TELEPHONE TAP APPARENT
Clifford Carnicom’s phone line at this time exhibited anomalies that indicated the phone line was tapped. These indications included abrupt and erratic phone service to Carnicom’s residence with symptoms of repeated termination of conversations in mid-stream, failed connections, emergence of dial tones midstream, and various clicks and other sounds within the conversations. Though some of the more obvious indications of a phone tap went away after a while, those that continued were discrete, repeated and intermittent interruptions of phone conversation with clicks and momentary pauses of silence.
