Thank God for Jayna Davis! She has singlehandedly driven this issue into the common stream of thought over our current war. It used to be a 'fringe kook' theory years ago, but the people of OKcity knew.
This ties into the current intelligence probe, the Iraqi 'smoking gun', the corruption of our own government which fights this story at every turn. GO JAYNA!

I just found this little piece of info-- totally unreported so far, and damn incriminating of the FBI:
"There is evidence that the government had advance knowledge about a possible bomb attack on the Murrah building. There is also evidence about other unexploded bombs being taken out of the Murrah building. Is any of this perhaps related to the strange death (after the bombing)supposedly a suicideof Oklahoma City Police Officer Terrence Yeakey?
We don't know whether Yeakey's death is connected to this, but his story is interesting in itself.
Yeakey was one of the very first rescue workers on the scene. He knew a lot about the bombing, according to his wife, and was very concerned about things that he knew. He expressed this to his wife and mother, and his sisters and brother-in-law.
The Oklahoma City Fire Department got a call from the FBI the weekend before the bombing to tell them to be on readied alert for something that could be taking place in the next few days. The Police Department also had some information that came through to them. While they've been very "mum" about that, we've got bits and pieces from some police dispatchers and others.
Evidently Officer Yeakey didn't feel right about keeping his mouth shut about things that he saw that just didn't look right to him.
The evidence itself shows that he obviously was murdered, even though they say he committed suicide. Yeakey was found in the outskirts of the city. He allegedly walked out into a fenced area off the road after having cut both wrists twice and then made another cut on his elbow and then cut both areas of the jugular vein on his neck.
Having lost tremendous amounts of blood in his car and elsewhere, he supposedly then walked all of this distance and then decided to shoot himself. He didn't shoot himself with his service revolver. When a law enforcement officer dies, there is almost always an autopsy. They did not do an autopsy in this case. They proclaimed it a suicide. His family is not satisfied and his wife is not satisfied.
Officer Yeakey, who was a black man, by the way, was very widely liked and respected in Oklahoma City. Was he about to blow the whistle on what he knew about the bombing?
Yes, according to his wife, he was ready to talk. Whoever killed him took his briefcase out of his car. The family finally got the briefcase after some time, but it had been in the custody of the police, who didn't want to give it up to the family. It's also believed by the wife and family that he not only had evidence in that briefcase, but that he may have also stashed other evidence somewhere else, at a storage unit. But that's never been found. "

It's about to happen....

Specter noted that the U.S. Senate was debating the resolution authorizing the use of force against Iraq while the presentation was in progress. I surprised he didn't interject any comments regarding Scottish Law!

Is it possible that my senator is doing something sensible?
To: Dr. Scarpetta
I would not be prepared to give Specter any credit whatsoever. He is showboating and acting purely out of self-serving reasons as is the custom among himself and his 99 other pompous colleagues. That said, sometimes people stumble into doing the right thing for the wrong reasons.

"This is a matter which warrants an inquiry, so we will do it," the senator concluded.Whenever Senator Single-Bullet-Theory gets involved, you can count on obsfucation and disinfo.

Ah, Im glad someone noticed the thread! This deal with the cop being killed (post 2) was news to me. The mountain of evidence hopefully will crash under it's own weight.
The list of guilty parties has to be VERY interesting, since this investigation could yield the 'smoking gun' against Iraq. The harm that this will do obviously far outweighs the usefulness of a proven case against Saddam, due to the conspirators' desire to remain unknown.

It's interesting how attention to this case alternately waxes and wanes. It seems to follow about a two-month cycle, and it seems to ramp up each time.

Whenever Senator Single-Bullet-Theory gets involved, you can count on obsfucation and disinfo. He also did a nice job making sure Ira Einhorn was brought to justice as well.

Davis said she tried to surrender the 22 witness statements and corroborating documentation she uncovered to the FBI in 1997, but requested that agents sign a notarized receipt for the evidence. She said, after consulting with "the legal department," they refused to accept the documents. Why do you think the FBI continues to be disinterested in this info?
To: madfly
I've been watching all of this with some interest, to be sure. I'm surprised so few remember Terrence Yeakey.
Suicide...right! In a pig's eye.
