William Newsom is a former California Appeals Court Judge and father of California Democrat governor Gavin Newsom.
Newsom served on the board of directors of Trans-International Computer Investment Corporation (TCI), a Silicon Valley computer firm with ties to military-intelligence fronts under its president Otto von Bolschwing, an SS officer and early associate of Adolf Eichmann in the Office of Jewish Affairs (Judenreferat) where he specialized in the expropriation of Jewish property. Bolschwing served in the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) in Mandatory Palestine and later in Romania, where he was involved in instigating the Legionnaires' Rebellion and the Bucharest Pogrom in 1941. Von Bolschwing obtained US citizenship in 1959 under Operation Paperclip. Newsom served as the company's attorney. The two traveled together extensively in Europe allegedly to "secure business deals" with Bolschwing's contacts in banking and industry.
TCI had intelligence-linked activities connected to broader networks involving the Gehlen Organization and CIA through von Bolschwing's ongoing status as an asset. TCI filed for bankruptcy in 1971 in what the Sacramento DA called "possibly the largest stock fraud in California history" and Bolschwing's Nazi past exposed. His American citizenship was revoked in 1981.[1]
