Speaker 1: Good morning, everybody. Corey used Bloody history. So we're going
Speaker 1: to continue on with this David Ferry file too. So basically,
Speaker 1: this document is a four hundred and fifty plus page
Speaker 1: compilation of other documents. And I don't know who assembled this.
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was the FBI or I
Speaker 1: don't know if it was Garrison's office, but it seems
Speaker 1: to have a compilation of FBI and Garrison documents in it,
Speaker 1: along with a lot of communications and stuff, a lot
Speaker 1: of the Eastern Airlines stuff, which we're still going to
Speaker 1: get to. So the Eastern Airline stuff, the Eastern Airlines
Speaker 1: did an investigation is David Ferry in late sixty two,
Speaker 1: early sixty three and then he's fired from Eastern Airlines
Speaker 1: and they did some of the most in depth research
Speaker 1: on David Ferry that you're ever gonna find, so good
Speaker 1: on them. But the first document we're going to start
Speaker 1: off with today is a letter from It appears to
Speaker 1: be from the Holy Catholic Apostolic Church, Sacred Congregation of
Speaker 1: the Consistory Patriarchy of Antioch, Government of India, Act twenty
Speaker 1: one of eighteen sixty a d Orthodox. It sounds like
Speaker 1: some CIA nonsense. Chancellor's Office, Province of North America, six
Speaker 1: oh three Cecil Avenue, Louisiana or Louisville, Kentucky, January nine
Speaker 1: sixty two. And he put ad which is funny, all right,
Speaker 1: Captain Griner, this is too, Captain Griner, Flight Commander, Eastern
Speaker 1: Airlines International Airport, New Orleans, Louisiana. Dear Sir, this office
Speaker 1: wishes to thank you for the information regarding the former
Speaker 1: pilot David William Ferry. This mistake on my part has
Speaker 1: and has caused me serious reflection upon my episcopate and churches.
Speaker 1: I consecrated him upon the recommendation of Archbishop John.
Speaker 2: J. S.
Speaker 1: Martin, or as of yesterday ex Archbishop as our Holy
Speaker 1: Snod degraded him and cast him out of the clergy
Speaker 1: in church in America. The same also was presented Fairy.
Speaker 1: Neither of them are in no way connected with our
Speaker 1: Holy Synod or churches. Please forward to this office the
Speaker 1: outcome of the case of Fairy that you said was
Speaker 1: being tried on the fourth of January. Thank you once
Speaker 1: again for your kind information in this matter. I am
Speaker 1: sincerely yours. Like these people didn't fucking know Jack Martin
Speaker 1: was a scammer when they I don't know what's the
Speaker 1: word bequeathed or I don't even know the fucking word.
Speaker 1: They anointed him Archbishop John Archbishop John J.
Speaker 2: S Martin.
Speaker 1: Jack Martin went by Archbishop John.
Speaker 2: All Right.
Speaker 1: Next letter, District Attorney, Parish of Orleans, State of Louisiana,
Speaker 1: handwritten notes for copies to be forwarded to certain people.
Speaker 1: November seventh, nineteen sixty two, Mister William Bell, Legal Department,
Speaker 1: Eastern Airlines. So we're going back to the District Attorney's
Speaker 1: involvement in the Eastern Airlines case. Dear mister Bell, in
Speaker 1: response to your request of November seven, sixty two, I
Speaker 1: have ascertained the status of the case is pending against
Speaker 1: David William Ferry in case number one seven one nine
Speaker 1: five to seven, Section eight. Ferry is charged with public
Speaker 1: intimidation of a state witness in a case pending against Ferry.
Speaker 1: In that case, Ferry was arigned on September twenty sixth,
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty one. However, the case was never sent to trial.
Speaker 1: On November fifth, nineteen sixty two, the complaining witness made
Speaker 1: an Affidavid requesting that charges be dismissed. The office has
Speaker 1: not yet made a decision with regard to that Affidavid.
Speaker 1: In case number one seven three eight nine one, Ferries
Speaker 1: charged with extortion on March thirteen, sixty two. The defendant
Speaker 1: was arraigned on November fifth, sixty two, complaining witness made
Speaker 1: an Affidavid he did not wish to prosecute the defendant.
Speaker 1: This office has not yet made a decision in regard
Speaker 1: to that Affidavid. The case will not come up in
Speaker 1: the normal course of the docket. Very truly yours, Jim Garrison.
Speaker 1: So this is probably one of the very few documented
Speaker 1: interactions of Garrison with David Ferry in regards to his case.
Speaker 1: That is, obviously the case was brought against multiple cases
Speaker 1: brought against Ferry, all of them he seemed to intimidate
Speaker 1: the witness and get the cases dropped. But here we
Speaker 1: have some acknowledgment from Jim Garrison of I don't want
Speaker 1: to say relationship, but the acknowledgment of the District Attorney's
Speaker 1: Office to David Ferry. All right, next one the heading
Speaker 1: it's YMCA hotel header, but above it typed is Jack Martin,
Speaker 1: thirty two East third Street, Morristown, New Jersey, Saturday, the
Speaker 1: twentieth of July nineteen sixty three, Honorable William Bell, Legal
Speaker 1: Council Attorney, Eastern Airlines, Miami International Airport, Miami, Florida. Dear my,
Speaker 1: dear mister Bell, after my telephone call in your conversation
Speaker 1: with it, says msgr Periods A messenger Brown, our friend
Speaker 1: in quotations David W. Ferry got Win into the storm brewing.
Speaker 1: It seems that Archbishop Marchena, who's about to be thrown
Speaker 1: to the wolves by the clergy of that church, in
Speaker 1: favor of its true primate, Archbishop Cyrus Augustine Starkey, phoned
Speaker 1: this guy Bishop hide in Washington and blew the whistle
Speaker 1: on things. Thus it was that fairy never made the
Speaker 1: scene as it were. It seems at Hyde, Marchena and
Speaker 1: some other people tried to take this church, the old
Speaker 1: Roman Catholic over, but it failed. According to the American
Speaker 1: Yearbook of Churches and other official sources, the true archbishop
Speaker 1: primate is the most Reverend Cirrus Augustine Starkey, to East
Speaker 1: third Street, Morristown, New Jersey. It seems after my alert
Speaker 1: to him Starkey, he sent in his apostolic legate, a
Speaker 1: father Mario who's down there in Kankakee now straightening things out,
Speaker 1: but good the very idea holding a synod to kick
Speaker 1: out the true head of things. The main instigator seemed
Speaker 1: to have been Ferry, who once offered Starky one thousand
Speaker 1: dollars if he'd ordain him Ferry Hide and this nigger
Speaker 1: Marchena now Grapevine has it that Bishop Hyde, who has
Speaker 1: valid Orthodox Holy orders Valette Line, may still try to
Speaker 1: again attempt to ordain an ordination of Ferry. There where
Speaker 1: Hyde now lives, Reverend George A. Hyde, sixteen fifty seven
Speaker 1: Park Road, Northwest, Washington, ten DC. I also have information
Speaker 1: that Hide is under observation of the police morals squad
Speaker 1: there in Washington. Moreover, he's been watched by the Evening.
