Freelance Journalist inside the Federal Witness Protection Program (WitSec) as a Non-Criminal Federal Witness; I am a Victim of U.S. Government Torture, Terrorism, Political Retribution, Actionable Offenses, and Warrantless Wiretapping. Under the Bush-Cheney administration my Covert Status was Outed to serve as a Passive Sanction for the Assassination of an American Citizen and Former U.S. Intelligence Professional; a federal agent directly under the executive has threatened me with the invention of a criminal charge if I publish. Within the America that I defended my citizenship does not recognize equally entitled civil liberties and inalienable human rights. The U.S. Democratic Congress and the majority of the progressive media have failed to respond to multiple action notices. Therefore I have requested Asylum as a Refugee from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and the Government of Canada where I hope to find a new life as a human being and writer. Please disseminate this true story by all possible means and join me in the liberation of torture victims from the U.S. government’s death camp of democracy.

Synopsis: Foreword

While reading this synopsis, please pause and imagine everything that makes you who you are as a person, your personality, a sense of peace, happiness, laughter, creativity, health, sound mind, citizenship, your future, professional standing, university degrees, financial credit, financial savings and instruments, insurances, family, home, personal property, pets, your name, birth certificate, social security number, social security records and work quarters, constitutional civil liberties and human rights or a history of any kind have been erased completely without conversion and replacement as your reward for voluntary covert government service. The dream and promise of America and everything that you defended for the people of your nation and the world has been completely purged and you are confronted by unanswerable questions in a world where you suddenly appeared like a UFO blip on the grid. Your life has become an existence as an unknowing test subject within a clandestine torture experiment. You exist invisibly as an American citizen in superficial title only while under the constant threat of death that is intensified by the U.S. government’s creation of a mortal threat environment, which serves as a passive sanction for your assassination. You are persecuted through political retribution and the commission of civil and criminal actionable offences by the agents and agencies of the U.S. government under the Bush-Cheney administration that are shielded from legal prosecution by “state secrets privilege” and “national security letters.” Shroud all of this with the loss of your individual sense of self-identity and you have become a member of WitSec’s death camp of democracy and a victim of U.S. government torture.

“Black File 7001” is a work of investigative journalism that was initiated in 1990-1991 and formalized in 1994. Black File 7001 is the Rosetta Stone for deciphering the U.S. government’s torture and terrorism of American citizens; warrantless wiretapping (See images at bottom where applicable); data mining; sneak and peek searches; the electronic theft of intellectual property; the Digital Collection Network System (classified surveillance program possibly used to tamper with electronic voting machines); political retribution; the outing of a covert government status; passive sanctions for the assassination of an American citizen and former covert agent of the federal government; tortious civil crimes; and actionable criminal offenses under state, federal and international law by the named agents and agencies of the U.S. government under the Bush-Cheney administration who remain shielded from prosecution by the administration’s misuse of state secrets privilege and the threat or issuance of national security letters, which prevents legal discovery, subverts the rule of law, and denies an American citizen their constitutional right for legal redress.

Early in 1999, I completed a covert assignment with the FBI lasting five years after having been previously requested to stand-down from a fulltime university curriculum with an inactive law enforcement background for possibly twelve months. Immediately thereafter I entered the Federal Witness Protection Program (WitSec) as a Non-Criminal Federal Witness and ever since have continued to experience the U.S. government’s use of psychological torture practices and political retribution.

The U.S. government does torture, I am one of its American victims and believe that 1,080 other human beings who are or have been non-criminal federal witnesses are likely being terrorized. There is one documented case of suicide and another wrongful death caused by medical neglect where WitSec inspectors stole the witness’s personal property and Viagra. These conditions have caused my every collection of thoughts to include stepping off into oblivion as my only means of finding peace. The worse death is a life without hope and my state of mind and nature remains one that recognizes these feelings were not caused by free choice.

As American citizens in superficial title only, this six percent American minority of 1,080 veterans of voluntary covert government service have become the unknowing test subjects within a clandestine U.S. government torture experiment that serves as a laboratory control sample for the applied use of psychological warfare practices targeted against an American civilian population from which to create a self-consuming disposable society. Under the Bush-Cheney administration these tactics of terrorism have been expanded upon the general population of the United States of America and were escalated after September 11, 2001 or the day my nation was overthrown by a cabal of sociopathic criminals.

In all of this my story began as a multitasking academic prospectus in investigative journalism for a planned book and movie project and the development of a lecture syllabus from which to educate the public and speak within criminal justice and pre-law curriculums, etc. Today with my story being the only thing left to me to earn a living, I hope to restore my life to the place where I should have already been and am additionally seeking a University Initiative with an accredited School of Journalism where I might negotiate a mutually acceptable arrangement from the years invested in this firsthand story.

Synopsis: Background

Work history: Twice sworn in a local law enforcement capacity (commendations and recommendations); specialized skill sets (subversive subcultures); laboratory science; business.

Personality: Throughout my life I have possessed a natural human magnetism with an extroverted personality that has remained both a blessing and a curse. Today my time is primarily spent with my family and writing, but in the past one could have found me noshing and conversing with a U.S. Senator and one of the “bug men” from the Watergate Scandal; talking with a source in the U.S. Secret Service about George H.W. Bush’s testing of an EMP weapon on New York City from a refitted military A-6 Intruder jet or passing on a photo-op sitting behind the president’s desk; drinking German beer and eating black bread with a Nazi SS war criminal that I discovered living in the U.S. who did not recognize that I am Jewish; notorious individuals from the targeted groups of my investigative journalism project; WWII and Vietnam veterans at the VFW or Fraternal Order of UDT/SEAL; playing a few hands of poker with a group at the FOP club; confusing my classmates as a non-traditional student being invited to University faculty functions; conversing with fellow members of the neighborhood civic league over a table of steamed crabs; performing humanitarian relieve protects to help hurricane disaster victims and rescue escaped horses; donating materials and labor to the Masonic Shine; and other times simply getting away from it all out in the country while relaxing over a fried chicken dinner at a Black Baptist church in the Deep South.

Jumping ahead to when I was employed by the FBI, a somewhat jealous ASAC who electronically monitored a penetration told me later that the only reason why I was able to achieve such a high level of successful as a covert agent of the federal government was because I had an “A.M.” on my forehead for “Asshole Magnet.”

