ANYONE who actually READ the Freeh report KNOWS that his conclusions were NOT based on actual evidence.
And remember: Freeh NEVER even talked to McQueery.
Yes, it was a lazy hack job - a prosecutor's brief that made no attempt at balance. Freeh and his staff had their minds made up from the beginning: "Guilty, guilty, guilty." After that, it was just a matter of slopping together a report that would jump on the popular bandwagon and satisfy the hungry lynch mob.
