EL PASO — The arrest of three
men on federal weapons violations in
Philadelphia could provide a lead in
the assassination of U.S. Judge John
H. Wood Jr., a newspaper reported
Monday.
The El Paso Herald-Post quoted a
high Justice Department source as
saying the arrests on Jan. 5 were not
directly related to the Wood case,
"but it’s a red hot lead, and there are
some very close connections to Jim
my Chagra.”
Chagra, an El Paso native con
victed of narcotics trafficking, has
been a fugitive since his conviction of
continuing criminal enterprise at
Atistin last year.
■i Bradley Bryant, 35, of Savannah,
Ga.; his cousin, Larry Earl Bryant,
38, of Midway, Ky.; and Roger Dale
Barnard, 29, of Lexington, Ky., and
Kilgore, were arrested by Philadel
phia policemen and agents of the
{jvreau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
firearms executing a search war-
Ijnt.
Among equipment confiscated
from the rooms of the Airport Sher
aton Hotel in Philadelphia, occupied
fry the trio for seven days, were sev
eral weapons, pistols, silencers, ski
masks, false identification docu
ments, bogus permits to carry
firearms in several states and “elec
tronic warfare” equipment including
telephone scramblers and sophisti
cated telephone security devices
built into briefcases, federal officials
Said.
The newspaper quoted a source
close to the investigation as saying
the men tried unsuccessfully to iden
tify themselves as CIA agents during
the arrests.
“These guys are heavies, for sure,”
the source told the Herald-Post,
ti Bradley Bryant was taken into cus
tody at the Philadelphia Internation
al Airport while awaiting a Delta Air
lines flight to Atlanta. Agents found a
9-mm pistol and .22-caliber magnum
Wshot derringer inside his lug
gage, according to the federal
firearms complaint against the trio.
■' All three men had false Kentucky
driver licenses, federal officials said,
and Bradley Bryant also allegedly
possessed false firearms permits
from Pennsylvania, Georgia and
Jfevada.
. Charles “Chuck” Perutojr., a Phi-
Uelphia attorney, told the Herald-
jm he represented the three men
through a Springfield, Mass, lawyer
named Phillip Ryan, who was identi-
in the bond hearing as a “busi-
*5 partner" of Bradley Bryant.
A man identifying himself as Phil-
Ryan accompanied Salvatore
ichael Caruana of Boston when
ana appeared before the El Paso
md jury that indicted Chagra last
fob. 28. Caruana also appeared at
lagra’s El Paso bond reduction
[Siring last March and before the
P Antonio grand jury' last October,
hading the Fifth Amendment to
ivbid testifying although contending
ih knew nothing about the Wood
ling.
Wood was scheduled to preside
^bver Chagra’s trial at the time he was
ambushed and shot in the back out-

side his San Antonio apartment on
May 29, 1979.
U.S. District Judge Adrian Spears
of San Antonio said he would rule
when Caruana is subpoened back be
fore the grand jury, expected next
month, on whether he must answer
the questions or face contempt of
court charges.
An Austin jury subsequently con
victed Chagra of continuing criminal
enterprise, an offense punishable by
life imprisonment, but he fled the
country before U.S. District Judge
William S. Sessions assessed punish
ment. He would be held under
bonds totalling $3 million if cap
tured.
Caruana, a reputed associate of
Boston organized crime figure
Raymond Patriarcha, also came to El
Paso after the Dec. 21, 1978, killing
of attorney Lee Chagra, a brother of
Jimmy. Caruana said he was em
ployed as a “private investigator” by
the Chagra family.
Bradley Bryant originally was held
in lieu of $75,000 cash bond, and his
cousin and Barnard were held in lieu
of $50,000 bonds each, but the bonds
were reduced to $35,000 and
$25,000 respectively. Bradley
Bryant posted the federal bond on
Friday, but immediately was taken
into custody by Pennsylvania author
ities on state firearms charges.
Federal investigators also were in
terested in evidence, including re
ceipts, which allegedly showed one
of the three men arrested had spent
“about $300,000 over the last six to
eight months, the newspaper re
ported.
Federal sources also told the
newspaper that Bradley Bryant, who
had $23,000 in cash in his possession
when arrested, headed a firm known
as “Executive Protection Services,”
which Assistant U.S. Attorney R.
Rivera-Soto of Philadelphia de
scribed as “a roving outfit. ”
The protection firm reportedly
was operated at Bryant’s 3 l /2 acre
estate in the Philadelphia suburb of
Devon, Pa., until it burned last year,
the Herald-Post quoted Philadelphia
sources as saying.
“As late as last August, Bryant’s
protective firm allegedly provided
‘bodyguards’ for Jimmy Chagra, ” the
report said.
The newspaper said it contacted a
Mrs. Sara Barnard by telephone in
Kilgore who identified herself as the
wife of Roger Dale Barnard and said
she did not know the whereabouts of
her husband. "He goes different
places all the time, ” the woman said.
