Ind. 46806 - pe. duly 26, 1969 MrJ.Edgar Hoover ; Federal Bureau of Investigation Washington, D.G.. i. O ‘ Dear Mr. Hoover: - Zdbiv ALED PY? | Sev dea ge I would like to know if I or any average American citizén would receive the same sentence as Mr. Kennedy did for his mest recent traffic violation? If my drivers license had been suspended. once before for drunken driving, would my statement after an involuntary manshaughter accident be taken for the truth with- out further investigation or is this reserved just for the rich and people in politics? A man thet can't handle his own affairs regardless of the crisis surely is questionabhe to head committees and ete. for our Government. . . Further, this incident affirms my new formed opinion that the laws in our land are made to protect certain individuals and i punish others severly. Thus, the laws in our country have been made so that they can be administered. according to your wealth, ; name or politics. For example: Mr. Hoffa has been thrown in jail and degraded for 1 items thet are not as one-tenth severe as this incident. If Mr. ; , | Hoffa had been involved in this accident instead of Mr. Kennedy, n- do you think his statement that everything was on the up-and-up would have been regarded as the truth without further investigation? Another example of this justice was shown when Mr. Powell of New York was not placed in jail for stealing from the hard working citizens of this country. If I wouldn't pay my taxes (which is a form of stealing from the Government) they would not overlook it but punish me to the fullest extent Since I am not a , politician, wealthy or in this case a negro. I feel further éxplanetion is needed and I would appreciete hear~ ing your comments. Sty, Sincerel pk] im pees Tp EDL A AZ as | 3 AUG 6 1969 lee | vcsose woneuses nesemne ec uy |