Speaker 2: Star or newspaper there.
Speaker 1: If you put the heat to Hide with some of
Speaker 1: your bulldog ex fed investigators, Hyde will crack.
Speaker 2: He's weak, and.
Speaker 1: He may turn over some of Faerry's old letters to
Speaker 1: you as evidence. This guy, Joseph a Oster of Joe
Speaker 1: Oster and associates Audubon Building here in New Orleans, has
Speaker 1: copies of letters that I once talked Hide out of
Speaker 1: which were written by Faerry. Two hide requesting ordination. Since
Speaker 1: then fairy boosted that the anti the price must have
Speaker 1: been right or something. Your friend JS Martin signed Jack PS,
Speaker 1: I'll be at Starkey's house for a while after leaving here,
Speaker 1: so please, if you care write me there, Jack Martin,
Speaker 1: care of Starky, thirty two East third Street, Moorestown, New Jersey.
Speaker 1: You know some research you'll probably be done into this
Speaker 1: Starky guy pps. Are you any relation to William Dunstan Bell.
Speaker 1: Then at the bottom there's a handwritten note I had
Speaker 1: a long talk with looks like Roby and I can't
Speaker 1: read the Latin. Next word over lunch as I passed
Speaker 1: through DC this other day. All right, Then we have
Speaker 1: the envelope, but Jack Martin's address, care of Starkey. Next
Speaker 1: one handwritten notation Ferry, April third, nineteen sixty three. It's
Speaker 1: a letter to mister W. Glenn Harland. There is no
Speaker 1: real heading here. In the January thirty first, nineteen sixty
Speaker 1: three report from Southern Research Company, there is the following
Speaker 1: reference quote. As a result of direct contact by mail,
Speaker 1: a letter was received from mister Vernon D. Mckennink, MCA
Speaker 1: n I NCH American Vice Consul Naples, Italy, dated December seventeenth,
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty two. The following is quoted from the letter.
Speaker 1: According to the information available at the Consulate General of
Speaker 1: the Phoenix University no longer exists. It was formerly operated
Speaker 1: by a man by the name of Francesco Rojo Durangona,
Speaker 1: who also operated several other quote universities in Italy. The
Speaker 1: institution was not accredited and, according to the Italian authorities,
Speaker 1: conferred worthless academic titles as well as titles of honor,
Speaker 1: also of little value. Captain Ferry has taken the position
Speaker 1: that he has a PhD and a legitimate one. Therefore,
Speaker 1: we would appreciate your obtaining the original of this letter. Okay,
Speaker 1: so now we have a direct connection between David Ferry
Speaker 1: and the Italians via this Francesco Rosso derragona who's obviously
Speaker 1: a CIA connected scammer in Italy making worthless academic titles
Speaker 1: as well as titles of honor, also of little value.
Speaker 1: And that's from William G. Bell Junior. All right, next
Speaker 1: one kind of another minimal letter, no heading really May sixteenth,
Speaker 1: sixty one draft board number looks like thirty four, Cleveland, Ohio. Gentlemen,
Speaker 1: I the undersigned hereby certify that David William Ferry is
Speaker 1: registered as a divinity student at Saint Charles Seminary, Carta, Hena, Ohio.
Speaker 1: It looks like he has a leave of absence to
Speaker 1: attend Baldwin Wallace College and will be gone until till
Speaker 1: June tenth, nineteen forty one. So this is a very
Speaker 1: very old letter. Oh it was forty one, not sixty one.
Speaker 1: I see this see is that kind of blurry? So
Speaker 1: he was a student at Saint Charles who took a
Speaker 1: leave of absence to attend Baldwin Wallace College. That's kind
Speaker 1: of weird, isn't it. Don't you just normally leave a
Speaker 1: school to go to another, not just take a leave
Speaker 1: of absence?
Speaker 2: Odd? All right?
Speaker 1: Then we come to an arrest report New Orleans Police
Speaker 1: Department arrest report for mister Layton Martin's residents six three
Speaker 1: seven Laurel Street. Let me see if there's a date
Speaker 1: on this thing. Yes, eight thirty sixty one, so this
Speaker 1: is two years before the assassination charge. RS fourteen, Article
Speaker 1: one oh seven, Sections five and seven Vagrancy by loitering
Speaker 1: pending investigation of burglary hold for FBI. I want to
Speaker 1: just connected to the the Homa. No, that wasn't until August.
Speaker 1: I don't think the home of Burglary. I got to
Speaker 1: figure out what date that was. It was in sixty one.
Speaker 1: I don't remember the date though. This subject and Ceiling
Speaker 1: in Blackman, so Melvin Ceiling and Andrew Blackman were arrested
Speaker 1: with him. This subject and Ceiling in Blackman in nineteen
Speaker 1: sixty one Plymouth license TJ seven eight two three five
Speaker 1: park near shopping center in Lake Vista. The car belongs
Speaker 1: to Ceiling Leyton Martin's is second in command to one

Speaker 1: men in ceilings car to Arcachia Smith's residence at one
Speaker 1: twelve Egret a short while before being found by the
Speaker 1: shopping center by officers Lee and Ryan. Captain David Ferry
Speaker 1: is wanted for attempted theft of an airplane's that's it's
Speaker 1: a lot of information to put into a pc AFFI, David,
Speaker 1: which is what this is. Oh, it looks like we
Speaker 1: got Layton Martin's fingerprints here, fingerprint card. This is going
Speaker 1: to be a nightmare to read, all right, So then
Speaker 1: we have another. Okay, now we're onto the statement of
Speaker 1: Eric Michael Krusche, and so this is a little this
Speaker 1: is not really printed very well. It's going to be
Speaker 1: tough to get through. But Cruschet is a witness to
Speaker 1: the molestation of Was it Al Landry or Al share Me?
Speaker 2: I think both? Probably both.
Speaker 1: But we'll get through his statement and we'll see what
Speaker 1: he has to say.
Speaker 2: Statement.
Speaker 1: My name is Eric Crushe, and I, without threats or promise,
Speaker 1: make the following statement and will answer all questions asked
Speaker 1: of me, says up here at the top. He's a
Speaker 1: white male sixteen years of age. And this is an
Speaker 1: investigation relative to investigation of witness intimidation.
Speaker 2: Question.
Speaker 1: Can you explain what occurred while you were at work yesterday?
Speaker 1: So this is the day after the incident. It was
Speaker 1: about two fifteen pm August twenty third, nineteen sixty one.
Speaker 1: I was bringing some stock to the front of the
Speaker 1: store where I work and I saw Captain Ferry come
Speaker 1: walking to the cigarette counter. Captain Ferry came up to
Speaker 1: me and asked if I could bail him out. He
Speaker 1: told me, at first, you know you got me in trouble.
