9/11-linked Louis Freeh As Penn State Pedo Investigator

Moderators: Please consolidate this into a more appropriate thread if one exists.


If you never entertained the possibility that the Penn State Pedophile Scandal is the tip of a very high-profile iceberg, a pedophile ring rising into some very high corridors of power, perhaps you should examine Louis Freeh and consider what it means that (like Kissinger being named to lead the 9/11 Commission) this wolf will be investigating the henhouse:

For Your Consideration:
Penn State investigator Freeh had rocky FBI tenure
WASHINGTON | Mon Nov 21, 2011 12:00pm EST
Reuters: http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/ ... KH20111121

(Reuters) - Louis Freeh, named on Monday to head an investigation into the child sex abuse scandal at Penn State University, served for eight years as director of the FBI where he faced widespread criticism for a series of high-profile blunders.

Freeh was named by trustees of Penn State to examine why an assistant football coach was allegedly allowed to repeatedly sexually abuse boys over a period of nearly 15 years.

The strongest criticism of Freeh's controversial tenure as FBI head from 1993 to June 2011 came from the commission that investigated the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.

Under Freeh, the FBI was hampered by a resistance to change, inadequate resources and legal barriers, a September 11 commission report said. Freeh also was criticized for failing to usher the FBI into the modern, computerized age.

Testifying before the commission in 2004 about FBI counterterrorism efforts, Freeh said: "The political means and will to declare and fight this war didn't exist before September 11."

Counterterrorism "was not a national priority," he said, adding that operations were severely underfunded and understaffed, partly due to a 22-month hiring freeze imposed by Congress.

During his tenure, the FBI was plagued by several blunders that drew criticism from members of Congress.

One incident involved discovery of a spy in the FBI's own ranks. Robert Hanssen, who had been a FBI agent, pleaded guilty in 2001 to spying for Moscow for more than 15 years.

Another blunder involved misplaced FBI files from its investigation into the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

The discovery of thousands of pages of documents that were not turned over to defense lawyers led to a one-month delay in the 2001 execution of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.

Another incident involved its investigation of nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee, who was suspected of espionage at the Los Alamos nuclear laboratory. He pleaded guilty in 2000 to a less severe charge when the case against him collapsed.

Freeh was FBI chief when FBI agents focused on security guard Richard Jewell as a suspect in the 1996 bombing at the Olympics in Atlanta. It later turned out that Jewell had nothing to do with the bombing.

A graduate of Rutgers Law School in New Jersey, Freeh joined the FBI and served as a special agent from 1975 to 1981 in the New York City field office and at FBI headquarters.

As an FBI agent, he helped run the waterfront racketeering investigation that convicted more than 125 labor leaders, shipping executives and underworld figures.

He became a federal prosecutor in New York, where he headed a team that broke up a major Sicilian Mafia heroin ring.

In 1991, Freeh was appointed a federal judge in New York. In 1993, President Bill Clinton named him FBI director.

Leaving the FBI two years shy of his 10-year term, Freeh, now 61, became a senior vice chairman at MBNA Corp.

In 2007 he founded Freeh Group International Solutions, based in Wilmington, Delaware. The global risk management firm's services include business compliance studies, corporate fraud and corruption investigations and security studies.

September 1993: Freeh Becomes FBI Director

President Clinton appoints Louis Freeh to be the new director of the FBI. Freeh was once an FBI field agent. He will forge alliances with Republicans in Congress. This will drive a wedge between the FBI and Clinton’s White House and national security staff. Freeh will retire in the summer of 2001 (see May 1, 2001). The New York Times will later claim that he “left the FBI badly damaged. Lawmakers in both parties clamored for change at an agency they attacked as ineptly managed, resistant to change, and unwilling to admit mistakes.” [NEW YORK TIMES, 6/2/2002] Increasingly opposed to Clinton, Freeh develops a secret back-channel relationship with former president George H. W. Bush. He uses this relationship to liaison with the Saudi royal family without Clinton’s knowledge. [Joe TRENTO, 2005, PP. 351]


October 8, 2002: Former FBI Director Says FBI Could Not Have Stopped 9/11 Attacks

Testifying before the 9/11 Congressional Inquiry, former FBI Director Louis Freeh says, “I am aware of nothing that to me demonstrates that the FBI and the intelligence community had the type of information or tactical intelligence which could have prevented September 11th. In terms of the FBI’s capability to identify, investigate and prevent the nineteen hijackers from carrying out their attacks, the facts so far on the public record do not support the conclusion that these tragic events could have been prevented by the FBI and intelligence community acting by themselves.” [US CONGRESS, 10/8/2002]


