Excuse me Kirkwood, but I think you are delusional here. Mr. Hook is far from the first Whistle Blower to meet with near death and will not be the last even thought we are supposed to have “laws” protecting them. The money is just too great from these back room ‘research companies’. The word University is a dead give away as to the possible perps are here……………the governor of New Mexico is most likely not without knowledge and/or is part of the scheme…and has been since the Clinton days.
Well, I think you are delusional, so that makes it even. You obviously don't associate with mousey little number-crunching lab workers on a daily basis. This is not their style. This is the work of someone likely involved heavily with money and power. I reserve judgement until I learn more, but if this was business and not personal, then whoever did this was likely not associated directly with LANL or UC, but was hired muscle from outside the system and paid by someone with real power and the ability to make things happen and have people disappear. If you were that person, you would not put your trust in some mousey little lab workers from India or China to do get the job done, but find some professional thugs who can't be easily connected back to you.
