Janet Reno

Wilcher was interviewed by Carl Stern, Reno's public relations man, regarding the contents of the letter.

1938–2016 · Miami, Florida

Janet Reno served as the Attorney General of the United States. She is included here in connection with the death of Paul Wilcher, a Washington D.C. attorney who had been investigating the October Surprise incident and the INSLAW case. Wilcher hand-delivered a 100-page letter to Reno on May 21, 1993, claiming that holdover DOJ employees from the Reagan-Bush era were responsible for government cover-ups.1

Wilcher was interviewed by Carl Stern, Reno's public relations man, regarding the contents of the letter. After Wilcher's death, Sarah McClendon and Garby Leon wrote letters to Reno, urging her to investigate Wilcher's death due to its disturbing parallels with Danny Casolaro's death and the implications for individual investigation and criticism of government activities.1

Bill Hamilton also mentioned that a Justice Department report commissioned by Janet Reno confirmed that a system called PROMIS was being used by Canadian agencies, but claimed it was totally different from INSLAW's PROMIS software.1
