Officers from the Powhatan Sheriff’s Department arrived Saturday, and she reported missing her purse, along with cash, a checkbook and credit cards. The intruder apparently came in through a window and left quietly. She said she had heard her dogs bark during the night but didn’t think the disturbance was unusual.
After the officers left, she discovered the manuscript was missing from the desk of her first-floor study. Apparently, she said, someone had tried to get into her laptop computer, which, she noted, could easily have been taken but was left behind. She usually leaves her laptop running but found it had been turned off. Also her car was keyed, the antenna broken and her DirecTV satellite system was “messed with.”
She spoke by telephone with a friend, a former private investigator, who advised her to look in the woods around her house. There she found her purse, with the credit cards inside and only the cash, a small amount, missing.
She said she recently had used her new computer printer to produce a copy of the manuscript for editing purposes and inadvertently printed two copies.
Apparently, she said, the intruder eventually discovered the hard copy of the manuscript and had no need for the computer.
How would the PI know/speculate that some of her belongings were in the woods? This does not make sense.
OK, boys and girls, what's wrong with this picture, if one assumes that the intruder's goal was to suppress the manuscript? Let's not always see the same hands....
Really, this is goofy conspiracy theory stuff, fit for people who think that "Occam's Razor" is the brand of box cutter weilded by the 9-11 hijackers.
Well if they were trying to suppress the manuscript they wouold have taken the computer too. Since they only took the printed copy, it appears they were trying to find out just what it says. Forewarned is forearmed.
This was a reporter...not a Clinton-ite. Probably will attempt to sell it to Hillary, but I doubt Hillary would pay $10 for the book....why relive the episode again?
Sounds like the handiwork of Robert Goulet.
