Summary  
The document contains correspondence from Eugene H. Brading (also known as Jim Braden) to Senator Frank Church regarding allegations of his involvement in the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert F. Kennedy. Brading claims he was falsely accused due to a book by Peter Noyes, which links him to assassination plots. He asserts these accusations ruined his life and forced him to leave California. The letter references a tabloid article ("Tattler") alleging a former CIA agent planned JFK's assassination, with Brading stating the operation was carried out by others. He describes being present in Dallas on November 22, 1963, during JFK’s assassination and interacting with U.S. Probation Office staff, including Roger Carroll. Brading denies any ties to organized crime or Mafia activities and requests an investigation into the CIA agent mentioned in the tabloid. The text also includes a separate section titled "SECTION That Cracks (Kemedy C.C.C.)" by John Moulder, which appears unrelated to the main content but is included as part of the document.
