Who, exactly, is the source of all those items listed in post #118?
Who, exactly, is it that says that Monaco is hiding something?
First, don't you think that some of us would have been sued by now if Monaco and Lily Safra didn't have something to hide? At least get one of those cute little cease and desist letters?
The information in #118 came from several sources, some of which I can share. Some of it came from hours of background research; some of it came from inductive and deductive reasoning after reading it; and some of it came from watching the particular combination of well-known people with reputations to protect get involved in this case. And yes, some of it came from corresponding with various members of the family.
By the way, have you read the two or three places on this thread where I've stated I'm not 100% sure that Mr. Maher is innocent? What is it about those statements you don't understand? And are you telling us that you're 100% sure that this American is guilty? If you're not, does that mean your mind is already made up without even seeing the evidence?
Is there anything at all for me to hang my hat on with regard to giving Maher a benefit of the doubt?
Does that mean you're okay with an American being thrown in jail for life without being allowed to all his evidence into trial? Just what would it take for you to "give Maher the benefit of the doubt?" What exactly is it that you need "to hang your hat on?" What would it take for you to even entertain the thought that this man just may have been a victim of a Russian mob hit and Monaco's need for a tidy little wrap-up?
Probably something like an autopsy or DNA analysis, right?
Gee, wouldn't that be nice?
I ask for "something to hang my hat on" to give Maher the benefit of the doubt, and instead of cold, hard sourced facts, I get posts like yours berating me for not blindly jumping on the 'save Ted' bandwagon.
I agree that the whole situation stinks to high heaven, and Monaco has done nothing to lend itself any credibility, but Monaco is not the United States, and to expect that place to do things the way we do is naive. Ted definitely did not choose a very excellent adventure when he decided to go be a nurse for some foreign millionaire. Well, we shall see how it pans out. In the meantime, I won't be contacting George Bush to look into the matter.
