turned out to have Caspar Weinberger's name
attached to it) was really an aircraft number--thus
providing one more reason not to believe those Jim
Norman articles about plundered Swiss accounts. But then
Evans-Pritchard had carried the information around for
some time, in blissful ignorance of what he had. After all,
the record from Seal was a series of letters--so how it
could be a Swiss "numbered" account?
Meanwhile, William Colby told Washington
journalist Sarah McClendon and others that Colin Powell
would be the Republican nominee for President. But
Colby wasn't able to subsequently explain Powell's failure
to stand for office. After all, since the Fifth Column was a
mythical entity, and the tales of political retirements
inspired by financial disclosure was disinformation, then
naturally the packets of financial information that were in
fact delivered to Powell could have no bearing on Powell's
political decisions. (The packets were said to have
detailed millions of dollars of undeclared jewelry received
from Kuwait, a stash of gold bars representing payoffs
from military deals, and involvement in an arms network
that does not hesitate to deal in proscribed products such
as plutonium or to plunder U.S. military bases for goods in
hot demand on the world market.)
But after Colby's death, how quickly he became
Saint Colby. Rumors ran amuck. Since his death followed
shortly on the heels of Commerce Secretary Ron Brown's,
surely a common hand was involved in both. Since Colby
was the man who had revealed the CIA's family jewels in
the 1977 congressional probe into intelligence activities,
surely he was now dead for whistle-blowing of the same
noble sort. Since Colby was an SI editor, and SI was a
publication that relentlessly investigated the Vince Foster
murder, surely Colby was a martyr to the cause of truth.
Publications that had not heretofore acknowledged the
existence of the Fifth Column now breathlessly reported
that it "cannot be ruled out" that Colby was the head of it.
The rush to deification was all quite nauseating.
Yes, there was definitely a Ron Brown connection,
for at the time of Brown's death Colby was working with
Brown in representing the interests of Vietnam to the U.S.
This hardly shores up the argument for sainthood. Even
those convinced a change in U.S. policy toward Vietnam is
mandatory might wonder about the propriety of an ex-head
of U.S. intelligence representing the interests of a foreign
power. This is reinforced by the Brown association, since
Brown himself reportedly asked Vietnam to deposit
$700,000 in a bank account for his personal use as the
quid pro quo for considering their requests for
reconciliation.
Colby had made his reputation as head of the
Vietnam-War era Phoenix project which had used
computer data bases to track political "enemies" in
Vietnam, many of whom were then targeted for
assassination. The ruthlessness he showed there was not
all that different from the ruthlessness he later showed
toward ex-colleagues when it came time to cover his ass
before congressional investigators. Colby's whistle-
blowing was dictated by necessity, not choice.
Colby may have simply fallen out of his canoe and
drowned. But if he was given a little nudge, one suspects
he was out of line with respect to his foreign
entanglements. And one seriously doubts the hands
involved were the same as those involved in the death of
Ron Brown. Ron Brown was after all (as I reported in
"Ron Brown's Loose Lips Seal His Fate") a threat to his
business colleagues, and he met his fate as a result of a
bomb triggered by a descending detonator aboard his
plane. Information about the bomb on Brown's plane has
already been released to British papers by MI6.
Meanwhile, the damage control minions in the U.S. are
desperately trying to see that the true story doesn't bleed
back here overseas. Fat chance.
Unlike the Fifth Column, which has used
information to expose political corruption, Colby was
seemingly indifferent to the corrupt uses of information
itself. In any event he wasn't around when the Fifth
Column delivered a packet of information to Senator Bob
Dole on Monday, May 13. On Wednesday, Dole then
dramatically announced his resignation from the Senate to
run full-time for President on a non-existent campaign
budget, in the apparent presumption of a receiving a
Republican nomination that will not come his way.
But don't be surprised if equally dramatic and
convoluted decisions are announced by the Clintons in the
near future.

I have seen a couple of posts concerning the "angel of death" on this
list, so I am providing the following update. The following message is
from Jim Norman (Tenega) and is directed to Sussman, owner of the cs
list. Jim Norman originally published the story about the angel of
death/fifth column in a publication of very limited circulation called
"Media Bypass", as I recall. Norman orginally wrote the article when
he was working for "Forbes" magazine, a year or two ago. Forbes
initially planned to publish the article, but it was cancelled on
orders from top management. Norman continued to research the story and
eventually lost his job at "Forbes". Hayes and associates are the
"angels of death" or "5th column", and they are supposedly current or
former members of the intelligence commumity who have tracked illegal
payments (bribes) to politicians and are forcing them to resign in
order to avoid public disclosure of their crimes.

Subject: Re: What about Boorda?
One of Hayes' guys delivered Dole an evelope on Monday, upon which
Dole, on the spot, agreed to resign from office. Don't know waht was
in the envelope. But apparently is was material OTHER THAN Swiss
bank account data. The stuff about Elixabeth Dole's Swiss account is
another shoe still to drop. Impliation is taht if Dole ever gets very
high in the polls, it will be delivered before the election.
I'm waiting to get a copy of Hayes' ticket stub from the ValuJet
flight. He and a companion, (another intelligence community veteran
and explosives expert), had flown to Miami to sell an airplane and had
planned to come back to Ky via Atlanta on ValuJet. Their tickets
would have allowed them to travel on any flight that day, I think.
But they had planned to take the ill-fated flight. They were delayed,
decided to have lunch and take a later flight. While at the
restaurant, they apparently saw a TV report of the crash.
Hayes tends to discount the idea that the disaster had anything to do
with his possible travel on theat flight. Yes, he says, his name wuld
have shown up on a preliminary passenger list. But would not appear
on the actual manifest, since he didn't make the flight.
As to Boorda: Hayes says that was just a matter of personal tragedy.
Boorda was about to be relieved of his command over the series of
fu**-ups by the Navy in recent months, from Tailhook to plane crashes
to prostitution and car theft rings being run out of the Naval
Academy. No Fifth Col. factor, however.

Organization:
As a note of interest, Forbes cancelled the story on the fifth column
because their publisher emeritus was Casper Weinberger (I'm pretty sure it
was him)-- one of those that had his Swiss account hacked. Jim Norman was
given a blind Swiss bank account number by Hayes to check their story out.
Norman was able to determine that, in fact, that account had been hacked
and several million dollars returned to the US treasurey. Hayes claimed it
was done because the person in question had sold information to the
Israelis. Without finding out who the account belonged to, Norman sent the
story upstairs. The story came back dead and Norman was offered a good
severance package, or leave without pay. He chose to go (of course). I'm
dieing to read the book. Does anyone know if its out yet and what it is
called?
By the way, the CIA backs Clinton (he has worked for them since college in
England) and I suspect the fifth column wouldn't hit Dole to support the
Company like that. The CIA has done everything it could to hurt Dole,
including making sure Gringrich couldn't campaign for him in the primaries
and has to take a very limited role now -- but that's another story.

Jim & Orlin--
Who is the "Angel of Death"?
Is this the same guy who found a bunch of secret files concerning
Confidential Informants on some used computer junk a couple years ago?
At the time it was merely amusing, and I did not keep a note of it. I
did not even write down the name. I do remember that he was keeping the
junk in the old Nancy, Kentucky, schoolhouse. But there is no "Charles
Hayes" at Nancy in the phone book.
Nancy is just across the lake from me. OK, it is a big lake, but it is
still only an hour's drive.
One of my research projects is the involvement of police, lawyers,
judges, politicians, bankers, prison guards, spooks, and other social
predators in the enormously profitable illegal drug business.
Is this fellow worth talking to? The CIA seems to be a major player in
the drug corruption. Is Chuck Hayes protecting or exposing this??

U.S. SELLS SECRET DATA TO CHARLES HAYES
=======================================
*New York Times*, NATIONAL, Sunday, Sept. 2, 1990 (p. 25)
"U.S. Mistakenly Sold a Prosecutor's Secret Data"
Pikeville, Ky., Sept. 1 (AP) -- A United States Attorney's
secret computer files, including electronic copies of sealed
indictments and information about pending F.B.I. inquiries, were
mistakenly sold by the Government a month ago to a businessman
who paid $45 for what he thought was only broken computer
equipment.
The Justice Department now says the sale could compromise any
number of criminal cases, and it has sued the businessman to get
the data back.
The businessman, Charles Hayes, who resells Government surplus
items, says that he would like to cooperate but that the
equipment he bought, and various parts from it, have now been
mixed with his previous inventory and so he is no longer sure
which is which. He says he is trying to determine which of his
customers may have bought some of the equipment, but he is
resisting the Government's demand that he identify those
customers, terming it an unwarranted intrusion into his business.
-+- A Search of His Business -+-
The Government finds Mr. Hayes's attitude insufficiently
forthcoming. In addition to the lawsuit, which was filed
Thursday, Federal marshals armed with a search warrant arrived
Friday night at his establishment in Pulaski County, about 125
miles west of here. By the time they had left nine hours later,
they had seized what Mr. Hayes described today as nine computer
terminals, a computer memory device and assorted other equipment.
According to the Government's lawsuit, the case stems from a
mistake made last January when a technician for the Harris-Lanier
Corporation, the manufacturer of the system that Mr. Hayes would
later buy, arrived at the office of the United States Attorney in
Lexington, Louis DeFalaise. The system, in disrepair, was to be
sold at auction, and the technician was supposed to erase the
computer's memory.
In July, at an auction of the General Services Administration,
Mr. Hayes made a successful bid of $45 for the system: 13
computer terminals, two central memory units, two cartridge
module drives and nine printers. After Mr. Hayes picked up the
equipment on Aug. 3, the Harris-Lanier technician told the
Government that he had not erased the memory after all; A
magnetic probe used to scramble the data had been too weak, and,
because the equipment was broken, technicians had been unable to
purge the memory through normal computer commands.
The Government's lawsuit says that the computer's memory and
backup storage tapes almost certainly still contain sensitive
details about informers who work for the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, about sealed indictments, about federally
protected witnesses and about employees in Mr. DeFalaise's
office.
-+- "Irreparable Injury" -+-
"The U.S. Attorney's office," the lawsuit says, "used some or all
of the computer equipment to prepare and store virtually every
document and record generated by both the civil and criminal
divisions of the office from 1983 to 1989."
If made public, the suit goes on, the files could ruin criminal
investigations and cause "great harm and irreparable injury" to
the work of Federal prosecutors. "The seriousness of the injury
to the United States of America cannot be understated," it says.
Within hours of the lawsuits filing, a Federal district judge,
Eugene Siler Jr., ordered Mr. Hayes to return the computer system
to the Government and not examine, copy or distribute the data.
A hearing has been set for Tuesday.
Mr. Hayes said he had been told before he bought the equipment
that the computer memory had been wiped out. He called the sale
"the worst case of bureaucracy I have ever seen," and added, "If
it is this loose, I wonder what else is missing up there" in the
Office of the United States Attorney.
"What it amounts to," he said, "is I am being punished for the
inefficiency" in the prosecutor's office.

SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE NON-NEWS

Some Observations on the Non-News
by J. Orlin Grabbe
The most notable feature of the current state of
journalism in the U.S. is the total dereliction of duty on
the part of national political reporters. More than fifty
congresscritters, senators, and state governors have
announced their retirements in the past year, after they
received packets from a group of hackers called the Fifth
Column detailing illegal and unreported income from
bribes, kickbacks, payoffs, and whatnot. This story of the
wholesale sell-out of the U.S. political process should rank
as one of the top stories of the decade. But the national
media blandly reports the contrived explanations ("I just
want to spend more time with my heretofore neglected
family") and speculates on the sad loss of Washington
country-club camaraderie that used to keep such fine
people in public office forever.
This lack of discernment reflects a level of
stupidity that should make unsurprising the general media
dismissal of the importance of Whitewater (prior to the
recent convictions obtained by Kenneth Starr), the head-
in-the-sand stance on the murder of Vince Foster (even
though virtually all official Washington knows Foster was
murdered), the gullible acceptance of the official story on
the downing of Ron Brown's plane (destroyed by a bomb),
the lackadaisical acceptance of Bob Dole's claimed reasons
for resigning from the Senate (he got a Fifth Column
packet two days before the announcement), the air-head
discussions of the coming "Clinton-Dole" election battle
(as though there is going to be any such thing), and the
"smell of roses" interpretation of the putrefying stench
arising from almost everything the Clinton administration
touches.
To be sure, some journalists have picked up part of
the story. But often they have pursued the partial picture
with a monomania that has turned their entire effort into a
circus sideshow. One example is that of Ambrose Evans-
Pritchard and Chis Ruddy who, while still trying to
convince who-knows-whom that the death of Vince Foster
was not a suicide, managed to acquire a Pet Witness to the
disposal of Foster's body at Ft. Marcy Park--a witness
whom they paraded forth with fanfare, accompanied by
tales of swarthy Middle-Eastern lurkers who scowled
fiercely in broad daylight (a staged event effective in
impressing naive journalists). When the Special
Prosecutor, Kenneth Starr, failed to drop everything he
was doing and devote himself to enhancing these
journalist's own sense of self-importance, he became,
naturally, part of the cover-up. But Starr wisely continued
to follow his mandate to untangle Whitewater-related
malfeasance on the part of the Clintons, and left the
sideshow antics to these misguided journalists who hadn't
a clue as to what was going on. Starr, after all, knew what
he was doing. (Although, to be sure, it took Starr a while
to realize that the FBI was out and about intimidating his
own witnesses, a fact Ruddy was to point out.)
The goal of the FBI in all this has been to keep
reporters in a state of somnambulism. But last week Louis
Freeh suddenly discovered his bread wasn't buttered on the
side of Bill Clinton, announcing that the White House
request for FBI files on prominent Republicans and others
outside the Clinton administration had been totally
inappropriate. The White House made a statement that the
whole thing was really just the fault of some Clinton
underling operating out-of-control as usual. Freeh's
statement meanwhile leaves unexplained why the FBI
turned over the 400-plus files to the White House in the
first place. Freeh's stated 400-plus number of files upped
the ante from the White House's admitted 300-plus
number. It also illustrates that the FBI can't count, or can't
tell the whole truth, since the actual number is 900-plus, as
has been verified by anyone who has bothered to download
the same set of files from the FBI computer, such as that
other government agency that is looking into the matter.
Maybe Bernie Nussbaum took the rest of the files home,
just to make sure the wrong people didn't read them.
Freeh of course is coming off the PR high of
having ended the Freemen siege without bloodshed. But
his problems in Montana aren't over. There is the little
matter of Montana FBI agents involved in drug dealing.
The Canadian-Montana border is now the principal
point of entry of illegal drugs coming into the U.S.
Montana is awash in them. A series of clandestine
airfields stretches across the state. Naturally the journalists
covering the Freemen picked up none of this bigger story
right under their noses. Big names are involved in the drug
operation, including the soon-to-be-indicted Governor of
Montana. Another name that surfaces in the Montana
operation is that of ex-President George Bush.
Bush's indiscretions are beginning to catch up with
him. This past week he took a trip to Bern, Switzerland,
together with Colin Powell, who is not running for
President. It seems that an arms deal between the two of
them went sour when a relevant account at the local bank
turned up missing $75 million dollars. In panic mode they
flew over to try to patch things up. Hope you two boys
remembered to smile a lot: You were on candid camera.
Maybe you should try something legal for a change?
Others are more overt in their criminality. Jackson
Stephens, Don Tyson, and Richard Mellon Scaife recently
pooled their pocket change and put out a $100,000
contract on the Angel of Death. They farmed it out to the
New Orleans Syndicate. The breakdown is reportedly
$50,000 by Stephens, and $25,000 each by Tyson and
Scaife. This makes the second time the lying Jackson
Stephens has hired an assassin this year ("I've learned my
lesson," he said, after the first one, Pablo, was put on a
plane back home). But I hear the CIA, which has never
really had anything against the corrupt politicians targeted
by the Angel of Death--after all they're much easier to
manipulate than the honest kind--has finally decided to get
on the right side of things. Say, Jack, what about that dead
body found lying in your backyard last week? You don't
suppose it was the chickenshit coming home to roost, do
you? As they say, payback is hell.
As if it weren't enough dealing with the criminals,
there are also the forces of law 'n order (if you want to call
them that) to worry about. Janet Reno sends word that the
Justice Dept. will leave the Angel of Death alone if he will
leave the Justice Dept. alone. It's an interesting
proposition: sort of like that of a pugilist who walks down
the street and punches a random passerby in the face, then
immediately announces, "Let's call a truce."
Ms. Reno, as one Harvard graduate to another I
take your word Justice didn't have anything to do with
destroying my private email and Usenet postings of
Hackers versus Politicians, Part II. You blamed the X2
division of NSA. Well, what about the actions of X2?
This is apparently the new Standard of Excellence at
Justice: As long as we don't commit any crimes ourselves,
we're doing okay.
One consolation is that X2 found those little
TCP/IP packets formed from Hackers versus Politicians
extremely toxic. Secret contents created a cancer in the
NSA computers that devoured them. Some NSA
computers were fried from mysterious voltage surges.
Others caught fire in thermite-like reactions. NSA
attributed these problems to an Act of God. This in itself
shows where NSA stands in the Divine Hierarchy.
One cannot say X2's instincts were wrong. The
Fifth Column has been supplying information to the
Special Prosecutor from the beginning. But after Hackers
versus Politicians appeared, hundreds of surprisingly
professional hackers began pouring relevant information
into the hands of Kenneth Starr and others. Their efforts
have greatly supplemented the work of the Fifth Column.
And all along Kenneth Starr has been quietly
building his cases brick by brick, preparing indictments
and sitting on them until the proper time, mapping out
court trials, sifting through evidence, not plea bargaining
when it is not necessary. In short, doing his job in a
masterful manner. But you will find few journalists on the
left or the right who will admit this, admit they were
wrong, even after the total success of the first Whitewater
trial. One assumes they will hold firm, even after Bill
Clinton resigns. Being a journalist, after all, means never
having to say you are sorry.

Angel of Death Arrested
by J. Orlin Grabbe
The Justice Department doesn't like it when you mess
with their stolen software, in particular the PROMIS system
appropriated from Inslaw, Inc. Chuck Hayes should know.
He is currently being held without bond in the London,
Kentucky jail. All based on the tale of an unidentified,
undercover FBI agent. FBI agents, of course, always tell the
truth.
Hayes had his first run-in with the Justice Department
in August 1990 when he purchased lot 097 of used computer
equipment from the office of the U.S. attorney in Lexington,
Kentucky. He discovered copies of the PROMIS software
and all sorts of official records, such as the identity of people
who had been placed in the federal witness protection
program. When Hayes informed the Justice Department of
their sloppy security, their reaction was to seize the equipment
and to try to prosecute Hayes for receiving information he
shouldn't have.
On October 29, 1991, District Court Judge Eugene
R. Siler issued an injunction forbidding Hayes from ever
"possessing, retrieving, copying, duplicating, disseminating,
disposing, transferring, selling, discussing or publishing, orally
or in any other manner, any information or data which was
stored in any part of the computer equipment or related items"
in lot 097. (The case is discussed somewhat in David
Burnham's *Above the Law: Secret Deals, Political Fixes,
and Other Misadventures of the U.S. Department of
Justice*.)
But Hayes sued and got his equipment back from the
government, along with an undisclosed settlement amount
(rumored to be around $80,000). In addition to Judge Siler,
part of the case between the Justice Department and Hayes was
heard by Judge J. B. Johnson, who is now an Appellate Judge
for the Sixth Circuit.
In August 1992 Hayes again testified to a Chicago
grand jury with respect to the Inslaw case, but his Chicago
testimony was redacted under the National Security Act.
Then in April 1996, Hayes provided Inslaw attorneys
with an affidavit that detailed the government's use of the
stolen PROMIS software. Hayes was afterward deposed by
Beth Cook of the Justice Department, who made numerous
attempts to entrap Hayes into either revealing his secret grand
jury testimony from Chicago, or to admit to violations of
Judge Siler's order.
Now Judge J. B. Johnson, curiously acting as a
District Judge for the Eastern District of Kentucky, has
signed a criminal complain against "Chalmer C. Hayes, also
know as Chuck Hayes, also known as Charles Hayes" (Case
Number 96-6101M, October 22, 1996). An indictment was obtained
by Joseph L. Famularo, U.S. Attorney in Lexington, Kentucky.
The timing of this complaint is curious, given that
Charles Hayes' most recent activity has been to assist the
Special Prosecutor Kenneth Starr draft indictments against
Hillary and Bill Clinton. Indictments for several people,
including Hillary, were signed by grand juries in Arkansas and
New York earlier this month.
According to the present criminal complaint, Hayes
supposedly contracted with an undercover FBI agent to have
Hayes' son killed for $5,000. (It is no secret that Hayes and
his son, who has had drug addiction problems in the past, do
not get along, and that there is some civil litigation pending
between them over an inheritance issue.)
An affidavit of FBI agent David R. Keller reports on
the activities of another, undisclosed "Undercover Agent
(UCA) of the FBI". This agent supposedly offered to kill
Hayes son, and Hayes discussed the matter with him over an
open phone line. Then Hayes conveniently sent a package of
documents to the agent, using his own return address. Then
this agent showed up at the Beckett Motel in Nancy, Kentucky,
where Hayes lives, while on his way to Louisville to scope
out the dirty deed, and Hayes gave him $100 in expenses.
Finally, Hayes promised this unidentified person $5,000 to be
paid a week after the hit.
Now I'm a novice at these matters, and it sure sounds
plausible to me that if I were going to have someone killed, I
would discuss the matter over the telephone so it could be
recorded, then send out incriminating documents using my
own return address, and finally invite the person over to my
house so all the neighbors can see the two of us spending time
together.
But would Hayes be this naive? Well, I've talked to
him on a daily basis for a year now, and all I can say is Hayes
is extremely circumspect in any phone conversation.
It would seem the Department of Justice hopes to kill
two birds with one stone: 1) to keep Charles Hayes locked
up past the election; and 2) to shut him up with respect to the
Inslaw Case and the stolen PROMIS software.
And, at least for the moment, they have succeeded.

The Metaphysics of Political Illusion
by J. Orlin Grabbe
Micah Morrison says he's never been able to
confirm Charles Hayes used to work for the CIA. That's
okay. I've never been able to confirm Micah Morrison
works for the *Wall Street Journal*. But he apparently gets
paid for something.
And most Kentucky junk dealers get their
testimony redacted under the National Security Act.
Because the chemical composition of ferrous oxide is now
a state secret.
There was a hearing today (Friday October 25)
about whether bond should be set for Charles Hayes. The
U.S. Attorney Joseph L. Famularo claimed Hayes was a
menace to society on account of he had been writing
articles under the pen name "J. Orlin Grabbe". They
explained the great threat posed by "Hackers Vs.
Politicians", and also discussed the literary works of
Robert Louis Stevenson..
Well, that's all very interesting, because here I am--
as Charles Hayes--posting to the Internet from my jail cell.
But as J. Orlin Grabbe, let me say this to you, Mr.
Famularo: You are not only a kook, but, moreover--you
stupid little shit--Chuck Hayes did not write one word of
"Hackers Versus Politicians." I resent you attributing to
another person the fruits and toil of my own efforts. But
then, you work for the Justice Department, don't you, Mr.
Famularo? No wonder you lie--it's in your nature.
Readers may fax Mr. Joseph Famularo at 606-233-
2666 to get his explanation why Charles Hayes and J.
Orlin Grabbe are the same person. Be careful what you
ask him, though. Mr. Famularo is somewhat
schizophrenic, and may decide that either you or he is also
Charles Hayes.
People are wondering what happened to the Starr
indictments. Nothing. Indictments were signed earlier this
month by grand juries both in New York and in Arkansas,
including an indictment of Hillary Rodham Clinton. I do
not know why they have not been announced, or why there
has been no bail hearing for Hillary. To withhold this
information from the voters is clearly playing politics.
Starr shouldn't do that. You can fax Mr. Kenneth Starr at
202-514-8802 and ask him to explain what's going on.

