SU'JECT Carter Administration Suing John Stockwell
JACK ANDERSON: Well, the Carter Administration is
suing former CIA agent John Stockwell for violating his secrecy
agreement with the agency. Stockwell wrote the book "In Search
of Enemies," which exposed the spy agency's secret operations
in Angola. Now the government wants him to turn over any money
he has made on the book as sort of a fine.
But I've learned that a deal may be in the works.
Stockwell has offered to submit future writings to the CIA for
pre-publication clearance if the government will drop its case
against him. If not, Stockwell says, he'll be bankrupted.
