his rural cottage, becoming the
Second potential witness in Wil

«y Sheriff Gary Dalton, who
■found the body of Kevin Mul-
■ahy, the former agent, outside
Kottage No. 1 at the Mountain
B/iew Motel Court Tuesday. His
Body was in a jackknifed posi-

“ T here was no inkling what
soever. No trauma to the body,
no marks, no nothing that indi

An autopsy was scheduled
Wednesday.
Mu lea by was expected to be a
key government witness in the
case against former CIA agents
Wilson and Frank Terpil, ac
cused in a Libyan terrorist sup
port scheme. He had worked
with CBS as a consultant on the
case but (iBS officials said he was
no longer employed there.
Shenandoah County Sheriff
Marshall Robinson said Mul-
cahy’s rent was paid, but he had
been asked to leave by the motel
owner for an undisclosed
reason.
Robinson said his department
got a call from a neighbor, who
saw Mulcahy slumped in the
doorway of his cottage.
Shenandoah County Com
monwealth’s Attorney William
Logan Jr. said wine bottles were
found in Mulcahy’s personal be
longings, but Robinson would
not say if alcohol or drugs were
involved in his death. He also
declined comment on whether
Mulcahy could have died of exp
osure. Temperatures dipped
into the 40s Monday night.
Robinson said Mulcahy had
moved everything out of his cot
tage and into his vehicle.
“Yes, he was moving out,” he
said.

The nationwide search con

his wife, Leann, also considered
suspects in the case. Lewis is
wanted on federal charges for
writing an extortion letter de

makers of Tylenol.
In Colorado, the state’s three
largest supermarket chains
issued statewide removal orders
for all Excedrin capsules and
smaller retailers were expected
to follow after the FDA’s with
drawal announcement.
Authorities investigated to
determine if there was a connec
tion between the poisoning of
William Sinkovic, who took Ex
cedrin capsules, and the dis
appearance of a 4-ounce bottle
of mercuric chloride from
Staney Aviation Corp. in De
nver.
Suburban Aurora police
spokesman Mike Sellman said
Sinkovic underwent surgery late
Tuesday at Aurora Community
Hospital and was in critical con
dition. An unknown quantity of
mercury was removed from his
stomach and turned over to de
tectives.
Sinkovic’s poisoning followed
two recent cases of product tam

two more cases were reported
Tuesday in Florida.

“He (Browning) turned col

Justice Department sources
said Mulcahy was expected to
testify next month at the trial of
Wilson, who is charged with
shipping arms to Libya. He is
scheduled to stand trial in Alex
andria, Va., on Nov. 15, in
Washington on Nov. 22 and in
Houston Nov. 29.
Rafael Villaverde was also ex
pected to testify, but he dis
appeared from a boat accident
near the Bahamas seven months
ago. Survivors said Villaverde
dropped overboard when the
boat exploded and sank and
they were unable to rescue him.
The Coast Guard never found a
trace of his body and the death
was ruled an accident.
Mulcahy’s father, who also
worked for the CIA, told CBS
News that he had not seen his
son in several weeks, and said he
had been depressed.
Reports published a year ago
in the Washington Post said
Mulcahy had worked with Wil
son but broke with the operation
after Wilson told him to buy a
heat-seeking missile for the Li
byans. Mulcahy reportedly said
he was afraid the Libyans might
use the missile for a terrorist
attack on a commercial airliner.
The CIA investigation into
Wilson’s dealings with Libya be
gan in 1976 when Mulcahy told
officials that Wilson, Terpil and
others were operating a massive
terrorism support program for
Libyan leader Moammar Kha-
dafy.
Wilson is now being held in
lieu of $60 million bond. Wilson,
who worked as a covert agent for
the CIA from 1955 to 1970, first
was indicted in 1980 on charges
of illegally shipping explosives
to Libya as part of an operation
to train Libyan terrorists.
