DOZIER CASE) (NOTAL)
1. (SNF )
PARA 2, REF A, ATTRIBUTES TO USASETAF AN EVALUATION OF
INFORMATION PROVIDED BY AN UNIDENTIFIED PSYCHIC RELEVANT TO THE
POSSIBLE KIDNAPPING OF TWO U.S. GENERAL OFFICERS ON 15 JANUARY
1982 AS "THE MOST RELIABLE RECEIVED TO DATE. "
THIS INFORMATION WAS
THE BASIS FOR THE ISSUANCE OF A DIA ALERT NOTICE (REF A) UPON WHICH A
SUBSEQUENT USAREUR ALERT NOTICE (REF B) WAS DISSEMINATED.
2. (SNF ) CG, USASETAF'S COMMENTS REGARDING THE EVALUATION OF THE
PSYCHIC SOURCE AND INFORMATION AS CONTAINED IN REF C ARE CITED.
( QUOTE ) 1. (C)
REF MSG (B) INCORRECTLY CHARACTERIZES SETAF
ASSESSMENT OF PSYCHIC SOURCE WHO REPORTS POSSIBLE KIDNAPPING ATTEMPTS
OF U.S. GENERAL OFFICERS ON 15 JAN 82.
THIS HQ DOES NOT CHARACTERIZE
SOURCE AS EITHER RELIABLE OR VALUABLE.
2.
(C) PSYCHIC IN QUESTION
HAS NOT PROVIDED THIS CMD WITH SUFFICIENT DETAIL RE PLACES AND
INDIVIDUALS TO CAUSE GOI AND US INVESTIGATORS TO ATTEMPT TO CONFIRM
INFORMATION.
WHILE THE INVESTIGATION CONTINUES, TO DATE, NO POSITIVE
RESULTS HAVE BEEN REALIZED BASED ON SOURCE'S INFORMATION (END
QUOTE ).
3.
( SNF )
THERE IS GROWING CONCERN RELATIVE TO THE PROBATIVE VALUE
OF PSYCHIC REPORTS IN THE DOZIER CASE. WHILE PSYCHIC REPORTS SHOULD
BE CONSIDERED AS BEING POTENTIALLY USEFUL IN THE INVESTIGATION IN
PROGRESS, ONLY THE MOST COMPLETE, DETAILED, AND PLAUSIBLE REPORTS
SHOULD BE FORWARDED. THIS CONCERN HAS BEEN EXPRESSED IN SETAF SITREP
#27 (REF D) AN EXTRACT OF WHICH IS QUOTED AS FOLLOWS: (QUOTE) E.
(S/NF) PSYCHIC REPORTS. VERONA OFFICIALS ARE EXTREMELY SKEPTICAL
OF PSYCHIC REPORTS RECEIVED FROM U.S. AUTHORITIES. LOCAL INVESTI-
GATORS WANT ONLY REPORTS WITH SPECIFIC ADDRESSEES (OR SIMILAR SPECI-
FIC DATA) THAT CAN BE CHECKED OUT IN A STREET DIRECTORY. NOTE:
TO
IMPROVE CREDIBILITY OF REPORTS SETAF G2 IN CONJUNCTION WITH DOD
INTELLIGENCE TEAM IN ROME AFTER SCREENING REPORTS ARE TO PASS ONLY
THOSE THAT APPEAR MOST PLAUSIBLE IN LIGHT OF AVAILABLE INFORMATION.
IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ITALIAN AUTHORITIES HAVE AND ARE USING BOTH
ANALYTICAL AND OPERATIONAL SOURCES TO CHECK SUCH REPORTS GIVEN TO
THEM BY U. S. SOURCES AND SOMETIMES THINK THAT SUCH RESOURCES COULD
BE BETTER USED FOR OTHER PURPOSES. (END QUOTE).
