The President, Cocaine, and the CIA
A Matter of Irrelevance
by Chip Tatum
Codename: Pegasus
U.S. Federal Judge Henry Lee Adams, Jr. ruled on May 6, 1996,
that federal documents which reveal the involvement of top
government officials and the CIA in a drug manufacturing and
trafficking cartel are not relevant in the defense of a Florida
couple. Transcripts reveal that defense attorneys argued during
a CIPA (Classified Information Procedures Act) hearing held in
U.S. District Court in Tampa, Florida, that the defendants, D.G.
"Chip" Tatum and his wife Nancy Tatum, were targeted by the U.S.
Department of Justice, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the
White House in an attempt to discredit and quiet the couple
concerning Mr. Tatum's knowledge and direct involvement with
William J. Clinton, George Bush, Manuel Noriega, Oliver North,
William Barr and others involved in cocaine manufacturing and
trafficking between Honduras, Panama and Arkansas from 1983 to
1988.
Transcripts additionally reveal Tampa attorney Dan Daly's vain
attempt to impress on Federal Judge Henry Lee Adams and U.S.
Prosecutors, the threat to our national security that these
heinous acts by top government officials represent. Mr. Daly
stated, "Without exception, Mr. Tatum is probably the only man
still alive that can tie these men (Clinton, Bush, Barr, et al.)
to their criminal acts. There is no doubt, your honor, if you
look at the facts, that this case is not about fraud. The United
States suffered no loss at the hands of Mr. and Mrs. Tatum. It's
about government corruption at the very top levels of our justice
system."
Neither did the fact that William Luschinger of Virginia, a CIA
operative and friend of Oliver North, was the government's prime
witness against the Tatums, nor the fact that any offer by the
defense to produce CIA employees and deep cover operatives to
testify as to their knowledge of the obvious obstruction of
justice being perpetrated against the Tatums, cause Judge Adams
to sway in his decision. "I'm going to disallow any testimony or
evidence concerning this governments' involvement, specifically
involvement of William Clinton, George Bush, or the CIA, in drug
trafficking. It is not relevant. If there is nothing else,
let's go and choose the jury," Judge Adams stated as he dismissed
the group from his chambers where the hearing was held *in
camera* [in chambers] (outside of the public's eye).
Evidence offered by the defendants' included a taped conversation
between a retired Mossad agent who was in the employ of General
Manuel Noriega and Governor Clinton's Chief of Security. This
taped conversation outlined the CIA's Honduran manufacturing
facilities, capabilities, and who was involved to include
specific duties in the cartel. The tape has been transcribed and
included in an evidence package entitled "The Tatum Chronicles."
The Chronicles contain not only the transcribed audio tape, but
also the transcription of events recorded by a camera mounted on
a U.S. military aircraft delivering coolers marked "medical
supplies" to Little Rock Airport. This video shows then-Governor
Clinton receiving one of the two coolers. The actual contents of
the cooler, as recorded earlier in the video tape, was three
kilos of cocaine and a large amount of cash.
Perhaps the most frightening part of this government cover-up is
the response of top politicians at both the state and federal
level. Governor Lawton Chiles, after reviewing an evidence
package from the Tatums, both Florida residents, stated, "These
are not matters under my jurisdiction or influence." (However,
in 1986 then-Senator Lawton Chiles was given this same
information and, at that time, he stated it was a military matter
and beyond his scope.)
[Tatum lists top government officials and others who he says
basically did nothing after receiving the evidence package.
Among those named by Tatum are:
Janet Reno
Harry Browne
Ross Perot
Jack Kemp
Rep. Wm. F. Clinger, Jr.
Senator Sam Nunn
Senator Connie Mack
Senator Charles S. Robb
Senator John Glenn
Senator Thomas Daschle
Senator Barbara Boxer
Kenneth Starr]
To federal judges and top government officials, the trafficking
of cocaine to our children... *is* *a* *matter* *of*
