He was then hired by District Attorney Raymond Baratta as a prosecutor in Dutchess County, New York, after interviewing and providing references from the FBI.[12] In 1966, he led a drug raid on the Hitchcock Estate (then occupied by Timothy Leary) in Millbrook, New York, leading to an unsuccessful trial. Although the case generated much publicity, other lawyers complained that Liddy received credit for something in which he played a relatively small role
Sheriff Quinnlan led the raids (The Mighty Quinn). I met a guy who was a deputy on the raids. He said when they organized before the raid they were encouraged to "beat up some hippies"
He started with DIAMOND. This was his plan to counter antiwar demonstrations at the Republican convention, at that time still scheduled for San Diego. Liddy contended the site was indefensible, so DIAMOND would kidnap the demonstration leaders before trouble occurred, drug them, spirit them over the nearby border to Mexico, and hold them until after the convention was over. These sudden disappearances Liddy labeled Nacht und Nebel — the night and fog of Nazi storm-trooper tactics. The charts listed Liddy operatives as a Special Action Group, an SS euphemism for death squad.
By Liddy’s account, John Mitchell interrupted to doubt whether such a team could operate the way Liddy proposed…Liddy went on to explain that his men included professional killers.To Mitchell’s question of where he would find such men, Liddy said they were from organized crime, and they did not come cheap. Mitchell commented, “Let’s not contribute any more than we have to to the coffers of organized crime.”
Liddy...plowed on. RUBY was to infiltrate spies into Democrat campaigns, including the nominee’s. COAL was a program to furnish money clandestinely to the campaign of black New York Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm [the first woman ever to announce for president]; Liddy says Mitchell ruled that out, saying that Nelson Rockefeller [then governor of New York] was “already taking care of that.” Then came EMERALD. This was for a “chase plane” to pursue the Democratic nominee’s airliner and buses and bug their radio communications. QUARTZ was to intercept microwave telephone traffic.
Liddy explained he already had an option to lease a houseboat in Miami Beach to which prostitutes in SAPPHIRE would lure top Democrats, and CRYSTAL, a communications center, would eavesdrop their pillow talk...
And so to the buggings. OPAL I-IV were four black bag jobs designed to place microphone surveillance as well as TOPAZ document photography teams in Muskie and McGovern headquarters in Washington, a Miami Beach hotel for the convention, and one reserve target of opportunity Mitchell might wish to designate...
There were two disruption operations: GARNET for outrageous demonstrations “supporting” Democratic candidates and TURQUOISE, which called for a Cuban commando team to sabotage the Democrats’ convention hall air-conditioning system during the worst of the midsummer heat.
Liddy closed with the spending flow chart, showing high initial outlays on equipment purchases, then the total budget: $1 million.
Liddy was a pioneer of sorts. Limbaugh stole, ran with the schtick and was a big enough of a shit human to realize that crazy,politics & entertainment meet very kindly at the crossroads.
