For clarification, and what he's talking about is publishing a document like this and saying;

U.S. Customs says they received a call from my father in March or April 1976. They stated that my father told them he anticipated "getting into trouble." How could my father call someone at U.S. Customs if he was in Israel, and, in a letter to us my father said he had no money to make any calls? And, in that letter he wrote my mother asking her to contact Frank Sturgis for him? I believe part of this document is to accuse my father of working on his own accord had the assassination took place. In the letter my father sent us says, "my [ex-boss] may call you Scott on your birthday his name is Steve, he is with U.S. Customs." Could this be Steve from U.S. Customs who's reporting on my father, and who's willing to jeopardize my father's career? This document says, "He was not working for United States Customs [at the time] of his trip to Israel." Whoops! Did the government just admit my father worked for them, but went rogue? This helps explain what my father said, his [ex-boss] from U.S. Customs, Steve, would contact me. Was Customs just a cover for what he really did? And, how could a man without a country work for some three letter agency for the United States? Unless, he was recruited to be an assassin? Assassins; A man without a country.

I suppose this part of history should never get told right? You're the reader, I'm all ears, you tell me!

Having spent a lot of time with such government documents from that period, I know that they can lie [intentionally, or by accident - both]. Documents are often created to create a false story/legend if needed - other times they are 100 accurate information. Interesting would be what other documents the FBI has as to their investigation on this report. 'anticipates getting into trouble' certainly sounds like intelligence monkey business, but doesn't hint of what kind. I'd have to check, but I think around 1976 was about when Kerr McGee corporation was given a secret green light to send enriched plutonium to Israel for their nuclear program - which got Karen Silkwood killed and others too. While some covert operatives seem to work 'rogue' few do [some do though]. Usually, they are still tied to one or more three letter agencies, but are said to be 'rogue' to be deniable about their activities and the consequences of what they are doing. It also makes it easier to 'eliminate' them if needed - or if that was part of the plan. Having a false passport is somewhat routine in spookdom, but not easy to do without great connections to big agencies. Fiorini was joined at the hip to CIA, and certainly anyone involved in the Watergate break-in was not 'rogue'...even if they all were made to appear so! Customs was often used as a cover for CIA, FBI, DIA, other agencies. It is a very interesting document, but in and of itself it leaves more questions than answers. Have you pushed FBI for all documents they have on your father? CIA too? Customs too? NSA too? It would likely take a FOIA lawyer to help on that - some will do an interesting case for free or little, but others charge a good deal. Just some thoughts off the top of my head.
