I was incredibly frustrated listening to this. The government worker starts off by treating him as insane, demanding proof while also refusing to listen to him. Further into the conversation he becomes incredibly patronizing, seems like he shares the "laugh" with co-workers, and even hands off the call to someone who seems to be a child. I dont care how incredulous these claims are, he needs to do his due diligence and treat people with respect.
I did a little digging, he WAS an informant in the Pandelios case, as found in; http://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2016/08/30/14-56946.pdf but I cant find anything to corroborate any of his bigger claims. He does sound genuine and has a ton of details about local hollywood in the 80s.
I think so. Pacwest took a similar hit, as well as mhau (mhua?) Both are suspicious.
