The U.S. government used the Chileans and the DINA as scapegoats in the Orlando Letelier, Carlos Prat & Bernardo Leighton cases that were perpetrated by the CIA agent Michael Vernon Townley Welch who used more than 15 false names, carried out three attacks against Chilean citizens: He assassinated the Prats couple in Buenos Aires; he made a criminal attempt against the Leighton couple in Rome, through the Italian neo-Nazi movement ''Avanguardia Nazionale''; and he assassinated Orlando Letelier and his secretary, Ronnie Moffit, in Washington D.C.