My youth: It was my grandfather (1898-1996) who engrained the principles of liberty at my core with his love of life and an organic willingness to fight those who would oppress the inalienable rights of human beings through fear, torture and genocide. As an Italian Jewish child I would listen intently to the stories of my thirteen great aunts and uncles during the weekend family gatherings and never forgot their accountings of fascist atrocities in the early days of the camicie nere or squadristi “Blackshirts.” Many times I listened to how those verminous parasites repeatedly extorted unjust taxes on everything produced by my family’s farm and vineyard in Liguria near Genoa, Italy in the Alps region. Often the story was told of how my family journeyed to America to escape the rise of fascism and their bringing of less fortunate families unable to afford the maritime passage. The pivoting event that necessitated my family’s need to escape the tyranny of political persecution came after they refused to be extorted any further by the fascist machine. A few days later a group of Blackshirts on horseback entered their village through a narrow mountain pass and deliberately trampled one of our children to death. Telling that memory, my grandfather’s voice would take a reminiscent pause to reflect his sorrow before strengthening with the remark – “and all of their horse returned down the mountain with empty saddles.”

Those formative reflections from my family’s past became the shielding within my psyche that has allowed me to endure the ongoing culpable offences and acts of psychological torture implemented against me by the named agents and agencies of the U.S. government under the Bush-Cheney administration. The desire to preserve my belief system also caused me to live in a state of denial for too many years, before I was able to accept the painful truth of having become a torture victim of the U.S. government. Under the Bush-Cheney administration, I have been repeatedly outed with an active covert status, psychologically tortured, and harmed both criminally and civilly by actionable offenses that serve as passive sanctions for the assassination of an American citizen and a former covert agent of the federal government living on U.S. soil.

The ACLU of which I am a member has reported from their Washington D.C. office that in four other cases where they have sought to exercise the constitutional right for legal redress against the U.S. government for other American citizens in similar circumstances, the Bush-Cheney administration has subverted the rule of law by denying legal discovery behind a fraudulent curtain of “state secrets privilege” (See the Reynolds case) and “national security letters.” For that reason I have remember General Douglas MacArthur’s “Island Hopping Campaign” of WWII and am temporarily bypassing the quagmire of a U.S. federal court battle and have instead elected to try this matter in the court of public opinion before the world of human beings.

Synopsis: What is it like being in the Federal Witness Protection Program?

The “Fresh Start” mantra of the Federal Witness Protection Program is another misnomer like the “War on Drugs”, “War on Terror” or “No Child left Behind.” Beyond the initial psyops programming and financial support, the WitSec’s primary purpose is to manage federal witnesses until they complete their court testimony. After that point there is a distinct withdrawal of actual support and the contractually guaranteed items are rarely honored while the non-criminal federal witness is affectively left for dead. The WitSec does not convert college records, college diplomas, professional licenses, high school diplomas, Social Security work quarters, financial history, family history or work history. The WitSec establishes covert front businesses that allegedly serve as a work history without consideration given to the particular witness’s educational background, work experience or their health condition. The WitSec does little if anything to assist witnesses with finding employment and their created work histories cause unanswerable questioning when visiting a local branch office of the Social Security Administration. Witnesses are continually confronted with unanswerable questions by credit card companies and banks while trying establish credit. The WitSec beyond initially reimbursing federal witnesses for out-of-pocket medical expenses fails to provide medical health insurance even to those witnesses with known medical health issues and disabilities. Worst of all, patriots like myself who have been pressed into the WitSec, are unknowingly constitutionally disenfranchised as American citizens and veterans of covert government service. As a witness in the WitSec the individual is made less than a person as an invisible American citizen within our society who is affected by the laws of our nation without equal access or benefit to their entitled constitutional civil liberties and inalienable human rights, while being prevented from bringing legal redress against the U.S. government for actionable offenses and political retribution with a resulting harm of psychological torture compounded from a constant fear of death. On a personal note, after relocating and not having planned to become involved with anyone beyond a friendship, I met the most wonderful human being in the world who has remained my wife for several years. Had it not been for her medical insurance cancer would have already claimed my life four years ago. Since my wife retires this year I will not be able to afford medical insurance as a middle aged person and still be able to assist our child currently attending a university. The WitSec’s negative effect on my life has unforgivably deconstructed my ability to financially maintain a family and to shield my wife from financial harm should I become ill again, I am filing a dissolution of marriage document this week. WitSec inspectors also attempt to keep witness in the program through fear tactics. WitSec inspectors often warn witnesses not to write or publish any articles or they will be relocated one time and forced to start over again (100% of 0 = 0). WitSec inspectors are ordered to try and talk witnesses out of exiting the program by reminding them that criminal elements wish to kill them. The WitSec’s use of fear tactics is part of the torture formula that causes the three conditions mentioned elsewhere within this synopsis; “the company store model, Stockholm Syndrome and something cousin to Munchausen by Proxy Syndrome. For non-criminal federal witnesses the WitSec is the U.S. government’s clandestine torture experiment that utilizes 1,080 American veterans of covert government service as a laboratory control sample for the applied methods of psyops and terrorism practices on a U.S. civilian population, which in human beings causes the individual loss of self-identity and on a larger scale a self-consuming society that under extreme applications could produce conditions allowing the use of Martial Law. Shroud all of that beneath a veil of political retribution and civil and criminal actionable offenses shielded from legal consequence while living under known and unknown mortal threat factors and you will end up unable to move in any direction with the unthinkable thought of oblivion as your only possibility for achieving peace. This same U.S. government psyops formula for torture and terrorism continues to be visibly applied against the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Even the Romans only tortured after a person had been convicted of a crime.

Synopsis: Seeking a Humanitarian Intervention, a University Initiative with an Accredited School of Journalism and Asylum as a Refugee through the UN and Canada:

As an American worth the salt of human investment, I am requesting a humanitarian intervention before it is too late through the court of public opinion. Recently I have begun the process of requesting asylum as a refugee from political persecution by contacting the International Court of Justice aka the World Court and Cour internationale de Justice; Mr. António Guterres the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees; and the Honourable Diane Finley, P.C., M.P., Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Under the Bush-Cheney administration my life has been deliberately placed in mortal danger while simultaneously terrorized with the tactics of psychological torture through actionable offences committed by agent and agencies shielded from criminal and civil prosecution.

As urgently as my family once fled from the rise of fascism in Europe I am seeking a life and citizenship in Canada. The United States of America under the Bush-Cheney administration as supported by their control over the corporate news media and the silence of the majority of the progressive movement and the craven Democratic Congress, has perpetuate this death camp of democracy and allowed 1,080 enslaved American veterans of covert government service and their families to remain the Holocaust victims of the republican neoconservative era.

My lifetime has been spent defending the nation of my birth on many levels at great personal sacrifice and more specifically the environment and the good people of America and the world. Whereas staying in the U.S. for me will certainly result in my unnatural death, I am therefore pleading that as a human being you write a letter support to the above mentioned parties and requests they assist me in establishing a university initiative with a school of journalism and grant my asylum as a refuge in Canada to escape the political retribution and psyops torture of the U.S. government under the Bush-Cheney administration. Once in Canada and the nation where the dream and promise of liberty still exists, I will continue to defend all human beings and tell this story within the pages of books, film productions, and public speaking.

