A government large enough to grant you everything you want,
is big enough to take it all away. — Gerald Ford, former US President
ABOUT THE BOOK
A lobbyist for some 40 years, Dr. William Chasey, an academic who had found his niche in the political labyrinth of Capitol Hill, was known as a man of his word who made things happen. He had a long list of prestigious clients, and enjoyed extraordinary access to all members of the US Congress, assembling one of the most powerful networks on the Hill. His integrity was never questioned.
Hired to forge communications between Libya and the US Congress, a trip he took with a US Congressman to Tripoli for discussions with then Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi, forever changed Chasey’s life.
Upon his return, his bank accounts were frozen, clients had been strongly discouraged from working with him; even his close friends had been advised not to take his calls. Then, things got even worse: The CIA, FBI, IRS and Federal Judiciary attempted to coerce him into using his unique Libyan access to participate in a CIA-sponsored assassination plot of the two Libyans indicted for the bombing of Pan Am flight 103. Chasey’s refusal to cooperate with the CIA resulted in the destruction of his reputation, a six-year FBI investigation and sting operation, financial ruin, criminal charges, and incarceration in federal prison.
