STATEMENT OF ATTORNEY GENERAL RENO





	Today I had the pleasure of meeting with Mrs. Coretta Scott
King and members of her family, Ambassador Andrew Young, and
Reverend Walter Fauntroy.  I listened carefully to their concerns
about the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.,
who was one of America's heroes.  We will carefully review the
questions and information they presented, and I will be in touch
with them as soon as the review is complete.