Synopsis: Laws Broken by the WitSec; et al:

As to the American citizens who have become torture victims as non-criminal federal witnesses within the Federal Witness Protection Program and specifically in my own case, I opine that with each culpable act committed by the agents and agencies of the U.S. government under the Bush administration, the government has trampled the mandate of the Federal Witness Protection Program by violating the legal protections guaranteed both current and former covert agents of the federal government under the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 (Public Law 91-452) that was amended by the Comprehensive Crime Control Act of 1984; Federal Court Seals protecting covert identities from being outed and commingled; the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, United States Code, Title 50 - War and National Defense, Chapter 15 - National Security, Subchapter IV – Protection of Certain National Security Information, U.S. Code as of: 01/02/01, Section 421. Protection of identities of certain United States undercover intelligence officers, agents, informants, and sources (applies even more strongly in my case than the singular leak of CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson due to the multiple counts in violation of the act); the U.S. Patriot Act; the U.S. Espionage Act; HIPPA; the Privacy Act of 1974 with similar requirements to HIPPA that was the first regulation issued by the Social Security agency, which established safeguards for the protection of personal information maintained in the records controlled by the Social Security Administration and the SSA’s, Sensitive Operations Division; and by the U.S. government’s commission of actionable offences through Conspiracy, Warrantless Wiretapping, Data Mining, Sneak and Peek Searches, the Theft of Intellectual Property, Psychological Torture, and Political Retribution have treasonously deconstructed my inalienable human rights and equally entitled civil liberties at both the state and federal constitutional levels. With each actionable offense committed under the veil of a national security shield by the named agents and agencies of the U.S. government under the Bush-Cheney administration, growing mortal threat environment has been created around my geographic location, which stands as a passive sanction for the assassination of an American citizen and a former covert agent of the federal government living on U.S. soil.

Synopsis: About the Migration of CIA Torture Programs:

Prior to the creation of the Federal Witness Protection Program and its clandestine use of non-criminal federal witnesses as a laboratory control sample to test the applied tactics of psyops terrorism on a relatively defenseless minority group of American citizens as a U.S. civilian population, the guidelines for torture and experimentation were developed from the 1963 CIA KUBARK Counterintelligence Interrogation Manual and the 1983 CIA Interrogation Training Manual that was used in Honduras for training Honduran officers in torture and interrogation. The four torture methods may overlap in some cases and include: 1. Sensory Disorientation; 2. Self-Inflicted Pain; 3. Attacking Cultural Identity; and 4. Targeting Individual Fears. Previously these torture techniques were predominantly used in secret on persons who most likely remained the unknowing test subjects of these government torture experiments that are now being freely targeted against American citizens and other innocent human beings around the world.

The four essential torture methods being routinely used today against American citizens and humanity at large were initially developed by the CIA with numbers 3 and 4 “Attacking Cultural Identity and Targeting Individual Fears” evolving later through the experiments conducted by General Geoffrey Miller at the behest of Donald Rumsfeld. Rumsfeld’s expanded torture methods surpass the allowable interrogation techniques mandated within the U.S. Army Field Manual 3452. Rumsfeld instructed General Ricardo Sanchez, the U.S. Commander in Iraq to implement the four torture techniques against prison detainees inside Abu Ghraib prison and the noncombatant Iraqi civilian population. Donald Rumsfeld’s “good job” naming and outing of the anonymous U.S. Army Specialist and whistle-blower at Abu Ghraib is itself an act of terrorism and constitutes an attack against an American citizen and U.S. military service member, regardless whether or not that soldier is considered federal government property.

These terrorism practices have been migrated into the Federal Witness Protection Program and unless the veil of fraudulent secrecy is removed that shields clandestine criminal acts, cloaked congressional oversight, and erroneous claims made before the U.S. Congress and the American public by the U.S Marshals Service, Director John F. Clark and Assistant Director Sylvester Jones (See America’s Star: FYI, Vol. 1, No.1, August 2006) then Americans will awaken one day and find themselves standing in the death camp of democracy.

Synopsis: Barebones Outline of Black File 7001

1. High School 1970s: During the early to mid 1970s while attending high school I played varsity football as a “left” defensive tackle in my freshman year and received awards for artwork and writing with a sonnet and short story published nationally. Writing to me is what water is to a fish.

2. How I define me: In self-definition I am a Humanitarian-Universal-Infrastructuralist or a person who has spent a lifetime identifying and interrelating the commonalities between myself and all known sentient beings and other components within the universe from which to become more human.

3. Preliminary research 1990: 1990 had several occasions to conduct up close studies of three organized crime groups within the U.S. that afforded the compilation of data for what later became Black File 7001.

4. Trauma 1994: Early in 1994 I had been working in a government laboratory for 2.5 years as a hazmat safety officer and laboratory technician. One evening while riding a recently rebuilt Harley-Davidson motorcycle to return some borrowed books, there was hardly anyone on the highway accept for a car poised to make a left turn that had remained completely stopped for three hundred yards while I approached. Traveling 45mph while passing in front of the vehicle the driver accelerated into my left side and after a slow motion tumble, I later expired in the hospital with an out of body experience before relearning how to walk a second time during a 17 week hospital stay and another year in outpatient therapy. The driver and vehicle that drove into me were part of the federal government.

5. College 1994: While still convalescing from life changing injuries I continued to network with my target groups, recognized I could no longer stand the length of time required to continue working in a lab and multitasked to become the first person in my immediate family to attend college. Initially I pursued an Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice with two classes a semester and later as a fulltime university student, a BA in Art Education with Teaching Certificate K-12, a Minor in Journalism and all of that wrapped in a Pre-Law Curriculum.

6. Case starts with state and DEA 1994: During college in 1994 I discovered actionable intelligence of a criminal group distributing methamphetamine to persons within the public school systems and my hometown. Initially I conferred with a Vietnam era CIA advisor known to me and was mistakenly referred to a very corrupt state law enforcement agent who was heavily involved in Republican politics and eventually attempted to solicit that we shakedown drug dealers and have them sign-over businesses. This state law enforcement agent blamed a U.S. Senator for costing him 100,000.00 in a maritime deal and stated that he wanted to get even. The most egregious fact came when I discovered this state agent had never submitted my 302 intelligence reports and had allowed hundreds of pounds of methamphetamine to be distributed into the school systems and community. This state agent’s demeanor fractionalized the case that had been shared with the DEA. A U.S. Marine Corps General attached to the DEA and I got along like two tigers hunting on the same mountain and enjoyed a little scuffle together in an empty secret courtroom before we were separated (I had a larger than life ego back then.). The case with 125 criminal targets on the books was crushed and administratively reinstalled by the FBI. The state agent was dismissed after a closed administrative hearing and his wife later charged with embezzling 100,000.00 in a Medicare scandal involving the elderly; both professed as being “good Christians.”

