Developing.
The Memphis medical examiner was recently found bound with barbed wire with a bomb strapped to him. Katherine Smith of the Middle Eatern driver's license fraud case was burned alive with gasoline a few months ago. Any possible connections should be explored.

Is that the woman who worked for the Motor Vehicle dept who gave the ID's to the arabs? If so,that in itself is very suspicious.

Yes that is the same Katerine Smith. She was burned alive inside the car of one of the Middle Eastern types the day before she was to testify at the bail hearing for the driver's license fraud case.

A photo ID pass for Sept. 5 found on one of the men charged with fraudulently obtaining a Tennessee driver's license from a Memphis woman gave him access to the six underground levels of the One World Center building. But which tenant hired Sakher 'Rocky' Hammad, 24, to work on its sprinklers is lost, said Port Authority of New York and New Jersey spokesman Alan Hicks on Friday.

Hammad told federal authorities that he was working on the sprinklers six days before the twin towers were brought down by terrorists, court testimony revealed this week.

It was widely reported in the media that the spinkler systems did not work in the Towers on 9-11.No conclusion has been made as to how the sprinkler systems were disabled in the WTC towers.

I never heard about this! It was an act of terror, was it not? It sure didn't get a lot of press coverage. She died the same as the burn victims in the WTC.

Well, maybe this attorney's untimely demise will discourage potential lawyer types from the profession. One can hope ...

Who wrote the work order?

Not the same. The people killed on 9-11 were victims of terrorism. She was a co-conspirator killed to protect the terrorists.

You are right. I forgot her complicity in the fraud -- I initially thought she was innocent, and merely processed fraudulent documents for the licenses, unaware that they were fraudulent.

I tend to doubt she knew what they were planning, though. Maybe they just found her price, and she couldn't say no. In any case, a horrible way to die.
