I have gone to the FBI with a lot more information than I am giving here but have the feeling they are not interested enough to put much stock in my story and probably consider the case closed.
I am not going to give up though, until I find somebody who is willing to listen to me, if it's the last thing I do. For I am sure Mooney is their man as I am sure that this is a typewriter I am writin this on. Someday the truth will come out and my story will be vindica because I know I am telling the truth. I could tell a lot more about the set-up and workings of the Syndicate and who the members are than I have let on so far. But [REDACTED] here at home and [REDACTED] on Main Street and [REDACTED] "when I was still driving a car - so, I may not live long enough to tell much more. Let me just say here now that in spite of their nice smiles, Mooney and cohorts are brutal, cruel and a menace to society to whom the live of their [guess: outward] enemies and those who "know too much", whether they are partners or not, do not mean anything. There's entirely too much shooting going on in and around the "Nest" which includes and area of I don't know how many miles around [REDACTED] It stretches half across the country in all direction. The "Syndicate" enjoys the protection of all local Law-enforcement agencies around here and has members in the police-forces as spies and protectors, one of which is

I can't tell you my name. If I would, my life wouldn't be worth two cents. I may not even be found dead-but simply disappear without a trace, buried in a gravel quarry or in a 30-ft. deep watery grave with a cement block tied to my bones . [guess: Down] in a nearby [REDACTED] just as others have disappeared here, over the years.
Thank you for listening. Believe me, I have told you the truth and know what I am talking about.
