From Vince Bugliosi's RECLAIMING HISTORY: (Footnotes on CD) A former Chicago Secret Service agent, Abraham Bolden, told HSCA staff investigators that shortly before November 2, the FBI sent a Teletype message to the Chicago Secret Service office stating that there would be an attempt on Kennedy’s life in Chicago on November 2 by a four-man hit team using highpowered rifles (HSCA Record 180-10070-10273, January 19, 1978, pp.2–6). The HSCA said it “was unable to document the existence of the alleged assassination team. Specifically, no agent who had been assigned to Chicago confirmed any aspect of Bolden’s version.” The HSCA said that “one agent did state there had been a threat in Chicago during that period [not uncommon, of course], but he was unable to recall details.” The HSCA concluded that Bolden’s story was of “questionable authenticity.” In 1964, Bolden was prosecuted and convicted of conspiring to sell official information in a counterfeiting case and was sentenced to six years in prison.
