14 years ago today, on July 20, 1993, the body of Vincent Walker Foster, Jr. was found in a Virginia park, next to a civil war cannon, with an unidentified revolver lodged in the right hand. Vincent Foster died of a small-caliber gunshot wound to his head.
Vince Foster was not only deputy White House counsel but also the personal attorney to Bill and Hillary Clinton. On the night of Fosters death, top Clinton aides made a frantic effort to enter and remove documents from his West Wing office. In the days that followed, federal investigators were stymied in their investigation of Fosters office and strange death.
The following happened within weeks of his death. Vince Foster finally files the missing Whitewater tax returns. On July 19, FBI director William Sessions is fired. Clinton personally orders him by phone to turn in his FBI property and leave headquarters.
That evening, Clinton security aide Jerry Parks' wife Jane says she overhears a heated telephone conversation with Vince Foster in which her husband says, "You can't give Hillary those files, they've got my name all over them."
On July 20, Clinton names Louis Freeh as Sessions' successor.
snip...
There have been several stories which explain Foster’s major function in Little Rock an in DC. He was a courier who would take cash from big-time wannabe’s....and deposit it in a Swiss bank account. His reputation in Little Rock was to quietly get the job done.
Based on some stories going around....a month before the suicide...he had arrangements set up to make another run to Switzerland....probably to take a courier package in (for himself and others). He happened to call and check on his account....and found it empty. The only offered explanation that came up was that the treasury department had “taken” the money. Apparently...what the Clintonites didn’t grasp as they moved in...Bush I had enacted extreme measures to go after Americans hiding unreported money outside of the country. If the treasury department found such money and could prove it...they would simply use their own capabilities to “steal” the money. The owner wouldn’t say a word because he was in serious legal trouble if he got mad about the whole thing.
So some folks think that Foster found his money gone...and then began to find other’s that he worked for in hiding money...whose money had been taken. He likely was very upset about his losses...but the others could have been extremely upset and took blame out on this guy. I would imagine that one or two of them likely brought their hired guy up and ended up shooting Foster. The Clintons knew precisely what he was doing and what his function was....because they likely had money hidden as well. So nothing could be said...because Bill’s little empire would collapse. So special handlers came in and moved the body out to be an appearance of a suicide.
From the Starr report:
"In sum, therefore, the carpet fiber evidence the determination that the white fibers were consistent with a carpet from the Fosters' house and the variety and insignificant number of other fibers does not support speculation that Mr. Foster was wrapped and moved in a carpet on July 20. Indeed, the fiber evidence, when considered together with the entirety of the evidence, is inconsistent with such speculation."
“Even though he was...
LEFT HANDED”
I don’t think that’s important at all! One might not shoot well with their off-hand, but it’s not like you have to aim when you’re putting a gun in your mouth. I don’t think he was a suicide, don’t get me wrong. But being left-handed doesn’t matter in this case. Now, if the suicide note was written by a righty???
Starr wasn't appointed special prosecutor until a year after Foster's death. Hillary must have been psychic.
Foster was, in fact, right handed. But regardless, gun powder residue was found on both his hands.
Did the wh ever give up security video tapes of people leaving the WH that day?
AND he was their bag man -- he was the one making trips to Switzerland to carry money to their numbered bank accounts.

NO Cheers, unfortunately.
Pray for the family, and for justice.
The involvement of Craig Livingston makes this whole thing stink. Why was some low-life,low-level flunkie given the job of identifying the body? He had an awful lot of access.
And Vince wasn’t the only one she has had offed.
From what I’ve read, Vince was an ethical man who really had a problem being an insider to the Clinton crime syndicate.
Simple as that.
No finger prints on it either. How does one tear up a suicide note in little pieces and leave no prints? I guess Vince was "sweating" to much : ) Btw, did the investigation ever take handwriting samples from any of the Clinton personnel?
“The masters of the Democrats and Republicans are one and the same.”
And who picks up the phone to order a man like Ken Starr to cover up a murder?. Even after reading “Tragedy and Hope”, I find this implied fact mind-boggling. It would seem that a credible threat of deadly force would have been needed, so who are the hired guns of the super-establishment? Did the same people get Ross Perot to drop out of the Presidential race in 1992? My tin foil hat is too small.
That long ago already? Wow, time flies. But the Clintons probably have a number of people still looking over their shoulders hoping that they don’t “commit suicide”.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:

No ... there ! ... SEE it ?
Yeah ... the one made by a pole and flourescent light... that one.
I'd say the bwitch was on an (un)holy mission we're not supposed to know of.
That settles it then ... this is no concern of ours ... it's obviously a very hush hush secret mission ...
for the chih'rin.
From what I read, the Clintons had still at the six-month mark of “their” presidency, not put their assets into a blind trust. Hillary! had already started making money selling short on pharma stocks with the threat of a nationalized health care plan. Foster made a number of trips to Switzerland and was suspected of being the Clintons’ bag man. He was also supposed to file their blind trust paperwork but couldn’t get the paperwork done to their satisfaction (too much dishonesty even for a bagman?). The Clintons found someone else to file the blind trust paperwork; Foster knew too much, so he was expendable.
Vince's body was found on July 20.
William S. Sessions was born in Fort Smith, Arkansas. He was a Republican, appointed director of FBI by Ronald Reagan in 1987.
