drip, drip, drip...

FORMER US President Bill Clinton may be forced to appear in court over a medical scandal which claimed the lives of innocent Scots.
Many haemophiliacs were infected with hepatitis C after tainted blood from American prisoners was imported into the UK.
Glasgow firm Thomsons are representing the families of Scots sufferers who died after contracting the disease.
They allege inmates in an Arkansas jail were paid to donate blood despite the authorities knowing they had AIDS and hepatitis.
They are threatening to call the ex-president, who was state governor at the time, to the witness stand.
The infected bloodwasused to make clotting agents for haemophiliacs who require regular blood transfusions Frank Maguire, of Thomsons, said "These allegations are extremely serious and I am now more sure than ever that there should be a full public inquiry into why so many Scots contracted hepatitis C from infected blood products.

"The relatives of my clients who have died want an inquiry to know how their loved ones came to be infected with such a deadly disease, to expose the full facts surrounding their death and bring to light any negligent or discreditable conduct.
"An inquiry would also help to reassure the public that this sort of thing could not happen again.
"If former President Clinton has some information about how this happened in a jail in Arkansas while he was state governor then I'd hope he'd want to give evidence to an inquiry."
The law firm has already taken court action against the Lord Advocate, Colin Boyd, and Health Minister Andy Kerr.
They are calling for a review of their decision not to hold a judicial inquiry into the spate of deaths
I wonder if Bill and Hill left themselves enough cover story evidence like they usually leave behind as they habitually schemed to rig the evidence for a future way out in case one of their scandals were discovered.
Yeah, I think he meant Scottish since we're talking about Bill Clinton - not Ted Kennedy... ;-)

I used to be BigM but changed emails and lost my label. I've been in the middle of this thing for years. It's like a bad penny. It will always show up until justice prevails!
Most of those articles have been deleted. I never knew FR deleted articles, just archived them. But then I guess we don't have totally unlimited space for archives! (boo hoo!)
Yes, this is the continued work of the Bloodhound gang. The scent of the blood trail has been found again.
A bump and a drip!
the RCMP has a full investigation on this crime. It's been active for the last five years. Justice is better served cold than not at all!
Bubba's crusade on AIDS is his cover. Making up for past mistakes perhaps?
They say the Scots are so tight , they can squeeze blood from a turnip. If they can squeeze truth from Clinton, they would be the first to do so.
Shouldn't we just save the poor Scots the trouble of trying to get an answer out of him? His testimony will read something like this:
"I do not recall"
"I have no recollection of that"
"Those documents cannot be found"
Great metaphoric analogy!
Clive, do you still have the old ping list of FR's Bloodhounds? They may find this of interest.
He may just say "I didn't sell tainted blood to those poor kids, but my friends may have"
Nothing will come of it. That slimy bass turd will skate again!
I remember hearing about this. I thought the blood ended up in Canada, infecting hundreds of Canadians. It appears to have gone a lot farther than that. I'm sorry for the innocents that have been infected. Hep-C can be a horrible disease. Another jailable offense to the Clinton's rap sheet.
I believe you're a decade too early. Dole was head of the Red Cross during the 90s.
Yes, the plasma was sent to Canada (they couldn't find a buyer anywhere else in the world). Some of it was used to treat hemophiliacs in Canada, the rest was re-labled by the blood broker (Continental Pharma in Montreal) and shipped around the world. Estimated number of infected worldwide from this prison blood=75,000
Scots, wha hae wi' Clinton bled....
(God love the Scots!)
