ROBERT SUTTHOFF because of the fact he had been unable to get in touch with the SAC or ASAC. He told SUTTHOFF that one of the detectives had some information from an informant that might be important in this case.

I sent SAs [REDACTED] and STEELE over to the Police Department immediately and they subsequently advised me that TIELSCH had introduced them to [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] [REDACTED] of the Seattle PD.
