Garrison Claims Verification Of Facts
New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison told the Times-Picayune his office has exchanged information with a foreign intelligence service that penetrated the Kennedy assassination operation. He said the foreign country, Europe based and allied with the United States, supplied detailed material supporting his claim that the CIA aided Kennedy's death. He noted a magazine article questioning his probe and described a broader, professional operation by the foreign agency that followed pre-existing forces used in the Dallas killing. The report says a local official spent a month with the foreign agency’s top personnel and an intermediary contacted Garrison about three to four months ago.
