UM #1:… you've heard the stories, right?
UM #2: Just glimmers. Carlos knows they're on the boat, so he sends some guys to the Keys.
UM #1: Not just any guys. He sends Chuck the Vice and Nardy Scavone.
UM #2: Oh, Jesus.
UM #1: You have to assume that he wanted to prolong things. It is well known that Chuck and Nardy work slow.
UM #2: I have heard the stories, believe me.

UM #2: So tell me. Don't be a fucking cock-tease.

UM #1: Chuck and Nardy grab her and tie her down. Caries wants to know why they rabbited and did someone tip them off. Chuck's got his vice in a toolbox. He puts Arden's head in. He leans on the handle, but Arden won't give it up.
UM #2: Jesus.

DH,
Here's the summary on my dealings with the PROSPECT to date, including my reasoning on why I think we should use him. I hate writing things down, so READ BURN IMMEDIATELY.
1 – Contact with PROSPECT established 8/16/67, at bar ("Acapulco") downstairs from PROSPECT's residence ("Har-K Apts") in Montreal. PROSPECT was using alias "Eric Starvo Galt." I utilized my fake appearance Latin accent used the alias "Raul Acias."
2 – At Acapulco I sold PROSPECT amphetamine capsules posed as smuggler with segregationist leanings. PROSPECT I met at Acapulco Neptune Tavern over next several nights discussed politics. PROSPECT admitted 2 recent robberies in states (East St. Louis, ill. New Hebron, Miss.) but did not mention his 4/23/67 prison escape. PROSPECT stated that he also robbed a prostitute pimp at a "fuck pad" in Montreal shortly after his arrival. He got $1,700 but was spending $ fast would "soon be broke."
3 – PROSPECT discussed his need to secure ID which would allow him to get a Canadian passport thus travel to other countries. I told him I had co
4 – I told him I had some narcotics for him to drive across the border would pay him $1,200. He agreed to do the job. I filled a briefcase with sand, locked it gave it to him, then met him on the American side. This was a test to see if he would steal the briefcase or would prove to be as compliant as I thought he would be.
5 – He passed the test made 2 other "narcotics runs" for me. I saw that he was determined to drive to Alabama told him I would get him his ID, a new car more $, because I had more "jobs" for him to do. PROSPECT stated that he wanted to spend time in Birmingham, because of its history of "nigger bombings." I gave him $2,000 told him to wait for a letter at Birmingham General Delivery. I also gave him a phone-drop # to call me at in New Orleans.
6 – This was the risk part of the operation, because there was a chance the PROSPECT would ditch out on me. If he didn't, it would confirm his pliable nature suitable nature for our job.
7 – PROSPECT called phone-drop on 8/25 gave his address as "Economy Grill Rooms" in Birmingham. I mailed him $600 a small supply of biphetamine capsules, flew to Birmingham surveilled him from discreet distances. PROSPECT visited the National States Rights Party HQ, purchased right-wing leaflets bumper stickers holed up in his room. I called him (allegedly longdistance) agreed to give him $2,000 (advance against future jobs) so he could buy a new car. I wired the $ to him surveilled his purchase of a 1966 Mustang.
8 – PROSPECT secured an Alabama driver's license (9/6/67) under name "Eric Starve Galt" registered the '66 Mustang. I met PROSPECT in Birmingham, drank talked politics with him told him to buy some camera equipment to sell in Mexico. PROSPECT purchased $2,000 worth of equipment, which I told him to "sit on."
9 – PROSPECT remained in Birmingham, took a locksmith's course dance lessons surreptitiously filmed women from his rooming-house window. I remained in Birmingham took pains never to be seen with him. My plan was to situate PROSPECT in various places give him orders that would sound ridiculous should he be captured interrogated after our operation. PROSPECT's need for $ amphetamines kept him beholden to me.
10 – I wrote PROSPECT on 10/6/67 told him to meet me in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico with the camera equipment. PROSPECT agreed to meet me after he "fenced the goods." Again, I promised to secure him valid ID papers added that I could get him a Canadian passport. PROSPECT met me in Nuevo Laredo with $ from the equipment he fenced, at a loss. I told him I was not mad had more "narcotics runs" for him. PROSPECT was mad that I had not yet secured papers for him, but agreed to stay in Mexico wait for my calls.
11 – PROSPECT traveled throughout Mexico by car called me at phone-drop in New Orleans. I forwarded sums of $ to him at American Express offices paid him for 4 "narcotics runs" from McAllen to Juarez. I met with PROSPECT 4 times from 10/22/67 to 11/9/67 drew him out on political issues. PROSPECT described a "Bounty" offered thru the Grapevine Bar in St. Louis ($50,000 to kill MLK), which sounded like a fantasy but indicated that he might be willing to step up for D-Day, which would upgrade his role in our plan. PROSPECT was drinking heavily, taking amphetamines smoking marijuana in Mexico while there got into altercations with prostitutes pimps. PROSPECT drove to Los Angeles (without calling me) called with address on 11/21/67. He stated he wants more work from me, is taking self-hypnosis self-improvement courses is visiting "segregationist bookstores." He urged me to get him his passport papers as an "advance against future jobs."
12 – PROSPECT remains in L.A. I'm L.A.-based, so I'll be able to surveil him. PROSPECT remains pliable I'm convinced he'll work for us. Have we got a date or location yet?
I'll pouch again when required. Again, READ BURN.
