The agents sit him down and ask him for the imformation that he found about the Black Panther group. He tells them to look at the newspaper. They wanted to know more information concerning the Black Panther's weapons that they had used. Caldwell didn't want to tell them anything more than what had already been printed in his previous articles. He continues to post more information on the Black Panther group.
