Mr. Will iam webster, Director FBI Washington, D.C. 20500 June 22, 1982 QUISIDE SOURCE ‘ ghe Honorable william Bryant Judge Federal Court « Constitution Avenue & Marshall Place, N.W. a Washington, D.C. 20037 Dear Judge Bryant: fable. f) é c prees me fe /; LE CMG AO xr am writing to strongly condemn your recent actions in overturning the ABSCAN conviction of former Representative Richard Kelly. Your statement that"law eafolts t exceeds its bounds when it manufactures crime and creates criminals” 1s absurd. Just what do you think under- cover police work 1s? Your statement and ruling would preclude law enforcement officers from using decoys in the solutions of crimes such as rape and mass murder. _ Representative Kelly has admitted taking the money, and his claim that this was part of his own investigation js just plain bull§ He should have knowa that if he was conducting and investigation, he should do it with the advice and consent of law enforcement officers. Your ruling is not only outrageous, it is dangerous. By way of a copy of thig letter, I am applauding Ppr Director William lr uy 7 webster's commitment to ime ABSCAN type investigations in the futures Very truly yours, \y EJBtksh cc: The President . f m4 , fe FBI Director William Webster An Vk by ia 7) men | American Conservative Union ? a , Citizens for the Republic mame rT WE TE The Heritage Foundation _— ~ NCPAC 4 JUL 79 1982 - ee eee ornare = t oe ae a cece theres ae ve cn one Toe ee EB | apes ce
