13-00000 | SECRET 28 August 1998 MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD SUBJECT: (S) Destruction of Surveillance Tapes 1. (S) There has been a long standing interest in locating the surveillance tapes that would have existed during the period that Oswald visited Mexico City. A thorough search has been conducted of the DO’s record system as well as the index to the retired records in an attempt to locate the tapes in question. We have discussed this with operational experts and the professional opinion is that it is most likely these tapes were never captured and returned to Headquarters for retention. The normal practice is to reuse the tapes and only save the transcripts that are made from the tapes. The time before the tapes are reused can be a very short. Messages between field stations and Headquarters use operational jargon and shortened sentence structures that can sometimes allow for misinterpretations. Thus, the reference to what was being sent to headquarters may not have intended to refer to the fact that actual tapes were being sent but rather the information from the tapes. 2. (S) In our search efforts we did locate tapes that were captured for the immediate time following the assassination. The fact that these tapes were captured and returned could allow for the fact that a few people recall that some tapes existed. WARNING NOTICE cL BY: (524343?

(TS) Destruction of Surveillance Tapes (U) Based upon the search efforts that were undertaken and the opinions of the operational experts, I have concluded that the tapes do not exist and were recycled under the normal course of business before any potential interest in them was identified. f . li f CVT | Fredrick C.
