KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992 SEREJi 4-r~ }~ 14 August 1968 SUBJECT: GUCAS, Chris Subject is identified as a California investigator who administered a polygraph test to Edgar Eugene BRADLEY who has been charged with conspiracy by GARRISON. Subject was born 12 August 1921 at Omaha, Nebraska. He is a former Agencyemployee who EOD in October 1949 as a GS-9 Intelligence Officer. Subject resigned his staff status in February 1951 and became a staff agent with Project ENDXMORPH in Tuke from March 1951 until July 1952. (His wife Anne Claudia GUGAS nee SETARO was granted a covert security clearance in February 1952 for use in a clerical capacity in the Middle East.) In his assignment with Project ENDCM&RPH infTkey, Subject was a source of constant embarrassment in his contacts with Turkish police officials. He was boastful, indiscreet, lacking in sound judgment, knew little or nothing in the fields in which he was self-professedly an expert and was guilty of security breaches in failing to maintain his cover. In one incident he made recommendations of police reorganizations to be made by province governors in .urkeg; whereas, in Turkeyy the Police Department is a national organization and not subject to the dictates of the province governors. This caused much ill will and friction with the Turkish police. Subject professed to be an expert in his knowledge of the polygraph machine and claimed he had two years' experience with the Los Angeles Police Department prior to his employment with the 'Agency. However, -I was developed that instead of this claimed experience, he had actually spent one or two weeks in a detective school connected with the Los Angeles Police Department where he received below average grades. In October 1952 he approached an Agency employee regarding a new type of technical equipment and this conversation led to the disclosure by Subject that he was employed by the Agencj in a covert capacity; that he was teaching lie detection techniques to foreign police departments without being authorized or competent to do so. Subject was briefed in December 1952 with stress placed on the importance of living up to his security responsibilities and exercising utmost precaution in protecting the covert interests of the Agency; In spite of the strong warnings given him in this interview, Subject again became involved in an incident of official embarrassment to the Agency.