FOCUS ON CHARLES HAYES
======================
The book from which the following is excerpted, The Octopus:
Secret Government and the Death of Danny Casolaro, by Kenn Thomas
and Jim Keith, will be available in late November from Feral
House, POB 3466, Portland, OR 97208.
One person who might have had a view of how PROMIS works was
Charles Hayes. Newspapers identified Hayes as a salvage dealer
in Pulaski County, Kentucky, near the temporary home of Ari Ben-
Menashe in Lexington, who purchased $45 worth of surplus computer
equipment from the government in July 1990. The equipment
included 13 terminals, nine printers, two cartridge module
drives, 19 backup cartridges and two central memory
units--equipment that had been used by the US Attorney's office
since 1983 to maintain information via PROMIS on the witness
protection program, informants, office employees, and outstanding
grand jury cases. In August, when federal officials discovered
that a weak magnetic screwdriver had failed to purge this
information from the equipment adequately, two FBI agents
dispatched to make inquiries of Hayes were kicked out.(1) Three
days later, Hayes began to cooperate with the US Attorney's
office, denied that he had possession of any information that
might have been on the equipment, and invited an inspection.
Inspectors discovered that the serial numbers of the two
cartridge modules that Hayes claimed were the ones he bought did
not match the numbers of the modules the Justice Department had
sold. (2) Hayes then claimed he had sold the modules, but did
not name the purchasers until after federal officials filed a
lawsuit.(3) Justice Department attorneys later claimed that Hayes
had indeed tried to sell the secret information to an undercover
informant, but criminal charges were never filed. (4) The case
led to a congressional investigation of computer security; the
Justice Department now tosses rather than sells its extra data
storage devices.

...and
With the help of Wackenhut and the Cabazons, according to Ari
Ben-Menashe, the US developed its own version of the back-door
and the US and Israel began looking for a neutral company through
which it could sell the program to foreign intelligence services.
The company chosen for the task was Degem, a computer firm with
offices in Israel, Guatemala and the South African Bantustan
homeland. It had been taken over for the purpose by Robert
Maxwell, the publishing mogul who drowned under mysterious
circumstances in 1991. Through Maxwell's Degem, working in
tandem with Brian's Hadron, the software found a home with the
military regime in Guatemala, where it tracked leftist
insurgents. "Even if they traveled under a false name, various
characteristics, such as height, hair color, age, were fed into
roadside terminals and PROMIS searched through its database
looking for a common denominator. It would be able to tell an
army commander that a certain dissident who was in the north
three days before had caught a train, then a bus, stayed at a
friend's house, and was now on the road under a different name.
That's how frightening the system was." According to
Ben-Menashe, PROMIS was used in South Africa to track and squelch
the organizers of a strike among the black coal miners via their
mandatory identity cards (5). Degem also sold PROMIS to the
Soviet Union and the system was utilized by its GRU intelligence
service at least until the coup against Mikhail Gorbachev. (6)
(5) Oddly, a member of a congressional delegation sent on a fact-
finding tour to Johannesburg at the exact moment the world's
second largest platinum mine fired 20,000 black workers to end a
walk-out in January 1986, was Charles Hayes of Chicago. The mine
was located in the homeland of Bophuthatswana, northwest of
Johannesburg ("South African Platinum Mine Fires 20,000 Blacks
Over Strike," Lexington Herald Leader, January 7, 1986.) In
December of that year, the Charles Hayes, who would later buy the
loaded Justice Department computers but identified then as an
attorney, was involved with a gemstone smuggling operation in
Brazil with links to Kentucky. He represented one of the
Brazilian corporations indicted by the US over the smuggling.

Subject: Chuck Hayes Versus Bill Clinton
Chuck Hayes Versus Bill Clinton
by J. Orlin Grabbe
I had been out of state and only checked my
answering machine from time to time. When I got back to
Reno, I hit the button. There was a message from
Sherman Skolnick. Robert Strauss, a well-known
Democrat and head of a large law firm, had called him
three times. Strauss was threatening to have Sherman
arrested the next day, Monday.
"Has Strauss called you?" Sherman wanted to
know, when I returned the call. "No," I said. "He hasn't
threatened you?" Sherman asked. "No, but if he did, I
would tell him to go fuck himself," I replied.
Sherman had reported that Robert Strauss had lead
a delegation to the White House asking Bill Clinton to
resign. I had also reported the same meeting, albeit in
deliberately abbreviated form. I rarely paid any attention
to Skolnick, because most of his reporting was such a
mixture of truth and error, it would take more effort to
separate the two than to simply conduct ones own
investigation of the facts. But his account of the Strauss
meeting was quite accurate.
"Strauss was there, right?" Sherman seemed
unsure of his sources. "Or maybe there by
teleconference?"
"He was there, Sherman. He broke the ashtray just
like you said," I replied. I didn't tell Sherman the rest of
the exchange, the part he didn't know. Clinton had told
Strauss he could call the guards and have Strauss thrown
out of the White House. Strauss lost his temper: "You
do, and I'll break your fucking neck before they get here,"
he told Clinton. Two other people at the meeting stood
up: "And we'll help him," they said. (There were all sorts
of false reports about the meeting. John Glenn was there,
but only electronically. Ted Kennedy was not present.)
I told Sherman that Strauss was just blowing
smoke, and even though Strauss was a hot-head, I doubted
Strauss would do anything. Strauss had no legal basis for
doing so: Sherman's report was accurate. And I had no
reason to get involved: Strauss was doing the right thing
with respect to Bill Clinton, even if he was angry
Skolnick had reported the meeting. Strauss was not the
villain in the story. Bill Clinton was.
On Monday, August 5, shortly after the Strauss
visit, Chuck Hayes had a meeting with Bill Clinton.
Clinton had requested the meeting to discuss the issues
Strauss had raised. Clinton and Hayes had known each
other for years: Chuck Hayes had been Bill Clinton's CIA
controller, after Clinton was recruited into the CIA by
Cord Meyer of the London CIA station. Hayes had
supervised Clinton's forays into the Soviet Union, and it
was Hayes who had gotten Clinton out of not-so-
infrequent trouble while Clinton served the agency.
"Before I ever cross you, " Clinton once told
Hayes after having had his ass redeemed, "I hope I will
put a gun to my head and pull the trigger first."
I talked to Hayes about the Clinton meeting while
Hayes was still at the White House. He had explained to
Clinton some of the evidence that had been accumulated,
reinforcing what Strauss had said, and detailing numerous
other projected unpleasant consequences that would
accompany any decision to not resign.
The timing of this meeting was early in the game,
in what is now a full-scale war over Clinton's resignation.
Jim Guy Tucker was singing, specifically about Mena,
even while Tucker's lawyer was denying that Tucker was
cooperating out of fear that Tucker would be an
assassination target. Hayes, in a more practical mode, had
assigned two bodyguards to watch over Tucker.
In escalating the pressure on Clinton to resign, it
wasn't that Hayes disliked Bill Clinton as a person. It was
just that Hayes loved his country more, and wasn't going
to tolerate Clinton's participation in the transformation of
the U.S. into a narco-republic. It was Hayes who first
alerted me to Clinton's serious cocaine habit. In the mid-
80s, in Hayes' assessment, sure, Clinton would use coke at
parties, but it wasn't a daily problem. But now, Hayes
said, the coke was in control. And what Hayes claimed to
me about the seriousness of Clinton's cocaine habit, was
confirmed both by a White House source and by
personnel at Bethesda Naval Hospital. Clinton was doing
"five plus" lines of coke a day. That simply meant that
five lines was the *minimum* usage.
And it was Hayes and an associated group of
computer hackers calling themselves the "Fifth Column"
that was providing much of the financial and banking
evidence that Kenneth Starr needed to nail Bill Clinton to
the wall. This included downloading the entire White
House "Big Brother" data base (WHODB), complete with
its 2045 FBI files. (The Lippo computer was also
connected to the Big Brother system. Does this imply the
Lippo computer was also downloaded? I would advise
Mr. James Riady to choose sides carefully.)
Then Dick Morris resigned and began cooperating
with the Special Prosecutor. Clinton was panicked. Dick
Morris knew more about Clinton's illegal financial affairs
than anyone since Vince Foster (who had conveniently
died). Clinton wanted to meet again with Hayes to
discuss things. They agreed to a time and place. But then
Clinton cancelled at the last minute, and sent a jet to pick
up Hayes to take him to the new rendevous location.
Hayes refused to board the plane.
They finally met at an airstrip in Kentucky.
Clinton had an entourage that included Leon Panetta and
George Stephanopolous. Other witnesses to this meeting
include the Air Force Major who tried to intercept Hayes
as he approached the Presidential jet, and the member of
the Kentucky State Police who acted as Hayes'
bodyguard. Hayes and Clinton had a private conversation
in a motel room near the airfield. Hayes began by
presenting Clinton with a copy of one of my Internet posts
and an article from Barron's ("Federal agency attacked as
dispenser of corporate welfare," by Jim McTague,
September 16, 1996). The latter article gave context to a
lot of computer-generated information.
"Clinton's face turned whiter the more he read,"
according to Hayes. Their actual conversation is
confidential. But one incident that happened afterwards is
not.
A FEMA group showed up to talk to Hayes.
Clinton recognized them. "Did you tell them you were
going to be here?" Clinton asked.
"No," Hayes replied.
"Do you talk to them?"
"Daily."
"How serious are they?" Clinton wanted to know.
"Deadly."
Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton had got it into her
head that the Clinton's problems could be made to
disappear. First of all, Dick Morris--like Vince Foster--
knew too much. She had conversations with an obscure
group at the National Security Agency known as I3. She
discussed details of a plan to murder Dick Morris. They
also planned, provided the Dick Morris hit was
successful, the assassination of Chuck Hayes. But word
got out about the I3 plans. The men were arrested and
interrogated.
Hillary's next action (see "The Dickheads Are
Getting Desperate") was to send sixteen FBI and Secret
Service personnel down to Kentucky to make inquiries
whether there was "some way to get to that son-of-a-
bitch," meaning Chuck Hayes.
And, ultimately, they found the ammunition they
needed: 1) a local U.S. attorney who was representing the
Justice Department in its attempt to quash all evidence
with respect to the theft of the PROMIS software; 2)
Hayes' ex-wife and one of his sons, who were involved
with Hayes in an inheritance dispute; and 3) a lying FBI,
eager to deflect attention from Fifth Column evidence of
FBI involvement in drug-dealing.

Subject: Chuck Hayes Versus Bill Clinton II
Chuck Hayes Versus Bill Clinton II
by J. Orlin Grabbe
"Being the FBI apparently means never having to
say you are sorry."
--The Washington Times, October 30, 1996
"What do you say to a hero-turned-bombing-suspect
you carelessly and recklessly linked to the Olympic bombing
in Atlanta this summer--a man who has seen his reputation
ruined from coast to coast and dawn to dusk in newspapers,
magazines and on the airwaves, and for three months running
has been, in effect, a prisoner in his own home?
"Oops? Sorry? It was a bureaucratic snafu?
"Not if you're the FBI. In that case you say,
'Unfortunately, criminal investigations often intrude upon the
lives of private citizens like Mr. [Richard] Jewell and his
mother' " ("The Richard Jewell treatment," The Washington
Times, October 30, 1996).
It's not just that the FBI can't say they're sorry.
They're in the business of creating suspects and victims, in
adherence to a legal Say's Law: *The supply of law
enforcement creates its own demand*. FBI agents "used a
ploy to try to get Jewell to waive his constitutional right to
have a lawyer present while he was being questioned. . . . The
agents told Jewell that he was being questioned in a mock
setting in connection with a FBI training film about how to
interrogate a witness. In the course of the discussion, he was
asked to pretend to give up his rights by signing a waiver
form" ("FBI's Interview in Bombing Investigated by Justice
Dept.," The New York Times, October 30, 1996).
This is the same FBI that killed Randy Weaver's
family at Ruby Ridge. Afterward, a high-ranking official, E.
Michael Kahoe, destroyed an internal critique of the FBI's
performance in the episode.
This is the same FBI whose undercover agent made
an illegal interstate phone call from Alabama to Chuck Hayes
in Kentucky on September 10, 1996, to discuss the killing of
John Anthony Hayes, according to the affidavit of another FBI
agent (Affidavit of David R. Keller, October 22, 1996). Such
a phone call is in violation of Title 18, United States Code,
Section 1958. But being the FBI means you are allowed to
break the law. Subsequently, the Department of Justice
charged Hayes with causing this unidentified, uncover FBI
agent to use the telephone in interstate commerce in violation
of Title 18, Section 1958.
Now if I pick up the telephone and call U.S. Attorney
(and identity expert) Joseph Famularo, it is--of course--quite
clear that Joseph Famularo made me do it. "Mr. Famularo,
got anyone you would like me to kill for $100?" So there.
Can we arrest Mr. Famularo on the spot? The thug (and
identity expert) is clearly in violation of Title 18, Section 1958.
This is the same FBI that gassed and burned men,
women, and children at the Branch Davidian compound in
Waco, Texas.
Of course the FBI does face a certain problem in
Kentucky. It is not well-liked. For example, the Washington,
D.C. FBI office sent out two cars that were specially
equipped to vector in on a ground-to-satellite signal said to be
eminating from time to time from an unidentified roving truck.
One of these cars was driving down the freeway and
mysteriously caught fire. The driver of the other car went into
a restaurant and returned to find a bob cat in his vehicle. The
bobcat had ripped out the interior and electrical wiring, and
shit on the remains. (Apparently even animals don't like the
FBI in Kentucky.) While the agent peered at the bobcat
through the car window, a lady from the local humaine society
showed up and threatened to have him arrested for having a
wild animal in his car. (The bobcat, meanwhile, popped out
the back windshield and ran away into the woods.) The car
was towed away to a locked garage.
But the FBI would like to blame its problems on
Chuck Hayes. It has been gunning for Hayes for a long time.
It was Chuck Hayes who essentially ran Louis Freeh out of a
high-level intelligence meeting convened to discuss the
downing of TWA 800. The meeting was being conducted by
an explosive expert and friend of Hayes. Freeh kept
interrupting with unconstructive political statements--asserting
authority before evidence. The altercation ended with Freeh
being dragged out of the meeting.
No, Louis Freeh doesn't like Chuck Hayes. This is
the same Louis Freeh whose FBI uploaded 2045 of its files
into the White House "Big Brother" computer system, for
political use by the White House. And it was Freeh's nemesis,
Chuck Hayes, who testified about the 2045 files to a closed
and secret committee of the U.S. House of Representatives,
held without staff participation, but with an audience of eight
U.S. senators.
This is the same FBI who aided their informant Emad
Salem in constructing the bomb that blew up at the World
Trade Center in New York City on February 26, 1993
(combined report by Paul DeRienzo, Frank Morales and
Chris Flash, "Who Bombed the World Trade Center?" The
Shadow, Oct. 1994).
This is the same FBI that is an unchartered
organization--one never authorized by Congress. Thus FBI
agents are simply Justice Department employees, illegally
receiving benefits, illegally receiving pensions, and illegally
carrying weapons. And it is not a crime to lie to the
Department of Justice. If your client is in jail for lying to the
FBI, I can put you in touch with the proper attorney who has
a proven record in obtaining the release of such clients.
This is the same FBI whose head, Louis Freeh, was
terminated by the agency's payroll computer in Oklahoma on
the basis that the FBI was not a chartered organization. After
all, we all know that FBI files are secure and sacred, so the
computer could not lie, could it? But Louis Freeh seemed to
hold Chuck Hayes responsible for the incident. How could
this be so, when official court records have declared that
Chuck Hayes is computer illiterate? No, Louis Freeh must be
blaming Charles Hayes out of pure spite.
This is the same FBI that rushed to do the bidding of
the White House in the Travelgate firings, doing criminal
investigations of people who had just been unjustifiably
terminated to make room for the friends of Bill and Hillary.
This is the same FBI whose agent David R. Keller
writes as follows:
"I, David R. Keller, hereinafter referred to as Affiant,
after having been duly sworn, states as follows:
"1. That I am a Special Agent for the Federal Bureau
of Investigation (FBI), having been so employed since July 19,
1971. . . .
"2. On or about September 6, 1996, the Affiant
learned from the FBI Office in Birmingham, Alabama, that
Charles Hayes, who resides in Nancy, Kentucky, at the
Beckett Motel, was wanting to hire a hit man to kill an
individual named John Anthony Hayes who resides in
Louisville, Kentucky.
"3. Affiant is aware that on September 10, 1996, an
Undercover Agent (UCA) of the FBI, acting in an undercover
capacity, made a recorded telephone call from the State of
Alabama to Hayes, in Nancy, Kentucky, at telephone number
[omitted].
"During this conversation, Hayes told the UCA that he
(Hayes) had been expecting a call and that the UCA may be
able to help him. Hayes stated that he need it done as soon as
possible and agreed to send the UCA a photograph of the
victim. Hayes furnished descriptive information and
background of the victim.
"4. Affiant is aware that on October 4, 1996, a letter
was received at the post office in Birmingham, Alabama, with
a return address of P.O. Box 185, Nancy, Kentucky, and
appeared to have been postmarked 9/11/96. The letter
contained a photograph of the intended victim, John Anthony
Hayes, and documents containing background information on
Hayes including John Anthony Hayes' address and the
vehicles owned by John Anthony Hayes." (Affidavit of David
R. Keller, October 22, 1996).
I find this chain of supposed events remarkable. First
of all, the FBI affirms its undercover agent violated U.S. law
by making an interstate phone call volunteering to kill
someone. Then this admittedly illegal phone call is "backed
up" by incriminating evidence that arrives via the speedy U.S.
Post Office only 23 days later--with Hayes' return address on
it!
Well, that proves everything. If the letter had Chuck
Hayes' return address on it, Chuck must have send the
documents. And I'm sure looking forward to hearing those
tape recordings containing the word "victim".
In the meantime, I hope no one sends out any
incriminating documents with David R. Keller's return address
on them. Or Joseph Famularo's.

Conspiracy Nation -- Vol. 9 Num. 58

("Quid coniuratio est?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CHALMER "CHUCK" HAYES: MYSTERY MAN
==================================
The House Select Committee's final report on its investigation of
the assassination Dr. Martin Luther King describes FBI conduct
toward the slain civil rights leader as "morally reprehensible,
illegal, felonious, and unconstitutional." Subsequently the word
was that a "new" FBI, no longer like its former self, had arrived
and we could all relax. Yet the reports we've been hearing
lately on this federal busybody force belie the claim of
"modernity" -- whatever that's supposed to mean.
Does "new" and "modern" equal "better" when it comes to the FBI?
Not so. The Federal Bureau of Investigation's "new" face is no
different than its "old" face -- except that its agents are now
wearing nylon windbreakers bearing brazen and unashamed "FBI"
lettering on the back. It's still the same bunch that
"investigated" the JFK assassination; they have not changed their
ways. Waco, Ruby Ridge, Malcolm X's daughter, Richard Jewell:
these federal boys and girls, like Bill Clinton, just "do as they
please."
I know that Chalmer "Chuck" Hayes is an "ex"-CIA agent and many
may figure, "Who cares what happens to CIA people?" But the
point is that, like at Waco, all citizens, no matter how
unsavoury they might seem, are entitled to equal protection under
the law. The American Civil Liberties Union understood this
principle when, in the late 1970s, they defended the right of
Nazi swine to march in Skokie, Illinois.
Chuck Hayes, says local Kentucky newspaper the "Commonwealth
Journal," has been charged in a "murder for hire" scheme. This
charge is based on the FBI's claim that one of their agents,
working undercover, phoned Hayes and contracted to "scare, hurt,"
or murder Hayes's son in return for $100. Hayes, at last report,
is being held without bond. His location is not known.
According to an anonymous fax I received today (November 3,
1996), the charge against Hayes is false and is a maneuver by the
Clintons, Janet Reno, and FBI Director Louis Freeh against Hayes
"in an attempt to silence him and stop his investigation for Ken
Starr." What is more, adds the author of the anonymous fax, "the
delay in making the existing indictments from being made public
is only delaying the inevitable until after the election."
A preliminary check with one of my sources, an individual whom I
have code-named "Mr. Mercedes," leads me to believe that the
author of the anonymous fax is no lightweight in his access to
inside information.
The anonymous fax goes on to warn: "Welcome to Watergate II, you
sorry excuses for journalists. Sit back and watch the show
unfold with FEMA declaring a national emergency and voiding the
corrupt election of a criminal..." He adds that, "the Clintons
know their co-presidency is soon to collapse and they, along with
their cronies, are all heading to jail..."
(Personally I am thinking lately, "Hey, come to think of it, I'm
poor. So why should I care if Clinton gets in and taxes a bunch
of rich dudes?" Yet beyond economics it's a basic question of
right and wrong: no good can come from having a crook as
President, even if he is my crook.)
So not to get political (vote, or don't vote, for who you
please), but Charles Hayes, no matter what his past associations,
is a U.S. citizen with rights such as *habeas corpus*. No matter
one's personal opinion of him, the principle comes first: FBI
and the justice system has and does break the law it is
supposedly meant to serve. What is happening to Chuck Hayes is
an outrage, especially considering he is associated with an
unpopular, fringe group.

