FBI Director Kelley Says He Does Not Recall Break-in Authority
Washington AP report notes FBI Director Clarence M. Kelley may not remember seeking authorization for break-ins while at the Birmingham field office in the late 1950s. A spokesman said Kelley could not confirm or deny a Washington Star claim that he asked HQ for approval of a Brevkin over a decade ago. The piece links break-ins to the COINTELPRO era and notes Hoover’s role and unclear AG knowledge according to Senate Intelligence findings.
