Katsaris Letter to Polygraph Examiner

BB-31-a-77

April 27, 1978

Mr. George Harmon – Polygraph
1182 Market St.
San Francisco, CA 94101

Dear Mr. Harmon:

I’m sorry I couldn’t make my appointment last Monday afternoon. Our budget meetings with BAPC took much longer than I anticipated. I will be prompted next Tuesday, May 2 and time to be at your office at or before 3:00 in the afternoon. My check for last Monday’s time is included.

Tim Stoen will meet me at your office to provide a second source of information. If you can think of anyone else you wish to have their, please notify me.

My main concern in asking for the lie detector test is to prove the falseness of the charges by People’s Temple Church members, including my daughter, that I am a child molester and have abused my daughter sexually. However, I would also like to be questioned on the following charges they have made against me:

[handwritten insertion: “That I molested a child @ TSC”]

  1. That I was a member of the CIA and worked for or was involved with the military junta that ruled Greece.
  2. That I engaged to Joseph Mazor along with a group of parents in an effort to get our children out of Guyana.
  3. That I along with other parents known as the Concerned Relatives are planning to send mercenaries into Guyana to kidnap our children.
  4. Then I oppose my daughter’s membership in People’s Temple Church because I am disappointed she is not working with me at Trinity School.
  5. That I am in league with a right wing Congressman in a conspiracy to destroy People’s Temple Church.

That’s a pretty long list of charges and I hope they can all be incorporated in the test.

Sincerely,

Steven A. Katsaris
