Class Action Lawsuits

Class Action Suits were filed simultaneously on March 15, 1999 against the C.I.A. in Los Angeles and Oakland. The suits hold the C.I.A. accountable for the tons of cocaine it now admits it helped bring into the country.

Although these suits specifically address the damages done in Los Angeles and Oakland, as described by the Gary Webb stories, these suits are models which can be used anywhere by any community.

If you were a resident of Los Angeles, Compton or Oakland from 1983 through 1988 you are automatically included as a member of the class filing suit. If you would like to testify about your loss, provide investigative information or provide assistance of any kind, please contact the following numbers:
LOS ANGELES	(213) 427-8519 (310) 837-6684
OAKLAND	(510) 273-2474
*PLEASE DO NOT CALL THE ATTORNEYS DIRECTLY!!!* They cannot handle the call volume and you will put them out of business.
