Today at 4:30 PM two Treasury agents, Tom Jack and Matthew Mc Whirr, served me a Subpoena to Testify Before Grand Jury, in US District Court of Western Washington, Seattle, WA, on January 25, 2001, 9:00 AM. Robb London, AUSA, is the applicant. The agents asked no questions except to verify my identity. The principal agent, Mr. Jack, referred me to Special Agent Jeff Gordon for questions if I had any, and presented a note with Jeff's name, title, Treasury office, and phone number. Mr. Jack said they knew nothing about the case and were only serving the subpoena. I asked for Mr. McWhirr's name, borrowed his pen to jot both names -- neither had cards, only badges to show. Mr. Jack said they were with Treasury Inspector General for Tax Adminstration (TIGTA), as is Jeff. The date of the subpoena is December 27, 2000, and was faxed to New York at 8:36 AM today. The subpoena states in bold caps "We request that you do not disclose the existence of this subpoena, because such a disclosure may make it more difficult to conduct the investigation." The subpoena is one page, with two pages of attachments, one titled "Information for Grand Jury Witnesses," the other a description of arrangements for reimbursement of expenses. The subpoena orders: You are commanded to appear and testify before the Grand Jury at place, date and time (as given above). And, You are also commanded to bring with you the following document(s) or object(s): Please provide any and all documents, papers, letters, computer disks, photographs, notes, objects, information, or other items in your possession or under your control, including electronically stored or computer records, which: 1.

Were previously possessed, owned, created, sent by, transported, or oftherwise affiliated with James Dalton Bell, a/k/a Jim Bell, or 3. Contain the names, addresses, license plate numbers, or any other identifying information involving any Government employees. This subpoena shall remain in effect until you are granted leave to depart by the court or by an officer acting on behalf of the court. ----- We'll do a full transcription of the whole shebang to post on Cryptome tonight. Nothing in the subpoena indicates that it is restricted to the current interstate stalking charges against Jim. Those charges are not mentioned.
