Diana's death: accident or ...
Times of india ^ | JUNE 15, 2005

Speculations that Princess Diana's death may be more than an accident have gained further momentum, after recent discoveries revealed that her chauffeur reportedly received mystery payments amounting to 142,000 dollars, just weeks before she died in the car he was driving.

Chauffeur Henri Paul died along with Diana and her lover Dodi Al Fayed when the Mercedes he was driving crashed in an underpass in Paris, France in August 1997.

British detectives investigating the tragedy have fuelled speculation that Paul was being paid by British secret service agents, by revealing the staggering sums he received from British banks just before the fatal accident.

Financial investigators have also revealed Paul had staggering amounts of money in 13 bank accounts around the world, despite earning just 38,000 pounds, a year as a driver for Paris' Ritz hotel.

"Money was drafted over to Paul from accounts in England. As far as the investigation is concerned, this is a crucial breakthrough,"a source close to the inquiry was quoted by Femalefirst, as saying.

"We have always wanted to get to the bottom of who was paying Henri Paul all this cash and now we're getting closem," they added.

I soooo have to reply!

We were watching "Pulp Fiction" last night. A hitman was hired by several people, including the victim's ex wife (played by Teri Hatcher). After he killed the victim, he was supposed to be killed. However this guy was no dummy, and was wearing a bullet-proof vest. Interesting movie.

Reading this article brought that part of the movie back to me. Remember that at the last minute, Diana's regular driver for some reason could not drive, so Henri Paul took his place. Sacrificial goat, perhaps?

Diana always wore a seat belt, from what I understand. Trust me, anything can be monkeyed with. It is said that she wasn't wearing a seat belt, but did it disengage (fall apart), on impact?

Of course Paul could have been paid off by paparazzi, or could have been involved in drugs, however I don't buy it. Think Vince Foster, etc...

My summer weight Reynolds Wrap seems to be holding up nicely ;-P

It wasn't a conspiracy that killed her, but her decision not to buckle-up.

Thank you.

I've been saying exactly that since the night it happened.

She believed she was invincible.

"Diana always wore a seat belt, from what I understand."

Perhaps she was wearing the same kind as Dale Earnhardt, Sr.?

Let me make sure I understand this. The chauffeur was paid $142,000 to commit suicide?
Not much of a deal for him

Some people will do it for $25,000 and 72 virgins.

Cop out.

Please support your accusation or apologize.

But what do you think of my assessment of the Windsors?

Well for 150 years, until Charles married Diana, they had done the right thing by the stud line by marrying more intelligent consorts.

You think Prince Albert of Saxe-Coberg Gotha was intelligent? And how about the other consorts they married into? How bright were they?

I think Princess Diana probably raised the royal Windsor I.Q. by several points at least.

One of the dynasty's earlier stars, George III actually had mental problems and Queen Victoria behaved rather oddly in response to Prince Albert's demise, but that may just have been grief.

Wow!

It sounds like you're issuing a challenge to a duel or something.

I'm not the only person who looked at the accident, the reaction of the "Royals", the prior treatment of Diana by the "Royals" and Prince Charles, the implications of a marriage with a Muslim, and actual statments made by her before her untimely death and raised the suspicion she was done in by the Windsors.

My impression of Diana was that she was a relatively innocent, naive decent kid when filthy Prince Charlie got his hands on her, that he was screwing around with Camilla Parker-Bowles, a married woman during their marriage, that he has the personality of a dried out pickle and he strongly resented the very genuine charm, real warmth and personality of a beautiful spouse he was very obviously unworthy of.

Anybody who would find Parker-Bowles perferably to Diana needs a serious mental exam - or at least an eye check-up. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but Bowles would require the personality of a Cleopatra to compensate for her equine visage.

Thanks for your reply.

However I was not questioning your opinion on the death of Diana, but rather your assertions about the mental capacity of the Queen.

Got it?

She always struck me as kind of stogy and not too bright.

I haven't done an I.Q. test on her, so I'm just going on what I have read about her.

I do admit, I've seen pictures of her before she married Prince Phillip and in her younger days, she was quite a "fox".

Got it?