Speaker 1: I told him that I didn't know. He told me
Speaker 1: that he had seen his lawyer and that there was
Speaker 1: a way out without anybody getting hurt. I answered, yeah,
Speaker 1: me disappear, and he said that this could be arranged.
Speaker 1: I was working with mister Francis Puglia on the displays,
Speaker 1: and mister Ferry told me that he wanted me to
Speaker 1: meet this fellow who was with him. Ferry introduced this
Speaker 1: man as a Cuban who was supposed to go with
Speaker 1: me to Miami. He told me the man's name, but
Speaker 1: I didn't remember it. I went to throw some trash away.
Speaker 1: When I came back, Captain Faery was waiting an aisle
Speaker 1: number nine of the store. Captain Ferry had a slip
Speaker 1: of paper which was typed out. Captain Ferry wanted me
Speaker 1: to sign this paper, saying that everything I had said
Speaker 1: to the police was made out of anger toward him.
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry told me if I signed the slip of paper,
Speaker 1: I could name my ticket and get anything I wanted.
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry told me that if I didn't sign the paper,
Speaker 1: I was going to have a bunch of cubans after me.
Speaker 2: I signed the.
Speaker 1: Paper and I remembered seeing my name typed it in
Speaker 1: typed in. I signed it because I was afraid. Captain
Speaker 1: Ferry and this other man were in the store about
Speaker 1: forty five minutes from about two fifteen to three o'clock.
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry talked to me for about fifteen to twenty
Speaker 1: minutes of this time. About five minutes after three, I
Speaker 1: was going to the liquor store and I saw another
Speaker 1: man sitting in a green nineteen sixty ford parked on
Speaker 1: looks like Gaffen Avenue at the side of a Grun's
Speaker 1: drug store. It looked like the Captain's car. I didn't
Speaker 1: see Captain Ferry anymore until after five pm, when I
Speaker 1: knocked off. I went straight home and changed clothes and
Speaker 1: came back to the store to get some cigarettes. I
Speaker 1: noticed Captain Ferry parked in his car on the side
Speaker 1: of Grun's drug store and he was calling me over.
Speaker 1: Ferry was sitting in the car with the same person
Speaker 1: who was in the store earlier, with him. There was
Speaker 1: another guy in the car who looked like the one
Speaker 1: I saw earlier during the day. It should be Andrew Blackman.
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry asked me what I wanted from the Cubans
Speaker 1: and I said that I didn't know. He asked me
Speaker 1: a second time, and I asked him if a motorcycle
Speaker 1: was too much, and he said no. He told me
Speaker 1: that he would contact me again. He told me that
Speaker 1: he would like to take me down to meet mister
Speaker 1: Arcocia Smith next on Thursday, but I told him that
Speaker 1: I had to work today. He told me that he
Speaker 1: had to go pick up some things at the the
Speaker 1: Baulter building and had to rush When he wanted me
Speaker 1: to sign the paper, he told me that I was
Speaker 1: holding up his m ones and his bazoos Ucah's. Ferry
Speaker 1: told me that one of the Cubans with him was
Speaker 1: a paratrooper type that jumped in the first invasion of Cuba.
Speaker 1: Here we have a series of question and answers. Question,
Speaker 1: can you describe the car the man who was with
Speaker 1: Faerry in at the store. He was tall, he was
Speaker 1: dark complexed, and he had a short haircut. He had
Speaker 1: blue jeans on and he was husky could you you
Speaker 1: know it was probably Andrew Blackman, because remember the railroad
Speaker 1: man was like six foot two. He was super tall,
Speaker 1: right and black fairies inner circle, very tall guy. Could
Speaker 1: you identify this man if you saw him again?
Speaker 2: Yes? I could.
Speaker 1: Did you hear this man speak, yes, I don't remember
Speaker 1: if he had an accent. Did you hear the captain
Speaker 1: talk to this man? Yes, he spoke in English to him.
Speaker 1: Can you describe the boy in the car. He was
Speaker 1: about twenty years old, He had blonde hair, was about
Speaker 1: five eleven or six foot now he's prettalling that, and
Speaker 1: he had a fatigue cap on. He was wearing gray
Speaker 1: pants and a T shirt, a gray vest, long sleeve
Speaker 1: vest with four buttons on the bottom. He spoke with
Speaker 1: an accent, but I didn't identify the accent. He said
Speaker 1: that he had been here a week or two. How
Speaker 1: do you know what time it was when the captain
Speaker 1: came to see you at the store. I looked at
Speaker 1: the clock and it was about two fifteen. Did you
Speaker 1: tell anyone that Ferry came to see you. I went
Speaker 1: to mister al Landry's house and told him Fairy came
Speaker 1: to see me at the store. Mister Landry wanted to
Speaker 1: take me to the juvenile Bureau. I told him that
Speaker 1: I would rather wait until tomorrow. I also told my
Speaker 1: mother about it, and she told me to call the police.
Speaker 1: I told mister Landry to call the police in This
Speaker 1: is a statement true and correct to the best of
Speaker 1: your knowledge. Yes, Signed Eric Michael Cruchet. A statement taken
Speaker 1: in the presence of Patrolman Roland Fournier and Patrolman Charles J.
Speaker 1: O Nau type written and completed eleven fifty four am.
Speaker 1: Questions by Officer Fournier and Journe all Right next page.
Speaker 1: Contributing to the delinquency of a minor August fifth, sixty one.
Speaker 1: This is fairies looks like a rest sheet details. On
Speaker 1: Thursday morning, August twenty fourth, nineteen sixty one, investigating officers
Speaker 1: received a phone call from mister Alexander Landry, who stated
Speaker 1: that the juvenile Michael Crusche had come to his residence
Speaker 1: on the night of Wednesday, August twenty third, sixty one
Speaker 1: and told of being contacted by David Ferry. The boy
Speaker 1: told mister Landry that Ferry was trying to get him
Speaker 1: Cruche to drop the charges. Investigating officers immediately contacted Michael
Speaker 1: Cruche at his employers by phone. Cruchey stated that Ferry
Speaker 1: came to the store where he's employed at five five
Speaker 1: two three Saint Claude Avenue at two fifteen pm August
Speaker 1: twenty third, sixty one. According to Crushe, Ferry was with
Speaker 1: another person whom he introduced as Q Cuban who had
Speaker 1: jumped in the recent invasion of Cuba. Ferry, as Cruchey stated,
Speaker 1: asked them to sign a paper stating that he Krushey,
Speaker 1: had made the statement to the police out of anger
Speaker 1: for Captain Ferry. Crushey said also that Ferry told him
Speaker 1: that he would have to sign the paper or be
Speaker 1: dealt with by some Cubans. Krusche told investigating officers that
Speaker 1: he signed the paper shown him by Ferry because he
Speaker 1: was afraid. Cruchey said also that he had told told
Speaker 1: his parents about Ferry's visit to the store after he
Speaker 1: knocked off from work, and later that night he went
Speaker 1: to see mister Alexandra Landry about it. Cruchey stated that
Speaker 1: he asked mister Landry to notify investigating officers. On August
Speaker 1: twenty fourth, nineteen sixty one, investigating officers went to Puglia
Speaker 1: Supermarket where Krusche is employed, and a full type written
Speaker 1: statement was taken from him relative to the visit made
Speaker 1: by Faerry. This statement will better explain the occurrence, which
Speaker 1: also describes a subject with Ferry and another who was
Speaker 1: sitting outside the store in Fairy's car. Cruche thought that
Speaker 1: one of the unknown subjects was a man by the
Speaker 1: name of Andrew. Crucher stated that Ferry, stated in the store,
Speaker 1: stayed in the store from two fifteen till about three
Speaker 1: and later when he knocked off, Ferry was waiting outside
Speaker 1: in his car. Investigating officers spoke with mister George J.
