EP. 20: FULL FIELD INVESTIGATION PT. 2
Listen now
Description
Don Sikorski continues dissecting what we’re calling the ‘Origin Document’ of the FBI’s investigation into Biggie’s murder, and this is where it gets interesting. FBI agent Phil Carson is outlining to his FBI bosses, the confidential informants, confidential sources, and witnesses to interview. Now, one caveat: in the world that any FBI agent steps into there are red herrings, the hiding and misdirection of truth, and to be clear, these documents are not gospel; but they do show the directions they were looking in and what people who were insiders of Death Row, the LAPD and this dark underworld were saying transpired. These documents contain information from upwards of 15 People, 15 sources of information - NOT one informant, or source. Needless to say, this Origin Document led to the FBI opening a full field investigation into potential LAPD involvement in the murder of Christopher Wallace. Learn more about your ad choices.
