Senate probes Vesco link to BNDD agents
A Senate subcommittee will question Thomas P. Richardson about possible ties between fugitive financier Robert L. Vesco and federal drug agents. Richardson, head of a Los Angeles brokerage, allegedly directed BNDD agents to search Vesco's New Jersey quarters for bugging devices and may have used agents on private missions. The session also covers the June 1972 Vesco incident and payments Richardson says he received from Vesco, while denying any Vesco-drug agency connection amid SEC and graft investigations.