Speaker 1: Pugliat Junior of fifty five twenty three, Saint Claude Avenue.
Speaker 2: Owner of the grocery store.
Speaker 1: Mister Puglia stated that after lunch at approximately two thirty pm,
Speaker 1: he noticed two men speaking with Cruche in the store.
Speaker 1: Mister Puglia identified one of the subjects as having painted
Speaker 1: eyebrows and was losing his hair, which very well fits
Speaker 1: Dave Ferry. Mister Puglia identified the other subjects as being
Speaker 1: about twenty years old and tall. Investigating officers spoke with
Speaker 1: mister Francis Puglia of five five to two three Saint Claude,
Speaker 1: who stated that at approximately two thirty pm, two men
Speaker 1: came into the store and were talking with Cruche. Mister
Speaker 1: Puglia described one of the subjects as having spotty hair
Speaker 1: which was falling out out in about six foot tall.
Speaker 1: This description given by officers by officers by mister Francis
Speaker 1: Puglia certainly appears to be Faerry. Mister Francis Puglia stated
Speaker 1: also that this subject has painted eyebrows and told of
Speaker 1: another subject who was with the subject with the painted eyebrows,
Speaker 1: but could not identify him too well. Investigating officers returned
Speaker 1: to the Juvenile Bureau and notified immigration authorities. Inspector Underwood
Speaker 1: came to the bureau and was given all the information
Speaker 1: in this matter. Inspector Underwood stated that he knew Arcatca
Speaker 1: Smith and that Smith was an American citizen, and that
Speaker 1: there was nothing his organization could do. At one oh
Speaker 1: five pm, August twenty fourth, sixty one, investigative officers received
Speaker 1: another call from Cruchet, who stated David Ferry had come
Speaker 1: to see him again. Cruche stated Ferry and another subject
Speaker 1: had just left him after getting him to sign another paper.
Speaker 1: Officers drove immediately to the Baalter building in an effort
Speaker 1: to catch Ferry, but after one hour he failed to
Speaker 1: show up. Officers returned to the Juvenile Bureau and called
Speaker 1: Cruche by phone and have him explained Fairy's second visit,
Speaker 1: Cruchey stated that he signed something that had the phrase
Speaker 1: drop all charges in it. Ferry told Cruche that if
Speaker 1: he signed the statement that it would keep him Cruche
Speaker 1: out of trouble. Cruchey stated that Ferry had someone with
Speaker 1: him with dark hair and believed his name was Andrew
Speaker 1: Andrew Blackman. This unidentified subject was the same one who
Speaker 1: would come into the store with Ferry the day before,
Speaker 1: according to Cruche. Cruchey stated also that it was about
Speaker 1: twelve forty pm and he was coming from lunch when
Speaker 1: he saw Ferry parked by Kusamano's restaurant on Saint Claude
Speaker 1: Avenue near Puglia's Supermarket, and it in a parking lot
Speaker 1: near a liquor store. Ferry Ferry told Cruchet on this
Speaker 1: second visit that he Ferry wanted Cruche to meet Arcacia Smith.
Speaker 1: According to Cruche, Ferry told him that he could have
Speaker 1: anything he wanted for signing the paper. Ferry also told
Speaker 1: Cruche on the second visit that if he wanted he
Speaker 1: Ferry could arrange to get him Cruchet out of town.
Speaker 1: At three pm, investigating officers received a call from mister Landry,
Speaker 1: who stated that he received a phone call from a
Speaker 1: subject who identified himself as Michael McCloy, a friend of
Speaker 1: his son from Houston, Texas. Mister Landry stated that McCloy
Speaker 1: was coming to his house. Officers called mister Landry on
Speaker 1: the morning of August twenty fifth, sixty one, but learned
Speaker 1: that McCloy did not show up. On the night of
Speaker 1: August twenty fourth, nineteen sixty one, Officers Officer Janeau received
Speaker 1: a telephone call from Chief Warrant Officer C. R. Nolton
Speaker 1: from Camp Leroy Johnson, who stated that to his knowledge,
Speaker 1: the charter held by Ferry was forged. Knowlton stated that
Speaker 1: he checked with the national headquarters in Houston, Texas, and
Speaker 1: found that there was no charter issued for the Metarie
Speaker 1: Falcon Squadron. Officer Nolton stated that he had received a
Speaker 1: number of calls from parents inquiring of the Medie Falcon Squadron.
Speaker 1: Investigating Officer Jenea called Major Christian, who was the commander
Speaker 1: of the Civil Air Patrol in New Orleans. Major Christian
Speaker 1: stated that Ferry was at one time, I'm quietly removed
Speaker 1: from the New Orleans Cadet Squadron of the CP. Agent
Speaker 1: Stuart Sheer of the FBI was notified of the current information. Interesting.
Speaker 1: So it's kind of interesting that there was so much
Speaker 1: heat on David Ferry from mid sixty one at the earliest,
Speaker 1: or at the latest I would say, all the way
Speaker 1: through early sixty three and then jumping to the assassination
Speaker 1: in November. So he only had about a six month
Speaker 1: reprieve from the District Attorney's office by the time he
Speaker 1: gets pulled back in. So yeah, the relationship. They must
Speaker 1: have known David Ferry very very well at the District
Speaker 1: Attorney's office. There was no way they couldn't have. So
Speaker 1: next we come upon the testimony of Guy Banister by
Speaker 1: mister gild must have been Graegill, and it just jumps
Speaker 1: right into a bunch of questions. Must be some kind
Speaker 1: of deposition or something. Question by mister Gill, what is
Speaker 1: your name, Guy Banister? Where do you reside? Seven h
Speaker 1: five nine are gone, New Orleans Louisiana. What is your profession.