ALERT: FORWARD TO ROSS PEROT
============================
I received the following communique from a person known to me to
not be a lightweight in his knowledge of "deep politics"
(Professor Peter Dale Scott's term for esoteric American
politics; see his excellent book, *Deep Politics and the Death of
JFK, Berkeley: University of California Press, 1993.) The
person who authored the following communique is a questionable
quantity as far as I'm concerned: yes, he has inside knowledge,
but if or not he operates with a hidden agenda is unknown to me.
My usual policy with information that may be important is to pass
it along and let the reader make up her own mind.
Also I offer the caveat that the following communique betrays an
anti-Israel bias. My own opinion is that Israel is not the "big
bad wolf" that some imagine it to be. This is hinted at, for
example, by evidence showing Great Britain as puppet-master of
Israel. Also, if Israel buys the U.S. Congress, whose fault is
that? Israel's, or the Congress which is widely known worldwide
as being for sale to the highest bidder?
Finally, the author of the following communique makes mention of
Media Bypass magazine and, specifically, that magazine's
investigative reporter Lawrence Myers. Regarding Media Bypass
magazine, they have published some good material in the past, yet
lately seem to be wimping out with legal mumbo jumbo which goes
nowhere. (For a good, fiction-based-on-fact account of what a
dead-end labyrinthe legalisms can be, see *Bleak House* by
Charles Dickens.) As to Mr. Myers, for all I know he may be a
fine, honest reporter, maligned unjustly in some quarters.

immediately jailed thereafter. The *second* was a witness hidden
from the OKC bombing perpetrators (BATF/FBI/DOJ) but exposed by

Subject: Allegations Regarding Foster, NSA, Banks: Part 37
Part 37: Allegations Regarding Vince
Foster, the NSA, and Banking
Transaction Spying
by J. Orlin Grabbe
Shortly after finishing The End of Ordinary
Money, Part II, I received phone calls from Jim Norman
of Forbes Magazine, Bill Hamilton of Inslaw, and Gregory
Wierzynski, Assistant Staff Director of the House
Committee on Banking and Financial Services. They were
all interested in my references to money-laundering
activities in Arkansas financial institutions, as well as to
the use of the stolen PROMIS software in tracking
financial transactions.
Jim Norman was a Senior Editor at Forbes
Magazine whose article entitled Fostergate had been killed
by Malcolm S. ("Steve") Forbes. Forbes had done so at
the urging of Caspar Weinberger, the former Reagan
Secretary of Defense who was Chairman of the Board of
Forbes, Inc. Norman was interested in my references to an
NSA project to spy on banking transfers, because he had
information that Vince Foster, a Rose Law Firm partner,
oversaw such a project at Jackson Stephens' software firm
Systematics. He also wanted to get Fostergate published
elsewhere, and I promised to bring it to public attention
through the Internet. Not all of the material in the article
was familiar to me, but those parts that were had merit--
and in any case I didn't believe in military censorship of
information presented in civilian financial publications. (I
discovered soon enough, however, that most of the senior
staff of Forbes Magazine had ties to the intelligence
community, so perhaps Norman's experience was not all
that uncommon.)
Bill Hamilton of Inslaw had been pursuing a case
for years to collect from the U.S. government the value of
Inslaw's PROMIS software that had been stolen by the
U.S. Department of Justice. In its original form, the
PROMIS system was used for federal case management.
Another version had been converted for intelligence use in
tracking agents, operations, and movements. A CIA agent
named Michael Riconosciuto had worked on this version,
and--in connection with Bobby Inman of the National
Security Agency--had created code that would cause the
computer hardware to give off signals, disguised as noise,
when the program was running. (The standing waves
emitted can be modeled by mathematical functions called
"Walsh functions".) The program was then marketed
around the world by another CIA agent named Earl Brian,
who set up a company for that purpose. One of Earl
Brian's sales, made to the government of Brazil, was
observed by another CIA agent named Chuck Hayes.
Hayes had testified to this sale before a Chicago grand
jury, but his testimony had been redacted under the
National Security Act. These software sales were not
only profitable to Brian's company, but they also allowed
U.S. intelligence agencies to access the intelligence data of
the foreign country running the software. The signals
given off by the computer hardware could picked up by
nearby vans or, often, by satellite.
Another modification of the software had shown
up at the World Bank in 1983, where it was being used to
track wire transfers, apparently in connection with a
money-laundering operation that went from BCCI London
through the World Bank and into Caribbean institutions.
This was of considerable interest to me, because I had
learned in banking circles that the NSA was spying on
banking transactions, and that this apparently included
domestic financial transactions in certain instances.
Gradually I had learned that the NSA seemed to be
working through a Little Rock-based company called
Systematics, which was controlled by Jackson Stephens, a
principal financial backer of Bill Clinton, and a person
connected with the BCCI purchase of First American Bank
in Washington, D.C. In early 1995 I published on the
Internet a bibliography of Systematics' banking deals, and
in that context mentioned the name of Web Hubbell as
being associated with the NSA project--but I did not yet
know of Vince Foster's greater involvement. This
bibliography had apparently been used by Norman and
also by others pursuing the same story.
Gregory Wierzynski was interested in money
laundering. When I met with him and Stephen Ganis,
Counsel to the House Committee on Banking and
Financial Services, they were interested in any information
I knew of that connected Vince Foster to money-
laundering in Arkansas. I told them I had no non-public
information, and gave them a copy of Fostergate, which
Jim Norman had sent to me only a few days before. "Why
would Steve Forbes kill it?" Wierzynski wanted to know.
He knew Steve Forbes because Forbes, like Wierzynski,
had once served as head of Radio Free Europe. As time
passed, I became increasingly convinced that Wierzynski
was more involved in covering up than in actual
investigation. (Wierzynski's boss, Jim Leach, was
overheard saying to Newt Gingrich about the investigation,
"If we don't do something, this thing is going to get out of
hand." This gave me little confidence Leach was going to
conduct an aggressive search for the truth.) As best I
could tell, Wierzynski had been booted out of the
Pentagon after his son was caught hacking into Defense
Department computers.
Shortly after this meeting in June 1995, however, I
began my series of Vince Foster posts ("Allegations
Regarding Vince Foster, the National Security Agency,
and Banking Transactions Spying") on the Internet, and
sent copies along to the House Comittee on Banking and
Financial Services. A few days later Jim Leach wrote to
the Director of the National Security Agency asking about
the allegations:
"July 11, 1995
"Vice Admiral John McConnell, USN
"Director, National Security Agency
"Ft. George Mead, MD 20755
"Dear Admiral McConnell:
"I am writing to seek your agency's help in verifying or
laying to rest various allegations of money laundering in
Arkansas in the late 1980s. For that purpose, I would
request a briefing from NSA's Inspector General on
Friday, July 14 before 1:00 p.m.; if that is not possible,
sometime on Monday, July 17, would also be convenient.
"The reports I have in mind have appeared in the general
press and, sometimes in sensational form, in more narrow-
gauged outlets, including the Internet. They speak of
secret foreign bank accounts held by prominent people in
Arkansas, special software to monitor bank transfers, and
similar tales. I would like to determine whether there is
any substance at all to these stories.
"Specifically, I would like your Inspector General to tell
me whether the Agency:
"(1) knows of any secret bank accounts held by U.S.
citizens domiciled in Arkansas at any time between 1988
and now;
"(2) is aware, directly or indirectly, of any efforts by
computer hackers, U.S.-government related or otherwise,
to penetrate banks for the purpose of monitoring accounts
and transactions;
"(3) knows of or has participated, directly or indirectly, in
efforts to sell software--notably versions of a program in
use at the Justice Department called PROMIS--or
clandestinely produced devices to foreign banks for the
purpose of collecting economic intelligence and
information about illicit money transfers;
"(4) is cognizant of any attempts by Systematics Inc, an
Arkansas-based electronic data processor that is now a
division of Alltell [Alltel], to monitor or engage in the
laundering of drug money or proceeds of other illegal
activities, notably those conducted through Mena,
Arkansas;
"(5) can produce information about Charles Hayes, a
businessman in Nancy, Kentucky, who claims to have
been a CIA operative in Latin and Central America, among
other places;
"(6) knew of or was involved in, directly or indirectly, any
covert activities by the U.S. government or any private
parties (the so-called "private benefactors") in or around
Mena in the late 1980s;
"(7) had any contractual or other relationship with the late
Adler Barriman "Barry" Seal in the 1980s or knew about
his activities in connection with Mena.
"I would appreciate your help in shedding light on these
matters.
"Sincerely,
"James A. Leach

Part 38: Allegations Regarding Vince
Foster, the NSA, and Banking
Transactions Spying
by J. Orlin Grabbe
(continued from Part 37)
What answers Jim Leach's House Committee on
Banking and Financial Services received from the
National Security Agency's (NSA's) Inspector General is
not known, but apparently the NSA stonewalled the
investigation. On July 23, 1995, Gregory Wierzynski
emailed me, asking "Do you have suggestions on how we
could verify some of the elements in the Norman story?
I've talked to Chuck in Kentucky and am still in touch
with him. But his stories have not panned out, even
partially. I would be most interested in your ideas." I
found this statement remarkable, and knew that
Wierzynski was being deliberately obtuse. Moreover,
neither I--nor anyone else of my acquaintance--had told
Wierzynski that I was talking to Chuck Hayes in Nancy,
Kentucky.
Jim Norman had first suggested that I call Hayes--
had even implied that Hayes wanted me to call--but
initially I had been reluctant to do so. There were enough
people trying to get me off the Internet, and I was dubious
of the motives of an ex-intelligence operative. But when I
finally did so, we spent a hour and twenty minutes on the
phone in a wide-ranging conversation about money-
laundering. I jumped around from topic to topic, bringing
up numerous obscure connections between the
intelligence community and banking. In each case Hayes
was right there with me, adding details to what we were
discussing. From time to time I would make deliberate
mis-statements to see if Hayes would catch the
discrepancies. He did. By the end of the conversation it
did not matter to me whether Chuck Hayes was just a
hillbilly Kentucky junk dealer or an ex-member of CIA's
division D. His knowledge spoke for itself. He had an
intimate acquaintance with banking wire transfers, bank
computer operations, and banking-intelligence
connections, as well as detailed insights into current
hidden money-laundering channels.
Hayes was already familiar with my article *The
End of Ordinary Money*. He said he had gotten his copy
from the CIA library. The CIA had apparently either
downloaded it from the Internet, or perhaps had obtained
it through Robert Steele. Eric Bloodaxe, a.k.a. Chris
Goggans, an ex-Legion of Doom member who edited a
hacker publication called *Phrack*, had suggested I sent
copies to Winn Schwartau of *Information Warfare* fame,
and to Robert Steele, whose company Open Source
Solutions, Inc., published a newsletter entitled *OSS
Notices*, which advocated some radical changes to the
process of intelligence collection. Steele had reviewed
them as follows: "J. Orlin Grabbe has produced the first
two in a series of three papers on digital cash, and I found
them both educational and provocative. . . . He
approaches the matter from a civil libertarian/civil
disobedience perspective, and I find his perspective on the
history of U.S. policy and technology, as well as the
alternatives, well-worth review. This is a thoughtful
popular perspective on issues of electronic privacy which
bears on both the protection of intellectual property and
electronic civil defense" (*OSS Notices*, vol. 3, issue 5,
May 31, 1995).
Chuck and I had some differences, to be sure.
Hayes was spending much of his time tracking drug-
money laundering through the U.S. financial system. I
looked at the War on Drugs from an economic
perspective: supply restriction leading to vast profit
margins, with concomitant political payoffs and political
corruption, while in the meantime prisons were being
over-crowded with casual drug users. It was an exercise
in insanity. Nor was I a fan of the DEA, with its record of
civil rights violations. Hayes, by contrast, liked the DEA
for their street smarts, which contrasted with the desk-
level bureaucrats he was somewhat contemptuous of at
the CIA. But Hayes was gunning for the people at the top
of the drug-dealing and money-laundering pyramid, and
this was fine with me. There was a close association
between those administering the War on Drugs, and those
profiting from it. In the case of money-laundering, it was
even more blatant: it was hard to differentiate the money
launderers from those that administered the money-
laundering laws. I did not approve of the money-
laundering laws themselves with their invasions of
personal financial privacy. But on the other hand, hoisting
government junkies on their own petard did not perturb
me. Over a period of time, Hayes and I developed an
information-sharing arrangement.
Hayes was at the moment following the financial
flows through Arkansas financial institutions, as well as
through Mellon Bank in Pittsburgh. Also involved were
New York banks, some members of the Chicago
Mercantile Exchange, and at least one important official
at the Federal Reserve. On the Arkansas front, Hayes was
quite open in telling me he was going to nail Jim Guy
Tucker to the wall, and over the following year I watched
him do just that. One might assume from such a
statement that Hayes was a Republican, out to get
Democrats. But in fact Hayes' father had been a local
Democrat party official, and Hayes had been a friend and
admirer of John Kennedy. Hayes was not political in that
sense, any more than I was.
Some people have a strange habit of trying to
interpret everything in political terms. When I first spoke
to Sarah McClendon, she asked me, "Why are people
saying all these things about Clinton, and they aren't
saying anything about George Bush?" I refused to bite. I
told her I didn't give a shit about the difference between
Republicans and Democrats--that this was about
criminality, not about partisan politics. Some people--
Republican or Democrat--are honest, and some are not.
Sarah herself kept referring to the Clintons (Bill and Hill)
as "virgins," which amused me to no end. But my interest
was not partisan, and never has been.
In a contrary vein, Jack Blum, who recently joined
Jim Leach's House Committee on Banking as an
investigator (and who quickly recommended they drop
their Mena investigation), told Marianne Gasior that I was
a right-wing nut because of what I had written about Bill
and Hillary Clinton. Marianne said, "I don't think so,"
and read off my resume. Blum's response: "You're
kidding." Gasior was politically a liberal Democrat, and
when she was pursuing a case against Kennametal, which
had done business with Iraq during the Gulf War, she
received some support from Democrat politicians,
because the issue was embarrassing to Republican
interests. *Time Magazine* did a write-up of her efforts ("A
Matter of Honor," June 21, 1993). But when she began to
ask questions about what Hillary Clinton was doing on
the board of Lafarge Corporation, which was part of the
same smuggling network, Democrat support for her
research quickly evaporated (see "Whatever Happened to
Iraqgate?", *The American Spectator*, November 1996.)
To the average political hack, partisanship always takes
precedence over the search for truth.
In Wierzynski's case, while supposedly
investigating money-laundering for the House Committee,
he seemed to be actually serving other interests--perhaps
the Pentagon's, perhaps someone else's. Hayes had come
up with financial records showing that fifty to seventy
million dollars a day of drug-related money was being
laundered through the institutions he was looking at.
Wierzynski couldn't understand how such a thing was
possible. He wanted "proof" in a neat little package, say a
memo entitled "Today's Money-Laundering Report". He
seemed to expect to ask a few questions, and then *voila!*--
the darkest secrets of American political life would be
exposed. So it is not surprising that Wierzynski's
investigation had gone nowhere before Jack Blum arrived
to call the whole thing off. Meanwhile, Wierzynski's son,
in school in England, had been indicted for supplying
information to a group of Russian hackers in St.
Petersburg, who had pulled off a heist of Citibank funds.
Both Wierzynski and Stephen Gannis, the Counsel
for the House Committee on Banking and Finance, were in
touch with a San Francisco attorney named Charles O.
Morgan. Systematics (now a subsidiary of Alltel) had
hired Morgan to lie about its relationship to the NSA, and
Morgan proceeded to do just that. In an April 5, 1995,
letter to Michael Geltner, an attorney for Agora, Inc.,
Morgan wrote: "None of ALLTEL's operations or
subsidiaries has ever had any connection in any capacity
with the Central Intelligence Agency, the National
Security Agency, or any other similar agency in the
United States Government; . . ." But recent documents
obtained under the Freedom of Information Act by *The
Washington Weekly* from NSA show that, for example,
that "The Arkansas-based security contractor Systematics
Inc. on September 14, 1990 was awarded a $166,000 NSA
contract to build a 'Sensitive Compartmented Information
Facility' (SCIF) in Ft. Gillem, Georgia" (*The Washington
Weekly*, Nov. 11, 1996).
Morgan similarly denied any connection between
Web Hubbell and Systematics, writing, "Webster Hubbell
never served as an attorney or in any other capacity for
ALLTEL Corporation, or for any of its operations or
subsidiaries, other than a single instance in 1983, when
Systematics, Inc., engaged Mr. Hubbell to pursue a
competitor that was using Systematics, Inc.'s propriety
software without authorization; . . ." But it is a matter of
public record that when in 1978 Jackson Stephens tried to
take over First American bank (later acquired by BCCI),
that the bank sued Systematics along with BCCI, Bert
Lance, and Jackson Stephens. Filing briefs for
Systematics were Webster Hubbell, along with C.J. Giroir
and Hillary Rodham Clinton. (Hubbell subsequently went
to the Justice Department, and then to jail, after receiving
a $500,000 payment for unspecified legal services from
Indonesia's Lippo Group. C.J. Giroir left the Rose Law
Firm and set up a consulting firm to arrange deals
between the Lippo Group and Arkansas-based firms.
Hillary Clinton recently declared her friendship for ex-
Lippo employee and Democrat fund-raiser John Huang,
and was also indicted by grand juries in Little Rock and in
New York in October 1996. These indictments have not
yet been made public.)
But the non-pursuit of the drug-money laundering
trail by the Leach Committee was not surprising. It
stepped on too many toes. Hayes and I agreed that the
U.S. was being rapidly transformed into a narco-republic.
The drug cartels had penetrated the highest levels of the
Justice Department and the FBI, elements of the
intelligence community, and were additionally bribing a
broad assortment of state and federal government
employees and politicians. Even more alarming, the
cartels were now making inroads into the White House.
And the Clinton administration, with lax security
stemming largely from a variety of drug-related issues,
along with a pre-existing legacy of political corruption in
Arkansas, had created a free-for-all playground for
foreign agents. Everything was for sale, from trade policy
to nuclear codes. Moreover, Bill Clinton (or perhaps those
he surrounded himself with, while he partied on the side)
was making rapid progress in turning the FBI and the
Secret Service into a private political police force--a
Gestapo whose duty was to investigate and harass (and
even kill) his political opponents, and to cover up
evidence of his own bad deeds.
Extraordinary times required extraordinary
measures. Enter the Fifth Column.

Part 39: Allegations Regarding Vince
Foster, the NSA, and Banking
Transactions Spying
by J. Orlin Grabbe
(continued from Part 38)
The creation of the Fifth Column to deal with
official corruption was necessitated by a confluence of
several factors.
1. First of all, there is the corruption of the Justice
Department itself. One couldn't simply turn over the
fruits of a lot of hard investigative work, involving both
financial and other information, to the Department of
Justice, and expect to see justice done. The Justice
Department is part and parcel of the same corrupt system.
Nowhere is this more in evidence than the theft by
"trickery, deceit, and fraud" (in the words of a federal
bankruptcy judge) of the PROMIS software. The Justice
Department is bent on discrediting, ruining, or indicting
anyone who is harmful to the government's case. The
Department's carrot-and-stick method of operation can be
seen from the following paragrahs found in an affidavit of
Michael J. Riconosciuto (March 21, 1991):
"In February 1991, I had a
telephone conversation with Peter
Videnieks, then still employed by the U.S.
Department of Justice. Videnieks
attempted during this telephone
conversation to persuade me not to
cooperate with an independent
investigation of the government's piracy of
INSLAW's proprietary PROMIS software
being conducted by the Committee on the
Judiciary of the U.S. House of
Representatives.
"[Carrot:] Videnieks stated that I
would be rewarded for a decision not to
cooperate with the House Judiciary
Committee investigation. Videnieks
forecasted an immediate and favorable
resolution of a protracted child custody
dispute being prosecuted against my wife
by her former husband, if I were to decide
not to cooperate with the House Judiciary
Committee investigation.
"[Stick:] Videnieks also outlined
specific punishments that I could expect to
receive from the U.S. Department of
Justice if I cooperate with the House
Judiciary Committee's investigation.
"[Stick #1:] One punishment that
Videnieks outlined was the future inclusion
of me and my father in a criminal
prosecution of certain business associates
of mine in Orange County, California, in
connection with the operation of a savings
and loan institution in Orange County. By
way of underscoring his power to influence
such decisions at the U.S. Department of
Justice, Videnieks informed me of the
indictment of these business associates
prior to the time when that indictment was
unsealed and made public.
"[Stick #2:] Another punishment
that Videnieks threatened against me if I
cooperate with the House Judiciary
Commitee [sic] is prosecution by the U.S.
Department of Justice for perjury.
Videnieks warned me that credible
witnesses would come forward to
contradict any damaging claims that I
made in testimony before the House
Judiciary Committee, and that I would
subsequently be prosecuted for perjury by
the U.S. Department of Justice for my
testimony before the House Judiciary
Committee."
2. Secondly, there is the corruption of
congressional investigative bodies. "We tried in the early
90s to take the evidence to all the appropriate legislative
committees," Chuck Hayes told me. "We ended up with
egg all over our faces." For how do you get members of
the House and Senate to investigate illegal drug-dealing,
arms-dealing, and money-laundering, when many of these
same people are on the take from drug dealers, arms
dealers, and money launderers? Before this route would
work, you would have to first root out many of the same
corrupt members of congress. One way to do this would
be to get them to resign, or to agree to not run for re-
election, by presenting them with evidence documenting
their corruption. (You would also hope for, eventually, an
honest Justice Department, so these same legislators could
also be prosecuted.) Over the past year, a number of
Capitol Hill residents, not to mentioned state government
officials and corporate executives, were visited by a very
large man bearing a package containing 200 to 300 pages
of financial and other documentation. They subsequently
resigned, usually "to spend more time with their families."
3. Finally, there is the general inattention of the
news media, and their unwillingness to do any serious
investigation on their own. The media is often content to
relay the content of government handouts, or to get quotes
from each of two opposing sides. To actually go on a
search for evidence and to subject it to hard analysis is
foreign to them. The *New York Times*, for example, is not
that keen on pursuing corruption in the Clinton
administration. Nor has the media shown a great
propensity for independent analysis of the circumstances
involving the death of Ron Brown, the downing of TWA
800, or the political funding scandals associated with the
Lippo Group.
The Fifth Column was organized in the matter of a
carefully thought-out intelligence operation. There were
layers within layers. But at heart the Fifth Column is
essentially a mobile computer, and the people who
program it, tend to it, and run it. The computer is very
powerful, necessary to do the work of correlating data
from many sources. The computer must remain mobile to
avoid detection and ransacking by corrupt FBI agents who
are themselves targets of the Fifth Column investigation.
Communication is handled by a variety of methods,
including use of an earth-to-satellite signal.
Bill Clinton's political Gestapo has invested
considerable time and effort in an attempt to trace the
computer-carrying truck. The Washington, D.C. office of
the FBI sent out two cars to Kentucky that were specially
equipped to vector in on a ground-to-satellite signal.
They ran into problems with the local wildlife, however,
including a bobcat who ripped out the interior and panel
wiring in one car. (This bobcat is now alleged to be on
the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list.) On another occasion,
hearing that the truck was returning from Little Rock, the
Department of Transportation, along with the FBI and the
Secret Service, for a time stopped and searched every
truck leaving Arkansas on Interstate 40. (Do you ever
wonder why truckers don't love the Feds?) On a third
occasion, someone started a rumour that the truck was
traveling under the guise of Frito-Lay--with the
consequence that every truck departing the company was
stopped for inspection. The only public representative of
the Fifth Column is Chuck Hayes himself.
The pursuit of corruption is a deadly business. I
went to Kentucky and spent a week with Hayes, and his
last statement to me at the airport was: "Watch yourself.
I don't want another Casolaro on my hands." Danny
Casolaro was one of the few journalists Hayes respected.
Hayes and Casolaro had slowly developed a relationship,
and Hayes had become an important source of
information for Casolaro. Hayes had tried to dissuade
Casolaro from going to his final, fatal rendevous. On
August 9, 1991, the last day of his life, Danny Casolaro
said he had arranged a meeting with Peter Videnieks and
Robert Altman to trade them some documents in which
they were interested for further documents regarding the
sale of the modified PROMIS software. Robert Altman
was a former attorney for Bert Lance who became
President of First American Bank after it was taken over
by BCCI. Peter Videnieks was the Justice Department
official mentioned above in Riconosciuto's affidavit, as
well as a former Customs official who had cleared the
PROMIS software for export. The meeting had been
arranged by a covert intelligence operative of the U.S.
Army Special Forces named Joseph Cuellar.
A friend of Danny's had been keeping two sealed
envelopes. According to a signed affidavit (which I will
call the "F Affidavit," for his protection), the friend says,
"On August 9, 1991, I delivered two packets of
documents that I had kept for Mr. Casolaro to him in
Martinsburg, W. Va. . . . Danny had told me that [the]
meeting had been arranged by Joseph Cuellar. That he
was to meet with someone from Sen. Byrds office and
from the I.R.S., plus Peter Videnieks and Robert Altman.
He was to exchange some documents that was to their
interest in order to get more info on Promis. He had told
me that Altman only agreed after he was told papers
would be sent to Robert Morgenthau."
Casolaro was found dead in Room 517 in the
Martinsburg Sheraton Inn about 12:30 the following day.
A person was seen leaving his room shortly before he was
found dead, but the FBI never interviewed the eyewitness,
nor showed her pictures of likely suspects. They were in
a hurry to close the matter as one more "suicide" (much as
in the later case of Vince Foster). Documentary evidence
also shows that Earl Brian, the person who marketed the
PROMIS software to intelligence agencies around the
world, was in Martinsburg that same day. (Brian was
subsequently indicted for, and convicted of, financial
irregularities while he was head of three separate
companies: Infotechnology, Financial News Network,
and United Press International.)
When the Clinton administration came into office,
Attorney General Janet Reno appointed Webster Hubbell
to handle the Inslaw case, as well as questions concerning
Casolaro's death. Hubbell's assistant on the entire matter
was Stephen Zipperstein, who was subsequently
appointed to a position in the U.S. Attorney's office in Los
Angeles, with a mandate to sit on the indictment of Earl
Brian. (Brian was indicted by a grand jury in June 1994,
but the indictment was not made public until September
1995.) That is, the Justice Dept. attorney appointed to
oversee the Inslaw case and the issue of Casolero's death,
was the same person appointed to protect Earl Brian--who
was a principal target of the Inslaw case, and very
possibly a member of the group that killed Danny
Casolero. Hence the old equation: "investigation" =
cover-up.
At the time of his death, Casolaro had computer
printouts and documents he had received from a National
Security Agency (NSA) employee named Alan Standorf.
These included "wire transfers (copies) of monies paid to
Earl Brian and sent to shell companies in the Cayman
Islands and Switzerland that came from accounts held by
foreign agents and governments at the World Bank and
BCCI" (*F Affidavit*). Some of the documents received
from Standorf "were classified Top Secret and some had
letters SCI [Sensitive Compartmented Intelligence]" (*F
Affidavit*). Some time after Casolaro's death, Alan
Standorf himself was found dead, having been stuffed into
the trunk of a car at the National Airport in Washington,
D.C.
No, I would say I didn't want another Casolaro on
anyone's hands any more than Hayes did.

