Seattle, Washington FBI Bureau File - Paperless Archives

1 Greene said that when he went to get his last check Brianna told him she didn't have
it. Greene said that Cliff, the field manager, told him he'd been to Brianna's house
2 and seen Greene's check, and he said he'd get it for him. He said that Cliff went to
get his check but it wasn't there. Brianna later told Greene that she lost his check.
3 Greene said he went to ACORN and they gave him his check.
4 Greene said the crew that went to Seattle besides himself was Cliff, two white guys, a
white girl and a mixed-race girl. He said that Brianna drove them up and picked them
5 up on at least one occasion.
6 Greene said it was Cliff's idea to make the fraud cards. Greene said it was easy to
sign people up in Tacoma because he'd lived there all his lif~ and new people. He
7 said he went to the hilltop area.
8 Greene said he went to Seattle only a couple of times.
9 Greene said he initialed his cards "R." SDPA Hobbs showed him a form with an "R" and
Greene confirmed it was his initial.
10
Greene said that all the cards in Seattle were fraudulent. He did say that he walked
11 up to a church on Madiso~ where they were handing out food and while there he got one
or two homeless people to sign cards for him, be he said they were probably fraudulent
12 also.
13 Greene said when the crew sat in the library they made up names for the cards, or they
used phone books and newspapers. He said they then signed the cards themselves. He
14 said the whole crew helped him, and he said he didn't like sitting in the library. He
said it was hard work making up all of those cards.
15
Greene said that Cliff and Brianna told the crew that they needed to get more cards
16 and that they put pressure on them.
17 I showed Greene pictures of Tina Johnson, Kendra Thill, Ryan Olson, Clifton Mitchell
and Brianna Debwa. He positively identified all of them as the people he worked with
18 at ACORN and the people he made up t~e cards with, with the exception of Debwa. I did
not have a picture of Jayson Woods.