Note: The DEA in an unrelated matter that I had networked into raided and released some drug dealers on bail. One of those criminal targets had discovered the DEA missed 40lbs of illegal narcotics and reported the find to the DEA control agent with a request that the DEA come and pick up the narcotics. My source reported that the DEA told the criminal target that the drugs were of no use to them and “to sell the illegal narcotics” and turn in the money to the DEA, which they could use. This and other experiences demonstrated that the mantras “War on Drugs” and “War on Terror” are superficial political buzz phrases that mask the cash cows of government money harvests and profiteering.

7. FBI case late 1994: Late 1994 while still attending a university as a fulltime student, I continued working the case for the FBI and for the most part everything was professional, but behind closed doors the FBI does not always act as portrayed on television.

8. FBI requests I stand-down from college: At the beginning of my 3rd year of university coursework, I had built such a large case that the matter became an undercover group one investigation that later produced a case file measuring over eighteen feet in length. Both the FBI and I realized that my covert government service was going to require my total focus and as much as I felt the personal sacrifice from leaving the university, I equally felt it was my turn to serve my country. The FBI projected the case might continue for another 12 months and five years later without ever taking one day off, the case concluded with raids over a four state area involving 280 federal agents making several arrests.

Note: There are many back stories that will make for a sexier plot in a book or movie, but I am keeping this synopsis as barebones as possible while giving you a little something about who I am.

9. The Federal Witness Protection Program: In 1999 and having been injured in the line of duty three months before the case closed down, I finished the investigation in breathtaking pain with a scare to the left side of my brain and spinal damage. Then I entered the WitSec as a “Non-Criminal” Federal Witness.

10. The WitSec Blacksite located in Northern Virginia: Arriving at the blacksite in a vehicle with blacked-out windows, my overall condition was like that of a frontline soldier having been rapidly extracted from the battlefield as the walking wounded. My combined state was hyper mission focused from remaining undercover for five years while suffering through the last three months of the FBI investigation with trauma injuries received in the line of duty. With a scar to the left side of my brain and four crushed lower spinal discs, I was in a fog from the narcotic pain medication dispensed by a WitSec inspector. Compounding these factors were a developed degree of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from being brandished with assault weapons, having explosive ordinance tossed in my lap while operating under standing orders from a former U.S. Attorney General to terminate any criminal target threatening my life. Life has always been sacred to me, I have always been a giver more than a taker and regularly give thanks for never having been forced to claim a human life. Today I still cannot sleep during firecracker holidays.

The blacksite, which I could easily locate again as a result of insufficient WitSec security protocols, was the first place where it became clear that the WitSec Program was exclusively designed for criminal or custodial federal witnesses and not non-criminal federal witnesses, which also included former members of law enforcement.

In hindsight and by comparison to the current administration’s desire to search library records and conduct warrantless wiretapping of American citizens, there was a heightened concern by WitSec inspectors over what books that I had been reading prior to entering the WitSec and I suppose the government was afraid that I might have read “WITSEC” by Gerry Shur.

Although you stay in a secure luxury apartment, you quickly recognize that you are being “worked” with systematic rewards of cash money that I found professionally insulting. Like a controlled laboratory experiment the WitSec Program takes unfair advantage of statistical knowledge to manipulate the psychological and physical conditions of witnesses who are unable to simply reacclimate into normalcy having been rapidly extracted from a prolonged state of hyper-vigilance from remaining in character and undercover within a life and death environment. During this time and long before the erosive reality of the WitSec takes hold, witnesses are given psychological evaluations while the results are easily massaged in the government’s favor and pressed into signing covert contracts with copies never being given to witnesses.

Witnesses are electronically monitored around the clock with day and night cameras and even while using the restroom (psychologically this is comparable to being stripped naked and raped at a CIA blacksite). The WitSec denied this practice even when challenged with the knowledge that I have utilized classified state of the art electronic surveillance equipment during multiple covert operations. While being processed at the blacksite, American citizens are deprogrammed and reprogrammed through a series of conditioning tactics that continue beyond the confines of the facility and throughout their unnatural lives. These sequential factors I compare to “the Company Store Model”, which institutionalizes witnesses on the road leading towards “Stockholm Syndrome”, which causes witnesses to sympathetically identify with their government handlers. The final component in the process is something cousin to “Munchhausen by Proxy Syndrome” that makes a human being both sick and well (de-tempering) at the same time while eroding their individual sense of self-identity until a person becomes self-consuming and continually think about suicide. In the case of criminal federal witness this conditioning has caused recidivism. In both cases the conditions caused are based on one of the four principle formulas used in CIA torture techniques.

11. WitSec Blunders: Gross incompetence and bureaucracy caused a number of concerns while leaving the immediate threat area and while returning to complete my court work.

(A) Leaving on a small turboprop aircraft from the immediate threat area, the ceiling and oxygen masks above the seats in front of mine fell out and hit the passengers in their heads. Before that incident however, I was more concerned about the red indicator light on the instrument panel that could be seen through the open cockpit door and a young copilot’s need to read the instruction manual under the seat. It gets worse, the red light was from the cabin door not sealing and with the ceiling laying in the floor we began taxing to the repair hanger where one of my meth addict criminal targets who agreed to cooperate and testy with immunity had been released to continue working on airplanes. Allegedly this guy had some involvement with an incident where the hydraulic pins were pulled on a commercial jetliner while another aircraft mechanic was working in the nose gear compartment that was subsequently crushed to death. When the cabin door opened I grabbed the newspaper from the seat and covered my head as if sleeping. Fortunately a different mechanic came onboard with a rubber hammer and a roll of duct tape to make the craft airworthy.

(B) When we landed at a national airport no one would help me carry the two large black military flight bags and with an empty concourse the figure approaching me came into focus as Ted Koppel who made eye contact and as he passed beside me I deliberately bumped him off balance to piss him off and cause him to remember me for future reference.

(C) Returning to testify for four days on the witness stand and while making a weekend return trip home, the WitSec inspector for that area gave my security detail the wrong half of the flight ticket and being the only guy in the group with money, I had to pay for my own ticket. My detail spreads out at the airport and started talking with each other while I am the only person observing a marine in front of me opening a gun case on the floor containing a sniper rifle and a combat pistol.

(D) On a connecting flight while trying to remain invisible, the airline calls out my name over the public address system and my first thought was that I had been sold out, but they were just offering passenger a free ticket if they would wait for another flight. I just wanted to get home to see my wife and enjoy her homemade soup.

