Date: Wed, 29 Jul 1991 17:34:18 CST From: Moderators Subject: File 8--Dr Ripco Summarizes his Legal Status since Sun Devil ((Moderators' note: We asked Dr Ripco to give a detailed summary of all that has changed in his legal status in the past 18 months. Following is his summary of what's changed)). Dear Jim: Sincerely, Dr Ripco +++ ((MODERATORS' NOTE: Dr Ripco's status on 1 August 1992 is identical to his status on May 8, 1990, the morning of the raid by the secret service and others. Although never charged, and although there is to date no evidence that he was involved in any criminal behavior, none of his equipment has been returned, he has not been contacted by law enforcement agents in over two years, he has not heard from attorneys he believed were helping him in the return of his equipment, and he has received no information about when, if ever, he can reclaim his equipment. In short, he has no idea, nor has he been able to learn, what's happening. Kafka's The Trial should be required reading for everybody.
