Training William Webster —pene¥ Puss Alis, Off, yf Director of the F.B.I. qs re as vee Soce Rit, 7 ossty Washington, D.C. , 7) Dear Sir, Now that the Country has finally recovered from Watergate, and it is no longer a topic of daily conversation, the F.B.I. has created Abscam for us! I was certainly amazed that there were so few crimes for the Bureau to investigate that it had to create one of its own. I also resent my tax dollars going to support such a scheme. This investigation lasted for 23 months and involved 100 agents. If there were not crimes to be investigated, then , I believe the FBI should be reduced in force to save tax , dollars. I think the knowledge gained from this investigation may be helpful in deciding future elections, if it can be proved those involved are really guilty. However, I do not believe, a lot of the evidence will even be admissable, if © in the future, these cases even go to trial. , The main thing we have done by creating this skam is to show the world that American politicians are corrupt and at the same time have paved the way for a real Arab scheme. There will always be someone who will take a bribe, but I think we should use our time and efforts to reveal crimes created by someone other than our own F.B.I. COPY :aga ae oN - aa ‘ ome 7 oP, Aw.
