*   By David Johnston, July 16, 1995
*   
*   Mr. Pott's former subordinate Michael Kahoe admitted he destroyed key
*   documents on the Ruby Ridge assault. The Justice department reports
*   documents were destroyed and missing. "We are troubled by the apparent
*   lack of a system to preserve such critical records."
*   
*   The Justice Department, in a March 18, 1993 memo stated, "the FBI's
*   intransigence appears to EMANATE from Larry Potts level OR ABOVE."

Larry Potts was a buddy of Louis Freeh. Within the FBI, these special
people are called "FOL" - Friends of Louie. [NYT 5/11/97]

Janet Reno (who had veto power over the promotion) testified what happened
at Ruby Ridge wasn't enough to cause her to veto the promotion, foreshadowing
her actions at Waco.

After two months, controversy (as opposed to events) over Potts' role in
Ruby Ridge prompted Freeh to remove him from the position, to politically
cover his own tush.

Potts and four other top FBI officials have been suspended while a federal
criminal probe investigates the destruction of documents related to the
incident.

A total of twelve agents were disciplined. None have yet been prosecuted.

The Federal government subsequently named after a U.S. Marshal who was
killed, but who also shot Randy Weaver's son dead in the back: a new
Marshal
