Firing of Assassinations Panel Counsel Sparks Storm
Chairman Henry Gonzalez fired Richard Sprague as chief counsel of the House assassinations committee citing attempts to undermine his chairmanship. Sprague’s supporters called the move illegal and refused to accept removal, while Speaker ONeill told police to refrain from eviction. Gonzalez warned he may dissolve the panel and not recommend its life beyond March 31.
