My colleague, Joe Wolfinger, and I are responsible for the recent attempts to correct the Wikipedia entry on Rico. We are both former FBI special agents and attorneys who never knew Paul Rico personally. However, beginning in 2006, we spent more than five years working with a veteran reporter researching Rico, his career and the charges against him and the surrounding controversies. We published a book on our findings, Wolfinger, Joe; Kerr, Chris; Seper, Jerry, Rico–How Politicians, Prosecutors and the Mob Destroyed One of the FBI's Finest Special Agents. 74–80, 209–26, Telemachus Press. (2012) ISBN 978-1-939337-19-1. We reviewed court decisions, the extensive congressional hearings and testimony and interviewed numerous first-hand witnesses, including the Tulsa, Oklahoma detective and District Attorney who charged Rico with murder in 2003. We have independent sources for every fact in our write-up we posted on Wikipedia several days ago, which corrects numerous errors in what existed previously. Just one example: the "FBI mugshot" of Paul Rico cannot be authentic since Rico was never charged or arrested by the FBI. We are not interested in "editing wars" but would like to discuss any challenge you may have to the facts we have provided or any need you see for improved sourcing of our changes. We are only interested in an authentic, accurate version of the facts on this page.[[User:Chriskerresq|Chriskerresq]] ([[User talk:Chriskerresq|talk]]) 22:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC) |
