Anthony Pellicano Diaries--Research Compiled by Cheryl Shuman

August 31, 1977: Sgt Richard Archambault, who was heading up the investigation for the Forest Park police department into the disappearance of Mike Todd's remains, said he had probed as much as he could into the case without subpoening private detective Anthony Pellicano to testify before a grand jury. Pellicano tipped off police to the location of the Todd remains two days after the theft on the basis of information supplied by an informant. He refused to reveal the identity of the informant to police. "All I'm asking is that the states attorney call Pellicano before the grand jury and have him reveal his informant," Archambault said. The states attorney refused to subpoena Pellicano and the investigation was closed.
