< 2sychological warfare= The 1#I and police used myriad "dirty tricks" to undermine
progressi!e mo!ements. They planted false media stories and published bogus leaflets and
other publications in the name of targeted groups. They forged correspondence, sent
anonymous letters, and made anonymous telephone calls. They spread misinformation a/out
meetings and e!ents, set up pseudo mo!ement groups run /y go!ernment agents, and
manipulated or strong4 armed parents, employers, landlords, school officials and others to
cause trou/le for acti!ists. They used /ad4>acketing to create suspicion a/out targeted acti!ists,
sometimes with lethal conseuences.
< +egal harassment= The 1#I and police a/used the legal system to harass dissidents and make
them appear to be criminals. Officers of the law gave perjured testimony and presented
fabricated evidence as a prete?t for false arrests and wrongful imprisonment. They
discriminatorily enforced ta? laws and other go!ernment regulations and used conspicuous
sur!eillance, "in!estigati!e" inter!iews, and grand >ury su/poenas in an effort to intimidate
acti!ists and silence their supporters.
< Illegal force= The 1#I conspired with local police departments to threaten dissidents@ to
conduct illegal break-ins in order to search dissident homes@ and to commit !andalism,
assaults, /eatings and assassinations. The object was to frighten or eliminate dissidents and
disrupt their movements.
