...Blondie ("wrong" in his lexicon invariably means a black youth in a late-model car). "You stop him on no basis that could stand up in court. So you lie if you have to. You say he ran a stop sign or didn't signal or had a broken taillight that you break after you've determined he's bad. That makes the initial stop legal...
...main objectives will be to test the hypothesis that a second car may have been involved in the accident. In the hours after the crash, investigators found taillight fragments belonging to a Fiat Uno just inside the tunnel entrance, about 197 ft. from the main crash site. Last week police sources said that spectroscopic analysis of the paint samples taken from scratches on the Mercedes' right side showed that the paint could have come from a Fiat Uno. It may be another week before experts complete their analysis and confirm the results. But investigators were leaning toward the theory that...
...theory of a collision with a second car is supported by evidence collected just inside the tunnel entrance on the night of the accident. In addition to the Fiat Uno taillight fragments, investigators found pieces of the Mercedes' headlight and of the plastic housing of its right-rearview mirror. This debris was found near a 62-ft.-long skid mark that swerves from the right into the left lane. A short distance beyond that is the beginning of a 105-ft.-long skid mark that leads directly into the 13th pillar. All of which tends to support the theory...

Skidmarks, pieces of the Mercedes' headlight and scratches on its right side also support this idea, as does some eyewitness testimony...
...switched again. In the bugged car were a microphone and a tape recorder, which would be activated when the Soviet agent got into the driver's seat. What would the FBI do if the machine ran out of tape? An agent would walk up to the car, undo the taillight reflector, and replace the tape every few days. However, no arrests were made because the KGB's Pentagon target never responded to the Soviet's overtures...
