RE: NORJAK (A) OO: Seattle
RE: JAMES BRYANT COFFELT, aka Jack Bryant Coffelt, Bryant Arthur James Coffelt (TN) [REDACTED]
Re Seattle airtel to Bureau dated 8/17/77.
As Seattle is well aware, Agents of the Los Angeles Division have interviewed [REDACTED] on several occasions. During the initial contact, he indicated that he had retained an ex-FBI Agent to assist him [REDACTED] of COFFELT, but refused to identify this individual. During a later contact on 5/6/77, he identified [REDACTED] [REDACTED] a retired FBI Agent from Newport Beach, California. Subsequent efforts to identify [REDACTED] in Orange County and Los Angeles, California, met with negative results.
[REDACTED] is a name-dropper, has a wild imagination, and is frequently loose with the truth. It is the opinion of the interviewing agents that the only official information [REDACTED] has concerning this matter is an FBI identification record relating to COFFELT, which he may have obtained from [REDACTED] [REDACTED] if he does, in fact, have one.