Orlin Grabbe Versus Joseph Famularo III
by J. Orlin Grabbe
US Attorney Joseph Famularo now says he doesn't
know what went on at the bail hearing for Chuck Hayes in
London, KY, on Friday, Oct. 25. After all, he sent his
assistant Martin Hatfield (606-864-5523) to ask questions
of FBI agent David Keller. Famularo had more important
things to do. Like prepare for Bill Clinton's visit to
Lexington. Or play golf.
Yes, Famularo says he did get Orlin Grabbe's
faxes. But he didn't ask Martin Hatfield about them.
Hatfield is much too important for that. Hatfield's even
more important than Janet Reno. Hatfield is god. If
Hatfield wants Famularo to know something, he'll tell him.
Otherwise Famularo had better mind his own business.
Yes Famularo's name is on the grand jury
indictment for Chuck Hayes. But he doesn't know
anything about that either. After all, he had First Assistant
US Attorney Marianne What's-the-name sign that. He
can't keep track of what Marianne does. Marianne's been
out of control for a long time.
Yes, Famularo does have that Criminal Complaint
(Case #96-6101M) signed by Special Agent of the FBI
David Keller, Complainant, and J.B. Johnson, Jr., Judicial
Officer. That's why he sent Hatfield over. Hatfield just
does whatever the FBI tells him to do. The FBI gave him
a list of questions to ask. That's fine, because the FBI
always tells the truth. And they always get their man, like
at Waco and Ruby Ridge, and with Richard Jewell in the
Atlanta bombing. Besides, David Keller has a nice ass.
No, Joseph Famularo is not responsible for what
goes on in the US Attorney's office. Usually he just lets
Wanda Roberts run things. Or the janitor. Or the janitor's
dog. Famularo isn't responsible for any of the cases. Or
for any of the questions asked in court. Or for the quality
of the evidence. Or for anything the FBI says or does.
Yes, Joseph Famularo is kind of like Max
Headroom. His mind is a blank slate, a tabula rasa. He
sees nothing. He hears nothing. He knows nothing.
Except, of course, when it comes to the identity of Chuck
Hayes and Orlin Grabbe. Famularo knows they are the
same person. He's got the cash to prove it.

Conspiracy Nation -- Vol. 9 Num. 79
======================================
("Quid coniuratio est?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CHARLES S. HAYES CONSTITUTIONAL NATIONAL SECURITY ALERT
=======================================================
In CN 9.59 was posted info from a source "known to me not to be a
lightweight." The following communique comes from that same
source. I don't know whether I'm free to reveal his name. I can
give some insight on him by pointing to a video of a lecture
given by retired NYPD vice squad detective James Rothstein: in
that tape, Rothstein mentions that, on his way to Oklahoma City
to privately investigate the Murrah Building bombings, he stopped
in a certain city to pick up this person and bring him along.
Here is the latest info, received today, 12/7/96, from the
un-named source, henceforth (for future reference) given the code
name "Mr. Boderby."
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
THREE OPTIONS WERE PRESENTED TO BOY BILL, in order to accomplish
his departure, owing to Boy Bill [Clinton] using 5+ lines of coke
per day.
These options, among others, were detailed to Boy Bill by Robert
Strauss (in an ashtray smashing meeting with Boy Bill) and by
Chuck Hayes in a more recent, more calm, meeting with Boy Bill at
a small airport in Kentucky.
First Option
------------
1. Easiest and best for Boy Bill: let wife be scandalized
(Whitewater indicted) as indirect, non-personal reason for
stepping down.
Second Option
-------------
2. Direct personal emergency 25th Amendment bi-partisan and
medical committee declaration of presidential unfitness owing to
5+ lines of personal cocaine use per day by Boy Bill.
Third Option
------------
3. Direct personal responsibility for *Mena*, Arkansas massive
cocaine drug importation and nationwide distribution during
governorship and continuing into presidency.
Detailed data of option 1 and general data concerning options 2
and 3 (thru the first week of 96 *December*) follow:
I.
--
Option 1 was chosen owing to a desire to not too obviously
duplicate still-remembered USA history.
Sufficient world powers agreed to eliminate Kennedy, therefore he
was assassinated; however it was too recently done to assassinate
Nixon, therefore it was agreed for Nixon to be directly
personally scandalized out of office (Watergate). Nixon was too
recent to directly personally scandalize Boy Bill, therefore
certain powers agreed to eliminate Boy Bill by indirect family
(wife) scandalization. The scandal being in major part financial
crimes (Whitewater).
The counter-strike, possibly death knell, to this Option 1 is the
96/Dec/3 decision to let convicted felon Charles Keating go scott
free on all convictions for all financial crimes. The Keating
federal and state financial crimes jury convictions were the
model, plan, precedent for wife's [Hillary's] planned financial
crimes indictment and intended jury conviction if necessary.
However, the following White House counter-strike has intervened
into planned Option 1:
1(a). 96/April, J. Reno Dept. of Injustice sudden decision to
drop all lesser charges still pending as to Keating financial
crimes.
1(b). 96/April, J. Reno Dept. of Injustice sudden urgent need
for a marathon 7-hour (183 pages) deposition of Chuck Hayes on a
case well over 10 years old (Inslaw). (There is a saying in the
covert world: set the trap; then, *wait 6 months!*)
Note Dates:
-----------
(1) 96/Oct/3 (6 months later), Bond allowed for convicted felon
Keating (on all state and federal convictions).
(2) 96/Oct/3, Bond allowed "*in* *advance*" of any decision.
(3) 96/Oct/9, Signed but not made public, grand jury indictments
of wife [Hillary] suddenly called back for urgent re-wording and
re-signing; the Fifth Column's only public figure, Chuck Hayes,
involved in writing/re-writing wife indictments.
(4) Whether the re-writing and re-signing allegedly completed by
96/Oct/18 ever will be made public or will be forever suppressed
owing to the amazing co-incidental timing of the incredibly
corrupt Keating 96/Oct/3 bond and 96/Dec/3 decision made up from
reasoning scraped off the floor of a horse barn remains to be
seen.
(5) 96/Oct/22, Chuck Hayes swooped on, false arrested, by
unchartered FBI SWAT team.
(6) 96/Oct/22, "No bond" written into false arrest warrant for an
alleged "*attempt*" to do something that never happened -- before
any bond hearing. Remarkably, Keating with multiple felony jury
convictions for crimes fully perpetrated in separate state and
federal courts was given bond on 96/Oct/3 with no hearing
decision.
(7) 96/Oct/25, Hayes kangaroo alleged hearing -- "No bond"
allowed.
(8) 96/Oct/28, Wildly inaccurate "Hayes" alleged court findings
by J.B. Johnson magistrate judge issued, based on 96/Oct/25
kangaroo hearing -- "No bond" is the order!!!
(9) 96/Nov/22, Magistrate Judge J.B. Johnson motion hearing --
"No bond" repeated, but bond matter referred in open court in
front of 50+ witnesses to federal Judge Barbara Coffman for full
hearing. Ironically, this is the very day Bob Strauss sponsored
and hosted leading Communist Russian General Aleksandr Lebed on
Lebed's first trip to the USA.
(10) 96/Nov/26, Barbara Coffman orders corrections in 96/Oct/28
alleged findings owing to gross errors but "*without hearing*" on
specific issue of bond. Barbara Coffman went out of her way to
announce, apparently on orders from "above," that she is in
lockstep -- "No bond" -- and further, "no bond" hearing would be
allowed to commence despite 96 hours earlier J.B. Johnson had
announced in front of 50 witnesses that a bond hearing would be
commenced in front of Barbara Coffman upon motion of Chuck Hayes,
which motion was filed on 96/Nov/22 for 96/Nov/26 hearing, but
immediately denied out of hand without hearing by Barbara Coffman
on 96/Nov/26.
(11a) 96/Dec/3, Keating set free; decision based on alleged "jury
contamination." That is, that the Keating scandal was so well
known and so well publicized that the jurors had heard of the
matter in advance of the trial (hearing of the matter somehow
equals "contaminated"), therefore, each and every conviction in
separate state and federal courts was thereby overturned by one
lower-level federal judge, Marianne Pfeizer, in one all-inclusive
mysterious decision.
Most probably any and every juror could be claimed to be
contaminated because it could be claimed that any person has
heard of Keating and/or financial crimes such as Whitewater.
Under this corrupt false decision, wife [Hillary] could never
be tried by any USA juror because any and every adult in our USA
could be claimed to have heard of wife and Whitewater.
(11b) 96/Dec/2 had been date pre-set at the time of false arrest
to commence Chuck Hayes' jury trial on a false arrest in the last
week of Oct. (with no discovery and the alleged criminal charge
itself not provided to the false arrest victim for over five
weeks after arrest.)
(12) Much of Chuck Hayes' efforts and the Fifth Column's perilous
and life-threatening labors of many months have now been reduced
to ashes by one more female federal black-robed Hillary covencat,
Marianne Pfeizer, spellcasting onto the men of the Fifth Column:
"Ashes, ashes, all fall down!!"
II.
---
With regard to Option 2, amazingly coincidental with the timing
of the Option 1 defensive White House counter-strike corrupt
Keating court decision is that the very same day (96/Dec/3),
Fifth Column offensive Option 2 was put into play on nationwide
radio, print, lengthy focused coverage by major TV, on Dr.
O'Toole and the bi-partisan joint medical committee set up in the
recent past to deal with a potential emergency 25th Amendment
problem during the Nixon administration and how the same
emergency mechanism is now in place during this Boy Bill current
administration.
Unblessedly, a counter-measure to a 25th Amendment emergency
bi-partisan joint medical committee is an even greater war power
emergency such as a plague, natural disaster, military action
inside or outside USA, triggering a martial law declaration.
III.
----
The counter-measure being put into play to the #3 "*Mena*" option
is a re-hearing of the Noriega appeal and a re-trial, with the
plan being that coverage of that situation focusing on the
Bush/Ollie crack cocaine (San Jose Mercury) epidemic would dwarf
any Mena exposure.
Another recent remarkable "*Mena*" co-incidence as to Noriega and
Option 3, for over 200 years every foreign extradition type of
case was held in D.C. federal circuit. The Noriega case was held
in the Janet Reno origin and controlled Miami court, also the
jurisdiction of Homestead Air Force base (Florida), where USA
pentagramagon joint chief's boss, Communist General
Shalikashvilli's underling Air Force generals (such as General
Cherry, now in Kentucky) and Jeb Bush met the dope-laden USA Air
Force planes coming in from Panama.
With the unconstitutional and improper Reno Dept. of
Injustice-arranged Florida venue Noriega trial, one might expect
an improper Florida appeal, or if any effort at a false
appearance of proper procedure were made, one might expect a D.C.
appeal.
Under our current Dept. of Injustice, however, the case was
recently assigned to the fixed venue that corruptly covered up
the $5 billion agricultural credits from George Bush to Clayton
Yeuter (US Dept. of Ag.) to BNL (Banco Nacional de Lavoro, Italy)
to Matrix Churchill (London) to weapons for Saddam Hussein used
to kill Americans and Arabs in the Gulf War. The BNL case, that
was only recently completed with records hidden, is known as the
BNL/Atlanta case owing to the BNL/Atlanta branch being used in
part to transfer $5 billion in Agricultural credits into arms for
our USA pentagramagon imposter usurper generals, admirals, and
other merchants of death.
It is to this same internationally corrupt fixed venue, Atlanta,
that the Noriega re-hearing, without any constitutional reason in
fact or law, has been recently mysteriously assigned.
A gory irony to all of these machinations is that the chief
beneficiaries of an upcoming absent Boy Bill are the
principalities and powers behind Shalikashvilli, Lebed, Armand
Hammer and Sickle, Bob Strauss, and their chief anti-Christ
Communist asset in place, Al Gore.
Our Father in Heaven, to whom we prayed this Thanksgiving in
order to give thanks for our great nation, needs to hear our
continuing prayers until our nation is safe from *enemies* both
foreign and *DOMESTIC*.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
LOOSE THREADS
=============
You may not understand all this. *I* certainly don't. If you
are a newcomer to reading Conspiracy Nation (CN), you will
probably be even moreso in the dark. What follows are lines of
inquiry, "loose threads," in a developing story. For further
background, readers are referred to the CN archives at
ftp.shout.net in sub-directory pub/users/bigred and to Professor
J. Orlin Grabbe's archives. See especially the Grabbe material
available at http://www.shout.net/~bigred/cn.html
More background to this story will be provided soon in CN.
Loose Thread #1
---------------
On November 11, 1996, The Washington Weekly
(http://www.federal.com) published a story, based on a recently
declassified National Security Agency (NSA) document, "Vince
Foster Involved in NSA Computer Espionage Issues." It reports on
a May 1993 meeting involving Bernard Nussbaum, Vincent Foster,
Webster Hubbell, John Rogovin, and Supreme Court Justice John
Paul Stevens. The secret meeting was held at NSA headquarters.
The presence of Foster at the meeting, in which cryptology and
intelligence gathering were the topics, shows that Foster was on
the inside of top secret NSA intelligence discussions. Yet,
according to the article from the Washington Weekly, the White
House has tried to conceal Foster's ties to NSA.
Then, by November 18, 1996, The Washington Weekly had obtained
an additional 540 pages of documents from NSA in response to a
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. The information
showed that the U.S. Embassy in London had been highly interested
in stories, regarding the by now deceased Vince Foster, being
reported in British newspapers. The embassy was sending their
then-secret reports to, among several U.S. agencies, the National
Security Agency.
In "Plot to Spy on Banks Outlined in White House Email,"
Professor Grabbe includes a document declassified by the National
Archives on August 22, 1994. In that document, a memo from David
Wigg to Oliver North, North's connection to the tracking of
"financial flows... through the 400 or so principal banks that
make up the interbank market" is pointed to. In other words, a
plan to spy on banks was in the works.
Oliver North as moneyman is also shown in an article by Gene
Tatum, "A CIA Funding Operation." (See CN 9.93) In that report,
Tatum claims that "North delivered $4 billion in U.S. currency to
Iran. Iran gave North $8 billion in super bills in exchange for
the $4 billion in good U.S. currency. North then delivered the
$8 billion in super bills back to the Banco Nacional de Panama."
Loose Thread #2
---------------
In CN 9.90, I mentioned that I had been contacted by someone
who urged a prompt meeting at the Indiana border. This person
has been previously-mentioned in CN: "Mr. Boderby" (not his real
name.) Working to facilitate the meeting was "Mr. Royce" (not
his real name; see my interview of Joseph Andreuccetti, archived
at the prairienet site, for mention of "Mr. Royce," who dined
with myself, Sherman Skolnick, and Joseph Andreuccetti at a
restaurant in Calumet City, Illinois, in April of 1995. The
relevant material is accessed as follows: (a) telnet
prairienet.org (b) logon as "visitor" (c) "go citcom" (d) look in
the Whitewater sub-menu for "The Andreuccetti Affair.")
Loose Thread #3
---------------
This past week I received via U.S. mail a document, from "Mr.
Boderby," purporting to be an article written by J. Orlin Grabbe,
"The FBI Conspiracy Against Chuck Hayes." *If* Grabbe is the
actual author, the former Wharton professor is saying that "The
highest levels of the FBI are engaged in a conspiracy to obstruct
justice by denying Charles S. Hayes the right to legal
representation, by denying him the right to any discovery
materials, and by denying him the opportunity to prepare a
defense." Hayes is supposedly a deep-level former and/or current
intelligence operative who has been acting as a renegade, working
against government corruption and without the blessing of that
same government. Regardless of unsavoury connections, Hayes is
entitled to the same due process protections as any other
citizen. Or can the government now just deny due process to
whomever it wishes, then ameliorate the outrage by merely leaking
that, "It's O.K. This guy was with the CIA?"
In the document sent to me by "Boderby" and apparently written
by Grabbe, we learn that as of November 22, 1996, Chuck Hayes has
as his legal representative a man named Jim Vassilos. I can't
give the specifics of the connection, but Vassilos *is* connected
to "Mr. Boderby." Another loose thread is Vassilos's connection
to ex-NYPD Vice Squad Detective James Rothstein. In a videotape
of a lecture by Rothstein, he mentions that Vassilos accompanied
him on a trip he made to Oklahoma City with purpose of privately
investigating the April 19, 1995 bombings at the Murrah Building.
Loose Thread #4
---------------
In a conversation today (Jan. 5, 1997) with Sherman Skolnick,
the Chicago investigator voiced suspicion of alternative
journalists who suddenly "popped up from nowhere" around the time
of the Oklahoma City bombings. This was in response to my own
question as to Skolnick's assertion that the controversial
Hayes/Norman/Grabbe "Angel of Death" story is just a melodramatic
embellishment of Skolnick's previous material. Skolnick says he
has no private vendetta against either Grabbe, Norman, or Hayes,
but that their embellishment of his story is subtly misleading.
Regarding Mr. Norman, Skolnick thinks that he was a "babe in the
woods" in espionage matters when he was taken in by Hayes's
manipulation. Regarding Grabbe, Skolnick puts him in the
category of those who "popped up from nowhere" around the time of
the OKC bombings. Did Grabbe suddenly appear on Internet right
about that time? I don't recall.
Professor Grabbe will perhaps respond by hinting, as he has to
me in the past, that Skolnick is somehow connected to the Mossad.
Anticipating this reaction, I asked Mr. Skolnick how he would
respond to that. Skolnick pointed out that, just because he is a
traditional Jew, that doesn't necessarily mean he is involved
with the Mossad. He further pointed out that, in the past, he
has been a leading critic of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and
that as far back as 1970 he had identified ADL as a spy operation
with links to the FBI. For its part, according to Skolnick, ADL
contends that the Chicago underground journalist is a renegade
Jew out to damage Israel. ADL has even tried to block his
popular cable television program, says Skolnick. My own thinking
on this is that to label Mr. Skolnick as involved with the
Mossad, based only on the fact that he is Jewish, is something
unworthy of a keen intellect such as Grabbe's.
The "embellishment" of Skolnick's material is summarized by
him as follows. James Norman had been calling Skolnick from time
to time. Among Norman's questions were inquiries as to
Skolnick's "BCCI bribe list" story. Norman reportedly asked
Skolnick, in relation to his publication on Internet of the names
of 22 U.S. Senators allegedly involved, "You've got a story on
the BCCI bribe list with *22* names? Where are the other names?"
Skolnick says he had published an incomplete list of names as a
way to test Norman and others. Norman reportedly read some of
the remaining names. Skolnick's complete list of names *had*
been faxed to The Spotlight in 1991 but Spotlight did not publish
the actual list of names, just the general story itself. It
seems likely that part of the actual list found its way from
there into Norman's hands.
How is the Norman/Grabbe/Hayes "embellishment" of Skolnick's
story misleading? One thing said to be wrong is the assertion
that Hayes and the "Fifth Column" did not keep the appropriated
money for itself, but rather turned it over to a U.S. Treasury
holding account. In an interview I had with retired detective
Rothstein, he also expressed skepticism about that aspect of the
story. Mr. Skolnick's sources contend that no such money was
transferred to a Treasury holding account. But more
fundamentally, the story is partly wrong in that it diverts
attention from the Bank of England and from Cayman Islands
financial nuclei and focuses on Swiss banks. The BCCI bribe list
was reportedly accidentally made available to the public for 30
days (until the mistake of making the list public was rectified)
at the Bank of England. *This*, says Skolnick, is the real
story; that U.S. Congresspersons had been bought off by BCCI,
with many trails of that corruption leading to *London*. It is
widely known that BCCI *did* in fact spread its money around with
said purpose. The widespread retirements by U.S. Senators and
Representatives, with so many saying they have decided they want
to "spend more time with their families," may have been due to
pressure from news outlets knowledgeable about the said "BCCI
bribe list." It appears *that* possibility of imminent exposure
by news outlets, and not a masked "Lone Ranger" (Hayes) and his
helper "Tonto" (Norman), is the real cause of the recent wave of
retirements in Washington, D.C.
Mr. Skolnick says that persons wanting to subtly twist his
stories to their own purposes is not new to him. When he had
begun reporting his stories on Bill Clinton's trip to Moscow
during his student days, Skolnick perceived pressure from Media
Bypass Magazine to play up the angle of "Clinton is a communist."
However Skolnick would not do so, since his view has been that
Clinton's trip to Moscow was at the behest of the CIA.

