Case File: JFK Papers Reveal CIA “Family Jewels” Spying Operations in United States

2022 Release
2025 Release


Description

[edit | edit source]

A little more than a month after the FBI was first informed of parts of the CIA’s “Family Jewels” findings that could implicate the Bureau in CIA misdeeds, the intelligence division’s William Crager sends the assistant director a review of parts of the report that had subsequently been shared with the FBI.

Like Document 1, this memo includes a section describing how President Kennedy, Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Attorney General Robert Kennedy were aware of a CIA operation that involved “breaking and entering and the removal of documents from an unknown location in Washington, D.C.,” that was later identified (in Document 3) as “a French diplomatic establishment.”

Another newly available section of the memo concerns Project SALVAGE, referring to the CIA’s “custodianship of an FBI monitoring post in New York City targeted against the United Nations.” The operation was “done at the request of a high official of the Bureau who desired to maintain the capabilities, despite the fact that the FBI Director had ordered the operation terminated.”

Also newly declassified is a section about clandestine surveillance of the Chilean Embassy. The operation was “initiated at the request of CIA” under code name “WUDOOR” and “ran intermittently during the period May, 1971, to February, 1973,” according to the memo.
