Cn Office Memorandum + onirep states GOVERNMENT TO : DIRECTOR, FBI (63-4296) DATE: April 20, 1960 ras SAC, LOS ANGELES (94-558) A Cent SUBJECT: / “"End This Confusion" and A The editor of the "Herald Express" today demands that the law governing wiretapping mist be amended..."to protect the rights of law-abiding citizens; and amended in such clear language that the shield of ‘civil rights! - cannot be employed by hoodlums, murderers, kidnapers,." He points out that evidence obtained by wire- tapping cannot be used in federal cases, and other courts, state and federal, have held that this prohibition extends to states in which the laws permit the use of wiretapping for gathering evidence in criminal cases, "Without legal wiretapping, law enforcement agencies would be powerless to deal with many kinds of criminal activities, and the imposition of the federal stricture upon the states would, in the opinion of police and prosecutors, result in a ‘gigantic legal jailbreak,'" The decision of a U.S. Appeals Court that federal courts should not interfere with state prosecutions in which state-approved wiretap information is used as evidence, is acclaimed by the "Herald Express" editor because it "returned the element of common sense to the law." However, he does not feel that this ruling is enough. He thinks the ; Federal Communications Act, Section 605, needs to be spelled ‘ out "so that even Judges and justices can understand it. "It was never meant to protect the criminal, but has been so construed in hair-splitting decisions." 3 - Los Angeles \ ww! - REC. 95 63 ATC -6- EVE FHT: pk be N \ (5) j Docld: 3230432768 Page 2?
