STATI STAT Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/02/23: CIA-RDP91-00587R000100160014-1 MEDIA REPORT RE CIA CONTRACT EMPLOYEE A media report today suggests that there was something sinister involving the Agency and the files of the House Assassinations Committee. I want to assure you that this is simply not the case. Our investigations revealed an error in judgment by a contract employee serving as a custodian for CIA material with the Committee. He acted alone and out of curiosity, and was dismissed. STANSFIELD TURNER Director Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/02/23: CIA-RDP91-00587R000100160014-1
