U.S. officials gave instructions for Benghazi Medical Center to use a "John Doe" pseudonym on the death certificate of Ambassador Christopher Stevens after he died of asphyxiation in the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attacks on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya. That's according to a U.S. official speaking on condition of anonymity because the official isn't authorized to speak publicly on the matter. The reason for the pseudonym, says the official, was to avoid drawing undue attention to the importance of the victim as Americans rushed to figure out how to recover Stevens' body and return it to the U.S.

And we will never know if the FBI autopsy report is accurate or another Administration release for public consumption.

Well if they are willing to lie about his name, there is nothing they will not lie about.

The Ambassador was gangraped over hours
to the delight of Obama who watched it live
on TV and then remained in hiding so there would
NEVER be a rescue.

As if a “John Doe” wouldn’t draw attention in Libya. Ridiculous. Are our officials really that dumb?

Because where 4 out of 5 people are named Muhammed, “John Doe” wouldn’t raise any eyebrows.

No. But they believe that the average 'John Doe' is that dumb. And they seem to be correct.

I would like to know just what he did or didn’t do while 4 Americans were being slaughtered. And he owes the truth to the loved ones. It’s appalling that we may never really know.

CBS news :

“a U.S. official speaking on condition of anonymity because the official isn’t authorized to speak publicly on the matter.”

then why should we believe anything this official says? especially through CBS NEWS.

maybe if these people were threatened to be thrown in Prison then they could speak the truth.

Wow.. Team 0bama was trying to bury this entire incident, including the fact it was Stevens who was killed. I guess that explains why everyone was told to ‘stand down’, including our military.

Officials found no internal damage, no indication of assault and no mistreatment of his body

I guess the youtube video was just my imagination.

I agree. In the photo his head is upright as he was being dragged off.

If so, how would they have explained his disappearance?