("Quid coniuratio est?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES OF MEETINGS/CONVERSATIONS ON INSLAW & FOSTERGATE (10/21/95)
=================================================================
By "Mr. Mercedes" (Pseudonym)
-----------------------------
When James Norman wrote the Forbes 1/31/95 cover story, "Oil,
Guns & Greed" where he had worked for five years and was a Senior
Editor at a $100,000 year salary. The focus of this cover story
was Carlos Cardoen, a Chilean arms merchant who sold hundreds of
millions of dollars worth of cluster bombs and other weapons to
Iraq, while using Chase Manhattan Bank to finance his operation
through "set up" oil trades and with the full cooperation and
knowledge of DCI [Director of Central Intelligence] Bill Gates.
He probably had no idea where it would lead and that 6 months
later he would be abruptly fired on 8/16 and less than a week
after I told him in person that he should expect to be fired
quite soon because of what he had written outside of Forbes and
because of what he was continuing to investigate.
The Cardoen story led Norman to Harry Wechsler, Pres. of Boston
Systematics and, purportedly, a former CIA and/or Mossad agent
who has also been selling Inslaw's bootlegged and bugged enhanced
PROMIS software around the world. Wechsler was also a key person
involved in pulling off the October Surprise for the Israelis,
according to Lt. Commander Alexander Martin (Ret.), who was
involved in many 1980s covert ops as an aide to General Richard
Secord (Ret.), and is now assisting with the investigations of
the House Whitewater Committee. Wechsler's daughter, Dana, has
been a senior editor at Forbes for 6-7 years, a CIA contract
employee, and both have been sources for James Norman. The big
question is, did they feed Norman disinformation to direct him
away from Wechsler's key role in the illegal sale of PROMIS from
his subsidiary company, Israeli Systematics.
This article led Norman into [investigating] government software
theft and espionage, covert activities of computerized money
laundering and drugs and arms dealing, interweaving a cast of
characters, government agencies and companies which include:
Inslaw, the CIA, NSA, Mossad, Vince Foster, Webster Hubbell,
Robert Maxwell, Arkansas billionaire Jackson Stephens,
Systematics (Jackson Stephens-owned company and now merged into
Alltel with Stephen's 8 percent interest), numerous secret Swiss
bank accounts, which lead right up to and included Bill and
Hillary Clinton, and former Presidents Reagan and Bush, all sown
together with a thread called PROMIS (Prosecutor's Management
Information Systems) software.
The intent of this report is to present evidence and leads,
without pre-conceived notions or hidden agendas, which should be
objectively investigated and reported by unbiased journalists in
order to honestly verify or refute the information of James
Norman and others. This document doesn't presume to be the final
word, but it is an attempt to lay out possible evidence and
people within the Clinton administration, Park Police, Department
of Justice, [which] Kenneth Starr's investigations and the Senate
and House Whitewater/Foster hearings should be investigating.
One of the most invisible and invincible central figures in this
cast is Jackson Stephens. He has been a major contributor to
Bush, loaned the Clinton Election Committee a critical $2 million
from his family's Worthen Bank (Stephens recently had it
purchased by the larger Boatsman Bank of St. Louis, thus ending a
Federal Reserve investigation), and is now, of all things, the
Finance Chairman for Bob Dole. Stephens is an investor in or
owner of numerous companies such as Beverly Enterprises (a major
national nursing home chain and one of Earl Brian's numerous
companies; Earl Brian, another central figure, will be described
later), and two Arkansas newspapers, the Northwest Arkansas Times
and the Morning News of Northwest Arkansas. He was also the
original front man for BCCI in the late 1970s when he tried to
get them (M. Potts, N. Kochan & R. Whittington, "Dirty Money:
The Inside Story of BCCI" and John Beaty "Outlaw Bank: BCCI")
into the U.S. through the purchase of First American (Wall Street
Journal article, 8/7/95, "Who is Dan Lasater," Wall Street
Journal 2-page profile article, ?/?/93, and Monetary & Economic
Review 6/92 article, "Clinton Selected to be Next President"),
prior to Clark Clifford and Roger Altman getting involved through
First American Bank.
Despite Mike Wallace's "60 Minutes" 10/18 shoddy and slanted
hatch-job report on journalist Christopher Ruddy and Lisa
Foster's New Yorker 9/11/95 "conspiracy rebuttal" article, a big
mystery still remains as to whether or not all or some of these
elements and inter-related people came together to cause the
death of Vince Foster. As Chicago investigative reporter Sherman
Skolnick states, Lisa Foster's "cover-up" story should be
seriously questioned. In his 9/11/95 "The Money Trail" release,
Skolnick reports that Lisa Foster received $285,000 just 4 days
prior to Vince Foster's death from bank heir Richard Mellon
Scaife, who passed it through Sheila Foster Anthony (Vince
Foster's sister and former Congressman Beryl Anthony's wife).
Furthermore, it just so happens that Sheila Foster Anthony is in
a very important Department of Justice section which is involved
in appointments of Federal Judges, U.S. Attorneys, and U.S.
Marshalls. Also, Richard Mellon Scaife is facing possible
prosecution on alleged federal banking regulations violations
(Sarah McClendon's Washington Report, 9/5/95).
Additionally, when Lisa Foster was questioned by the FBI on
5/1/94, she raised doubts about Vince Foster's so-called "suicide
note." She stated that Vince Foster had written it on or about
7/11/93 and they were his talking points for a scheduled meeting
on 7/22/93 with the President and an upcoming Congressional
hearing, neither of which Vince Foster kept since he was already
conveniently dead on 7/20. Additionally that so-called last
"relaxation weekend" at major Clinton and Democratic fundraiser
Nathan Landau's shore estate with Webster Hubbell and others was
a "damage control" session, bugged by the CIA, for the impending
scandal described below in which Vince Foster was under
investigation for espionage.
Besides all the forensic and crime scene discrepancies and the
apparent "cover-up" by the White House personnel's inappropriate
actions after Foster's death, there was a significant discrepancy
with the gun Vince Foster supposedly shot himself with and the
"silver colored gun" which Lisa Foster also told the FBI that
Vince had brought with him from Arkansas. (Mike Blair's "Foster
Gun, Note Questions" Spotlight 8/21/95). If Vince Foster was
shot with the "silver colored gun" which was found in the park
near his body, why did Lisa Foster find another gun in its place
on the very night after his death? And finally, in addition to
all the other mysterious evidence found on or around his body,
why did ballistics and forensics experts find that Vince Foster
was shot by a turn-of-the-century Colt .38 caliber Army revolver?
James Norman completed his Vince Foster story for Forbes in April
of 1995 and it was ready for publication in the May issue, after
being thoroughly checked and edited, but [it] was pulled after
receiving an April 25 letter from the White House Press
Secretary, Michael McCurry. Norman was then given permission to
have his article published by another magazine (Media Bypass
Magazine, 8/95, "Fostergate") if he withheld his Forbes
affiliation. He has just come out with a followup article,
"Fostergate II" in the 10/95 [Media Bypass] issue. Norman claims
he was fired for continuing to investigate the Vince Foster
story, which led back to Forbes' Chairman Emeritus and former
Secretary of Defense, Caspar Weinberger. Forbes' media relations
person, Ray Healy, claimed that "James Norman resigned and that
he was a good journalist and they would miss him," but because of
their editorial policy he would not comment on anything written
outside of Forbes.
In the process of investigating the Vince Foster story, Norman
came into contact with Charles "Chuck" Hayes, purportedly a
former CIA agent with S1 clearance (highest level) with a
codename of "Running Fox." In my interview with him, he claims
to have been involved in the CIA's Cuba covert ops to run weapons
into Castro to overthrow Pres. Batista. Hayes stated that he
knew George Bush as the CIA's paymaster as far back as 1958, all
of which he [Bush] denies (see [J. Edgar] Hoover 1963 letter
which refers to Bush of CIA). On one occasion, he [Hayes] claims
to have put a gun into Bush's mouth in order to get him to pay
up. [CN: Bush reportedly leaked in his pants at that point.]
While serving in Vietnam in covert ops, Hayes disobeyed orders
and flew his jet fighter into Hanoi and took out a SAM missile
storage depot. On a Mena, Arkansas arms flight to the Contras,
he discovered coke [cocaine] stored in the belly of his plane and
dumped it on the awaiting covert team at the airport while
avoiding being shot down by them.

NOTES OF MEETINGS/CONVERSATIONS ON INSLAW & FOSTERGATE (10/21/95)
=================================================================

[...continued...]
Recently, he [Chuck Hayes] settled a suit with the Government
over buying used government computers with sensitive software
(maybe even PROMIS), wherein they paid him around $200,000 just
to keep him quiet. Supposedly, Chuck Hayes was one of the
founders of the CIA's Division D which developed and used new
spying techniques of electronic bugging for the last 15 years.
He is also supposed to be part of this group of contractors for
the CIA called the Fifth Column. Back in August '95, Hayes also
assisted the Meadows family by investigating their claim against
the Mellon bank and coming up with internal bank documents which
were presented in a Pittsburgh court. Several Internet J. Orlin
Grabbe reports over the last few months appear to have a lot of
input from Chuck Hayes, especially Part 28 ["NSA, Banks and
Foster," see http://www.shout.net/~bigred/cn.html for details] on
our missile defense network and the latest one from 10/15, Part
29, which describes much of the money laundering activities and
covert ops of the 1980s. I'm sure the Intelligence Agencies,
Pentagon, Congress and the Clinton Administration are eagerly
awaiting -- not! -- the next amazing revelations in Part 30, 31,
32, etc., that is if Chuck Hayes isn't "taken out" first for just
one too many revelations.
Other sources for James Norman's story and/or this report
include: Jimmy Rothstein (the subject of former Daily
News/Village Voice reporter Bill Sherman's book, "Times Square,"
recounting his years as a former NYPD Vice cop who was forced to
retire because he got too close to the "big boys" and has
assisted with the U.S. Customs' Inslaw investigation), Cheri
Seymour (author and investigative journalist; Spotlight 4-part
series 3/3/95), and Michael Riconosciuto (recruited into CIA
after graduating from Stanford University at the age of 17 and
involved in numerous CIA ops, including arms dealing operations
with Iran and a meth amphetamine lab on the Cabazon Indian
Reservation in Yuma, Arizona, and now serving 32 years in Fed.
Prison on a "set up" drug bust.)
Many government officials and journalists have attempted and
mostly succeeded in their campaign to wrongfully discredit
Riconosciuto as they have done with so many other important
witnesses, either for ulterior motives or because they never
bothered to check him out personally and just relied on other
people's rumors and written dis- or misinformation. Jimmy
Rothstein and Cheri Seymour are the only people to personally
investigate and confirm Riconosciuto's involvement in numerous
CIA covert ops at Yuma Proving Grounds, in Lebanon and elsewhere
around the world. Rothstein discovered that Riconosciuto and
associates were arrested near Yuma by a highway patrolman for
having a Stinger missile in their car for which then-Attorney
General Edward Meese had to personally call to get them released
and arrest record destroyed. (James Rothstein letter to Brooks
Committee which never brought out this information in the Inslaw
hearings)
Additional sources also include: John Belton (Canadian
businessman whose company he worked for was ripped off for $50
million by Earl Brian (author of 5-page report in Elliot
Richardson's addendum rebuttal to Bua's report), Miguel Rodriguez
(former Kenneth Starr investigator who resigned under protest and
claimed there was a cover-up), Ari Ben-Menashe (Israeli involved
in October Surprise), Richard Babayan (Iranian involved in
October Surprise), Bob Bickel (undercover Customs investigator in
the 1980s), Gene Wheaton (former investigator with Special
Prosecutor Walsh on Iran-Contra, investigator for families on
Gander plane crash), Juval Aviv (former Mossad agent, head of his
own Private Investigating firm, Interfor, consultant on terrorism
to "60 Minutes" and ABC News who has been hit with a U.S.
government "harassment" criminal perjury action on his claim that
rogue CIA agents caused the Pan Am Flight 103 crash), as well as
a number of unnamed sources within the government, intelligence
community, computer experts, and other investigative journalists,
such as Sherman Skolnick (newsletters "Secret Report Links Foster
to Pollard" and "The Money Trail"), Virginia McCullough (sued by
Chief of Cabazon Indians for libel over her statements about
CIA's covert ops on Reservation, but was paid off to "shut up"),
and Danny Casolaro (died under mysterious circumstances while
working on his book "The Octopus" about Inslaw and former Dept.
of Justice Attorney Mike Abbel, but whose extensive notes speak
to us from beyond the grave).
Purportedly, under this CIA/NSA group of "Division D," the
government has been illegally mass producing software from
various companies like Microsoft. The government antitrust suit
against Microsoft is a pressure tactic against Microsoft in an
attempt to counteract claims for non-payment on massive amounts
of bugged and bootlegged software. When Martin Marrieta
purchased GE Aerospace, the CIA operation was moved to another
one of their facilities. It has been reported that $8
billion/year in pirated software is sold around the world out of
a total $17 billion/year (New York Times 8/24/95, Financial Times
of London 8/19/95, and the New York Post 8/22/95).
This computer operation is in addition to the CIA's purported
ongoing and extensive operations of smuggling and selling drugs
and arms, which help to fund other covert ops through these
illegal activities. Some of these CIA ops include: Air
America's Viet Nam smuggling (Jonathan Kwitney's "Crimes of
Patriots" and Bo Gritz's "Nation Betrayed" video and book about
Golden Triangle war lord Khun Sa and Richard Armitage), Columbian
Cartel/Iran-Contras/Mena airport smuggling, and Lebanon's Baca
Valley heroin smuggling, which may have been the real reason for
the Pan Am 103 crash (Joel Bainerman's, "The Crimes of a
President: Conspiracy and Cover-up in Bush and Reagan
Administration," Lester Coleman's, "On the Trail of the Octopus,"
and BBC-aired documentary, "The Maltese Double Cross"), also Iraq
(Alan Friedman's "Spider's Web"), Iran, Afghanistan, El Salvador
and Nicaraguan, etc., secret arms sales ops are more dangerous,
not to mention the enormous human suffering and deaths they have
caused.
Keep in mind that there have been numerous movies ("Air
America"), books (T. Ross and D. Wise's 1964 book, "The Invisible
Government" and John Prados "Presidents Secret Wars: CIA and
Pentagon Covert Ops") and articles (Wall Street Journal, Covert
Action Quarterly, Penthouse, and Spotlight) by or about former
CIA agents and military involved in these illegal Agency-approved
operations. Some of these include the Nugan Hand Bank (Penny
Lernoux's Penthouse article and book, "Blood Money,") Oliver
North, former-Director of Central Intelligence Bill Casey, former
CIA agent Ted Shackley ("Blonde Ghost" by David Korn), Gary
Sick's "October Surprise," Bob Parry's "Trick or Treason," Ari
Ben-Menashe's "Profits of War," Rodney Stich's "Defrauding
America," and former Houston Post reporter Pete Brewton's "The
Mafia, the CIA, and George Bush," Peter Dale Scott's "War
Conspiracy" and "Cocaine Politics," Linda Hunt's "Secret Agenda,"
and former DEA agents Celerino Castillo's "Powder Burns" and
Michael Levine's "The Big White Lie," CIA agent and arms dealer

Merchant,") DEA informant and drug and arms smuggler Barry Seal

NOTES OF MEETINGS/CONVERSATIONS ON INSLAW & FOSTERGATE (10/21/95)
=================================================================
By "Mr. Mercedes" (Pseudonym)
-----------------------------
[...continued...]
By the way, the Washington Post supposedly paid many thousands of
dollars to Roger Morris and Sally Denton for their story on Mena,
but after 11 weeks of delays they pulled it because they felt
they were getting jacked around and got Bob Guccione to publish
it in Penthouse 7/95. Also, Terry Reed has a book coming out on
Barry Seal/Mena, Arkansas. Another book project now underway is
the story of the CIA's drug op in New York with NYPD cop and
"made man" "Big Al" Carone, former Colonel in Army Intel. Carone
was the "bagman" for NYPD, friend of DCI Bill Casey, and "banker"
for the CIA's drugs op from 1946-80 (died of "CIA flu"), along
with other "bagmen" associates, Russell Herman (also died of "CIA
flu") and "fixer/briber" Al Hobert and NYPD "dirty" cop Gene
Howard who were all "on the take."
Two more CIA drug smuggling ops reports were broadcast on TV.
One program was done by Mike Wallace of "60 Minutes" which
re-broadcast his 2-year-old report on 9/3/95 about a Venezuelan
Cartel/CIA supposed cocaine smuggling sting operation.
Unfortunately, this CIA op allowed many millions of dollars of
powder to hit the streets of America, without ever busting
anyone. The other one was a British TV Ch. 4 broadcast of the
suppressed "The Maltese Doublecross" documentary on Pan Am 103's
heroin smuggling operation which presented witnesses and evidence
which showed that this may very well have been the real reason
for the bomb explosion which killed all passengers on board.
As for the CIA/NSA computer operation, it would appear that it is
relatively new and extremely lucrative. Estimates of just how
profitable this operation is range into the hundreds of millions
of dollars, which goes to funding "off the books" Black Ops, now
that Congress, with only a slightly higher degree of scrutiny,
has cut back on their funding.
James Norman, Bill Hamilton and many others state that in the
early 1980s the government expropriated Inslaw's revolutionary
and proprietary PROMIS software after Bill Hamilton had created
an advanced version of PROMIS which was originally developed
while he was at the NSA. It was based on computer aided software
engineering technologies which used software to create and modify
software, thus enabling PROMIS to be modified to a multitude of
applications because of its inherent versatility and
adaptability. The government realized its numerous applications
such as applying it to the secret purpose of tracking down
terrorist money in international banking.
The CIA, with operatives such as Oliver North and Ted Shackley,
purportedly used this very "adaptable" PROMIS to create secret
bank accounts through "computerized money laundering" for the
purpose of financing CIA covert ops, such as Iran-Contra and
Iraqgate. This led to another application, wherein the NSA/CIA
used it to create a compromised universal banking system which
could be secretly accessed by their bugged software, sold by NSA
"front companies" to unsuspecting banks, which allowed them
[NSA/CIA] to access secret accounts anywhere around the world.
Additionally, specially designed NSA chips have been placed in
computers, along with Inslaw's stolen PROMIS Plus, which are then
sold through these NSA "front companies," such as Systematics,
Boston Systematics, Hadron and Israeli Systematics and agents,
such as Robert Maxwell, to strategic and highly sensitive ally
and enemy customers alike. (Related articles and info: Time
8/19/95 "Onward Cyber Soldier," New York Times 8/19 "Citibank
Fraud Case Raises Computer Questions," Wall Street Journal's and
Wang Laboratories' John A. Dean 3/3/95 letter to DCI John
Woolsley.)
Purportedly, these bugged computers are set up to transmit their
sensitive information within by data bursts up to low-flying NSA
satellites. Inslaw and their Atlanta law firm, with the
assistance of attorney Eliott Richardson (Pres. Nixon's former
Attorney General who resigned in protest over Watergate), are
preparing to go back into the Court of Federal Claims in December
'95 after a more than 10-year battle to seek a multi-hundred
million dollar judgement for non-payment of royalties. A number
of knowledgeable people state that if PROMIS's advanced software
was stolen and used since the early 1980s for numerous
applications such as in our nuclear subs and nuclear missile
defense system, Inslaw should be owed in excess of half a billion
dollars.
Some politicians and journalists privately, with only a few
publicly, have supported Inslaw's position that the government
stole their PROMIS software, but almost all have been unwilling
to really investigate and go public with the real facts. Seymour
Hersh, one of a few to attempt to get the whole Inslaw story out,
recently researched and proposed an article for the New York
Times Magazine, Vanity Fair, and Atlantic Monthly, but
unfortunately they all passed.
Even a House investigation and retired Federal Judge Nicholas J.
Bua's grand jury 1993 investigation in Chicago didn't get to the
bottom of this government scandal, possibly because of the
magnitude of the situation. Attorney General Barr appointed Bua
as a Special Counsel, but he was really a "dependent counsel."
Even though Chuck Hayes, who secured many of the witnesses (such
as Ari Ben-Menashe) did testify, Michael Riconosciuto along with
many [other] witnesses didn't in person or at all. The Judge was
sued for not conducting a proper investigation by Chicago
investigative journalist Sherman Skolnick and Michael
Riconosciuto. Bua submitted a "whitewashed" report to Attorney
General Reno, who turned it over to the White House who did
nothing... except send Inslaw information in a secure envelope to
Vince Foster shortly before his death.
Debra Gorham, former secretary to Vince Foster and William
Kennedy, her prior boss, secretly testified before Senate
Whitewater Committee on 6/23/95. In addition to Webster Hubbell,
William Kennedy was another Rose Law Firm partner who resigned at
the White House under a scandal and, also as Jackson Stephen's
attorney in 1984, he filed incomplete information with the
Federal Reserve about Stephens's family holding in Worthen Bank
(New York Times 5/9/95 "Fed Ends Inquiry Into an Arkansas
Family").
In her confidential testimony, Debra Gorham disclosed a key point
wherein she stated that Vince Foster gave her two NSA 1-inch
ringed binders (Ambrose Evans-Pritchard's London Sunday Telegraph
8/6 article and Debra Gorham's excerpted confidential
transcripts) which she put in Bernard Nussbaum's safe. Debra
Gorham described one binder as blue; it may well have been our
nuclear missile launch codes which control the entire U.S.
missile defense system -- the ultimate power. These codes access
any missile and can launch it wherever programmed.
Also, at a later public Whitewater Senate hearing on 8/1/95,
Senator Faircloth's aide confirmed that Debra Gorham was
instructed by her counsel to say, "I do not recall," when he
passed a hurriedly written note before her to respond to the
Senator's question, "Did Foster ever get any documents on
Systematics or Inslaw?" In direct contradiction to her sworn
testimony, through a confidential friend, Gorham admitted
receiving and even reading some of a secure letter on Inslaw from
Webster Hubbell. Although it might be hard to prove, since she
only admitted through her friend that she was familiar with
Inslaw from the previous Washington, D.C. law firm employer,
there can be no doubt that Gorham lied to Congress about not
receiving a letter on Inslaw.
Chuck Hayes and other highly placed confidential sources have
stated that Vince Foster, as a NSA secret operative since the
late '70s and a partner at Rose Law Firm, worked on secret and
clandestine matters at Systematics (owned by Jackson Stephens).
Larry Nichols, a former Arkansas friend of Clinton's, has stated
that a Systematics employee, who is afraid of being fired,
confirmed to him that Foster came in shortly before his death,
flashing NSA credentials, and demanded that this person run a
secret program for him, which he did. After Foster's death, this
same Systematics employee asked Larry Nichols if anything he did
for Vince Foster could have been a reason for his death. In a
significant development, Rep. Leach, Chairman of the Whitewater
hearings, may be prepared to subpoena this person and therefore
force him to testify when the hearings commence around the end of
September, but don't count on him being called or showing up.

NOTES OF MEETINGS/CONVERSATIONS ON INSLAW & FOSTERGATE (10/21/95)
=================================================================
By "Mr. Mercedes" (Pseudonym)

[...continued...]
[CN: The rest of this essay, as typed by CN, omits portions of
the original which seemed redundant. Also, the claims made by
"Mr. Mercedes" are his own; much of what he says is beyond my own
knowledge. Be assured, however, that I have spoken with "Mr.
Mercedes" many times and that he is not a dilettante in these
matters.]
In addition to acting as an NSA agent, James Norman stated that
Vince Foster was also selling NSA and other high-level U.S.
government and military secrets to Israel's Mossad with the
assistance of another former Rose Law Firm partner, Hillary
Clinton (she was the attorney of record for none other than
Systematics once in 1978 and later in (1981 or 82?))
James Norman stated that Dee Dee Myers, former White House Press
Secretary, reportedly set up Foster by getting him out of the
White House where he was killed in a not very professional and
hurriedly arranged mafia-style hit, made to look like a suicide.
Her recent drunk driving arrest was a cover for an intense CIA
interrogation about her involvement in Foster's death.
In a completely different, but interrelated vein of the
Inslaw/PROMIS situation, CNN broadcast an excerpt of a
one-and-a-half hour taped interview on 12/12/91 with Canadian
John Belton who described how former California Gov. Reagan's
Secretary of Health, Financial News Network founder/former owner
and secret intelligence operative, Earl W. Brian, was involved in
funding October Surprise. Additionally, Belton told CNN just how
Earl Brian defrauded Nesbitt Thompson, the Canadian investment
company where Belton worked, of $50 million through stock
manipulation of Brian's public companies. Despite the
significance of Belton's CNN interview, which aired worldwide and
even with front page coverage in Canadian newspapers, there's
been no coverage in the U.S.
James Norman stated that Caspar Weinberger, Forbes' Chairman
Emeritus, has also been implicated [by Chuck Hayes checking] out
encrypted code number found by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in Barry
Seal's car trunk after he was murdered by Colombian hitmen when
DOJ/DEA hung him out to dry. Evans-Pritchard gave Norman the
number, who in turn had Hayes run it and see who and what he
could come up with. Hayes found that the number turned out to be
a secret Swiss bank account for Caspar Weinberger through which
he pulled out several million dollars.
Some sources even believe it was possible that the whole
NSA/Foster operation was a policy decision under Reagan/Bush to
pay back Israel for their help with Iraq by providing them with
our nuclear missile defense system. It is unknown if Caspar
Weinberger had applied any pressure to kill Norman's story at
Forbes, but he certainly feels that his continuing investigation
into Weinberger's involvement in the "Fostergate" story was the
real reason for his being fired.
Other journalists who were fired for writing or attempting to
write stories on Vince Foster/Inslaw include Christopher Ruddy
formerly at New York Post (1/27/94 article, "Doubts Raised Over
Foster's Suicide," and 2/10/94 article, "Fumbling Feds Change
Story on Foster's 'Suicide'" and Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
9/20/95 "Police Failed to Find Keys to Foster's Car at Park" and
9/26/95 "Clinton Security Chief's Murder Still Unsolved") and
Tony Kimery (Media Bypass 9/95, "Penetration: Fostergate II"
follow-up to Norman's 8/95 article and upcoming 10/2/95 Insight
Magazine article on the NSA's Fin-CEN, Financial Crimes
Enforcement Network) at a Washington, D.C. wire service.
Since Presidential hopeful Bob Dole is reported to have Jackson
Stephens as his Campaign Finance Chairman, even if he doesn't
have a secret Swiss bank account like many of his Congressional
colleagues, the damage to his campaign could be terminal if and
when this scandal breaks and he is linked with one of the central
figures with [Stephens'] Systematics company.
Quite possibly, since many are involved in both parties and
independent counsel Ken Starr appears to have been involved in
some way, early on in the Inslaw matter, recusing himself as
Solicitor General, nothing about this Vince Foster scandal may
ever come out in either the House or Senate Whitewater hearings
or Starr's investigation and final report if they all can help
keep it buried with Vince Foster, especially if there is no
serious media scrutiny and reporting.
If nothing is done we can almost certainly expect a huge
"blowback" as described by Robert Friedman (New Yorker Magazine
3/17/95, "The CIA's Jihad"), a term which describes how the CIA's
covert ops many times wind up causing more problems than their
ops are worth. One of these CIA "blowbacks" presumably resulted
in the bombing of the World Trade Center after the CIA trained,
armed, and financed Arab terrorists and Afghan rebels to fight
our former enemy, the Russian occupying army.
Hopefully though, sooner or later serious journalists will decide
to truly investigate this story; only then will "Fostergate" and
Inslaw be prime time news, despite all the efforts of government
officials, business leaders, and major media, to avoid, suppress
and/or write dis- or misinformation on this blockbuster story.
Who knows, maybe Safire had a point when he wrote, "Sometimes
conspiracy theories uncover conspiracy." But poet Robert Frost
really said it best: "...But I have PROMISes to keep, and miles
to go before I sleep."