12. WitSec Inspector John “D.” 1999 - November 2000: The WitSec personnel are so use to working with criminals; they experience difficulties accepting persons who are non-criminal federal witnesses and the even smaller group within that percentage who are former members of law enforcement. After relocating from the blacksite to a new geographic location with plans of a much needed R&R before rejoining the academic community, J.D., my first WitSec inspector starts out like an alpha dog with you cannot be fingerprinted so what is your felony record? My response was that I am not a felon or a criminal and cannot be fingerprinted because I was twice sworn as a cop, have maintained a concealed weapons permit since 1979 and was additionally printed at the federal level for the same reason why I laced a dog tag in my black jungle boots to help identify my body if killed. J.D. remarked how come you don’t have any tattoos coming from the type of investigation you were running and I explained that I could not be buried in an Orthodox Jewish cemetery with anything other than a death camp number (I’ve earned that without the ink) and that my non-typical Jewish features have served me well in hunting fascists and Nazis criminals living in America and elsewhere. Point being that I have always tried to work with the tools available to make the world a better place.

(A) From the moment I entered the WitSec, J.D. began outing my covert status by handing out U.S. Marshals Service business cards to doctors and flashing his badge while trying to impress sexy nurses when there was absolutely no need to do so since I paid cash for those services and was initially reimbursed for my expenses. Additionally the process of obtaining a driver’s license also involved the retaking of a written exam and J.D. identifying himself and me as the witness to a DMV person who projected hostility towards me as if I were less than human. My other concern was that during the FBI case, I had investigated a DMV employee and a sitting judge who was made it possible for a female criminal to obtain vehicle titles for oral sexual favors.

(B) J.D. physically pointed out three other federal witnesses to me and revealed their criminal histories with one of those witnesses being acknowledged less than eight feet from us while walking through an airport.

(C) J.D. began describing how one criminal federal witness was making trouble for him and might need to be “handled” after following him home one evening.

(D) J.D. started giving up personal information while acting as my good friend. J.D. stated that one of his son’s had gotten into trouble with a trunk filled with assault weapons and explosive substances at the airport and that he had gotten him out of trouble. J.D. repeatedly told me how much financial difficulties he was having and that his wife was fatally ill with a neurological illness. Remaining a human being, I gave J.D. $500.00 in cash as a matter of charity and later recognized the entire story was a con and shakedown.

(E) J.D. told me that federal witnesses have committed suicide and one witness in his district died from medical neglect stating “we all forgot to check on him.” J.D. continued while smiling, “we had the body removed, took all of his personal belonging and divided up his Viagra…the stuff really works.” J.D. added the comment that some WitSec inspectors have gotten jammed up for having sex with witnesses or from receiving blow jobs from pretty girls wanting to extend their benefits period.

(F) Mid 2000: J.D. requests my assistance in drafting a letter of support to WitSec Headquarters, because he was being investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice. Other witnesses accused J.D. of shaking them down for money to avoid being outed with the simultaneous creation of a mortal threat environment by the government agent. This actionable offense in direct contrast to the WitSec’s mandate, further serves as a passive sanction for the assassination of federal witnesses aka human beings, American citizens, former covert agents of the federal government, and veterans of voluntary government service. As another fear tactic J.D. also threatened to violate witnesses under the rules of the WitSec Program, which could include postal mailing mysteriously arriving in your birth name to your relocation area. The process of violating a federal witness while that person remains in good standing causes the witness to be relocated and forced to start over again with only another new name and social security number, which is not an exaggeration.

(G) J.D.’s supervisor (B.D.) contacted me and requested a secret meeting with him and a U.S. Attorney. Knowing my background in electronic surveillance, B.D. insisted on searching my vehicle when the three of us arrived for our meeting. B.D. didn’t know that I already knew that he was also under investigation for questionable pornography being accessed through a federal government computer.

(H) Immediately after the supposed secret meeting, J.D. telephonically contacted me and asked for all the details of what was said and laughed that B.D. had searched my vehicle for recording devises, which had I been operating a sting he would have never found anyway. Still wanting to believe that J.D. was not a criminal I told the truth and hoped for the best, but could tell something was up from the line of questioning.

(I) April 30, 2002: J.D. was sentenced to federal prison for the theft of U.S. government funds and had been relieved of duty and placed on administrative leave on or about November 21, 2000.

13. WitSec Inspector “Allan” S., Partner of J.D. 2000 – Present: Recognizing the Federal Witness Protection Program was a threat to my life and hoping that the actionable offenses and political retributions would stop, I exited the WitSec in good standing in early 2001 with an intact covert status. Unfortunately the civil and criminal actionable offenses never ended and WitSec inspector A.S. remains culpable. The WitSec, their agent WitSec inspector A.S. and the Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division, which processes Social Security matters for persons in covert-ops, the CIA and State Department personnel working oversees are culpable for multiple actionable offenses including conspiracy and treason.

Many times my covert status has been outed by the WitSec and the SSA’s Sensitive Operations Division.

Given the two considerations of bureaucrat incompetence and criminal misconduct, both have caused the federal court seal allegedly protecting my identities from being comingled to be violated on multiple occasions. Even more life threatening has been the postal mail that was either forwarded from a clandestine WitSec P.O. box address or sent directly to my relocated home address in my birth name. (See items 14 and 27)

One piece of mail came from a federal agency and had been deliberately forwarded using my birth name to my relocated home address by the WitSec. The other piece of mail came directly to my relocated home address using my birth name from a former medical provider who had been seen prior to entering the WitSec and contacted later by the WitSec and the SSA’s Sensitive Operations Division regarding my claim for Social Security Disability Benefits.

On the one hand both pieces of mail technically violated my ability to remain in the WitSec unless I agreed to be relocated and start from zero again. On the other hand both pieces of mail were also actionable offenses targeted against a non-criminal federal witness by the Federal Witness Protection Program that is mandated to protect witnesses from known parties making death threats.

The letters violated a host of civil and criminal laws while outing my covert status with the intent of political retribution and a resulting harm that created a mortal threat environment that affects every human being around my geographic location.

A.S rarely interacted well with me and eventually I profiled the WitSec inspector as a criminal sociopath within a written complaint to WitSec Headquarters. A.S. and J.D. had those letters mailed in my birth name to violate me out of their federal district or to passively sanction my assassination as a non-criminal federal witness by creating a trail of waypoints to my location. Additionally this served as a solicitation to known criminal threats for the murder of a federal witness by the WitSec Program.

14. July 17, 2000: Received another piece of mail (mentioned in item 13 and see item 27) in my birth name that had been sent directly to my home from what had to be either WitSec inspector J.D. or A.S. The letter was from a federal agency and I was forced to make contact with their administrator to demand that person seal my file and advise them my life had been placed in danger by their contacting me.

15. 2000 Elections: After five years of lying to criminals and others while performing government service, it remains my intent to live with a truthful life and reclaim my academic standing. Initially I started writing stories about life based in eastern philosophies. However following the 2000 election, my writing turned political after recognizing this Republican administration as the same type of animals that I had previously hunted with FBI. My opinions of the Bush-Cheney administration were based on several years of practical experience around criminal subculture groups, constitutional civil liberties and human rights. Unable to identify with the Trojan Horse Republican Party I terminated my lifelong membership and became an independent voter who supported the Democrats in 2004 and 2006 only to be incensed by their craven demeanors that given my personal sacrifices for our nation are to me a cowardice that equals treason.