Speaker 1: I'm an investigator and a criminologist. Have you had any
Speaker 1: special training in these fields? Yes, I've attended numerous FBI
Speaker 1: schools and other courses. I've been on the faculty of
Speaker 1: several universities. Have you ever been a member of the FBI. Yes,
Speaker 1: I was a special agent in charge. What is a
Speaker 1: special agent in charge? A special agent in charge bears
Speaker 1: the relationship to other agents as a general to his
Speaker 1: private soldiers. Are you acquainted with Captain Ferry?
Speaker 2: Yes? I am.
Speaker 1: How'd you first become acquainted with Captain Ferry? I was
Speaker 1: retained first by him and then by others to investigate
Speaker 1: the criminal charges made against him. Later, I was to
Speaker 1: investigate the charges made by Eastern Airlines. Okay, so here's
Speaker 1: here's what I'm trying to figure out this. We're talking
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty one, this time period when he would have
Speaker 1: been acquainted with Ferry. When do we conclude that was
Speaker 1: in sixty one? Was it early sixty one? I think
Speaker 1: it was pretty early sixty one. It was like between
Speaker 1: March and May, right, so it was like summertime sixty one.
Speaker 1: This is or it would appear from what We've been
Speaker 1: told by a liar that Carrie Thornley is back and
Speaker 1: he's in the company a guy banister. I think by
Speaker 1: late sixty one. I think around October. I think that's
Speaker 1: what he told Garrison. Where does Carrie Thornley fit into
Speaker 1: any of this stuff at this time? Since he's back
Speaker 1: in New Orleans, he's already worked for the foster On
Speaker 1: in company. He should have already met what's his face,
Speaker 1: brother in law and the other fucking JABBRONI right, So, yeah,
Speaker 1: what's the relationship between Kerry Thornley and this crew as
Speaker 1: of this time? That's a big question.
Speaker 2: I have in my mind.
Speaker 1: All right, So onto page two, I further learned the
Speaker 1: oh oh my ad Okay, here we go.
Speaker 2: I'll back up a little bit.
Speaker 1: Would you please enumerate the charges from whatever source that
Speaker 1: you investigated. First, I investigated the criminal charges. I reviewed
Speaker 1: the file of the district attorney. I found they had
Speaker 1: no case, and so informed them. I found that Eric
Speaker 1: Cruche was not a stable individual and was the type
Speaker 1: who would frighten easily under those circumstances do anything he
Speaker 1: was told. I've spoken with him on numerous occasions. He
Speaker 1: insists charges of crimes against nature are false, all right,
Speaker 1: So you got Banister recovering for Fairy already, and this
Speaker 1: is in what late sixty two or early sixty three.
Speaker 1: I further learned that the instigator of these charges was
Speaker 1: Then it's all blurry. Conveniently, it looks like it says otis,
Speaker 1: And I can't read the next name, and some name
Speaker 1: that ends with a YV.
Speaker 2: Perhaps I can't. I can't tell. It's just all blurt out.
Speaker 1: Previously she had charged a YMCA supervisor in some matter. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we're talking about some woman.
Speaker 2: So I don't know. I don't know what. I don't
Speaker 2: know who he's talking about.
Speaker 1: Then she allegedly broke up a boy Scout troop, as
Speaker 1: far as I can find out, Next in line was
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry. Now, strangely enough, the name Missus Landry appears
Speaker 1: in these charges against one John Cater. John Cater is
Speaker 1: an associated Clayshaw behind Missus Landry. There was most certainly
Speaker 1: the influence of communism. The tactic of the communists is
Speaker 1: a big smear and attempt to place a moral turpitude
Speaker 1: label on those they wished to get. The district attorney
Speaker 1: who kicked these matters.
Speaker 2: Off is no longer in office.
Speaker 1: However, he and his executive assistant have held numerous memberships
Speaker 1: in organizations identified by the Congress as communist fronts. You see,
Speaker 1: by accident, Captain Ferry stumbled onto something big and the
Speaker 1: Communists were doing in this port city of New Orleans.
Speaker 1: In his patriotism, he meant to stop it. These charges
Speaker 1: resulted uh huh, total bullshit. I went into the matter
Speaker 1: of the so called intimidation of a witness charge and
Speaker 1: the extortion charge Cruche and Cater. The two state witnesses
Speaker 1: claimed this never happened. Both persons insist that no such
Speaker 1: acts occurred, no such crimes were committed, and that they
Speaker 1: made no such charges. Likewise, I went into Eastern's charges
Speaker 1: that Captain Ferry made false statements in his employment application.
Speaker 1: These allegations proved utterly absurd. I found no employment at
Speaker 1: Rocky River High School as charged. I found Rocky River
Speaker 1: High School. Um, that's one that should probably be looked into.
Speaker 1: Rocky River High School probably in Cleveland, Ohio, that should
Speaker 1: be looked into. I found Ferry left the seminary over
Speaker 1: a theological disagreement. I found no evidence of mental or
Speaker 1: emotional problems. The charges of an unauthorized cap unit were ridiculous.
Speaker 1: There never was such an organization as the Omnipotence. Someone
Speaker 1: simply fabricated this. Fairy's abilities as a research psychologist are
Speaker 1: generally recognized. I could find no connection, as Eastern calls it,
Speaker 1: between Ferry and the so called Schereme case, which was
Speaker 1: never a case at all. So here it says I
Speaker 1: could find no connection, as Eastern calls it, between Ferry
Speaker 1: and the so called Charme case. You have a double
Speaker 1: line and an asterisk, and then the notes rite Herald.
Speaker 1: I don't know what that means, as in like write
Speaker 1: a letter, write Herald. Ferry is a member of the
Speaker 1: Catholic Church in good standing and has never been excommunicated.
Speaker 1: The American Medical Association never heard of him, much less
Speaker 1: warned him to stop practicing medicine. He did, contrary with
Speaker 1: Eastern's report, deliver a speech before the.
Speaker 2: Who.
Speaker 1: It doesn't say, it cuts off, and then it says,
Speaker 1: and was well received. Have you found any evidence of
Speaker 1: moral turpitude in Captain Ferry? No, after the most exhaustive search.
Speaker 1: Have other persons been interviewed in connection with this case
Speaker 1: and in regard to moral turpitude. Yes, kindly enumerate them
Speaker 1: and tell what you have learned. Mister and Missus Barton,
Speaker 1: Saint Thomas Street, Gretna, Mister and Missus Finley, Shirley Drive,
Speaker 1: New Orleans, Missus Alameda, Hudson, Vinet Street, Janice Walder of
Speaker 1: Loyal University, Missus wigand Robert E. Lee Building, New Orleans,
Speaker 1: Missus Martin's Nashville Street, New Orleans. Lawrence Marsh Transcontinental Drive,
Speaker 1: New Orleans, Johnny Johnson, Saint Thomas Street, Leyton Martin's Lafayette, Louisiana.
Speaker 1: Catherine Carter, a nurse, John Campbell, Loyola University, New Orleans.
