As an example, a career criminal was using the Sept DC Tea Party to illicit donations on a website. He went so far as to post a fake Fireman's II Certificate said to have come from Virginia. He claimed to have been at the Pentagon for 72 hours on 9/11 and then immediately went to NY and spent the next 5 weeks at ground zero. It was proved, by a simple check of court records in Virginia, that he was locked up on 11/28/2009 - clearly not able to have been at Ground Zero.
Additional prior criminal charges and convictions were discovered and other completely damning information was unveiled. Ed Hale has been provided with all of the records yet he refuses to budge in his support of this person. In fact he gives the guy (whose now using an alias) time on Plains Radio where he's still trying to bilk trusting people.
I can see Hale being handed a birth certificate and out of the excitement of a “gotcha” moment, believing it to be 100% authentic. What I have a hard time believing is that a lawyer would file suit in federal court using this document (if it indeed come from Hale or anyone in fact) without vetting the credibility of the document.
I’ve seen Ed Hale’s name mentioned here and there but I haven’t picked up enough information to form a clear picture. Thanks for posting your own experience.
What do other people think of this guy? Should everything coming from him be discounted, or is he often onto something good?
Thanks for the background info. I don’t know what to make of this latest deal. You are right, Orly should have done the legwork before she went public with this BC. The thought did occur to me that she didn’t care if it was fake or not because she believed it would force discovery by being put out there or something. Who knows.