16. November 21, 2000: Requested A.S. to provide my sanitized and converted college transcripts and Social Security Records, to provide me with a U.S. Passport, and begin the process of applying for Social Security Disability Benefits.

17. January 10, 2001: A.S. provided me with my college rerecords that were not sanitized and converted as contractually guaranteed and told me to take my identifications in both my birth name and new WitSec identity along with my college records to the dean at any university and have them place my records in the system. Knowing this was a ludicrous directive, I did not perform and later when questioning A.S. about same he stated “did I say do that…oh I couldn’t have said to do that…oh it’s a bureaucracy you know…you’ll just have to wait until something changes.” My Social Security records have never been converted and the U.S. Passport was provided during a same day round trip to a federal building and within one hour I walked out with a U.S. Passport. Too bad everything else was not that easy.

18. July 2001: After then CIA Director George Tenet had notified the Bush-Cheney administration that Bin Laden was going to use commercial jetliners to attack the U.S., I flew around the U.S. Pentagon sitting next to former U.S. Senator Gary Hart making small talk on my way to lecture Special Agents in Training at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. In hindsight I guess that I will never actually know if that flight was suspected of being one of those targeted on 911. That 911 date has many interesting connection throughout my life that I will address within the book that I am writing.

19. September 11, 2001: Social Security Administration’s Special Operation Division (S.O.D.) placed a harassing telephone call to me while the twin towers were literally falling to the ground after being struck by commercial jetliners flown by Saudi Arabians and members of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Two of their S.O.D. administrative agents were chuckling sarcastically while harassing me about the point size used on the SSA forms that I had previously filled out and returned to their office through WitSec inspector A.S.

20. November 2001 or thereabouts: Was requested by a former cross-sworn police investigator (L.H.M.) who had been on the FBI team to entertain and debrief two federal antiterrorism agents conferencing in my area regarding my areas of expertise. We met over dinner and the younger agent had many questions regarding criminal subcultures. Both provide their contact information and requested that I assist them if and when possible and I agreed.

21. December 31, 2002: My former FBI team member and cross-sworn police investigator L.H.M., had already retired. Immediately after retiring from the police department, a source alleged that L.H.M had the job criteria manipulated by the U.S. Navy’s human resource department to disqualify other candidates and to insure his own hiring as a NCIS agent. Previously after completing the FBI investigation in 1999, I gave L.H.M. a Harley-Davidson show motorcycle to sell and place the money into a college fund for his daughter, since he was a single parent, but discovered later that he used the money from that sale to purchase new computers and a complete home entertainment system (a couple people besides myself always remarked that this person lived above their pay grade). Additionally I left my private vehicle with L.H.M. to sell when I entered the WitSec with instruction to pay off a small loan with a credit union and any personal property taxes for the year. L.H.M. sold my vehicle and was prevented by a police detective friend from conspiring to commit a larceny while short changing me on the selling price. Somewhere between the end of 2001 and January 2002, L.H.M. requested my assistance with “Operation Candyman” to target pedophiles online who were distributing child pornography. However, L.H.M. would not provide me with the contact information for the control agent to secure a written federal contract and I therefore refused to participate in the investigation for professional reasons.

Publishing and what Americans are reading seems to be the great fear of the Bush-Cheney administration. As a federal NCIS agent directly under the command of the Bush-Cheney administration, on New Year’s Eve 2002, L.H.M. telephonically contacted me and stated “you have a lot of people afraid to death that you are going to destroy their clandestine programs…and if you publish a book…a criminal charge will be invented against you.” Refusing to stop writing and publishing, the political retributions intensified and continued.

Note: For a one year period from on or about the dates of July 9, 2002 through June 30, 2003I began receiving harassing telephone calls as documented within the redacted log entries included bellow. With the considerations surrounding this matter these telephone calls acted as a form of psychological torture.


22. March 4, 2003: Warrantless wiretapping. Notified the local FBI office that I suspected someone had cloned my electronics (computer and mobile telephone) using the “Digital Collection Network System”, which allowed the investigating agency to easily clone anyone’s electronic devises (electronic voting machines) and hear and see everything communicated though those components. The system is well over ten years old now and was used by the FBI while I was working undercover to locate criminal targets for arrest through cellphone triangulations. My computer monitor had telltale signs of being cloned with dots forming to each side of words and the mouse pointer moving on its own. Whether an accident or a deliberate act to cause psychological distress, someone sent me an e-mail using my own address. Other e-mails sent to the Department of Justice disappeared from both ends of the system.

23. April 2003: Sneak and peek search.  While taking our child on an overnight trip to visit a major university, my home office was subjected to a sneak and peek search by what I suspect was the FBI. After viewing the awards and photographs hanging on my office walls, an FBI 302 report that had been firmly placed between a stack of books was left neatly on the floor in what I would describe as a heads up. My sources in the FBI have reported that the majority of federal personnel who are gagged by presidential appointments feel the same way that I do about the Bush-Cheney administration.

24. October 3, 2003: A.S. comes to my home with a plain clothed deputy marshal who does not possess a WitSec security clearance and outs my covert status again. A.S. asks me to sign a WitSec survey form in my new name, even though the form stated not to use your name. In compliance with his directive, I signed my new name and mailed the document as instructed in a preaddressed and stamped envelope provided by WitSec inspector A.S. When I asked A.S. why I had not received responses to a number of written complaints that had been mailed to the WitSec Headquarters’ mailing address previously provided by A.S., he chuckled sarcastically and laughed with a big smile while stating “well it’s the U.S. Patriot Act…they changed the headquarters’ mailing address and don’t want us to give it out…ha ha you’ll just have to communicate directly through me and I’ll read all your letters.” Still grinning A.S. added “all of those complaints you thought you were sending to the chief went through four other Marshal’s offices with regular staffers without WitSec security clearances before they finally got to where you hoped they would have been delivered originally.” When asked why A.S. came to my home with non-WitSec personnel, A.S. stated “oh I use guys without security clearances all the time.”

25. October 8, 2003: A.S. contacted me telephonically and left a voicemail message that I recorded and caught him stopping himself before completing the statement “I need you to call me…that survey you…I made a mistake…” Contacting A.S., he stated “that WitSec survey was supposed to be signed in your birth name, not your new identity name and the place that I had you send it was not part of the WitSec, but I guess you’ll be okay…if anyone suspicious shows up give me a call.” A.S. continued, “I need you to go to the federal courthouse and talk with Larry…he helps me but isn’t part of the WitSec…he’ll have another set of survey documents that you need to sign in your birth name…don’t worry about it…Larry is ok and you can trust him.”