1995-1996: Reports: FBI Watches Hamas Supporters But Make No Arrests

In January 1995, the New York Times reports, “For more than a year the Federal Bureau of Investigation has closely monitored supporters of the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas in several cities, including Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, Detroit, and Dallas.” [NEW YORK TIMES, 1/26/1995] In August 1995, the Times reports, “For well over a year, the FBI has monitored Hamas supporters in several American cities.” [NEW YORK TIMES, 8/16/1995] On March 12, 1996, FBI Director Louis Freeh says to Congress, “We have several instances where we have been able to show the transfer of substantial cash funds from the US to areas in the Mideast where we could show Hamas received, and even made expenditure of, those funds.” He says some of the money raised is sent back from the Middle East to the US to support and expand phony front organizations for Hamas. The FBI, he adds, has a “very inadequate picture of what perhaps is much greater activity” in the US. He notes the difficulty of tracing “those funds to actual military or terrorist operations anywhere outside the US.” Hamas leaders say any such money raised is used for charitable and humanitarian purposes. (Legally, after 1995 it became a crime in the US to fund Hamas, no matter how they spent their money (see January 1995)) In 1997, a Congressional analyst will say it is estimated Hamas receives from 30 percent to 80 percent of its budget from sources inside the US. [NEW YORK DAILY NEWS, 3/13/1996; ASSOCIATED PRESS, 5/26/1997] But in 2002, FBI agent Robert Wright will claim, “Against the wishes of some at the FBI in 1995, when I uncovered criminal violations in several of my cases, I promptly initiated active terrorism criminal investigations on these subjects. I developed probable cause to believe that some of these transfers or transmissions had been of money intended to be used in the support of domestic and international terrorism activities. The illegal transfers that supported specific terrorist activities involving extortion, kidnapping, and murder…” Much of Wright’s evidence will focus on Hamas figures Mohammad Salah and Mousa Abu Marzouk. [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 5/30/2002] FBI agent Joe Hummel will say in 1997 that he has evidence “millions of dollars” passed through the bank accounts of Marzouk. But even though Marzouk is in US custody, he will merely be deported later in 1997 (see July 5, 1995-May 1997). [ASSOCIATED PRESS, 5/26/1997] Federal prosecutor Mark Flessner will later claim that Wright and others in the Vulgar Betrayal investigation were building a strong criminal case against some in this Hamas support network, but they were not allowed to charge anyone no matter how strong their evidence was (see October 1998).

May 30, 2002: Wright Claims FBI Obstructed Efforts to Stop Terrorist Money Flows

FBI agent Robert Wright holds a press conference. He makes a statement that has been preapproved by the FBI. As one account puts it, “Robert Wright’s story is difficult to piece together because he is on government orders to remain silent.… [T]his is in distinct contrast to the free speech and whistle-blower protections offered to Colleen Rowley, general counsel in the FBI Minneapolis office, who got her story out before the agency could silence her. Wright, a 12-year bureau veteran, has followed proper channels” but has been frustrated by limitations on what he is allowed to say (see September 11, 2001-October 2001). “The best he could do [is a] press conference in Washington, D.C., where he [tells] curious reporters that he [has] a whopper of a tale to tell, if only he could.” Wright says that FBI bureaucrats “intentionally and repeatedly thwarted [his] attempts to launch a more comprehensive investigation to identify and neutralize terrorists.”


1994-1995: Wright Allegedly Thwarted by FBI Intelligence

FBI agent Robert Wright had begun to investigate terrorism financing in 1993, and apparently quickly discovered many leads (see After January 1993). However, he will later claim that by 1994, he encounters resistance to his investigations from the FBI’s International Terrorism Unit. Wright will claim, “[T]here existed a concerted effort on the part of agents conducting counterterrorism intelligence investigations to insulate the subjects of their investigations from criminal investigation and prosecution.” In 2002, Wright will claim that the agents were doing this because they were lazy, and he will sue these unnamed agents. [UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL, 5/30/2002] But in 2003, he will suggest that in addition to such incompetence, his investigations into Hamas operatives living in the US were deliberately blocked so Hamas would be able to foment enough violence in Israel to derail the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. He will allege that some people in the FBI had a political agenda regarding Israel contrary to President Clinton’s (see June 2, 2003). [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003]


