The FBI has released its file on Deep Throat director Gerard Damiano who died last October, and to no one's surprise his 1972 porno flick Deep Throat was the subject of an investigation. Indeed, according to Matt Sedensky from the Associated Press, the DOJ considered granting the director immunity for his cooperation in the investigation:
The FBI notes Damiano had been "somewhat cooperative," On Aug. 7, 1973, an assistant U.S. attorney general writes to [FBI Director Clarence] Kelley, saying Damiano is being considered for immunity. The memo doesn't specify the crime, though mentioned throughout the file is the charge of interstate transportation of obscene material. * * * Authorities have long said the movie was made with mafia money - and the FBI has linked the mob with porn over the years - but the file includes no mention of mob links.
