The return of the curious "Shooting Star" saga

     Back in 2012, I wrote a series of posts about the mysterious sinking, in 1974, of the yacht "Shooting Star," which took the life of Tom Fuentes' then boss OC Supervisor Ron Caspers, arguably the seminal figure in OC political corruption of the last 50 years.
     We've just received new information about the Shooting Star story—in the form of FBI files. We'll report on that information soon.
     To get up to speed on the story, check out: The saga of the “Shooting Star”

I'm really excited to see your take on the files. I find it interesting that the stuff they sent me was the least controversial of the 10 pages they committed. Also very interesting to see some of your theories in this blog confirmed in the papers.
