...101° heat, FBI agents swarmed over an earthen dam on Olen Barrage's Old Jolly Farm, six miles southwest of Philadelphia, Miss. Through the scrub pines and bitterweed, they bulldozed a path to the dam, then brought up a lumbering dragline whose huge bucket shovel began chewing a V-shaped wedge out of the 25-ft.-high levee. Twenty feet down, the shovel uncovered the fully clothed, badly decomposed bodies of three young men, lying side by side in a pocket of red clay. They had been dumped there while the dam was still being built, and in the weeks...
...three young men never made it back to Meridian. Two days later, the burned wreck of their blue Ford station wagon was found twelve miles northeast of Philadelphia. While an army of FBI men and 400 sailors took up a painstaking ten-county search, many Mississippians preferred to believe that their disappearance was all a hoax. "They could be in Cuba," said Governor Paul Johnson airily. "They're just hiding and trying to cause a lot of bad publicity," pshawed Neshoba Sheriff L. A. Rainey...
Brutally Beaten. Though the FBI declined to admit it, the break apparently came after agents offered to pay $25,000 for inside information.

At dawn in the leafy, colonial town of Leesburg, Va., local officers, state police and federal agents surrounded two buildings that house the headquarters of Right-Wing Extremist Lyndon LaRouche. In Quincy, Mass., seven FBI agents entered a branch office of Caucus Distributors Inc., a LaRouche-run company, and seized documents. Later the same day a federal grand jury in Boston handed up a 117-count indictment charging ten defendants with obstruction of justice and more than $1 million in credit-card fraud related...
...damage suit rather than submit to a probe of his personal wealth. Nevertheless, the indictment says LaRouche discussed the credit-card case last year, telling a subordinate, "Just keep stalling, stall and appeal, stall and appeal." At a detention hearing for two of the defendants last week, an FBI agent testified that LaRouche once reportedly said of a prosecutor who was investigating the case, "The s.o.b. does not deserve to live. He should get a bullet between the eyes...
