50. Memo of November 4, 1970, from John K. Greaney, Assistant General Counsel, CIA, NARA #104-10106-10374. Robert Sam Anson once claimed that two of the defendants in these kickback trials, John Larocca and Gabriel Mannarino, were acquitted in 1971 when “one of the star witnesses turned out to be the local head of the CIA” (Robert Sam Anson, “They’ve Killed the President” [New York: Bantam, 1975], 296). Anson told me that this witness was Brod, but I have found no court record of Brod’s testimony.

Angleton’s response suggests that he may have believed what Hank Messick and others later charged: that Lansky had somehow obtained protection from the bureau (Hank Messick, John Edgar Hoover [New York: David McKay, 1972], 229–31).
