Scores of FBI agents protest indictment of former colleague
Dozens of letters and telegrams to President Carter and the Senate Judiciary Committee protest the indictment of John J. Kearney, a retired FBI supervisor in New York, on charges of illegal wiretapping mail opening and conspiracy. Agents defend his 1970s surveillance tied to Weatherman. The protests follow questions raised at a Senate appropriations hearing where officials pledged scrutiny of FBI domestic security.
