He reportedly chose most of the original 40(?) members of the CIA assassination squad, Operation 40, most of whom were Cubans. Perdomo was a closely associate with Operation 40 member and Watergate burglar, Frank Sturgis[2], who claimed that Sanjenis died of natural causes in 1974. According to Sturgis, the CIA nurtured Sanjenis's anonymity and his family was not notified of his alleged death until after the funeral. This was however never confirmed by any other source.[3]

Jose Sanjenis Perdomo was probably working as the doorman at the Dakota on Dec. 8, 1980, the night John Lennon was killed. He was at the crime scene when the shooting occurred and asked Mark David Chapman immediately afterwards if he knew what he had just done. Chapman reportedly replied that he had just shot John Lennon. It is interesting that Perdomo's name was not released for several years after the event.[3]