Speaker 1: Reverend Father Mackeen formerly Our Lady Perpetual Help, Reverend Father
Speaker 1: John Mulayhy Loyola University, and Reverend Father are johnia Now
Speaker 1: of Raceland, Louisiana, and every one of these persons interviewed
Speaker 1: regarding Captain Ferry as just honest, trustworthy, highly moral, religious,
Speaker 1: and in general a credit to himself, his community, as airline,
Speaker 1: and his profession. This list could go on and on.
Speaker 1: It is only a partial list of those interviewed. Some
Speaker 1: of these names should be Withhell at this time in
Speaker 1: case this matter goes to the federal courts. Is there
Speaker 1: any labor problem involved in this case? A certain information
Speaker 1: suggests this possibility. It seems that Eastern Airlines and American
Speaker 1: Airlines have been attempt a merger. American is allegedly sponsoring
Speaker 1: an allied pilot's association in an attempt to break ALPA on.
Speaker 1: American reports indicate that similar moves are underway on Eastern
Speaker 1: looking forward towards this merger. In this case, it is
Speaker 1: reported Eastern is attempting to introduce a moral turpitude standard,
Speaker 1: whereby a precedent will be set. If they win this case,
Speaker 1: then the door is open to fire pilots almost at will.
Speaker 1: A traffic violation will then become moral turpitude. For you
Speaker 1: see the precedent in this case as an attempt to
Speaker 1: establish the principle that what a pilot does in his
Speaker 1: own time off the company property is the company's business.
Speaker 1: Reports indicate that in Captain Ferry's case, if the company
Speaker 1: can successfully discharge him, a precedent will be established. Then
Speaker 1: the company can fire a man who gets the traffic ticket.
Speaker 1: There is nothing to stop them. Would you supply proofs
Speaker 1: of what you have just said at this time, I
Speaker 1: feel that it would be against Captain Ferry's best interest
Speaker 1: to reveal the sources of my information. Certain reports about
Speaker 1: Eastern's tactics in this case suggest considerable caution and discretion
Speaker 1: in revealing information. Have you investigated the matter of Eastern's
Speaker 1: standard of conduct which is expects which it expects of
Speaker 1: its employees?
Speaker 2: Yes? I have.
Speaker 1: Would you outline or describe that so called standard of conduct.
Speaker 2: That?
Speaker 1: It's very difficult to do. Nowhere can I find that
Speaker 1: Eastern has ever established a standard of conduct. There are
Speaker 1: no publications showing this, there are no contractual provisions to
Speaker 1: show it. However, if you consider what Eastern seems to
Speaker 1: condone in its personnel, then such a standard might be inferred.
Speaker 1: Would you outline the conduct that Eastern seems to condone,
Speaker 1: As you say, it would be very unwise and perhaps
Speaker 1: unecessary to do this, since it might mean dragging other
Speaker 1: people's lives into the open, when that might not have
Speaker 1: to be done. We certainly do not want to hurt
Speaker 1: anyone in this case. It is possible to reveal acts
Speaker 1: or patterns of doing or conduct without disclosing names or
Speaker 1: giving such information that might enable someone to readily identify
Speaker 1: these people. Yes, I think it can be done in
Speaker 1: this way. I have a report of a pilot who
Speaker 1: was prominent who carried pornographic films across state lines in
Speaker 1: an Eastern airplane. He had a showing of these films
Speaker 1: for other pilots and his superiors knew about it. There
Speaker 1: are reports of sexual intercourse between pilots and stewardesses on
Speaker 1: board the aircraft while in flight, cruising or climbing flight.
Speaker 1: This in some cases as part of a so called
Speaker 1: mile high club. There are company officials who are married
Speaker 1: who are philandering and have relations with other company personnel
Speaker 1: where this has been generally talked about for years. There
Speaker 1: are crimes or acts I should say against nature. There
Speaker 1: is improper handling of power settings. There's a case of
Speaker 1: a prominent pilots on an overseas run using meto power
Speaker 1: until it reached cruising altitude. This involved DC seven aircraft.
Speaker 1: There are reports of widespread petty smuggling across national boundaries.
Speaker 1: There are public displays in hotel lobbies, such as pilot
Speaker 1: down on all fours biting a stewardess in the buttocks.
Speaker 1: There are reports of a group of pilots participating in
Speaker 1: land deals where illegal transferring of funds from one account
Speaker 1: to another takes place or had to take place to
Speaker 1: confect the transactions. There are reports from hotels in several
Speaker 1: cities where pilots lay over unbecoming and or immoral activities.
Speaker 1: There aren't numerous reports of horseplay in the cockpits, including
Speaker 1: the finding of some captains who had the stewardesses on
Speaker 1: their laps in flight while passengers were aboard. There are
Speaker 1: even reports of violations of the kidnap laws by company
Speaker 1: officials or agents while on company business. The reports show
Speaker 1: that these things enumerated are either known to company officials
Speaker 1: or have been reports to company officials, and that the
Speaker 1: personnel involved were never sanctioned or disciplined. Hence, I can
Speaker 1: only conclude that the foregoing represents an indication of Eastern's
Speaker 1: standard of conduct for its employees. Have you found where
Speaker 1: Captain Fairy has ever in any way engaged in any
Speaker 1: of the activity as you described, As far as it
Speaker 1: is humanly possible to investigate, Captain Fairy has never participated
Speaker 1: in any other things described. How would you define moral turpitude?
Speaker 1: It is any intentional act. I repeat the word intentional
Speaker 1: against justice, honesty.
Speaker 2: Or good morals?
Speaker 1: Which acts are in themselves unjust, dishonest, or immoral? Have
Speaker 1: you investigated Captain Fairies's life, background and conduct in regards
Speaker 1: to moral turpitude?
Speaker 2: Yes? I have?
Speaker 1: What did you find? Captain Fairy is not guilty of
Speaker 1: moral turpitude? Have you have examined Captain Fairy's reputation in
Speaker 1: the community have you not?
Speaker 2: Yes? I have? What'd you find?
Speaker 1: I find he has the highest of reputations for his life,
Speaker 1: his philosophy, and his conduct. He has brought respect to
Speaker 1: the airline pilot profession. How does he bring respect to
Speaker 1: his profession such things as his learning, his abilities, and
Speaker 1: his civic interest? A lot of people think of airline
Speaker 1: pilots as harem scarem people obsessed with sex, salary, and seniority.
Speaker 1: Captain Ferry has set the lie.
Speaker 2: To this notion.
Speaker 1: All right, then that cuts off right there. I'm sure
Speaker 1: there's more, but that's all we're deemed worthy of receiving
Speaker 1: from the document. Gods, All right, what's the next one?
Speaker 2: Next one?
Speaker 1: We got three point thirty one aftert in drive Metaie, Louisiana,
Speaker 1: October thirty sixty one, probably a letter from Dave Ferry himself,
Speaker 1: because that's his old address. Let me check and verify this.
