I think I recall that you were once interested in whether or not this guy was actually a Green Beret. Any info?
To: Rodney King
And how would they know? Phil and Fred have been mainting the Ted Maher thread for a very long time, over a year, I believe. This thread is so long and old, I simply cannot remember without going back and re-reading everything.....but you can ask them; they regularly post here (perhaps today they're working).
To: nicmarlo
Oh, please. Spare us the "you can't retract confessions" routine.
NOTHING prevented him from stating in front of about a zillion witnesses of the press that the confession was coerced.
He did it, he confessed to doing it, and he confirmed it in sworn testimony in open court.
Game, set and match.
Now, due to crowding, he gets to play wife to Pierre in some gross French jail.
It is a suitable punishment, the boy was a loser with a record, IIRC.

"If you don't care about the subject, why the hell did you follow the thread, and then post? I cannot believe the people on this forum that rant about a thread being a waste of time, yet take the time to post on it. Absolute morons."
You read my mind.....

Tsk, tsk, job! Temper, temper! Anyone here would think you're not someone who is merely after the truth, with no ulterior motives.
BTW, even some residents of the Hanoi Hilton managed to blink "t-o-r-t-u-r-e" and flip the bird to the cameras, so don't hand me that sh** about Ted's eeevil jailers.
To: Poohbah
His wife or sister FReeped me on a thread on FR.....telling me he did not light this fire....even though an admission to the contrary was forced out of him. She told me this just a week or so ago (again). I have read other documents and letters, months ago, stating the same thing. Because the thread is very old, I cannot point to any specific post: it's thousands long. But the thread is there for your perusal, with links weaved in and around it.

Wow. Suprising.

You're not answering my question.
He was there, in front of a zillion or so reporters, outside the court, and he didn't say one PEEP about being railroaded.
Mind explaining WHY he didn't??

Nic,
Is it not uncommon for those close to the defendant to feel he was incapable of whtever crime he was accused of?
To: Chancellor Palpatine
Spare us the "you can't retract confessions" routine. Yes; and you just go ahead and remember that if and when you are ever arrested in Monaco, Saudi Arabia, Russia, or similar countries.
To: job
wait, wait, wait: are you suggesting the procedure when obtaining a confession is to send a court reporter in with no voice recording device? Have you not been to a deposition in last 15 years?
IIRC, Freepers were applauding the cleverness of the folks who got American Taliban John Walker Lindh to confess but didn't tape-record his confession. Something about that giving the prosecution the ability to put the witness to the confession on the stand for testimony, while the defense had no recording they could seek to suppress as evidence.

but you still didn't answer the question . . . which leads me to believe your probably switching back to online DOOM, or (if you are the 45 year old fat loser I think you are) online dungeons and dragons . . .

Yes; and you just go ahead and remember that if and when you are ever arrested in Monaco, Saudi Arabia, Russia, or similar countries. Maybe you can't retract them legally, but how does that prevent you from yelling "I didn't do it, they coerced me" to the press?

What about my question, job?

Is it not uncommon for those close to the defendant to feel he was incapable of whtever crime he was accused of?Now just WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, inserting LOGIC AND REASON into a perfectly good tinfoil theory? :o)

Oh, just answer the damn question . . . why is there no recording of the confession, more importantly, a video confession? We've had them in the states for over 20 years, the police in MCO were trained in Quantico, I'm pretty sure they know about taping while getting a confession. All of you MCO apologists will create the most complex path explain away the most obvious flags.

Of course; that's why I'm referring back to the thread....there's lots of information posted there, i.e., links to articles, etc., that bring up legitimate questions about other people's motives and why those people were not ever investigated....(i.e., the wife of Safra, married three times, all husband died and she was the beneficiary, three times, now living in the high-faluten elite British lifestyle, the poor widow, /sarcasm). There are suspcious things going on that have not been investigated, nor brought up during the trial, i.e., why were the body guards not at the house that night? They were otherwise ALWAYS present, but not that night. A bit odd. There's other things too, but that's just off the top of my head.

" Hey Moron, if it was about "Bill" Maher I would be interested. When I read the NO CONTENT post, I immediately reponded and I was number 6 poster. No one but the original poster had posted to the thread when I read it. If you dont like that, stick your rancid head back up where the sun dont shine and be quiet."
My computer says,"(Ted)Maher",with Ted in parenthesis. I knew what this was about before I clicked the mouse. The ones that don't know about Ted Maher can find out by scrolling down the thread. I don't think smarta$$ remarks are necessary to find this out. Y

TED Maher, whose cause has been promoted and discussed at great length on the FR. You must not visit here very often or forgot about this major FR topic of late......
I visit FR at least twice every single day, and have for more than 2 years, and I've never seen the name before. There may have been some long threads, but it's apparently very easy to visit frequently and still miss them...