26. October 9, 2003: I met Larry outside the courthouse in my vehicle, signed the WitSec documents in my birth name and electronically taped the transaction. Again A.S. had comingled my identities and outed my covert status.

27. October 10, 2003: Letter mailed from a past medical provider seen prior to entering the WitSec and that had been contacted by the WitSec and Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division after I had applied for Social security Disability Benefits, was deliberately readdressed and forwarded in my birth name to my relocation address.

28. November 23, 2003: After many conversations that guaranteed the separation of my identities, WitSec inspector A.S. and the Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division deliberately commingle my sealed identities with both my birth name and new identity being entered within publically accessible Social Security Disability Benefits documents submitted by the government during an SSA hearing. Further at the SSA hearing besides the judge and my attorney and me there were two other people present without WitSec clearances. One was the transcriptionist who possessed the smile of a person that enjoyed the suffering of others. The other was a person who applied employment standards to me that are for regular American citizens who have normal identities and a handicap, but gave no consideration to my special security issues or the fact that I am forbidden to be fingerprinted when he told the court that I could find a job as a security guard. Every stated purpose of the WitSec from my experience is a misnomer when considering the title Federal Witness Protection Program. Social Security Disability benefits were awarded and later punitively withdrawn in political retribution (See item 32). During this process and after deliberate delays while the WitSec and Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division crafted their evidence, the government’s SSA judge issued several letters boarding on charging the Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division with contempt and stated the government had provided erroneous information to the court that would like make it impossible for me to receive a fair hearing.

29. December 14, 2003 through 2004: Former WitSec inspector J.D. released from prison as a federal felon and allowed to stalk me without legal consequence. J.D. admitted that he had driven past my home several times and remarked “I’m surprised you are still here.” On three occasions I turned to discovered J.D. following me through public stores. On one occasion J.D. approached me while stopped at a fueling station. Most egregious however was when I found J.D. sitting in a fast-food restaurant one evening where our child was employed during a summer break from school. After over 30 written security notices were filed with WitSec Headquarters, no action was ever taken by the government. Late in 2004, J.D. accosted me by the arm in a local warehouse store while I was near death from chemotherapy treatments for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma cancer. Even though I am unable to secure meaningful employment after 3000 job applications over my years in the WitSec, J.D. is now processing the private financial records of American citizens as a mortgage loan officer.

30. December 24, 2003: The local FBI person who I sometimes communicated with regarding actionable intelligence, which often seems to come my way, gave me their internal e-mail address because the FBI’s national grid had been penetrated three times during the year. The local FBI office and I happened to use the same protection software during this time period. On the night Christmas Eve 2003, my computer was electronically penetrated and all of my intellectual property was conspicuously stolen or destroyed. Still I kept publishing.

31. April 6, 2004: After an ongoing argument with WitSec inspector A.S. about deliberately commingling my identities while listening to his sarcastic snickering and still publishing, the WitSec and Social Security Administration’s Sensitive Operations Division conspired to withdraw my approved Social Security Disability Benefits in political retribution. Further the S.O.D. and WitSec removed a covert front business from the SSA’s regular computer system, which constituted my only work history and was the only way of showing that I had ever existed anywhere after suddenly appearing on the grid like a UFO nearing middle age. The local SSA office staff believed someone had hacked their computer system and reported the problem to their supervisor.

32. June 4, 2004: Diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma cancer. Received a telephone call from my doctor almost immediately after finishing the first draft of the full version Black File 7001 report. Started and stopped that report many times from psychological torture, denial that my own government would conduct itself in such a manner and from illness.

33. December 21, 2005: After previously submitting a job application to a local high-tech company that is also a U.S. Defense contractor, three persons from the human resource department called during regular business hours on a company telephone to make harassing anti-Semitic remarks. A complaint was filed with the Department of Labor, but since they would not admit to their civil wrong, no legal action could be brought.

34. January 20, 2006 to Present: As a means of psyops or psychological torture, the U.S. government through T-Mobile, Inc. started arrogantly acknowledging their Warrantless Wiretapping and data mining by sending text messages using the short code “7001” as notification of receiving an online payment. 7001 is my classified WitSec number. Previously the short code used for these text messages was “129.” (See included images)

35. June 8, 2006: Provided actionable intelligence to my FBI contacts of the videotaped murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl. Sometime later al Qaeda terrorist Abu Musab al Zarqawi was terminated. Life is sacred to me and none more so then the lives of my family, the American people and other innocent human beings around the world.

36. June 18, 2007: After the WitSec and Social Security Administration’s Special Operations Division conspired to craft their evidence to withdraw my Social Security Disability Benefits; the matter was forwarded on appeal in November 2003. On or about May 2007 the SSA Hearing and Appeals Board contacted my attorney and stated they had lost my classified comingled SSA records, which further outed my covert status and inquired if my attorney had a copy that he could send them. My attorney obliged and two weeks later with the crafted-reprisal-evidence in hand, the SSA Hearing and Appeals Board denied my claim. The matter is pending on the civil docket in the federal court where it will be denied again with my inability to enter the full truth of this matter into evidence.

Note: Beyond these calls I have recognized the use of tactics that create grounds for warranted surveillance based on false and/or planted evidence. This only requires the use of segmented monitoring posts using simple methods to paint an innocent person as a possible terrorist target. In that respect the only terrorist is the government surveillance operation.

End Black File 7001 Synopsis


Saving Money And Endangering Lives; A sweeping audit of WITSEC could show that budget constraints and misappropriated funds are putting the lives of both federal witnesses and inspectors in danger.

Insight on the News, March 29, 2004

Byline: Timothy W. Maier, INSIGHT

Rocked by allegations from witness-security specialists that funds have been misappropriated and witnesses relocated to dangerous areas, the Inspector General (IG) of the Department of Justice, Glenn A. Fine, quietly has ordered an audit of the federal witness-security program (WITSEC). Long highly respected, this program had helped convict more than 10,000 gangsters and terrorists while protecting about 21,000 informants and their dependents during a 30-year period. Veteran law-enforcement officials wonder what took the Justice Department so long to start asking hard questions about why the elite witness-security team has been treated like "field trash" and fed only table scraps from an estimated $60 billion budget. The IG audit follows on the heels of two investigative reports by this magazine warning that it would be only a matter of time before witnesses began turning up dead in a program run out of the U.S. Marshals Service.

Insight's two reports ["Breaking Omertà," June 3, 2002, and "Terror Witnesses May Be Left in Cold," July 22, 2002] were followed by a Fox News report and a Washington Post magazine article that took a hard look at the program. But it was Insight's investigative stories that may have kick-started the audit. In fact, the stories prompted IG auditors to contact this magazine last August with a series of questions about allegations outlined in the reports.

