A close friend of Hossam Armanious and relatives of the family murdered in New Jersey have revealed the following:
Shortly after the murders, members of the Egyptian consulate went to visit the family to encourage them to keep quiet. And many family members have obeyed, saying nothing to reporters or anyone else. However, two family members and another Copt viewed the bodies at the funeral home. One of these eyewitnesses said that he clearly saw that the family members had not suffered stab wounds to the throat, as the prosecutors report states, but rather the following:
A. Both adults, Hossam and Amal, had a horizontal slit across the throat. Below the slit, on the left, right and middle of the throat were three holes, big enough so that one could place a finger in each hole. According to the eyewitness, it was as if the assailant(s) took a knife and turned it repeatedly in a circular fashion, as if to screw holes into the victims necks.
B. The two young girls, Sylvia (15) and Monica (8), also had a horizontal slits in their throats, along with two holes bored below the slits, one on the right and one on the left sides of their necks. The holes were similar to those on their parents necks.
C. The eyewitness said although the bodies of the victims were all covered, he was able to see the arms of the little girl Monica. Although the tattoo of the cross inside Monicas wrist was not defaced, he saw that her wrists were cut. He was not able to see the wrists of the other victims to see if the crosses on their wrists were defaced.
D. Though the family wants to reserve judgment until the results of the case are released, they did say that the way the four family members were bound and gagged and the way their throats were slit with holes carved is similar to executions that are shown on al-Jazeera. The American public is not aware of this because the details of the executions are not often described in news accounts.
Amal Garass father said that (contrary to many news reports and CAIRs press release) none of the familys jewelry was taken, and that Amal owned some quite expensive pieces that were not touched. At the time of her murder, Amal was wearing a ring worth $3,500 that was not taken.
Garass father also has been speaking with the detectives and the prosecutor on the case. He was told that the results of the autopsy would not be ready until March 14. However, an inside source in one of New Jerseys police departments said that the results of autopsy and toxicology reports are known within 48 hours after the bodies are discovered. This source has worked on such cases for many years. He said that the department knows the results, but as in similar cases intends to wait a month or two before they release them to the family. During that time long reports are written to cross the ts and dot the is for the family, but the final results are not much different from what is discovered within the first 48 hours. So all of the press reports about waiting for the prosecutors findings on the autopsies are nonsense. Though the investigators are looking at Sylvias computer and other evidence, the findings on the autopsy for the most part are already in.
A reporter who is closely following this case said that this delay was because the police and prosecutor want this case to go away. They want things to cool down. Thats why they set the autopsy date as March 14, two months after the murders.
It is still possible that this wasnt a Muslim hate crime. The problem is that investigators have not taken the necessary steps to ensure a fair review of the evidence. There are too many holes here, too many inconsistencies in the official story. Too many obvious tasks have not been done: an Armanious family friend with whom I spoke, who gave me names and motives of possible perpetrators, is still waiting for a call from investigators.
Investigators seem to be following dead ends more assiduously than live leads. A Muslim has told police in Jersey City that there is an Islamic custom in Egypt: a life for a life. He said that is what may have happened in this case. Some news reports are referring to this when they say theyre looking into the familys activities in Egypt before they came to the U.S. in 1997. Said prosecutor Edward DeFazio, It could be that it's a vendetta that might go back to the old country. Were going to try to look into that. However, those close to Hossam Armanious maintain that he didnt have any enemies, and certainly never took anyones life in Egypt or here; nor did anyone in his family.
This background information may illuminate why this investigation has been so curiously lacking:
There are a number of clergy in the Coptic community who are in bed with the Egyptian government. Some even act as agents for the Mubarak regime. Coptic clergy who wont cooperate are often exiled into the Egyptian desert, where they live a very difficult life.
Many Coptic women have been kidnapped by Muslims. Some of these women are being kidnapped with the help of the compromised clergy. The priest hears a girls confession and then passes on information he hears there to Muslim kidnappers, who decide which girls they want to take. Many of these women are forced to marry Muslim men and are never seen again.
A number of Muslims have infiltrated the Coptic community, pretending to be Christians in order to gather information. Jersey City has a large number of Copts. Some of this infiltration has taken place there; some of the Coptic clergy there are also compromised. However, most Copts trust their clergy wholeheartedly, making it easy for the moles to operate.
What do those compromised clergymen want? The answer most likely has to do with a fact revealed by a number of other sources: the Egyptian government is pressuring the police and prosecutor to make this case disappear. Where are the mainstream media reporters contacting the Egyptian consulate to find out whether or not this is true?
Many WOMEN have been kidnapped by Muslims.
When I lived in the UAE, the sheik took a shine to a young, blonde British girl so he deported her husband and kept her. She was never seen again.
You got it, Froggie. Why, oh why, did I ever move to Jersey??
Why are they doing an autopsy? I thought those were done in cases where they couldn't determine the cause of death.
It's in the body of the article. It actually makes no sense.
Unless the feds get involved with this, I think this crime will go away quietly. The local/state officials are being sure being silenced about this case, along with the MSM.
My presumption is that the DA does not want offend the noble muzelimb community. I wonder what the DA would have to say, if this had been a muzlimb family slaughtered by those horrible Christians? As 'calyspo louie' would say, "those numbers just don't add up." NSNR
They're afraid of a religious war.
They feel like if they stall long enough, this will be forgotten.
County officials most likely fear turmoil in the city
Let there be turmoil. I have some nice turmoil elimination equipment that needs to be used.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
An autopsy is required for every homicide in order to collect evidence.
They need to determine if they died because of the knife wounds or if they bled to death. /sarcasm
It says in the article that they hope the case will go away. It will not, it will eventually become commonplace, in every city in every town unless the western people get their act together. Islam is a cancer spreading throughout the Judao-Christian world. It has to be stopped and driven back to the gates. Time for a breather and driven into oblicvion. We failed to do this during the Crusades, look what happened.
I can't imagine that anybody in a position to know would tell you something like this.
first off, i didn't write that, secondly i'm catholic myself, i was only wondering what the girl's had to confess, maybe i misunderstood something.
The coverup started 12hours after the Feds got involved.