Speaker 1: We got a very long, very long letter here. But
Speaker 1: we'll read through this letter and then we'll call it
Speaker 1: a day. This thing's going to take a little bit
Speaker 1: to get through, so to Captain G. E. Griner, Manager
Speaker 1: Operations Eastern Airlines, Inc. Moissant Airport, New Orleans, Louisiana. Dear
Speaker 1: Captain Griner, this letter is written in response to your
Speaker 1: letters addressed to me dated October nineteenth. My attorney, mister Graffanino,
Speaker 1: has not informed me of your request for a written
Speaker 1: report and edition to the verbal information given during the
Speaker 1: discussion between mister Grafanimo Graffanino signor Arcaca, yourself and me.
Speaker 1: You require quote, a plausible explanation of the incidents that
Speaker 1: led to the filing of serious criminal charges against me.
Speaker 1: Since I have no idea what you consider plausible, there's
Speaker 1: no way of evaluating this letter prior to its being forwarded.
Speaker 2: I'll submit the facts as they are.
Speaker 1: We have in hand indisputable proof for the facts cited
Speaker 1: herein for the composition of this letter, reports of the
Speaker 1: reputable detectives have been employed since your letter infers you
Speaker 1: require a chronological sequence. I shall list these events chronologically.
Speaker 1: I must add one caution, However, the very nature of
Speaker 1: some of the information contained herein has given me considerable
Speaker 1: pause in whether I should respond to your request for information.
Speaker 1: First of all, I know of no crime violation of
Speaker 1: working agreement or company rule, which is violated when one
Speaker 1: individual makes a charge against another. Proven charges are another thing.
Speaker 1: It is my opinion that it is not the business
Speaker 1: of Eastern Airlines that someone should make charges against me.
Speaker 1: It is another thing if they see charges are proven
Speaker 1: to be true in a court of law. In the
Speaker 1: second place, the revelation of this information to you contains
Speaker 1: a serious potential threat to my safety, as a subsequent
Speaker 1: paragraph will reveal, I shall therefore hold you personally responsible
Speaker 1: if some of the information is divulged, since my personal
Speaker 1: safety is involved. It is my belief that the chronology
Speaker 1: begins in nineteen fifty nine. During the summer of nineteen
Speaker 1: fifty nine, I received my first anonymous threatening telephone call.
Speaker 1: At this time, positive information had come into my hands
Speaker 1: that Fidel Castro was a communist, and that this was
Speaker 1: known in the State Department prior to the action of
Speaker 1: the US government forcing Batista Adud of office. Also, at
Speaker 1: this time, I was laboring to prevent the admission in
Speaker 1: the US Air Force Academy of a candidate whose views
Speaker 1: as well as those of his family were anti American,
Speaker 1: since he indicated he had no intention of supporting Amendment fourteen,
Speaker 1: Section one of the US Constitution. From that date until
Speaker 1: the present, at two fifteen PM this date, these telephone
Speaker 1: calls have continued. In some of these telephone calls, I've
Speaker 1: been addressed obscenely on some occasions as a nigger lover,
Speaker 1: a radical, a communist, an atheist, a religious fanatic, and
Speaker 1: so on. On other occasion's polite, well modulated voices have tried
Speaker 1: to dissuade me from my activities and in particular, my
Speaker 1: speeches against those persons and forces I deem subversive through
Speaker 1: all these telephone calls. Though all these telephone calls have
Speaker 1: been anonymous, the identity of one of the voices has
Speaker 1: been established. On other occasions, I receive silent telephone calls.
Speaker 1: That is, when we answer a call, no response is
Speaker 1: made by the caller, who, after a short interval, hangs
Speaker 1: up or otherwise breaks the connection. It became apparent that
Speaker 1: acting as a loan individual, I could accomplish little, whereas
Speaker 1: with affiliation with a similar minded group I might have
Speaker 1: accomplished much more. Therefore, I pursued several related problems. One
Speaker 1: why did certain top officials deliberately cause the April seventeenth
Speaker 1: invasion of Cuba to fail?
Speaker 2: Aha?
Speaker 1: Why did certain top officials deliberately cause the April seventeenth
Speaker 1: invasion of Cuba to fail? He's probably talking about Kennedy,
Speaker 1: but I don't buy that at all. Who is permitting
Speaker 1: millions of pieces of communist literature to pass through the
Speaker 1: New Orleans post offices at government expense, the purpose of
Speaker 1: which literature is prejudicial to the United States. Who is
Speaker 1: permitting describe trade with Cuba to continue, which also involves a.
Speaker 2: Further drain on gold reserves.
Speaker 1: Why are certain communists who enjoy high level positions in
Speaker 1: local government permitted to continue their activities against the United States?
Speaker 1: Why are certain known communists allowed to continue dictating the
Speaker 1: placing of subversive textbooks in public and private schools. Why
Speaker 1: are certain persons in sensitive jobs, for example, scheduled airlines
Speaker 1: permitted to continue subversive activities In a less generalized area.
Speaker 1: I've been concerned with the problem of communist Cuba and
Speaker 1: the ramifications. I've been assisting in bringing Cuban refugees to
Speaker 1: the United States and in obtaining necessities, including medical care
Speaker 1: for them. I have likewise in activities approved of and
Speaker 1: encouraged by the President of the United States and his
Speaker 1: Attorney General, helping to raise arms for the liberation of Cuba,
Speaker 1: such as both the right and duty of every American
Speaker 1: not to be gainsaid by anyone. The intensification of these
Speaker 1: anti communist activities, more talks have been given then heretofore,
Speaker 1: radio and TV shows and propaganda disseminated. Greater efforts have
Speaker 1: been expended to collect necessary funds to raise arms. In
Speaker 1: the course of this I was threatened with a lawsuit
Speaker 1: by a New Orleans attorney. The suit was dropped when
Speaker 1: he learned of the nature of the proofs of his
Speaker 1: subversive activities. During the month of August, three persons associated
Speaker 1: with this work were arrested by a particular New Orleans policeman.
Speaker 1: We've been unable to learn what they were charged with.
Speaker 1: They were held in communicado for four days. During this time,
Speaker 1: they were also maltreated. Their arrest and detention was illegal
Speaker 1: not only from the point of view of the state law,
Speaker 1: but of federal law. In the course of their interrogations,
Speaker 1: one a police officials tried to extract a commitment from
Speaker 1: these individuals that they would desist in their activities to
Speaker 1: assist Cubans. One of the officers stated that his objective
Speaker 1: was to put Arcacia and Ferry in jail. In pursuance
Speaker 1: of this objective, these three were interrogated to produce evidence
Speaker 1: against me of one stealing an airplane, to participating in
Speaker 1: acts treasoness to the United States, three dealing in contraband,
Speaker 1: four committing forgery, five illegally dealing in arms. Subsequent to this,
Speaker 1: the New Orleans police came to my home to search it,
Speaker 1: claiming they possessed a valid search warrant. They refused to
Speaker 1: produce this warrant and refused to divulge the quest of
Speaker 1: the search. These acts are in clear violation of the law.
