Looks like I found something from the FBI on the Stennis shooter, on a site about the
FBI files on L Ron Hubbard and Scientology, of all places:
[LETTERHEAD INFO BLACKED OUT]
October 14, 1973 Federal Bureau of Investigation
Washington Office
Pennsylvania Ave. at 9th St., N.W.
Washington, D.C. Gentlemen: It has come to our attention that the assailant of Senator Stennis, Tyrone Marshall, and his companion, were present at Scientology and at the RAP houses on 19th St., N.W. the night of the attack. This information was disclosed in the reports of the trial, as well as the fact that the FBI had conducted an investigation of both Scientology and RAP. We would like to have access to your investigative report of both of these addresses. The Association is appearing as a party in two cases before the Board of Zoning Adjustment involving these two places which you have investigated, and wish to present for the record whatever facts you have developed. The first case, on Scientology, will be heard October 17, and the second, on RAP, will be heard November 14th. We would be grateful for your assistance in these matters. Sincerely, [SIGNATURE BLACKED OUT]

As of this post, that's the only mention of John Stennis and Tyrone Marshall (or Marshall, Tyrone) that comes up on Google. I found nothing at all on the shooting of Senator Stennis in searches of the FBI website. BTW, I'm flagging everyone who posted on this thread to this post, plus the regulars on the VVAW ping list. Freepmail me if you want on or off the regular list. Thanks. |
