Section AA-1 — which is labelled in the Guyana Index as “Leo Ryan” –– consists of 82 pages.
The listing below is complete for this section of the FBI’s FOIA release. The complete PDF for this section as released by the FBI is here.
As differentiated from many sections on this site, these documents have been arranged in chronological order, with the duplicate copies of each grouped together in one place. There are minor differences between the originals and duplicates — usually in the form of handwritten annotations — and they are noted in the transcripts.
The citation for these documents should open with the FBI’s official designation of these records, which is “RYMUR 89-4286.” Each individual page in these records has a unique number. Page 25 of this document, for example, is marked “AA-1-K-1”. The complete citation for that page, then, would be “RYMUR 89-4286-AA-1-K-1”.
