Daschle's connection to the Myers' Spy Case
Friday, I noticed that Tom Daschle was handling foreign affairs for then-Senator Abourezk when Gwendolyn Myers, accused of spying for Cuba along with her husband, was also on the Abourezk payroll and when in 1977 Abourezk took two South Dakota basketball teams to Cuba. I thought the trip, if she worked on it, would have given her an opportunity to make contact with Cuban intelligence agents, for it occurs to me that she must have had such contact before an agent made his way to Pierre, South Dakota to formally enlist Gwen and her husband in the service of Cuba intelligence. I sent him the following email and received no response:
In the meantiume the Sioux Falls Argus Leader contacted him and reports back about Mrs. Myers:
The paper also confirms that Gwen was working for Abourezk in Washington from 1976-1979 when she returned to South Dakota. Update: An interesting psychological portrait of W. Kendall Myersby Sam Schulman. |
