Garrison ties Kennedy case to CIA in survey of inquiry

The district attorney said a foreign intelligence link may shape new disclosures about the Kennedy assassination probe. He cited a New Yorker article by Edward Jay Epstein accusing Garrison of fabricating evidence and alleging CIA involvement, while detailing what he calls a larger professional foreign operation. The Times-Picayune account notes a Garrison aide spent a month with top foreign intelligence officials and that an intermediary contacted his office, claiming access to more specifics. Garrison claimed the plot involved CIA agents and powerful Southwest industrial figures with preexisting ties to the agency, arguing the government seeks to hide the truth.