("Quid coniuratio est?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
STRANGE HAYES CASE GETS STRANGER
================================
Are Myers and Hayes "Tweedledum" and "Tweedledee?"
--------------------------------------------------
Writes Lawrence W. Myers in the September 1996 issue of Media
Bypass Magazine:
[Charles] Hayes and a small cell of experienced retired CIA
computer hackers, commonly known as "the Fifth Column,"
have effectively disrupted the international financial
markets, derailed a number of promising corporate careers,
and in many ways, altered the American political
landscape... it was Hayes who provided James Norman with
the details of money laundering and secret Swiss bank
accounts tied to key government officials...
Later, Hayes reportedly went so far as to somehow screw up
payment of FBI Director Louis Freeh's paycheck. Was that the
last straw? Did Freeh vow revenge?
The FBI is connected with the current case of Charles "Chuck"
Hayes, which case is now performing strange gyrations in the area
of London, Kentucky. According to Gail Gibson of the
"South-Central Kentucky Bureau" ("Bureau" of what?), "Prosecutors
charge that Hayes, 61, arranged to pay an undercover FBI agent
$5,000 to kill his son... The two men are involved in a bitter
legal fight over the estate of Chuck Hayes' mother." But wasn't
it $100, and not $5,000, that was supposedly paid?
J. Orlin Grabbe (http://www.aci.net/kalliste/), in "Judge
Jennifer B. Coffman's Kangaroo Court," notes that Hayes had
"begun to name names under oath." But was Hayes cross-examined?
Sherman Skolnick suggests that by Hayes speaking under oath,
whatever he has said can now be publicized as "true." Skolnick
told this editor in a phone conversation (1/17/97) that he has a
pipeline into the developing legal situation in Kentucky and
suspects a "tremendous deception" by Hayes and Myers.
Yet, as noted in CN 9.94, Grabbe in the past has hinted to this
editor that Skolnick is somehow connected to Mossad. But wait a
minute: "Mr. Boderby" (CN 9.59; ftp.shout.net in sub-directory
pub/users/bigred/vol9) hinted that Lawrence W. Myers was with
Mossad. Are Myers and Skolnick *both* with Mossad, and working
against Hayes?
Yet Myers is revealed in the Gail Gibson article from the
"South-Central Kentucky Bureau" as having been "the free-lance
writer who told the FBI that Hayes wanted Hayes' son killed." It
appears that Myers is a rat. If Myers and Skolnick were both
connected with Mossad, why would Skolnick have repeatedly warned
about Myers? As far back as June of 1996 (CN 8.18), Skolnick was
saying, "On the day of the Oklahoma bombings... Thomas [of Media
Bypass Magazine] hired a person using the name Lawrence W. Myers
(is that person really linked to that name? Is his background
what he says it is?)"
This raises an interesting question: Is "Myers" really Myers?
In CN 8.50 (circa 7/17/96), Skolnick further warned that, "As far
as Chuck Hayes: he alleges that he retired from the CIA. But
since he has condemned me as a 'nut,' when my stories about
Foster and Whitewater were broader and more comprehensive, I have
to assume that Hayes is still with CIA. And since I believe that
Lawrence W. Myers reportedly still is a government
counter-intelligence agent, and now has joined forces with Hayes,
I have to assume that the story instigated by Hayes -- the 'Angel
of Death' thing -- is a melodramatic, watered-down version of my
original story."
Regarding Hayes having called Skolnick a "nut," here is the
relevant excerpt from Myers' interview of Hayes published in the
August 1996 Media Bypass Magazine:
HAYES: This group, Accuracy in Media [AIM], has been
attacking the Fostergate story for more than a year. You
know, it's a funny thing about these folks over at AIM.
Everyone in the intelligence community knows these people
are mouthpieces for the Mossad. When people as ludicrous
as Scott Wheeler get hired to write hit pieces on people,
no one takes them seriously.
He is nothing. It's not even worth my time to even discuss
this individual. I do not take time to respond to claims
by Scott Wheeler, Sherman Skolnick and a bunch of other
nuts trying to make a living with half-baked
disinformation.
A key statement by Skolnick, as noted above, from CN 8.50, and
published in July of 1996, is "I believe Lawrence W. Myers... has
joined forces with Hayes." According to Skolnick, Myers had
spoken with him and promised that if he were to "behave," Myers
would have pulled strings to get Skolnick his own radio show.
Skolnick suspects that Myers somehow strong-armed The Spotlight
newspaper into not publishing a story by Skolnick when Skolnick
refused to go along with Myers' alleged deal. Currently,
Skolnick "strongly suspects a game," with Myers and Hayes doing a
Tweedledee/Tweedledum routine for some purpose. As to Hayes'
circus of a trial, Skolnick believes "the whole thing is a sham."
Not so, according to "Mr. Mercedes" (pseudonym), with whom I also
spoke this evening. Myers, according to "Mr. Mercedes," is *not*
affiliated with Hayes. Close to those inside the developing
Hayes case, "Mercedes" is of the opinion that Hayes was setting
up the FBI for a sting and used Myers for that purpose. Says
this east coast source, "Chuck was testing Myers, almost like
Judas and Jesus Christ," (but adds that this is only an allegory,
that Hayes is definitely no angel.) "Without Judas, where would
Christ have been? Without Myers, Hayes could not work the
sting." Hayes presumably hoped to benefit from the maneuver by
thereby having access to legal discovery procedures. But things
didn't turn out as Hayes had planned, observes "Mercedes," with
the undercover agent arrested for solicitation of murder.
Instead, Hayes himself wound up in the slammer.
Or, along a different line, "Mercedes" theorizes the whole Hayes
in jail fiasco may have been arranged by Clinton et al. to remove
heat from Hayes and his "Fifth Column" until after the November
election. In one thing both "Mercedes" and Skolnick agree: the
prosecutor, in the trenches and actually bringing the case
forward, does not have a clue as to higher subtleties involved in
the case. Increasingly, the whole case is turning into a
Keystone Cops episode and, if Judge Wapner of "The Peoples Court"
were presiding, it would have long since been thrown out. "The
longer the Department of Justice continues, the worse it will get
for them," predicts "Mr. Mercedes."
Of interest in the Myers/Hayes, Tweedledum/Tweedledee theory is a
reported statement made by Myers: "I know who is running the
court. Hayes sits there like a cheshire cat, with a big grin on
his face."

THE HEIDELBERG - DeCAMP - GUNDERSON - MYERS CONNECTION
======================================================
Did Lawrence Myers Play a Role in Hoppy Heidelberg's Dismissal?
---------------------------------------------------------------
In CN 10.05 ("Strange Hayes Case Gets Stranger") I wondered just
what the "South-Central Kentucky Bureau" was. A reader was nice
enough to inform me that it is the South-Central Kentucky Bureau
of the Lexington Herald-Leader. You'll recall that I wrote that,
"According to Gail Gibson of the South-Central Kentucky Bureau,
'Prosecutors charge that Hayes, 61, arranged to pay an undercover
FBI agent $5,000 to kill his son... The two men are involved in
a bitter legal fight over the estate of Chuck Hayes' mother.'" I
was informed that Gail Gibson has written at least 3 articles on
the Hayes trial, temporarily available at no cost at the
Herald-Leader's web site:
http://www.kentuckyconnect.com/heraldleader/index.htm
I was in time and pulled up those other articles written by
Gibson (with help from colleagues), from the Herald-Leader web
site. They provide a good summary of the Hayes case, useful to
any readers unacquainted with the details. For further
background, read articles written by J. Orlin Grabbe, especially
the series "Allegations Regarding Vince Foster, the NSA, and
Banking Transactions," available at http://www.aci.net/kalliste/
and at http://www.shout.net/~bigred/cn.html
The gist of the story (which may astound any new readers) is that
Charles "Chuck" Hayes, a former CIA agent fed up with rampant
government corruption, began a personal crusade to clean things
up. He, with the help of knowledgeable friends, used a secret
computer "back door" to enable them to "hack" their way into
secret computer accounts. Many of the computers allegedly hacked
into belonged to Swiss banks. From the secret information they
obtained, Hayes and his "Fifth Column" of like-minded crusaders
gained leverage to use against corrupt government officials.
"Leave office by sundown, or else we'll blab what we know," this
Fifth Column presumably warned Congress-persons, bureaucrats,
and others. Besides their inside evidence of individual
corruption, Hayes and friends, via their back-door access to bank
accounts, reportedly were able to withdraw the bribe money stored
there by politicians and other powerful persons.
Did Hayes' actions cause a counter-attack by forces aligned with
the U.S. government? I spoke with a source who prefers to remain
anonymous, a man with years of investigative experience, who
believes that that *is* what the Hayes case is about. According
to this source, the Hayes case is a more or less straightforward
example of government retaliation against people who have somehow
annoyed them. Reportedly, vicious elements within the U.S.
government prefer if possible to discredit their enemies rather
than simply murder them. Elimination of witnesses by murder can
have messy complications, so these elements prefer to set people
up on false charges so as to discredit them and/or remove them
from the picture. This editor is familiar with such tactics
apparently being routinely used, such as in the case of Terry
Reed, where Reed had false charges brought against him so as to
impugn his testimony.
Further key information on the Hayes case is provided by Gail
Gibson, in her series of articles from the Lexington
Herald-Leader. An affidavit by FBI agent David Keller claims
that Hayes had agreed to pay $5,000 to have his son murdered, but
had only actually paid $100. This Agent Keller, according to J.
Orlin Grabbe, may have been a former member of The Outlaws
motorcycle gang who has both used and sold heroin while at the
same time informing on other gang members. Dr. Grabbe bases this
claim on information obtained by investigators working on behalf
of the defendant.
Gibson also reports that there are supposed to exist taped
conversations between Hayes and Keller which will help shed light
on what happened. Allegedly, Hayes can be heard to ask Keller
what his FBI number is, according to Gatewood Galbraith, attorney
for Hayes. If it can be shown that Hayes was perfectly aware of
Keller's being an FBI agent, this raises the question: Why on
earth would Hayes have contracted his son's murder with a known
FBI agent? I am told that, by order of presiding Judge Jennifer
B. Coffman, these tapes have *not* been allowed to be played
publicly.
In Dr. Grabbe's article, "Judge Jennifer B. Coffman's Kangaroo
Court," the iconoclastic ex-Wharton professor charges that
prosecution witness Lawrence Myers, a former writer for Media
Bypass Magazine, is a convicted felon. Myers reportedly was once
convicted on an extortion charge and was later confined to a
mental institution. If true, this makes one wonder: What sort
of "witness" *is* Myers? Sherman Skolnick in the past has voiced
suspicions that Myers is not, as would seem, merely an honest
reporter trying to do his job, but a deep-cover government agent
who uses a "reporter" disguise to facilitate the gathering of
information on subversive types.
The anonymous source mentioned above, with whom I spoke by
telephone today, connects Lawrence Myers to the dismissal of
Hoppy Heidelberg from a grand jury investigating the April 19,
1995 Oklahoma City bombing or bombings. According to this
reputable source, Hoppy Heidelberg retained attorney John DeCamp
while Heidelberg was on the abovementioned grand jury.
Heidelberg himself, when I spoke with him by telephone, described
how he chose DeCamp. Heidelberg was familiar with the Liberty
Lobby organization, and sought their advice on finding a good
attorney. They recommended DeCamp. At the time, says
Heidelberg, he was unaware that DeCamp served as legal consultant
for Media Bypass Magazine.
My anonymous source tells me that, protected by attorney/client
privilege, Heidelberg discussed developments in the investigation
with DeCamp. Heidelberg says that is almost correct, but that
DeCamp, being busy at the time, hired Ted Gunderson as an
investigator and sent him to Oklahoma to talk with Heidelberg.
Ted Gunderson, having been hired by DeCamp, was also under the
cloak of attorney/client privilege, according to Heidelberg.
Heidelberg is not 100 percent certain as to the timeline of
exactly *when* he hired DeCamp as his attorney. He believes it
was shortly before he was thrown off the grand jury for
supposedly leaking information. When Gunderson came to interview
Heidelberg, he brought along a videographer to tape the
interview. Not known by Heidelberg at the time was that
Gunderson feared that something might happen to the grand juror
and wanted to have taped evidence of what was said. But
Heidelberg refused to allow the videotaping. Nonetheless, the
videographer, a Mr. Cook (or Cooke), was allowed to remain
present during the interview. Cook, says Heidelberg, having been
hired by Gunderson, was *not* bound by attorney/client privilege.
Awhile later, Cook reportedly spoke with Troy Underhill of Media
Bypass Magazine, who relayed what Cook had to say to Lawrence
Myers of that same magazine. Heidelberg says that Myers then
spoke by phone with Cook more than once, and eventually taped
what Cook had to say. Myers then reportedly phoned Heidelberg,
who listened to the tape-recording of Cook. Heidelberg insists
that he only listened, and did *not* give Myers any information.
Yet Myers, in an article in the November 1995 Media Bypass
Magazine ("OKC Grand Jurors Claim 'Cover-Up'"), claimed to have
had "an exclusive interview" with "a grand juror."
Regarding Sherman Skolnick's "Tweedledee/Tweedledum" viewpoint,
that the Hayes case is a subtle scheme whereby Myers plays the
bad guy so as to make Hayes appear to be the good guy, my
anonymous source expressed skepticism. Regarding Media Bypass
Magazine itself, my source is not certain whether they may have
been innocent dupes or if the fringe magazine is not, as it
seems, a reform-minded publication. Is Media Bypass Magazine
some sort of tricky operation, whose strings are pulled by hidden
manipulators? I phoned them today but was unable to speak with
anyone who could give an authoritative answer. One CN reader,
who has had articles published in the magazine, assures me that
they are basically aboveboard.. He claims that "an orchestrated
effort to shut down the magazine has [thus far] failed." He adds
that "Rich Azar, the news editor, is on the Hayes story and has
yet another edition of it in the February Media Bypass."