Speaker 1: They returned a second time, did not even claim to
Speaker 1: possess a warrant, but stated they were searching for narcotics.
Speaker 1: They returned a third time to search, but did not search,
Speaker 1: but engaged in a day long harassment of my mother
Speaker 1: and my guests.
Speaker 2: And myself.
Speaker 1: During the same time, I was taken to the East
Speaker 1: Bank Jail, Jefferson Parish and interrogated relative to harboring a
Speaker 1: runaway New Orleans juvenile. Since it developed I had nothing
Speaker 1: to do with it, I was released. Then I was
Speaker 1: arrested for a crime against nature allegedly committed with a
Speaker 1: New Orleans minor. I was held in communicado until a
Speaker 1: friendly bondsman learned of my plight and bailed me out
Speaker 1: and summer mister Graffanino, whom I had not known prior
Speaker 1: to this time. At the time of the arrest, the
Speaker 1: police refused to divulge the charge. When I finally learned
Speaker 1: of the charge and person allegedly making it, I took
Speaker 1: two witnesses and confronted the said New Orleans miner. He
Speaker 1: admitted that he made the charges, but he insisted to
Speaker 1: myself in a witness, that he had been compelled to
Speaker 1: sign these charges or face a jail term. Thereafter, he
Speaker 1: signed a statement exonerating me and indicating how he came
Speaker 1: to sign them. The following day, he came of his
Speaker 1: own volition and signed a second statement to New Orleans
Speaker 1: authorities were apprized of this Thereupon, one of these same
Speaker 1: policemen returned.
Speaker 2: To the New Orleans juvenile.
Speaker 1: And compelled him to sign a second statement stating that
Speaker 1: he had been intimidated by me, and the same police
Speaker 1: claimed to be able to produce eight witnesses to the intimidation.
Speaker 1: The New Orleans miner has now apparently disappeared, since the
Speaker 1: Jefferson Parish District Attorney's office has been unable to locate him.
Speaker 1: During this time, it was learned that my telephone was
Speaker 1: tapped the telephone company and the government was notified. The
Speaker 1: tap wire was found, but it had been cut so
Speaker 1: that the source of the receiving apparatus could not be ascertained. Recently,
Speaker 1: a second tap occurred. On October twenty fourth. My brother,
Speaker 1: who lives and works in the North, had pressure applied
Speaker 1: to him. One of the officials of his company summoned
Speaker 1: him and threatened his job unless it could be ascertained
Speaker 1: that our family had no further connection with any activity
Speaker 1: involving the liberation of Cuba or other activities resisting Communist
Speaker 1: takeover in the Caribbean area. Two other events occurred, which
Speaker 1: will not be discussed here at this time. All the
Speaker 1: foregoing has been climaxed by an extortion attempt, the revelation
Speaker 1: of which is dangerous to my safety. I've been told
Speaker 1: that everything will be forgotten if one I pay over
Speaker 1: a substantial sum of money, two leave the state of Louisiana,
Speaker 1: and three keep this offer a strict secret or else
Speaker 1: for obvious reasons, this cannot reported to local police and
Speaker 1: will not be reported. However, it has been reported to
Speaker 1: federal authorities, for whatever action they can take. At this time,
Speaker 1: we do not know the chain of command of the
Speaker 1: communists at.
Speaker 2: The local level.
Speaker 1: However, my problem has been traced with certainty to a
Speaker 1: highly placed local official. We have positive evidence that this
Speaker 1: official is a communist and has been in charge of
Speaker 1: some highly important communistic activities involving the protection of the
Speaker 1: communists in the area. Whether communists within Eastern airlines are involved.
Speaker 2: In this is not known at this time.
Speaker 1: There are several points about which our curiosity is deepening.
Speaker 1: We are wondering about the legality of my suspension from flying.
Speaker 1: We are curious about your statement to mister Graffanino, signor
Speaker 1: Arcacca and myself that someone in authority over you has
Speaker 1: indicated that my activities regarding Cuba be stopped. We are
Speaker 1: curious about your implication that Eastern has piled up other
Speaker 1: things against me. I understand from Alpa that it is
Speaker 1: an Eastern practice to try to accumulate a file to
Speaker 1: be used against an individual it suits the company as
Speaker 1: it suits the company. Likewise, we are wondering whether the
Speaker 1: public interest would be better served if we release the
Speaker 1: names of communists and fellow travelers employed by Eastern Airlines.
Speaker 1: Beyond yourself, no one knows of the composition of the letter,
Speaker 1: including mister Graffanino. I have prepared only a file copy,
Speaker 1: which is secured in a strong box with certain other
Speaker 1: pertinent documents, as indicated in paragraph four, page one. I
Speaker 1: shall hold you personally responsible if information is released by
Speaker 1: you to my harm. In particular, I am referring to
Speaker 1: paragraph three of this page. Be assured that civil suits
Speaker 1: are in preparation, and possibly more will be prepared against
Speaker 1: any and every individual, organization, and or group responsible in
Speaker 1: any way for any damages that have occurred to me
Speaker 1: during this affair. Very truly, David W. Ferry, Yeah, you
Speaker 1: shouldn't buy any of that. David Faery is pedophile. There
Speaker 1: are some gruesome details about his actual molestation of these kids.
Speaker 1: I think I don't know if I skipped over him
Speaker 1: or we did him in the last batch of David
Speaker 1: Fairy stuff years ago, or if they're coming up, they
Speaker 1: should be coming up. If not, I'll find them for
Speaker 1: one of the episodes. But David Ferry is a total
Speaker 1: fucking's gone bad, well known to the District Attorney's office. Yes,
Speaker 1: he engaged in acts of moral turpitude, and just to
Speaker 1: see guy Banister so adamantly defending him just goes to
Speaker 1: show how entrenched the relationship was between Fairy and Banister,
Speaker 1: and then obviously Fairy and Shaw, so obviously Banister in
Speaker 1: Shaw as well.
Speaker 2: And where does Oswald fit into any of this?
Speaker 1: Nowhere, not a single fucking anywhere, not at all, Zilchnada.
Speaker 1: So that's gonna do it for me today. Guys, if
Speaker 1: you haven't picked up my books yet, please do so.
Speaker 2: They're on Amazon. They're really good.
Speaker 1: And Friday night I'll be doing a show with Drew Treglia,
Speaker 1: who made the Jones Plantation. We're gonna be watching Death
Speaker 1: Wish one Charles Bronson and I think that'll be out
Speaker 1: on Saturday.
Speaker 2: So that's what I got coming up.
Speaker 1: It's gonna do it for me, guys, and I will
Speaker 1: be back tomorrow with more thanks
