This *old* article has generated a lot of interesting comments. Begin at #53 and read to end of page. #71 has a good observation. Don’t miss Maggief’s post #73.

Thanks for the ping.

I wonder why this story from 1 year ago would be published 1 year later? Are they looking for leads as to why he was killed?

As with everything else connected to BO we’ll probably never get the rest of the story.

I love the timeline:

1. Metropolitan Police on March 25, 2008 pulled over Mr. Harris in Southeast for tinted windows (too dark)

2.Shot dead: April 18, 2008

ODD THAT IT TOOK AN ENTIRE YEAR FOR ANY ONE TO MAKE A COMMENT:

There are other stories about his death to be found if you Google his name.

You’re right! I found the link in a comment at www.americasright.com. Didn’t catch the year, just the month and day. Thanks.

Man Fatally Shot in Northeast Had Been Charged in Fraud Case - Passport Information Was Used to Obtain Bogus Credit Cards
Washington Post, The (DC) - Sunday, April 20, 2008
Author: Daniela Deane, Washington Post Staff Writer

A 24-year-old man who was killed in Northeast Washington on Thursday night was awaiting trial for credit card fraud in a case involving information that was stolen from passport applications, court documents show.

Leiutenant Q. Harris Jr. told authorities about the scam after his arrest March 25 during a traffic stop, according to an arrest affidavit filed in U.S. District Court. The document quoted him as saying he got passport information from a U.S. State Department employee, which he used to obtain bogus credit cards.

Harris also told police that an employee with the U.S. Postal Service was in on the scam, intercepting the credit cards before they could be delivered to the residences of people named on the accounts. The State Department and postal employees were not named in the affidavit.

Harris ‘s mother, Cleopatria Harris , said yesterday that she is “absolutely sure” her son was killed because of his involvement in the case. No one has been arrested in the killing.