JAILED CHUCK HAYES CLAIMS FBI SETUP
Chuck Hayes is a crooked government's worst nightmare.
Which is probably why he's in jail without bond.
By James Norman
Sooner or later, Chuck Hayes and the FBI were destined for a
show-down. Either he'd get them, or they'd get him. They both
hate each other, with good reason. For many months they had
played cat and mouse, warily circling each other looking for an
opening. Finally, Chuck Hayes got a Pearl Harbor sneak attack.
It was a little after 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 22, 1996.
Sitting in the office of the 8-unit Beckett Motel in the little
town of Nancy in hilly southeastern Kentucky, overlooking a
scenic arm of Lake Cumberland called Fishing Creek, Hayes watched
as three men in suits drove up and walked in. "You rent rooms by
the week or by the month?" asked one. "By the week, but not by
the month," replied the white-haired motel proprietor and retired
CIA contractor. Cordial but cautious, Hayes could smell a G-man
miles away. "Doesn't really matter," replied FBI Special Agent
David R. Keller: "You're under arrest."
More than a month later, the 61-year-old Hayes, remains
behind bars in the nearby Laurel County Detention Facility in
London, Ky., held without bond. He is charged with supposedly
hiring an undercover FBI agent for a paltry $5,000 to kill his
son, John Anthony Hayes, a Louisville real estate salesman who
Hayes has all but disowned over alleged drug use. The "hit"
allegedly meant crossing a state line and using the mail and
telephone, so that made it a federal case. The FBI claims to
have damning evidence: taped phone conversations ordering the
supposed murder-for-hire and disposal of the body. Trial is set
for mid-January. Hayes could get 10 years in prison.
On the surface, things look grim for Hayes. On October 25,
U.S. Magistrate Judge J. B. Johnson Jr., citing Hayes Internet
nickname "Angel of Death," declared him a threat to society and a
flight risk. So he denied Hayes the right to post bail. Three
times Hayes thought he had hired a lawyer, but each backed out
for odd reasons amid speculation of government pressure. At a
pre-trial hearing November 26, Hayes had to represent himself to
get his rushed trial pushed back from December 2. Hayes has yet
to get a receipt for the $2,600 of cash or the credit cards taken
from him at the jail. And to add insult to injury, the motel
itself and the house Hayes lived in have been turned over to his
son, the would-be assassination target, as part of a long-running
inheritance dispute.
So is Hayes bummed out? Hardly. He sounds elated. Calling
collect from the jailhouse, Hayes declares with a laugh that he
will not only prove the FBI's case is a frame-up, but that it is
fraught with perjury and ethics violations. "We've notified the
court we intend to prosecute FBI agent Keller on several counts
of perjury," says Hayes. In addition, the Assistant U.S.
Attorney, Martin Hatfield "failed to carry out a court order" to
turn over evidence, claims Hayes. "That can mean his law
license, and I intend to have it." In other words, he's got 'em
right where they want him.
It gets better: "Charles Hayes is in jail because he tweaked
the government's nose," says his new lawyer, government gadfly,
legalized hemp advocate and twice-defeated Kentucky gubernatorial
candidate Gatewood Galbraith of Lexington. "They tried to induce
Charles into a crime. He, knowing it was the government, strung
them along until they got frustrated and arrested him. In fact,
a crime never occurred." Hayes claims the 10 phone tapes
belatedly turned over to him for inspection by Asst. U.S.
Attorney Hatfield, will show Hayes asking the undercover agent
for his FBI phone number, joking about stripping him of his
"wire," and proposing to meet for the payoff at a government
office. "The evidence will show he (Hayes) was aware of who they
were," says Galbraith: "It was a game to see how far he could
take the ruse." Adds Hayes: "At no time was my son ever at
risk."
Game? More like a war. This is a deadly serious
confrontation between a single-minded and unorthodox former CIA
computer spook bent on cleaning up government and a desperately
corrupt law enforcement juggernaut. Murder for hire plots? The
real question is who in Arkansas or the White House has been
putting out contracts on the life of Chuck Hayes, who claims he
has had to fend off or preempt at least three would-be attempts
on his own life by hired killers in the past two years.
Why Hayes? Because in recent years this wily, irascible
former intelligence operative has been a continual thorn in the
government's paw by catching the bureaucracy in one crooked
escapade after another. He has given testimony supporting the
$300 million claim by Inslaw Inc. that its PROMIS tracking
software was swiped by the Justice Dept. and used in a variety of
other government applications. He bought a load of used
computers from the U.S. Attorney's office in Lexington in 1990
and found the disk drives still had recoverable witness
protection files, along with unlicensed Microsoft and Lotus
programs. When the feds sued to shut him up, he won an $80,000
settlement. Plus, he has a $1 million claim against the Customs
Dept. for a 25% reward or "mordi" on delivering a huge gem
seizure in 1985, for which he's never been paid. Hayes claims
the deadbeat government is sitting on billions of dollars worth
of similar mordi claims, waiting for the claimants to die or
give up.
But those are mere annoyances. What has been giving the FBI
and Justice Dept. fits is Hayes' computer hacking. Nobody seems
to be able to prove it, but this retired CIA computer spook and
four fellow intelligence veterans, calling themselves the Fifth
Column, have armed themselves with one or more powerful Cray
supercomputers. For at least the past 5 years, they have been
hacking their way into bank, corporate and government data bases
all over the world, tracking the flow of dirty money from drug,
arms and other nefarious businesses into the offshore pockets of
the world's power elite.
First they find the money. Then they steal it. Or more
correctly, someone using the authorization codes found for those
"numbered" offshore accounts has been wire-transferring dirty
money back into escrow at the U.S. Treasury. The tax-dodging
bribe-takers are dared to come and claim it. All the proceeds go
to specified government agencies -- if they clean up their own
acts. At last count, the Fifth Column's take was pushing $4
billion, from almost 1,000 offshore accounts. It hasn't stopped
there. Starting in mid-1995 in earnest, Hayes' group began
quietly delivering plain brown envelopes to high-ranking
government officials caught in this net, confronting them with
hundreds of pages of incontrovertible bank records and other
documents. The choices offered were either to retire or face
exposure, prosecution, and loss of federal pension benefits.
The result has been an unprecedented deluge of unexpected
departures from Congress and government agencies in the past
year, many for the patently phony excuse of spending more time
with family. Both Democrats and Republicans have been nailed.
Greed knows no party lines.
On top of that, Hayes is believed to be responsible for
funneling information on funny-money bank activities to foreign
governments like Mexico, Korea, Japan and Canada to help those
countries go after political corruption. That led the Federales
to nearly half a billion dollars in Salinas family accounts at
Citibank in Switzerland, leading to a possible criminal money
laundering investigation of the U.S.'s biggest bank. Fifth
Column information has also been going to Whitewater Independent
Counsel Kenneth Starr, who is believed to have made use of it
under national security secrecy rules to help nail down the
conviction of Arkansas Gov. Jim Guy Tucker. Indeed, Fifth Column
fingerprints have been all over a spate of recent scandalous
revelations, from finding thousands of FBI files illegally
uploaded to the White House Office Data Base to tipping off The
Star tabloid and even supplying the pictures for its scoop on
toe-sucking, philandering Clinton political advisor Dick Morris.
Fifth Column snooping into unusually rich spending patterns
by employees at the IRS region headquarters in Covington, Ky., is
said to have led to the arrest of five workers there for selling
crack cocaine on the job and a grand jury is said to be looking
at possible sales of IRS files to outsiders for $500 apiece.
Circumstantial evidence that a massive, secretive upheaval is
going on in the government is plentiful, from the record
congressional departures to wholesale post-election resignations
in the Clinton Administration, and anticipated indictments of
First Lady Hillary Clinton. But there is precious little hard
proof that the Fifth Column even exists. About all there is are
the sparse details Hayes, its lone spokesman, chooses to reveal.
There is corroboration on some key points by other intelligence
sources -- too scared to be named in print. But the
implications of all this are so staggering that even clean
government officials in-the-know are loath to even whisper what's
going on. The bad guys certainly aren't talking. The
mainstream press has turned a blind eye, or pooh-poohed the story
as fanciful conspiracy theory, as if whistling past its own
graveyard. And the few journalists who have gotten a whiff of
what's happening can't get stories into print because there are
no hard documents available. Yet. That may soon change with
Hayes in jail. "The column is MAD," declares Hayes. "Things are
about to start popping."
Perhaps the clearest endorsement for Hayes' claims may be the
sheer fact he's been jailed on such a clearly manufactured
charge. He must be getting under SOMEbody's skin for doing more
than spreading baseless rumors. Indeed, FBI agent Keller
apparently was part of a 16-agent task force dispatched to try
and track down the Fifth Column's computer, believed to be an
air-cooled Cray model packed in a nondescript semi-trailer truck
with its own generator and satellite link. As a prank, someone
probably a friend of Hayes, put a captured bobcat in one of the
team's empty government vehicles one evening, tearing the car's
interior to shreds. "Maybe FBI stands for Federal Bobcat
Investigator," chortles Hayes.
Another of his epithets for the FBI: "Federal Bulls***
Investigators." Hayes is openly contemptuous of the FBI, a
perennial intramural rival of the CIA, which Hayes also says is
rife with corruption. Low paid, overgrown and prone to graft,
Hayes says the FBI has been easy prey for organized crime and
drug cartel infiltration. Technically, he points out, the FBI
is not legally chartered and its employees are not eligible for
federal pensions, can't carry guns, and can't legally send people
to prison for lying to them. That's because the FBI has
outgrown its chartered parent, the DoJ. So Hayes likes to crow
that some unknown hacker last summer busted into a government
computer in Oklahoma and digitally severed FBI head Louis Freeh
from his paycheck and government pension, at least temporarily.
Hayes speaks with equal disgust of the DoJ's penchant for
covering up official wrong-doing while crushing small-fry
lawbreakers and political enemies using intimidation, lies,
coercion and the unlimited resources of the federal bureaucracy.
He laughs when he tells how, a few years back one April 27
(Hayes' birthday), somebody hacked into the DoJ computer and
scheduled all the Washington headquarters guards for a night off.
Then a green pickup pulled up to the loading dock and made off
with a truckload of sensitive computer disks. True or false,
it's a great story. But he sheds real tears when he talks of
Danny Casolaro, a free-lance journalist found "suicided" in a
West Virginia motel room in 1991 while working with Hayes on
exposing offshore bank accounts of high level government figures.
There is considerable evidence rogue operatives connected with
DoJ's Office of Special Investigations (the vaunted Nazi-hunters)
may have been involved in Casolaro's death. "There's so many
crooks in the government," snarls Hayes, "It's like shootin' fish
in a barrel."
Hayes should know. He has spent most of his life working for
the government -- much of it cleaning up internal corruption. It
started out with him flying F86 Sabrejets at the tail end of the
Korean War, being shot down later over Vietnam, rising to Colonel
in the Air Force, and moving into the Central Intelligence Agency
as a contract operative. In the early 1980s, Hayes was posted to
Brazil, where he ran a motor home manufacturing business -- and
was instrumental in heading-off a simmering Communist
insurgency.
At various points in his career Hayes came face-to-face with
the black reality that elements of the U.S. government were
neck-deep in drug and arms running, software piracy and a raft of
other abuses. It was personal profiteering under the guise of
national policy. Like thousands of other straight government
workers who stumbled onto this dirty trail, Hayes had little
power to stop it. But he vowed one day he would deliver justice
to the well-dressed scum that were turning his beloved United
States into just another narco-republic. "Vengance is mine,
sayeth the Lord," Hayes quips, "But gettin' even is Chuck's." Or
as the motto says on his flag-bedecked Charles Hayes Group
letterhead: "If it is to be, it is up to me." The secret to
"gettin' even" came within Hayes' reach when he was assigned to a
little known team inside the CIA called Division D, or "Squad
D." According to Bob Woodward's CIA book "Veil," Division D
was "an elite group...[which] did some of the risky breaking and
entering in foreign-government offices to plant eavesdropping
equipment." Some of that was done electronically by hacking into
foreign computer systems. To do that, Hayes cryptically seems
to confirm, he was trained to maintain and customize hardware and
software for powerful, code-busting Cray supercomputers. All
he will officially admit, usually grinning through a haze of
cigarette smoke: "Mah gummint trained me wellll."
Indeed, a matchup of Charles Hayes vs. The FBI may not be as
uneven a fight as you might think. The smart money is probably
on Hayes, who has a reputation inside the spook world for
unorthodox, sometimes illegal, but usually very effective tactics
against great odds. Example: Legend has it he once shot his
way out of the Israeli Mossad's "Brick on the hill" headquarters
with a high-ranking wounded female defector. True story? Who
knows.
Though he comes across intentionally on the phone as a good-
ol'-boy junk dealer, swilling Maker's Mark bourbon at that
sleepy little motel in the boondocks, Hayes is far from a country
rube and drinks very little. He was raised in a prominent
family near Ashland, Ky., with interests in trucking, heavy
equipment and service stations. He learned to fly as a teenager
and attended the Greenbrier military academy. That's how he got
into Korean air combat at age 19. He attended law school in
Chicago, under one of many aliases, and has practiced law in The
Hague, but has never taken a U.S. bar exam. His political
acquaintances allegedly run to high levels in both parties,
nationally and in Kentucky. He claims to speak Mandarin, Farsi,
German, Portuguese and a few other languages. What's certain
is he's fluent in Hillbilly. Socially, he has hob-nobbed with
big names in the country & western music world, as well as the
Kennedy clan.
Of course, if you ask the CIA, the Pentagon, or anybody in
official Washington if they've ever heard of Chuck Hayes, all you
get are denials. Or eerie silence. His skeptics brand him a
blowhard and a kook. If he IS for real, he could hardly have a
better cover, surrounded by trusted fellow military and
intelligence veterans in a rural hamlet where strangers are
conspicuous, and very unwelcome if they still work for the
government. Moreover, even Hayes' most outlandish assertions
and predictions have a way of eventually proving true.
For instance, after returning from Brazil in 1985, Hayes
became a dealer in government surplus equipment, which has
allowed him to acquire (for mere pennies on the dollar) at least
one used Cray, from the Subic Bay naval base, and the circuit
boards and other hardware to build at least a couple more Cray-
equivalents. Add to that batteries of disk drives, generators
and sophisticated signal gear. This can be confirmed by page
after page of purchase documents, court evidence and eyewitness
inspection by at least two other journalists who have seen
roomsful of Cray components and other powerful computer hardware.
One of these writers is J. Orlin Grabbe (pronounced GRAY-
bee), a former Wharton School finance professor and author of the
current standard college text on international financial markets.
Grabbe is also an expert in the arcane pricing of "derivatives:"
put and call options and other financial instruments for risk-
hedging. He helped launch a software company (now called FNX)
that is a leader in such programs. There is no BS-ing Orlin
Grabbe on bank computing, money laundering or financial markets.
And when Grabbe and Hayes connected in mid-1995, they quickly
developed a keen mutual respect. Whatever the truth about
Hayes' other adventures, the man knew wire transfers and bank
computer security. Better make that "in"-security. Grabbe's
involvement in all this started when government intelligence
types approached the predecessor of FNX to use that company as a
front for covertly spying on the financial industry. As a
libertarian with a healthy skepticism about government meddling
in people's bedrooms and bank accounts, Grabbe was incensed.
Especially when he came to realize the feds were using any number
of similar fronts as Trojan horses into the banking world. One
of them, he heard, was Systematics Inc., a curious Little Rock
bank data processing and software firm. Now renamed Alltel
Information Services and wholly-owned by Alltel Corp. (formerly
Allied Telephone) there, Systematics had for many years been
controlled by Arkansas' Stephens family. What made Systematics
so peculiar to Grabbe was that this small company in Arkansas,
with little proprietary software of its own, had managed to land
extremely sensitive back-office bank data jobs in such unlikely
places as Moscow, Macao , Singapore, Malasia and Pakistan, just
about the time Bill Clinton was elected in 1992. Grabbe posted
a bibliography of Systematics' press releases about these deals
on the Internet, hoping it would pique someone's interest.
It certainly got mine. For several months in early 1995, as
a senior editor at Forbes magazine, I had been working on a
complex story involving Inslaw and its PROMIS software. One of
the companies suspected of illegally reselling that program, as
part of a National Security Agency effort to spy on world money
flows, or possibly to actually launder covert funds, was
Systematics. Moreover, Deputy White House Counsel Vincent W.
Foster, while an attorney at the Rose Law firm, is believed to
have been a key go-between or handler for Systematics' relations
with the super-secret National Security Agency. Systematics
adamantly denied to Forbes that it had any ties to Foster or the
NSA. But Washington Weekly, under a year-old Freedom of
Information Act Request, has recently obtained documents that
clearly tie Foster to highly sensitive NSA matters in the White
House, and show sensitive NSA contracts with a Systematics
affiliate.
The most explosive aspect of that story, later dubbed
"Fostergate," was that at the time of his supposed "suicide" in
July 1993, I had confirmed from multiple sources that Foster was
under counter-intelligence surveillance himself. He had been
suspected of selling high-level national security codes and other
secrets to the State of Israel. How was he first discovered?
The Fifth Column had found a coded Foster account at a former
unit of the Bank Ambrosiano, the Banca della Svizzera Italiana
in Chiaso, Switz., with nearly $3 million in it from Israeli
banks. Worse, his former Rose partner Hillary Clinton was
suspected of sharing in the proceeds of that account, with or
without knowing how the cash was generated. Forbes declined to
run the story, but gave me permission to publish it elsewhere.
"We can't say that about Systematics (an advertizer) and we can't
say that about Israel" I was told. Having confirmed much of
the story from his own sources, Grabbe posted the story on
several Internet newsgroups. It then ran in alternative monthly
called Media Bypass, despite efforts by Systematics (and the
government) to squelch it with libel threats.
That began a long series of follow-up postings on the
Internet by Grabbe elaborating on the murky world of
intelligence, finance, drug-money laundering and computers. It
has gone far to explain the depth of corruption that lies beneath
the seemingly penny-ante "Whitewater" scandal and is now an
amazing library of articles on his web site at
http://www.aci.net/kalliste/. In the flurry of newsgroup
chatter that followed about Swiss accounts and congressional
retirements, I posted a message to explain the Fifth Column's
role in delivering resignation ultimatums as akin to the Biblical
Angel of Death at Passover. The phrase stuck and Hayes was
soon being referred to as AOD. Of course it has never referred
to anything other than career death for crooked politicians.
But Judge Johnson seemed to think it was threatening enough to
keep an innocent man locked up without bail.
Indeed, FBI agent Keller, in sworn testimony, claimed in
court that Grabbe was merely a pen-name for Hayes, who was really
the author of Grabbe's taunting Sept. 18 post presaging Hayes'
arrest, titled "The Dickheads are getting desperate." In that,
Grabbe poked fun at the FBI, but deftly expressed growing public
concern over the encroachment of government authority. Keller
cited that as a threat of armed reaction and blamed Hayes. The
U.S. government is determined to keep Charles locked up. Just as
in 1941, Chuck Hayes has suffered a Pearl Harbor. And he may
suffer another year of setbacks, like the U.S. did in the
Pacific. But ultimately those World War II losses were more than
reversed and a totalitarian state was eventually crushed. What
the Justice Department must be wondering: Does Hayes have an A-
bomb ticking?

$50 million: From Illinois, to Arkansas, to the Cayman Islands
-- Joseph Andreuccetti, an Illinois caulking contractor, gets put
into involuntary bankruptcy. Supposedly he has borrowed
$900,000, but really he never saw one dime of the money. So
where did the money go? Allegedly it, included in a $50 million
Resolution Trust Corporation contingency fund, got sent to
Arkansas to cover up an embezzlement from Madison Guaranty
Savings and Loan. I have spoke and met with Andreuccetti several
times and believe that he was indeed robbed and that the courts
are giving him the runaround in several cases he has subsequently
brought forward.
Next, Congressman Dan Burton (R., Ind.) goes on-record about a
$50 million transfer of Arkansas Development Finance Authority
(ADFA) money to the Cayman Islands. Burton wonders aloud, Why on
earth did ADFA money, meant to benefit Arkansas small business,
get sent to the Cayman Islands? Says Burton on May 29, 1996:
ADFA [Arkansas Development Finance Authority] was created
by Governor Clinton in 1985 to provide economic development
loans in Arkansas. In December of 1988, ADFA deposited $50
million in a Japanese bank in the Cayman Islands. I have a
copy of the contract that I will enter into the record. I
have also delivered a copy of this document to the
Independent Counsel's office. Why would an economic
development agency in Arkansas deposit $50 million in a
bank in the Cayman Islands? The Cayman Islands are a
well-known center of money laundering for drug dealers.
The State Department's international narcotics control
report described the Caymans as "a haven for money
laundering."
One of the questions that I think is very, very important
is why did the Arkansas Development Financial Authority
send $50 million of Arkansas money to the Cayman Islands to
deposit in a bank in the Cayman Islands, which is a major
drug transit point acknowledged by almost every DEA agent
in the world? I have the electronic bank transfer
statements in my office. I am going to put them in the
Congressional Record. There is no doubt the money was
wired to the Cayman Islands. The question needs to be
asked, why was it wired? Why would the Governor of
Arkansas allow that? (Congressional Record, 5/29/96,
H5627-28.)
Later in 1996, Sherman Skolnick and Joseph Andreuccetti file suit
against, among others, First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton,
charging that plaintiffs obstructed disclosure
of the secret details of the unlawful transfer of a 50
million dollar portion of 58.4 million dollars of funds of
the Federal Home Loan Bank, parked and held in custody, and
supposed to be so, with Household Bank and Household
International in the Chicago area, and supposed to be held
to make good the claims of plaintiff Andreuccetti.
...the use of said 50 million dollar unlawful transfer by
defendant Hillary Rodham Clinton was to cover up 47 million
dollars that was misappropriated and embezzled, and/or
otherwise unlawfully encumbered, used, or removed from an
Arkansas savings and loan, Madison Guaranty Savings and
Loan, as to which defendant Hillary Rodham Clinton and her
husband, William Jefferson Clinton, committed or caused to
be committed, and allowed, permitted, and condoned, and
acquiesced in, acts and doings punishable under provisions
of the federal criminal code.
Responding to Skolnick and Andreuccetti's lawsuit, lawyers
representing Hillary Rodham Clinton stated that
Plaintiff's complaint fails to meet the minimum standards
of intelligibility and brevity... The complaint is both
frivolous and abusive and is yet another example of
plaintiffs' misuse of the judicial process. Accordingly,
the complaint against Mrs. Clinton should be dismissed with
prejudice.
[The plaintiffs' complaint is] a convoluted and lengthy
collection of allegations that are either unintelligible or
irrelevant. To take but one example, in paragraph 30 (part
of a four-and-a-half page narration of a purported meeting
with an IRS agent), plaintiffs appear to allege that a
United States bankruptcy trustee is corrupt, that the
"nephew/godson" of a bishop embezzled $900,000, that one of
the plaintiffs has been put into involuntary bankruptcy as
a result of fraud, that a bank involved in that bankruptcy
was run by someone who used to be the head of the
"mafia-dominated Vatican Bank," and that the United States
Attorney's Office in Chicago is yet another corrupt
institution. Even after partially untangling this dense
web of accusations, the relationship of the allegations to
any cause of action that might reasonably be brought
against the defendant Hillary Rodham Clinton remains a
complete mystery.
Representing Hillary Rodham Clinton and authors of the above
excerpts from "Memorandum of Points and Authorities in Support of
Defendant Hillary Rodham Clinton's Motion to Dismiss" are David
E. Kendall, Nicole K. Seligman, Max Stier, and also Michael R.
Feagley and Walter M. Rogers of the firm Mayer, Brown & Platt.
Confused? Or perhaps cherubic Lady Clinton's face makes you
think, "Naw, not Hillary. She wouldn't be connected with any
embezzlement." Then consider the following statement by Lisa
Schiffren, as reported in the February 1997 issue of George
magazine:
A better financial journalist than me would be well
employed finding out where the Clintons have stashed their
money offshore. I would imagine there are hundreds of
thousands of dollars sitting in the Cayman Islands. I
really believe this. If I had a lot of time and someone
was willing to pay me a lot of money, I'd go find it. The
$100,000 [which Hillary Rodham Clinton made in the cattle
futures market], courtesy of Tyson Foods, is the tip of the
iceberg. I'm giving them credit for having been bought for
more than a measly hundred grand.

Charles "Chuck" Hayes Convicted -- Ex-CIA agent Chuck Hayes is
fed up with corrupt government. He gets a powerful Cray
computer, loads it into a semi-trailer, then he and his Merry Men
roam the nation, hacking into secret Swiss bank accounts and
putting the fear of God into American politicians. The corrupt
politicos and their bureaucratic minions strike back. Presumably
they have questionable quantity Lawrence Myers, journalist
*extraordinaire*, lie to the FBI that Hayes is shopping for a
"wet boy" (hit man). FBI has one of their agents, reportedly a
former member of the Outlaws motorcycle gang, phone Hayes. Hayes
apparently knows full well he is talking to an FBI man, but
decides to play along. The FBI man says he can do the "job" for
$5,000, and supposedly Hayes contracts with him to murder his
son. Gotcha! FBI arrests Hayes, and Hayes stands trial. A jury
convicts Hayes and he now faces as much as 10 years in prison.
Present during the Hayes trial was "Limpiar Phebi Dojocia"
(pseudonym). I spoke with "Limpiar" on the phone today, and
here's what I got:
** The jury was 8 to 4, with four of its members favoring
acquittal. That got narrowed down to one, then none, and the
jury returned a guilty verdict.
** The prosecution did a last minute, dramatic unveiling of a
Federal Express envelope, giving the impression it was "hot
stuff, just in." The envelope, from the CIA, contained a
response to inquiries. Says CIA: "Chuck Hayes? Chuck Hayes?
Nope, never heard of him." But, says "Limpiar," the envelope in
fact must have arrived on or about January 15, making the January
29th "dramatic unveiling" misleading. An added prosecution
benefit of this "last minute" routine is that defense discovery
guidelines get bypassed; how can prosecution have shared the
letter with defense when they themselves "just now got it."
** Why didn't defense attorney Gatewood Galbraith call Bill
Hamilton, of Inslaw, as a witness? Hamilton could have verified
that Hayes was indeed a former CIA employee. "Limpiar" tells me
that Hamilton was willing to testify. Much of the case hinged on
whether or not Hayes really was a former CIA agent. Apparently
the only one called by Galbraith to corroborate the claim was
James Norman, former senior editor with Forbes magazine.

Re-arranging Deck Chairs on the Titanic -- Commenting on recent
revelations regarding FBI crime lab bungling and worse, Stephen
Jones, attorney for accused OKC bombing(s) mastermind Timothy
McVeigh, stated that it was "like re-arranging deck chairs on the
Titanic." Jones thinks that the government's case against
McVeigh is hopeless, and, seemingly, the recent revelations
amount to nothing toward altering the futility of the
government's case.
So what is going on? Why the revelations?
Recall how, not long after the April 19, 1995 bombing(s),
Colonel (Retired) James "Bo" Gritz and others were referring to
McVeigh as "Lee Harvey McVeigh." This was an allusion to Lee
Harvey Oswald, accused lone assassin of President John F.
Kennedy. Paraded into the angry Oklahoma sunshine shortly after
the bombing of the Murrah Building, clad in a bright orange "see
me" jumpsuit, it appeared as if *someone* might save the
prosecution some work by murdering McVeigh, a la Jack Ruby doing
the same to Oswald. Were the government and/or its agents hoping
that might happen, that McVeigh would magically be removed from
the equation?
Unfortunately for those desiring the removal of McVeigh and
consequent absence of a trial in the matter, McVeigh was not
assassinated and the trial is at last imminent. McVeigh's
attorney Stephen Jones seems to be no slouch, and with closed
circuit television to be made available to interested survivors,
family members, and apparently to an alert underground press,
Jones *will* be heard. And he will be heard *without* the
"helpful" little interpolations of corporate "news" media. This
spells trouble for any working to cover up the truth about the
Oklahoma City bombing(s). By now they must be wishing, more
fervently than ever, that McVeigh could somehow just disappear.
With that as background, consider how convenient it would be
for the case against McVeigh to be thrown out, due to tainted
evidence. Recent revelations about FBI crime lab misdoings come
at an opportune time for any who are wishing that the upcoming
trial would just go away. And, FBI could just sit back and say,
"Well, we *know* that McVeigh did it. It's just that picky
legalities thwarted justice."

