FBI Covered for Mobsters
On top of their 911 fuck-ups, the disasters of the FBI labs (remember OJ?), and their whole history of domestic attacks on the civil rights movement, it now emerges that the Bureau has been covering up for the mob for decades. "Investigators this month released what they called a "smoking gun" memo from 1965 that showed that J. Edgar Hoover was informed that four innocent men had been sent to prison for life for a murder the F.B.I. knew was committed by one of its Boston informers."... Can we get that racist Hoover's name off the building now?Posted by Nathan at May 31, 2002 06:04 AM
