Czornonoh, a Sacramento, California man, claimed he had warned an American vice consul in Sofia, Bulgaria, in August 1963 that Lee Harvey Oswald intended to assassinate President Kennedy.
Correspondence surrounding his claim — a March 1978 British Embassy note transmitting his letters, his handwritten and retyped accounts (naming Bulgarian consul Wasilev and vice consul Blackshear), and later letters alleging harassment by police and the FBI.
No. The documents present his allegations as unverified assertions. His claims reached the House Select Committee on Assassinations, where Chief Counsel Richard A. Sprague reviewed the material.
