As well as the shady fundraising, also throw in some shady pardons as well made solely to buy votes for the Hiltery.....




STATEMENT OF

DETECTIVE ROCCO PASCERELLA

BEFORE THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY

HEARING ON FALN CLEMENCY

SEPTEMBER 15, 1999


Good Morning Senators.

My name is Rocco Pascarella.

On December 31, 1982, I was a police officer assigned to security at Police Headquarters in New York City. I had joined the force at age 21, and in my 13 years on the New York City Police force I had worked in various precincts and assignments. About two weeks prior to December 31, 1982 I had been assigned to the Police Headquarters security detail. On what should have been a festive evening, FALN terrorists were at work in New York City. It was 9:30 p.m. when my colleagues and I heard a tremendous explosion. At first we thought it was fireworks. But soon after, we were told a bomb had exploded at 26 federal plaza which is two blocks from police headquarters. I was directed by my seargent to search the perimeter of the headquarters building for anything suspicious that might be a bomb. As I approached the rear unused entrance to the building I noticed a lot of debris. As I turned to search , the bomb went off.

The blast that shattered my life that night was the work of the FALN. This notorious group of terrorists had been planting bombs for some time--ostensibly to secure Puerto Rican independence. But their criminal activity was not limited to indiscriminate bombing. It also included apolitical crimes such as weapons possession and robbery.

That I or my colleagues was not killed that night is a fortunate coincidence. FALN bombs were placed at locations where it was likely that innocent people would be killed or injured. I suffered the loss of one leg below the knee, severe scarring of my other leg, the loss of hearing in one ear, and the loss of my eyesight to the extent that I am no longer able to drive. I was in the hospital for two months. I underwent six operations for my leg and ears and received over 40 stitches to my face, ears and mouth. I spent a year going through rehabilitation to learn to walk again with myartificiall leg and injured right leg. Because of my injuries I have been unable to return to active duty in the police force. I am on an extended medical leave. The pain and trauma of these disabling injuries were multiplied by the suffering it caused my family: My parents, my daughter, my friends and my colleagues in the New York City Police Department. When you consider all the other whose lives were devastated during the FALN onslaught, the grief and suffering grows exponentially.

Seventeen year later, the insidious cancer that is the FALN again ulcerates American life. Forces have been at work to position these criminals for presidential clemency. Under ordinary circumstances the prospect of their release would be laughable. What could motivate any president to grant a request with the blood of American citizens?

Perhaps everyone in this room, and everyone in America, should review these cases:

They read the United States vs. The defendants, or the State of New York vs. The defendants. Roc Pascarella did not prosecute these cases. You did. The people did. And when it’s done, and just sentences are imposed they should be made to stand, particularly in cases of terrorism. Because when terrorists strike, they are not just maiming me, they are striking at the very foundation of America. Our very freedom makes us particularly vulnerable to the demented minions of terrorists all over the world.

In the press, their supporters describe these FALN terrorists as freedom fighters and political prisoners. That characterization is an abomination. The basis of American Democracy is dialogue and compromise within the political process. Democrats and Republicans do not butcher each other in the streets of Washington, or punctuate their rhetoric with bombs and bullets. The indiscriminate killing and maiming of innocent people to make a political statement is an attack on the American political system and should be dealt with accordingly. Nor do these misfits, as some would imply, represent the goals and ideas of Puerto Rican people, who have democratically rejected Puerto Rican independence, and morally rejected slaughter as a means to a political end.

In this very forum the clamor is heard for more severe sentences for hate crimes. What greater hate than to kill, not because of some demented distaste for another race or ethnic group, but to kill anyone; man, women, or child to make a merely political statement?

And finally, what kind of message does this exercise of clemency send to the world’s terrorists? The United States military is sent halfway around the world to destroy a terrorist’s camp in a foreign nation, while at home, a wile a group of criminal terrorists as exists anywhere in the world is released upon the strength of a hard wrought promise never to engage in violence again. A release, it appears, that is contrary to the recommendations and warnings of every federal agency involved in the investigation, apprehension, trial and incarceration of this group.

You, as elected representatives and as citizens of this nation, have a responsibility to the American people to expose the circumstances and the motivation which led to this assault on the American political system and the American justice system. You owe it to yourselves. You owe it to your constituents. You owe it to me. And you owe it to past and future victims of FALN murder and terror.

Thank you.

Coming out of the Cannes Film Festival via Variety today I read that Sundance will be doing a Pro Castro/Cuba piece.

Of course, Paul is doing it as well...

Paul plans to release a DVD as well as a tell-all book about his experience as a Clinton fundraiser that includes spicy new revelations about the former President.

It's being produced by Redford, I'm pretty sure.

With whom do you think I am working? This is not a home video in which I am involved. Why do you think I flew to North Carolina two weeks ago?

Thanks for the great contributions. I still hope we can find FReepers with movie cameras. We need footage.

We need footage.

I'm on the right coast and saw the initial perp walk last night. Maybe Fox has some tape...

Doug, you are one crazy sumbitch, and you must have testicles the size of basketballs.

And those are qualities that I admire. Best of luck, and I hope the Beast bites the dust once and for all.

I don't hold out much hope for the Federal trial, since the judge is telegraphing that Hillary will not be involved in any way. That said, trials can take sudden turns that can't be predicted.

But what comes out of the Civil case, that could be a different story. Could be extremely damaging to her.

And a movie with a happy ending (Hillary behind bars) would be a must own piece of plastic, even if it was fiction.

DFU "Peter Paul & Hillary" PING!

...FReeper help is needed IMMEDIATELY in Los Angeles....

Can anyone spend some time at the trial of David Rosen? That is really important. We need anything that you can film from the trial. Rosen and his counsel entering and leaving the courthouse. If you can get a scene inside the halls, that would be nice. How about some film of the docket? If Kendall is snooping around, we want him on film saying his usual blah blah blah blah blah.

For the rest of you, we would appreciate links to stories and any other information you think would be useful. We need any footage of Hillary anywhere, including your own footage or fair use photos or film.

Anywhere that Hillary appears in public, we hope a FReeper will be there with cameras AND RECORDERS rolling.

If you know any former Clinton associates who now realize what Hillary is all about, here is an opportunity for them to tell their story....

THANKS! (more details in the original post on this thread)

The people with whom I am working have national distribution.

Remember when the Kerry/RAT/DNC lawyer brigade threatened Sinclair broadcasting into pulling back a lot of it's airings of the SwiftBoat Vet film using slander and libel charges?

Think they'll hesitate even one nanosecond to step up to the plate for Hill?