In particular, the Justice Department is following up on allegations first reported by Insight concerning the relocation of federal witnesses into so-called danger zones. This magazine reported that there was a concerted effort to save money by not moving endangered witnesses from coast to coast but rather leaving them in the same state or simply moving them across town. Insight cited an e-mail sent by senior management instructing inspectors to try to find reasons to leave witnesses as close to home as possible. Although the IG office has been secretive about its probe, a Justice Department auditor tells Insight the IG is seeking that e-mail as part of its ongoing probe.

Meanwhile, Insight has learned a similar e-mail from a senior manager was sent to the field during the first week of March to try to justify placing a number of witnesses released from the federal prison-protection program into the same town. The e-mail claims the protection system is being overwhelmed with the release of about 400 inmates, and because it doesn't have offices in every jurisdiction it has no choice. But inspectors tell this magazine "snitches will snitch" on one another if the price is right. "All it takes is a phone call and a snitch could make $2 million from someone who wants somebody dead," says an inspector. "No one will know he made the phone call and he can still stay in the program." Another inspector adds, "They are putting those witnesses in danger and us the field trash too."

Insight also has learned that a senior official and at least one administrative staff member are alleged to have changed files and downgraded or eliminated cities long considered "danger zones," relabeling them as safe for witnesses, according to WITSEC inspectors. It is not clear whether the file deletions are an attempt to shield embarrassing information from auditors or a practice in place to cut corners and save money. Frustrated WITSEC inspectors say they plan to report it to the IG auditors. "It's dangerous," says one inspector, who along with others during the course of this magazine's nearly two-year investigation into the program agreed to speak only on the condition of anonymity. "They are living too close to danger zones. They are actually relocating them in some instances to danger areas."

A source familiar with these allegations believes witnesses no longer are moved far enough away to be safe because of budget constraints in the program. This in turn raises questions about what happened to some $60 million earmarked for the WITSEC inspectors. Where that money has gone is a sore subject among those in the program who believe the funds are being transferred to other U.S. Marshals Service programs.

Whether these allegations will be included in the IG's final report is of grave concern to those directly involved, but should the Senate Judiciary Committee decide to hold hearings, it can request all field notes, interviews, documents and e-mail correspondence to evaluate whether the report is a reflection of what the Justice Department actually learned. The audit, which has been a well-guarded secret, has been downplayed by senior Justice Department officials, who have characterized it as "routine." But insiders in the program say the auditors' probing questions and patience in listening to a long series of complaints suggest this may be the first sweeping audit of WITSEC in years.

An IG auditor tells Insight that inspectors were intrigued that there was only one study concerning 55 witnesses who died in the program between the years 1970 and 1978. One auditor was dumbfounded as to why no one in Congress had ordered an additional study to determine the causes of death of witnesses who have died in the program since 1978. According to the 1978 study, only two of the 55 deaths were considered suspicious, and they later were ruled suicides. All the others were said to have died of natural causes. It is unclear whether the current audit will review witness deaths, but it appears quite clear that the IG office wants to include that 1978 study in its audit report and, if so, it is likely the IG will make a recommendation for further investigation.

Though there has been no mandated study of witness deaths since 1978, there have been countless General Accounting Office probes, a half-dozen congressional and Justice Department reviews, and one high-profile congressional hearing concerning the WITSEC program since it was created by the Organized Crime Act in 1970. The highly publicized hearing was held in 1980 by the Senate Governmental Affairs Permanent subcommittee on Investigations. That hearing, nearly a quarter-century ago, was led by then senator Sam Nunn (D-Ga.). It heard numerous complaints from protected witnesses who charged that their security had been breached by "careless actions" and that for years they were unable to obtain documents to establish credit or hold a job. Many of these same complaints are being heard today. In fact, according to a 1980 WITSEC survey, about one-fourth of protected witnesses claimed that if given a choice they would not enter the program.

While WITSEC continues to boast that no witness has been killed while remaining in the program, the feeling among many inspectors is that it is a matter of time before a breakdown in the faltering system results in tragedy. One former WITSEC inspector put it this way: "Witnesses are not getting the services they used to get. They are left alone when they should not be. I am damn surprised that no one has gotten killed. It is out of control."

Such frustration among the inspectors has grown immensely even since Insight last reported their concerns. Meanwhile, they have been warned not to talk to the media, and specifically not to talk to this magazine. About 20 of them quietly have organized to find legal representation, which could lead to the second lawsuit filed against the government by inspectors in the program. The first lawsuit charged that the program was not adequately funded to carry out the responsibilities assigned to it by Congress. This was dismissed seven years ago and never made it to trial.

Although WITSEC inspectors believe their first lawsuit failed because of its narrow purpose, it is likely that the next lawsuit will be broader and will detail serious security flaws and possible criminal behavior that the inspectors hope will lead to immediate reform. In the meantime, the allegations that initially surfaced seven years ago have not gone away. WITSEC inspectors continue to charge that they have been deprived of the necessary training and equipment to carry out their mission effectively.

Some of their complaints include the following:

* Scores of inspectors have quit the force and have not been adequately replaced with trained or seasoned professionals. In the last decade 115 inspector positions have been eliminated. Some charge that the program should tap into the experience of retired WITSEC inspectors to teach newcomers the tricks of the trade, but instead training is brief and not comprehensive.

* WITSEC offices in Buffalo, N.Y., and other major metropolitan cities have been shut down while others have become one-man shops. Last year there were fewer than 200 inspectors and administrative assistants left in the program to coordinate and handle about 21,000 protected witnesses and their dependents. But subtract "safe sites" such as in Washington, where witnesses are transferred first, and there are only about 85 inspectors left to handle the field. In addition, some inspectors claim that the decision to assign them also to handle numerous U.N. functions, Drug Enforcement Administration cases, and White House activities has spread them so thin as to endanger the witnesses they protect.

* WITSEC inspectors are not trained in either language or culture to handle witnesses against Middle East terrorists. Not one inspector speaks Arabic.

* Many inspectors drive around in Ford Crown Victorias about seven years old with more than 100,000 miles on them. Many inspectors are still using slow and antiquated computers, although some recently received new laptops.

* While WITSEC inspectors earn about $80,000 a year, many are forced to pay out of their own pocket for travel expenses associated with their job, including even telephone calls.

* WITSEC inspectors charge that Congress deliberately has been lied to by senior officials. For example, when funds were being appropriated for the U.S. Marshals Service, Congress was told large sums would go to increase the force to 300 inspectors. It never happened.

Even though the IG appears to be taking note of these complaints, it remains to be seen whether the audit will prompt congressional hearings. WITSEC inspectors expect managers to try to thwart such hearings by blaming complaints on a few disgruntled employees, but the numbers Insight has seen suggest that is not the case. As one inspector repeatedly told this magazine, "We're field trash to them that's all we are, field trash."
