Baxley did not return calls to his office. FBI agents were scheduled to arrive in Montgomery yesterday to investigate Alex- ander’ Ss connection to Edward’ 3 death. Many doubt Alexander's confession. Jack Shows, an investigator for Baxley during the bombing probe, said the state investigated Alexander’s possible part in the bombing but found nothing linking hirn to the scene. Morris Dees, founder of Southern Poverty Law Center, is also skeptical. “We know that Henry Alexander was in- dicted for bombing black churches in Mang- tomery,” Dees said. “I think that he’s con- fused about which church bombing.” Dees, however, wants to know Alexander’s involvement with the FBI. He believes that the agency’s network of informants could have thwarted the Birmingham church bombing case. Dees said Baxley told him that the FBI discouraged him from pursuing Alexander because he was one of their top informants. “If he (Alexander) was a paid infermant with the FBI and they were aware of all these (crimes he committed), I want to know,” he said. A FBI representative in Washington said the bureau does not comment on pending cases. Bringing additional conspirators in the church bombing to justice may not accompl- ish anything after 30 years, Hamlin said. “If there’s anyone else who shared in the bombing of Sixteenth Street, they’re up in age and I don’t know what it would do other than to say, yes, we know these people were involved,” Hamlin said.

The name of Alabama needs to be cleared.”
