As the article dances around, the fatal fire was completely confined to the passenger compartment. No fire from the gas tank, no fire from the engine room. In fact, the amount of damage to the vehicle was so slight that its speed-of-impact would almost certainly not have been enough to cause any fire and PROBABLY not any personal injury to the victim. Probable speed at impact - less than 5 mph.

Assuming the autopsy can tell us something - and that's asking a great deal, given the corpse's condition and the political intrigue in Memphis - we should be able to find out whether she was already at room temp (or at least unconscious) when the perps poured in the accelerant, lit it, and pushed it into the tree...OR if some kind of remote-detonated fuel bomb was used after they'd aided her path toward the tree.

This particular incident has all the hallmarks of a botched assasination attempt that succeeded despite the stupidity of the perps. They DID succeed in bumping her off. But they did it so poorly that the fact that it was a "hit" was immediately apparent.

That said - for a mere drivers' license scandal, someone wanted this gal dead REALLY BAD.

"Katherine Smith, 49, was found burned beyond recognition..."

Then how do they know it was her?

Good Find!!!!!!!!!!!!

.........it may take two or three weeks to complete an autopsy and forensic tests on the car.

The country MAY not have that long.

.........investigators found a Sept. 5 visitor's pass for the World Trade Center in his wallet.........authorities learned that Odtllah drove to Memphis from New York City on Sept. 11

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................

This woman must have known a lot more than is known and has come out. Otherwise, why is she dead?

There's something missing here. That somebody (or somebodys) is probably somebody who has NOT been named in an indictment and doesn't want to be - even to the point of murder.

This case - even if these guys are not terrorists - certainly raises suspicions.

1. All the men are Middle-eastern, and all are illegally in this country.

2. They were paying this woman $1000 each to create a driver's license with false information. They each used a bogus address that could not be traced.

3. Once they were caught, and held without bond, they assumed she would tell all, just to save herself. Therefore this "fender-bender" accident that happened on a straight, four-lane highway, after midnight, in a car that she was "buying" from this Khaled Odtllah raises suspicion.

In an accident that only slightly dents a car, the driver should be able to open the door and escape the car, even if it's on fire - if the driver is still alive.

She was identified with dental records. If she was burned beyond recognition, if would seem difficult to determine if she was already dead when the "accident" occurred.

4. That one of these guys had a pass to the WTC three days before the attack, and said he was working on the sprinkler system, in itself is astounding and suspicious.

I do not believe this was just some Saudis who "happened" to be in NYC at the time of the attack, who "happened" to drive to Memphis to get false drivers' licenses for $1000 each, who "happened" to be "selling" a car to the woman they had bribed, and she "happened" to burn beyond recognition just days before she was to appear in court in an "accident" that caused only a dent in the car.

To me, it is another example of how our Immigration and Naturalization Service is criminally negligent. We need sweeps of neighborhoods to round up illegals who may - or may not - be terrorists. Terrorists or not, we must get them out of our country.

Odtllah was a friend who had asked for help getting licenses six or seven times, Nash said....Nash said that when Sakhera Hammad was arrested, investigators found a Sept. 5 visitor's pass for the World Trade Center in his wallet, Nash said....Federal authorities learned that Odtllah drove to Memphis from New York City on Sept. 11, Nash said.

YET:

Nash said in court Monday there was no reason to believe any of the five men was a terrorist.

What??? All that evidence, and still 'no reason to believe' they are terrorists?

Katherine Smith, 49, was found burned beyond recognition early Sunday in a car crash that a prosecutor described as "most unusual and suspicious."

Ironically, both of her hands and her teeth were missing ... </sarcasm>
