[REDACTED] advised that Mrs. MERIT has told [REDACTED] that she sends part of her Social Security payments to her son, who is in prison in Louisiana. He stated he knows Mrs. MERIT just barely gets by financially, and there is no indication that she has access to any money.
[REDACTED] expressed his complete willingness to cooperate with the FBI in this matter and stated he would remain alert to any information which would indicate MERIT should be considered a suspect. He stated he would immediately notify the Los Angeles Office of any information coming to his attention through [REDACTED] contact with MERIT's mother.
---
It is noted that several attempts to interview MERIT's mother in 1971 at Long Beach were met with a very uncooperative attitude. In view of this attitude and [REDACTED] willingness to cooperate, no attempt is being made to interview AGNAS MERIT at this time.
---
It is suggested the enclosed photographs of MERIT be utilized by the Seattle Division to evaluate MERIT as a possible suspect.
---
The setting forth of additional leads will be left to the discretion of Seattle, it being noted that MERIT was apparently dating one [REDACTED] year-old white female in Birmingham, Alabama, during October and early November 1971, and was in Birmingham prior to Thanksgiving Day 1971, "maybe as much as two weeks prior to Thanksgiving." He also reportedly borrowed a car from one [REDACTED] in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on 11/29/71.
