DeCamp advised to write down everything he knows to prevent his own death

John DeCamp was advised by William Colby to write down everything he knew as an insurance policy that they might not take his life. Think about where we were as a nation that our own intelligence agencies can assassinate citizens of our country so blatantly.

"Colby realizing that he had helped create this monster and had an obligation to correct it. That's why he went in front of the Senate and released what came to be called the family jewels, the violations, the breaking of the law of the CIA. He was fired and shut up. He was the one who inspired me to write the book as a self-defense measure. That's what he was trying to do when he went before the US Senate with that information. The CIA had become like a government unto itself. Following no rules. That's why he went before the Church Committee.

In my own mind, he was killed to shut him up."

Colby was hired to investigate Gary Caradori's death. The same Gary Caradori that had all the evidence needed but his plane just so happened to be shot down.
