It's been about nine years since Utah attorney Jesse Trentadue filed a Freedom of Information Act request for records about a CIA asset and FBI informant who helped fund the Oklahoma City bombing, as well as for records about a neo-Nazi bank-robbery gang also involved in the attack.
Tired of waiting, Trentaudue sued the FBI over the matter in February, demanding the bureau to produce the 69,375 pages of documents that it's holding.
The FBI wants to take another nearly 12 years to fork over those documents to him, which means that it would take at least 20 years for the bureau to comply with his initial FOIA request.
"The FBI proposes to process these records/documents for release to Plaintiff in monthly increments of 500 pages over a period of 11.5 years!" he said.
Trentadue's latest lawsuit seeks records on FBI informant and CIA asset Roger Moore, and the bank-robbery gang, the Aryan Republican Army, which he says was an FBI front group.
According to Trentadue's lawsuit, Moore was an FBI informant as part of the bureau's 1980s- and early 90s-era Operation Punchout, which was designed to identify and apprehend surplus dealers that bought and sold government property stolen from Department of Defense facilities in Utah.
As for the Aryan Republican Army, Trentadue believes that was an FBI front group that also helped fund the bombing.