ARREST OF HACKER CASTS DISPERSION {1}
ON STORY OF CIA LOOTING ACCOUNTS
=====================================
--------------------------------------------
Did an ex-CIA agent attempt to contract for
the death of his son over an inheritance, or
are powerful forces retaliating against the
raiding of secret, overseas bank accounts?
---------------------------------------------
(The Spotlight, 2/10/97)
Article by The Spotlight Staff
------------------------------
A Nancy, Kentucky man accused of being the buyer in a
murder-for-hire scheme remains in federal custody after his
latest request for bond was denied by U.S. District Judge
Jennifer Coffman.
Lexington, Kentucky attorney Gatewood Galbraith had filed a
motion for a bond hearing for his client, Charles "Chuck" Hayes,
who has remained in the Laurel County Detention Center in London,
Kentucky since his October 22 arrest for allegedly conspiring to
have his son killed.
So far, nothing sounds particularly out of the ordinary. Persons
charged with felonies are often denied bail for a variety of
reasons. But a peek behind the mainstream media's minimalist
reports reveals disturbing details.
Remember the story of U.S. government functionaries, many of them
members of Congress, having secret bank accounts in foreign
countries, mostly Switzerland? [CN: See Orlin Grabbe articles
at http://www.shout.net/~bigred/cn.html for background]
Supposedly, the CIA found out about it through computer
"hacking," then drained the accounts, using the money for its own
purposes. {2} The people whose secret accounts were drained
couldn't, of course, complain because they couldn't admit to
having a secret, overseas account.
The accused, Chuck Hayes, is alleged to be the CIA "hacker" who
got into the overseas accounts and helped his employer drain them
[sic, see note #2 below]. He was part of an alleged CIA
operation [sic] code-named the Fifth Column.
After Hayes went public he was arrested, accused of trying to
hire a "hit man" to kill his son. There's a sequence of events
that is more than coincidence, according to his friends.
In his motion for a bond hearing, Galbraith cited misfeasance on
the part of FBI Agent David Keller. He says Keller's October 25,
1996 testimony was tainted. According to Galbraith, as reported
on the Internet: "In essence, the vast majority of alleged proof
presented by the government at the detention hearing of [Hayes]
was unsubstantiated, even though it could have easily been
checked out for its truthfulness if the government had so
desired, and it is this disdain and disregard for possible
exculpatory evidence that so taints the testimony of the lead
prosecution witness at the detention hearing, Special Agent David
Keller."
Hayes was arraigned on November 27, 1996 on the "conspiracy to
murder" charge, based primarily on testimony from the FBI.
Galbraith reportedly told reporter Sherry Price of the Pulaski
(County) Weekly News, "If I were a good citizen of the state of
Kentucky, I would strap on my weapons and go looking for federal
agents... because they do happen to be murderous bastards, and I
might need to protect myself in legal and justifiable
self-defense by blowing someone's head off." {3}.
All motions before the court on behalf of Hayes have been denied.
The latest, filed on December 19, 1996, was denied on December 30
by Magistrate J.B. Johnson, which included a motion requesting
that the "Findings of Facts" on November 26 by Johnson be
corrected.
According to published reports, Galbraith stated in a motion that
"the original court was grievously misled by the alleged proof
presented at the detention hearing on behalf of the government,
much of which is impeachable by the most cursory independent
investigation."
Who's Grabbe?
One of the reasons given by the government to deny bond to Hayes
were Internet postings by one "J. Orlin Grabbe," which the FBI
alleges is really a pen name for Hayes.
However, Grabbe is an internationally known financial specialist
who lives in Nevada and is the author of college textbooks on
finance and economics, who had become friendly with Hayes,
according to Galbraith.
One Grabbe posting on the Internet said that everything about the
Fifth Column was a lie to make "Jim Norman struggle to create
stories from the concept." {4}. That concept included President
Bill Clinton's CIA connection and the "suicide" of White House
insider Vince Foster. Apparently the FBI failed to find any
humor in the piece.
The article downloaded from the Internet and forwarded to The
Spotlight said Grabbe, Hayes and White House spokesman Mike
McCurry discussed strategies to keep the ruse alive.
The allegations of murder-for-hire stem from a dispute Hayes has
with his son over the estate of Haye's mother, Madge Beckett.
She left the majority of her $920,000 estate to her grandson,
John, leaving defendant Hayes $1,000. John's brother was willed
$500. The estate has been contested since Mrs. Beckett's death
on December 26, 1994.
Says Galbraith, the nickname "Angel of Death" given to Hayes was
from his activities in exposing illegal monetary activities by
government officials, causing many to retire; i.e., causing their
political death.
The trial is expected to be underway by the time this issue of
The Spotlight reaches its subscribers. [CN: Hayes was found
guilty and is awaiting sentencing.]
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
(From a related story, "RFA Examines Links In Scandals,"
Spotlight, 2/10/97.)
[Excerpts] Chicago's Sherman Skolnick returned to Radio
Free America (RFA) January 26... Skolnick also commented
upon the ongoing trial of CIA operative Charles Hayes...
Hayes is believed to be the man behind the stories about
Vince Foster and the computer hackers told by former Forbes
magazine editor Jim Norman... The government's primary
witness against Hayes, who is charged with plotting to kill
his son, turned out to be Lawrence W. Myers, formerly the
top reporter for Media Bypass magazine... Skolnick said
that he suspected Myers was undercover from the beginning,
and now he suspects that both Myers and Hayes are somehow
involved in a disinformation campaign centered around
statements that will come from this trial...
---------------------------<< NOTES>>---------------------------
{1} "Arrest of Hacker Casts Dispersion..." Casts *Dispersion*?
Am I missing some nuance, or should it have read something like
"Casts Doubt"?
{2} "Supposedly, the CIA found out about it through computer
'hacking,' then drained the accounts, using the money for its own
purposes." Not quite right. Allegedly, a rogue group of ex-CIA
hackers drained the accounts. Allegedly, they were not operating
on behalf of CIA. The Spotlight article is also misleading when
it states the money was "used for its own purposes." Allegedly,
the money was held in some sort of U.S. Treasury account, pending
cleanup of government corruption. At that point, presumably, the
money was to have been released, by the rogue hackers, to CIA.
{3} Regarding Gatewood Galbraith's supposed advice to "strap on
weapons" and "go looking for federal agents," *if* Galbraith made
such a statement, that is appalling. Just because FBI is going
around murdering people doesn't make it okay for others to do
likewise.
{4} "One Grabbe posting on the Internet said that everything
about the Fifth Column was a lie..." Apparently refers to Dr.
Grabbe's satirical essay, "An Apology and Good-Bye." This editor
was amazed when several readers could not seem to understand the
satirical nature of the essay and took it literally. Apparently
the Spotlight staff is similarly unable to detect satire.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
USE AT OWN RISK!
================
I received the following, with title "Use At Own Risk,"
anonymously. I caution the reader that I have no idea how
accurate or correct the information given is. NOTE THAT THIS IS
THE *COMPLETE VERSION*, AND NOT THE *ALTERED* VERSION, WHICH WAS
RECENTLY COUNTERFEITED AND FAXED NATIONWIDE.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
The following are primarily operatives of the ultra-right
so-called "Christian" movement. They have been diligently
tracked; in some cases for ten or more years. With hardly an
exception, they are dedicated to various acts and doings to delay
the downfall of Bill Clinton while they engage in attacks on Vice
President Al Gore. They perceive him as a "socialist" or closet
"communist" and believe in some of the assertions in Edward J.
Epstein's recent book about the late Armand Hammer in respect to
the Gore family. They believe that before Clinton is forced out,
they have to destroy, by various means, Al Gore so that he could
not, upon the downfall of Clinton, become the President. Whether
they do or do not prefer Jay Rockefeller to replace Al Gore is an
unanswered question.
Some of them over the years may have -- for appearances --
criticized one another but nevertheless, have acted as a team.
They are most every one of them viciously anti-Israel for
religious and other reasons, and generally oppose Jews,
particularly in the financial markets.
RONALD F. MEEKER: For some years purportedly "worked" for
Alexander Proudfoot, international business consultants, Chicago
and elsewhere. Traveled worldwide. Overseas he interfaced with
the American CIA. Domestically, he had working relationship with
the FBI. His ex-wife (2nd wife), Rebecca Meeker, claims he
wanted to move from Florida to Hong Kong area which she was not
in favor of. She alleges he got burned out on dope. He, on the
other hand, claims she has been "mule" -- courier -- for dope
shipments through various Florida and other offices purportedly
financial intermediaries, such as loan companies, S&Ls, and such.
>From all the details, they appear to have been espionage couple.
>From some time prior to 1995 to on or about November, 1996, he
lived on sizeable farm with his parents, Covington, Indiana,
across from Danville, Illinois. Now dresses like Nevada gangster
to fit in with those he is part of in Cordova, Tennessee. Meeker
helped install Lawrence W. Myers (also known as Myers W.
Lawrence, and various other names) as chief investigative
reporter at Media Bypass Magazine. The magazine got going just
before or about the time of the Oklahoma City bombings. The
publisher, Jim Thomas, claims he had at one time topmost security
clearance and he says "worked on the atomic bomb." The magazine
publishes numerous anti-Clinton pieces and is dedicated to
controlling what the Christian ultra-right knows or thinks about
Clinton. Meeker has been business consultant for Jeremiah Films,
propaganda instrument for the Christian ultra-right. It
purportedly is operated by Mr. Pat Matrisciana who earlier in his
career was purportedly undercover operative for FBI to penetrate
West Coast dissident movements. His consultant on day to day
matters uses the fake name "John Bennett," has extremely good
access to FBI records and Kenneth Starr's inner sanctum.
At one time, Jeremiah Films, with full-page rear cover ads for
Media Bypass, was major source of funds per month for the
magazine. Exposure of Myers as some type of government operative
caused Jeremiah Films to withdraw their support.
Meeker co-ordinates the acts and doings of most of the rest of
those herein mentioned in their activities in respect to Gore and
Clinton, including "Bennett." Although not publicly identified
with Kenneth Starr, Meeker is one of his principal non-lawyer
operatives.
Good reason to believe Meeker is co-ordinating oriental
scandals against Gore.
JOHN BROWN: With Karen Brown, purports to be manager of
brokerage firm, "Vining - Sparks, Investment Brokers," Little
Rock, Arkansas. John Brown once Arkansas state detective, claims
he got in trouble working on the case, about 1988, where two
young boys were found dead on railroad track: apparently they
were murdered because they took too much interest in planes at
night dropping satchels apparently of dope. Brown ran
unsuccessfully for sheriff in 1996 in county near Little Rock.
Brown travels around the country spreading disinformation or
premature information, to sabotage and delay downfall of Bill
Clinton while Brown, Meeker, and others of their team crank up
scandal against Gore. Brown apparently the source supplying data
for exclusive story, 2/15/97, in Democrat-Gazette, Little Rock,
that Starr's office conducted "mock" trials, two in Little Rock,
two in Washington, D.C., with Bill and Hillary Clinton as
purported defendants or prospective defendants. Brown and his
associates then apparently torpedoed the story, so that one of
the officials of that newspaper had to say the "source" now says
the story is not "correct" -- the correspondent working on the
exclusive story contends the story was and is correct, despite
the backtracking of the "source," apparently John Brown.
The purpose was to give Starr, the team, and others, more
time, delaying the downfall of Bill Clinton while they go about
wrecking and scandalizing Gore who they perceive as a closet
"communist," unfit to replace Clinton as President.
Efforts by this team to delay downfall of Clinton while they
destroy Gore are aided by certain Detroit mobsters tied to John
Brown, Ron Meeker, and others of the team. Namely, "Detroit"
Copeland, sometimes called "Detroit" Kaplan, and "Horse Face
Pete." Their actual names and addresses in Detroit so far
difficult to uncover.
Through her brokerage connections and Detroit links, John
Brown's wife, Karen, is actually in control of his efforts on the
team as to Clinton and Gore. John Brown, together with Meeker,
and others of their team, co-ordinate a group of ex-GIs who
served in Viet Nam and are now "murder for hire" hit men, who
pose an extreme danger to Gore and his circle. The "hit men"
include and are supervised by Gary Collins who travels
extensively in a camper with John Brown checking out details how
to go about murdering witnesses so as to slow down the downfall
of Clinton while they plot to destroy Gore. Collins, with an
extreme pathological personality, is the type who could kill
someone and then go and eat his lunch. He has recently moved to
Jefferson City, Missouri.
To slow down the demise of Clinton, John Brown and Gary
Collins apparently arranged the murder of John Tarullo, Berwyn,
Illinois (a Chicago suburb near the Mafia enclave of Cicero).
Tarullo, a retired member of the London Gold Pool, had inside
knowledge of Vincent W. Foster, Jr's., money laundering efforts
on behalf of Bill Clinton that could have put the President
quickly in prison. Tarullo was murdered August 28, 1996, shortly
after John Brown and Gary Collins drove back from Detroit to
visit Tarullo on a pretext.
FRANCIS K. FONG: Defrocked professor originally with Purdue
University, Lafayette, Indiana. Believed to be chief of the Te
Wu, the Red Chinese secret police, operating in the U.S. Retired
intelligence sources have complained to CIA and others, to no
avail, that the Te Wu was operating in the U.S. since the end of
the Korean War, to punish the U.S. for taking action in North
Korea that forced Red China to enter the war as U.S. troops
approached the China boundary at the Yalu River. Not restrained
by the CIA (because the CIA was too busy tracking Te Wu, and so
didn't restrain them), the Red Chinese Secret Police have
committed assassinations, bombings, and mayhem within the U.S.,
and have gone unpublicized and unpunished, according to retired
intelligence operatives working in small teams to investigate Te
Wu's U.S. activities.
Fong patented a form of heavy water process for creating
energy. He comes from prominent ultra-rich family in Shanghai,
linked to the Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank (Hong-Shang Bank), long
tied to financing the dope trade going all the way back to the
Opium Wars of the 19th Century.
Up to about 1989, Fong was in the energy-patent form of
business and his business partners included Bishop Paul
Marcinkus, head of the Vatican Bank, and Walter J. Cummings, Jr.,
Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit,
headquartered in Chicago. Cummings and his family have been,
according to the financial disclosures required of members of the
judiciary, major owners of the Continental Bank of Chicago, a
major depository for the Vatican as well as the commodity
exchanges and markets in Chicago. Fong has been in a position to
have inside information as to the soybean deals, in the billions
of dollars, used to disguise dope funds from Arkansas
incriminating Bill and Hillary Clinton. Fong has had a close
link with Stein, Roe & Farnham, at one time the brokerage for the
Vatican.
Fong reportedly kept track of the top U.S. military official,
from West Lafayette, Indiana, who headed up a coup attempt
against Commander-in-Chief Clinton and who perished in a
sabotaged plane crash, killing an entire group of coup-plotters,
April 17, 1995, near Alexander City, Alabama (near a secret Delta
Force base). Some contend snuffing out the coup had some link to
the Oklahoma City bombings, two days later, April 19, 1995, and
that weekend, April 22, 1995, Independent Counsel Kenneth W.
Starr made apparently his first entrance into the Clinton White
House to take the deposition of the President and the First Lady.
Although Fong is part of the team herein mentioned, with
Meeker, John Brown, Gary Collins, and others, from time to time
they appear or pretend to be on the outs with one another. For
example, Fong claims Gary Collins called Fong on the phone and
threatened to murder him; apparently some kind of shakedown by
John Brown and Gary Collins. Fong, for some acquaintances, plays
a purported audio tape recording that appears to be, in fact, the
voice of Gary Collins.
Fong has a form of laboratory in his basement where he is an
expert at creating fake documents.. He is in a position to create
so-called "documents" for or against Bill Clinton or Al Gore, for
use by the team members. As the apparent head, in the U.S., of
Te Wu, Fong is in a position to get purported inside data to be
used to supposedly incriminate Al Gore on alleged oriental-type
scandals. And to combine that with fabricated documents to make
it all appear to be a genuine scandal against Gore.
Fong's expertise in claiming to have "genuine" tapes, records,
and documents, are set forth in an extremely lengthy decision by
a federal district judge, published in a law court report,
available in law libraries: Francis K. Fong vs. Purdue
University, 692 Federal Supplement 930 (U.S. District Court,
Northern District of Indiana, Hammond at Lafayette Division, Aug.
10, 1988). The printed decision goes on to page 968 in that
volume.
Fong's wife works as a purported volunteer for a foundation
reportedly linked to the American CIA, the Wildlife Foundation.
Fong's brother heads up an Oriental Museum linked to Princeton
University. Fong keeps track of the money laundering through a
riverboat gambling casino in Joliet, Illinois (a south suburb of
Chicago), of "China White," high-purity heroin from South West
China, flooding into the United States through small airports
surrounding Chicago, including the Joliet Municipal Airport; the
Lansing, Illinois Airport (another suburb); and through
Pal-Waukee Airport, near Prospect Heights, Illinois (a north
suburb of Chicago).
Fong's business partner, Bishop Paul Marcinkus, while head of
the Vatican Bank, also was the dominant force running First
National Bank of Cicero (Cicero being a long-known Mafia enclave,
adjacent to Chicago). The Cicero bank, together with Household
International and Household Bank, were the ones that arranged the
secret transfer of 50 million dollars of federal funds from
Chicago to Little Rock, and thence to a known dope money laundry
in the Caribbean and thence to Swiss accounts. All, for the
purpose of attempting to cover up the 47 million dollars
embezzled from Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan, for which Bill
and Hillary are subject to federal criminal prosecution and
prison.
JAMES R. VASSILOS: Divorced from his wife who is part of
Algemene Bank Nederland (ABN) and AMRO Bank, 8th largest bank
chain in Europe, now actively gobbling up banks in most major
cities in the U.S. Vassilos is a money laundry expert through his
ex-brother-in-law, Theo Bark, a director of ABN-AMRO. Vassilos
was disbarred in Illinois in May, 1993, for, among other things,
cheating his clients in personal injury cases. Despite that,
Vassilos travels around the nation, purporting to be the *pro
bono* (for free) attorney for CIA pilots who get in trouble, CIA
covert operators who get in trouble, and such. He was the
purported legal advisor for Charles Hayes, another member of the
"destroy Gore" team. Hayes, from the small town of Nancy,
Kentucky, was found guilty about February, 1997, of arranging a
murder contract against his estranged son in a probate dispute.
The key witness against Hayes was Lawrence W. Myers, an FBI
undercover operative.
Vassilos is viciously "anti-Socialist," and "anti-Communist."
He regularly travels the route around the nation to the other
team members, staying at their residence: Francis K. Fong,
Charles Hayes, John Brown, and others. With the help of
Vassilos, the team hopes to slow down the downfall of Clinton,
while they go about destroying the one they perceive as a closet
"Communist," Al Gore, unfit in their view to become the President
upon the wreckage of Clinton. Vassilos mouths off most every
word "Jesus Christ." For the purpose of running an espionage
front, for many years Vassilos, with the help of team member
Michael Tario, ran the Chicagoland version of the "National Day
of Prayer."
Vassilos' live-in girl friend is Shirley Sitrick, once married
to a member of the Sitrick family. Her brother-in-law, Michael
Sitrick, is into crisis management, Los Angeles, Chicago, New
York, and apparently has a link to Fred Goldman, an advertising
executive, father of Ron Goldman, slain along with Nicole Brown
Simpson. In her divorce case, she contended another
brother-in-law in the Sitrick family was a member of Israeli
intelligence.
Vassilos apparently makes the financial arrangements to keep
the "destroy Gore" team going. He reportedly has vast sums,
skimmed off various scams by him and others, parked with small,
downstate Indiana banks. Vassilos goes directly to the bank
president's home of such banks and transacts right there.
Primarily with banks that do not keep microfilm records of past
transactions.
Vassilos is a close associate of Dan Walker, Sr., who was sent
to jail in the downfall of a Savings & Loan, in Oakbrook, a
Chicago suburb. The S&L was wrecked by bond schemes from Bill
Clinton's dope crony, Dan Lasater. Hillary Clinton and Vince
Foster, as lawyers, were brought in by the Resolution Trust
Corp., the S&L bailout agency, to handle the affairs of this
defunct S&L. According to published accounts, Hillary and Foster
falsely settled the matter for a mere pittance, defrauding the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. The major outside counsel for
RTC has been Hopkins & Sutter, of which Tario's brother-in-law,
Dan Hartnett, is a partner.
Vassilos is an expert on how to speed up or slow down the
Clinton scandal, so as to give the team more time to set about to
destroy Al Gore.
MICHAEL J. TARIO: He and his associates in the late 1970s were
the brokers, fixers, and scam experts for the Pope's banker,
Michele Sindona, a leading so-called "anti-communist." They
transacted on the American Stock Exchange and elsewhere.
Background reading: "St. Peter's Banker: Michele Sindona" by
Luigi DiFonzo (Franklin Watts, 1983, New York, London, Toronto,
Sydney).
Together with Mark Sato (later detailed), they fingered
several Jews who were big in supporting Israel: Michael Milken
and Ivan Boesky. Tario and Sato, both part of the team
mentioned, are viciously anti-Israel and oppose Gore who
apparently favors Israel.
As an IBM systems analyst and engineer, Mark Sato set up the
computer that took the Midwest Stock Exchange (now called the
Chicago Stock Exchange) from paper records to computer record
keeping, 1978. Built into the system was a way for certain
exchange officials to skim off hundreds of millions of dollars by
phantom records (from 1987 to date, the subject of a lawsuit in
the Chancery Division, of Cook County Circuit Court, against the
Midwest Stock Exchange).
Tario has inside connections to cabinet members in Tokyo and
Rome. This enables Tario to be a highly "successful" currency
and other instrument trader. From 1988 to 1992, Tario was the
president of Lashco, Inc. and LCO Trading Company, trading on the
major exchanges. The Chief Executive Officer of these firms,
Lance W. Shields, locked Tario out of the company in 1992,
contending Tario was skimming off funds through the computer;
Tario, in turn, accused Shields of secretly setting up the
computer for "front running" the firm's clients, apparently
cheating the clients of vast sums of money.
MARK SATO: After fingering and setting up Michael Milken and
Ivan Boesky, Sato apparently became an FBI informant and
provocateur. He poses as a purported "illegal tax protester."
He specializes in supposedly setting up Bahamian trusts for
runaway money. Does the money somehow fall into the hands of the
government?
As a computer analyst and engineer, Sato set up most of the
computers for commodity brokers on LaSalle Street in Chicago. He
apparently aided the Japanese in efforts by them to get an
armlock on the Chicago markets in the early 1980s. A
knowledgeable intelligence operative contended that Sato worked
off and on for the Japanese secret police in the U.S. Since there
are apparent efforts by the team to scandalize Al Gore on some
"oriental" matter, Sato is the perfect one to assist Vassilos,
Meeker, Fong, and others to slow down the Clinton scandal while
they set about to wreck or try to wreck Al Gore.
Viciously anti-Israel and anti-Jew, Sato is a natural member
of the "get Gore" team. Sato has a good handle on the soybean
dealings used to disguise dope money. He once publicly ridiculed
a commodity expert on the dope question, by way of Sato
preserving his "cover."
Most of the foregoing team members are intermediaries,
investigators, and compilers of data for the Independent Counsel
Kenneth W. Starr. They spread disinformation to slow down the
Clinton scandals while they set about to wreck Al Gore who they
perceive as being unpatriotic and unfit to replace Clinton. In
their work, the team members engage in extreme extortion,
shake-downs, and blackmail. Tens of thousands of pages have been
compiled on their dirty work which is allowed, permitted, and
condoned by Starr and his cronies. This team is not the visible
group of lawyers as assistant prosecutors written about in the
press from time to time {1}. Charles Hayes, once of Nancy,
Kentucky, apparently arranged or was about to arrange to
fabricate records with the use of computers to try to frame Al
Gore. Hayes relied heavily on team member Fong for document
faking. Hayes, among the team members, refers to Fong as "the
chink."
Putting the finger, publicly, on this team of blackmailers,
extortionists, and gangster business arrangers, would tend to
force Starr to proceed full speed ahead against Clinton and wreck
the schemes of the "get Gore" team.
This report is backed up by a virtual warehouse of tapes,
records, and reports which are here just summarized.

with the alleged team mentioned above) reportedly includes 150
"surrogates."

Government Used False CIA Affidavits
Against Charles Hayes, Defense Says
by J. Orlin Grabbe
As I have previously reported, the
U.S. Attorney's office for the Eastern
District of Kentucky--which had charged
Charles Hayes in a murder-for-hire
scheme--displayed as its chief witness
a convicted felon and former mental
patient named Lawrence Myers (a.k.a.
Meyers), who is also a one-time writer
for Media Bypass magazine.
Myers--an author of books on bomb-
making, and one of the few journalists
the government allowed to interview
accused Oklahoma City bomber Timothy
McVeigh--tried to extort $5,000 from a
former roommate who was homosexual,
according to California police reports
from 1985. These reports also say he
called up police, admitted to the
extortion, and said he would kill the
person anyway, even if the individual
paid the $5,000, because--Myers claimed
to police--the man deserved to die.
Myers told police he needed the money
to finance his campaign against
homosexuals and drug dealers in the
area.
The U.S. Attorney's office also
offered as witness against Hayes an FBI
Agent named David Keller, who claimed
that J. Orlin Grabbe and Charles Hayes
were probably the same person. This
false identification was used by U.S.
Magistrate Judge J. B. Johnson Jr. as a
basis for denying bail to Hayes. FBI
Agent Keller is said by defense
investigators to be a former member of
a gang called "The Outlaws," among
whom, gang members say, he used and
sold heroin while informing on them for
the FBI.
During the trial Hayes cited his
CIA background and testified to his
recent activities in conjunction with a
group of computer hackers called the
Fifth Column in probing government
corruption, including corruption of the
FBI and the Department of Justice.
But the Prosecution claimed Hayes
was "living in a fantasy world" and had
no credibility, by contrast to
government witnesses Lawrence Myers and
David Keller. To prove this, the
Prosecution introduced two letters from
the CIA which seemed to indicate Hayes
had never worked for them.
Now the Hayes' defense charges
these affidavits were false. Moreover,
the defense charges, government witness
Lawrence Myers had been previously
rejected as an FBI informant, noting
that "This rejection is significant,
considering that the FBI regularly
accepts drug dealers, con men and worse
as informants."
The following report from the
Associated Press is dated February 22,
1997.
Hayes seeks new murder-for-
hire trial
Says government used fake CIA
affidavits
LONDON, Ky.--A man
convicted of trying to have
his son killed says he should
get a new trial because the
government used fake CIA
affidavits against him.
Chuck Hayes of Pulaski
County filed his motion for a
new trial yesterday in U.S.
District Court. He also said
he should get a new trial
because prosecutors withheld
evidence that would have
discredited Lawrence Myers,
one of their key witnesses.
Hayes claims he is a
former CIA operative who
enjoyed playing mind games
with the FBI. He tried to
use that defense against a
charge he hired a hit man to
kill his son, with whom he
was engaged in an inheritance
battle.
But federal prosecutors
introduced affidavits at
trial in which the CIA denied
any association with Hayes.
The motion for a new trial
said the affidavits were
false, were never
authenticated and should not
have been admitted into
evidence.
"On the second day of
trial, one of the
government's own witnesses
talking about Mr. Hayes'
connection with the CIA, a
fact crucial to his defense,"
the motion said.
"The affidavits are
wrong, and the defense was
denied the opportunity to
prove they were false and did
not meet the authentication
and hearsay admission
requirements of the Federal
Rules of Evidence." Hayes
also claims the FBI didn't
use his fingerprints or
undercover name to find out
if he really worked for the
CIA.
As for Myers, a reporter
for an alternative magazine,
from Evansville, Ind., Hayes
said the jury should have
been allowed to hear about
how Myers was discharged from
the military for a mental
condition and how the FBI
refused to take him on as a
paid informant.
"Whatever they had, they
would not accept him and
their decision that he was
not reliable is additional
exculpatory evidence not
provided fully or in time for
use in preparing the defense
case for trial," the motion
said. "This rejection is
significant, considering that
the FBI regularly accepts
drug dealers, con men and
worse as informants."
Hayes is being held
without bond pending his
sentencing on May 2.
