Dressed in an impeccably tailored blue blazer, striped shirt and blue-and-white tie - the same outfit he had worn on his return to Athens- Caramanlis appeared to a tumultuous welcome and a display of fireworks that was far and away the most colorful and expensive of the three rallies.

Sprague asked why FBI agents had found Boyle's fingerprints on the document. The courtroom stirred at the news, which Sprague had dramatically withheld until Boyle's testimony...
