Wikipedia says this: Morton H. Halperin (born June 13, 1938) is an American expert on foreign policy and a minor figure in the Nixon administration Watergate scandal. Halperin was listed on Nixon's enemies list.
SNIP And this:
He was a friend of Daniel Ellsberg. When Ellsberg was investigated in connection with the Pentagon Papers, suspicion fell on Halperin, who some Nixon aides believed had kept classified documents when he left government service. John Dean claimed that Jack Caulfield had told him of a plan to fire-bomb the Brookings Institution, Halperin's employer, to destroy Halperin's files.
