An anonymous telephone call had been received in New Orleans relating to the marginally quoted subject and previous UK enquiries had tentatively identified the caller. Initial enquiry showed_D rah MILLINGTON to be away from her Brighton address on business. She leventually contacted me on 31 August 1989 and readily admitted telephoning Joseph GIARRUSO in March 1989. During the conversation I was able to elicit the following. She was previously married to an American and between 1966 and 1969 she lived in the New Orleans area working as: an assistant physio- therapist at the Touro Infirmary. Through general conversation she discovered that one of the patients was the wife of a New Orleans attorney and that the law firm, for whatever reason, had a secretarial problem. As she was able to type she offered her services at weekends when necessary. Having had no training as a legal secretary, much of what she typed meant nothing to her. After all this time she can only say that it related to money being sent to her (the mother) and it seemed to refer in some way to President KENNEDY's assassination. She initially considered informing the authorities but decided against it as she didn't wish to bring herself to attention. She denied ever being interviewed by the New Orleans Police Department during the Clay SHAW trial. She was aware of the nature of this trial and was aware of the name Clay SHAW within the attorneys office but she cannot now remember in what context. One letter did however, which was to the mother of Lee Harvey OSWALD. She cannot remember the attornesv.ts_nameamtrt oe cnt — / ANY - \s uS

A controversial documentary concerning the assassination of President KENNEDY had been broadcast on British television in March 1989 which caused her to remember the events of many years ago. She became so incensed by the subsequent debate conducted in the media that she decided to telephone New Orleans to see if Joseph GIARRUSO was still Chief of Police. When in New Orleans she had felt sorry for him over the criticism he received after Clay SHAW's acquittal. She seeks no publicity or further involvement. In fact she was somewhat aghast at me contacting her as her intention was to remain anonymous . Enquiries of Sussex Police show that she’ lives in a good class area of Brighton and nothing to her detriment could be found in local records. At this stage there is nothing to indicate that the events didn't happen. It was, however, impossible to assess the true extent of her knowledge. Should it be considered necessary I will attempt to take the matter further. I ask that this report be forwarded to the Legal Attache, US Embassy, London for his information.
