Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2013/02/05: CIA-RDP90M00005R000600040038-6 Central Intelligence Agency `6 JAN 1989 The Vice President The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Reference is made to correspondence dated 19 October 1987 from Mr. R. Marc Nuttle, Campaign Director, Americans for Robertson for President Committee, and my response dated 29 October 1987, copies of which were provided for your information. This correspondence related to a forged memorandum, the substance of which was to orchestrate a "dirty tricks" campaign against Mr. Robertson. In connection with this matter, we have been advised by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that an individual has confessed to impersonating an officer of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). This individual, who met with staff members of the Americans for Robertson Committee, and another person associated with him, have admitted that they have no current or past association with the CIA. Our records bear this out. The motivation of these individuals is unknown to us at this time. The FBI has advised that the case will be presented shortly to an Assistant United States Attorney for a decision regarding criminal prosecution. This Agency appreciates the efforts of the FBI agents in bringing this matter to a speedy resolution and stands ready to cooperate in any subsequent legal proceedings. Sincerely yours, William H.
