FBI Reports Conspiracy To Kidnap High US Official
FBI Director J Edgar Hoover testified before a Senate subcommittee about an East Coast conspiracy led by two imprisoned Catholic priests Philip and Daniel Berrigan. The alleged plan included blowing up DC power lines and kidnapping a high federal official to force an end to bombing in Southeast Asia and the release of political prisoners. Hoover said the group, also tied to Arab terrorists and the Black Panthers, aims to disrupt federal operations and may collaborate with foreign elements. He sought a $14.15 million budget increase for 1,000 more agents and 702 more clerks to intensify investigations.