1996: Vulgar Betrayal Investigation Launched

Vulgar Betrayal, the most significant US government investigation into terrorist financing before 9/11, is launched. This investigation grows out of investigations Chicago FBI agent Robert Wright had begun in 1993 (see After January 1993), and Wright appears to be the driving force behind Vulgar Betrayal. He later will say, “I named the case Vulgar Betrayal because of the many gross betrayals many Arab terrorists and their supporters” committed against the US, but the name will later prove to be bitterly ironic for him. Over a dozen FBI agents are assigned it and a grand jury is empanelled to hear evidence. Wright will be removed from the investigation in late 1999 (see August 3, 1999), and it will be completely shut down in early 2000 (see August 2000). [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003; CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/22/2004; LA WEEKLY, 8/25/2004; JUDICIAL WATCH, 12/15/2004] The investigation will first identify suspected terrorism financier Yassin al-Qadi as a target in 1997, but it will run into many obstacles in investigating him and others. Assistant US attorney Mark Flessner, the lead prosecutor for Vulgar Betrayal, will later claim that supervisors at the Justice Department’s headquarters obstructed the investigation because it appeared to trace terrorism financing to important figures in Saudi Arabia, a key US ally. Wright will later state that had the leads into al-Qadi and others been fully investigated, “I believe the FBI could have identified other significant links to Osama bin Laden, links which may have been addressed to prevent future attacks against the United States by bin Laden and his terrorist trainees.” [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003; CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/22/2004]


1997: FBI Supervisor Said to Hide Information about Hamas Operatives from Other FBI Agents

FBI agent Robert Wright begins investigating two known Hamas suspects believed to be residing in the Chicago area. He asks a relief supervisor whether he has any information about these suspects. The relief supervisor says he does not. Wright spends several weeks investigating the location of these two terrorist suspects, only to later learn the relief supervisor not only knew one of the suspects had been arrested overseas in 1995 as a result of terrorist activities, but that he had placed a copy of a statement provided by the arrested terrorist to overseas authorities in an obscure location where no one would find it. Wright will make this claim in a 1995 court case. He will allege this is just one instance of FBI superiors withholding information from his Vulgar Betrayal investigation. [ROBERT G. WRIGHT, JR., V. FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION, 5/16/2005] One suspect who seems to fit the description of one of the two suspects is Chicago resident Mohammed Joma Hilmi Jarad. He was arrested in Israel in 1995, confessed to being a Hamas operative, then was released and returned to live in Chicago. [NEW YORK TIMES, 8/16/1995]


April 1998: FBI Agent Stifles Investigation into Ptech Figures

FBI agent Robert Wright will later recall that at this time, he is pleasantly surprised when FBI management provides his Vulgar Betrayal investigation with a 10 year veteran agent to assist with his efforts. According to Wright, the unnamed agent is assigned to “investigate a company and its 20-plus subsidiaries which were linked to a major financer of international terrorism.” However, Wright and fellow agent John Vincent will soon become dismayed when they realize the agent is not actually doing any work. He merely shuffles papers to look busy when people walk by. He will continue to do no work on this important assignment until the Vulgar Betrayal investigation is effectively shut down one year later (see August 3, 1999). Wright will claim in 2003, “The important assignment he was given involved both the founder and the financier of Ptech.”
Presumably these could be references to Oussama Ziade, the president and chief founder of Ptech, and Yassin al-Qadi, apparently Ptech’s largest investor. [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003]


October 1998: Vulgar Betrayal Investigation Nearly Shut Down

Two months after the US embassy bombings in Africa (see 10:35-10:39 a.m., August 7, 1998), FBI agent Robert Wright and his Vulgar Betrayal investigation discover evidence they think ties Saudi multimillionaire Yassin al-Qadi to the bombings. Since 1997, Wright had been investigating a suspected terrorist cell in Chicago that was connected to fundraising for Hamas. They discovered what they considered to be clear proof that al-Qadi and other people they were already investigating had helped fund the embassy bombings. Wright asks FBI headquarters for permission to open an investigation into this money trail at this time, but the permission is not granted. Wright will later recall, “The supervisor who was there from headquarters was right straight across from me and started yelling at me: ‘You will not open criminal investigations. I forbid any of you. You will not open criminal investigations against any of these intelligence subjects.’” Instead, they are told to merely follow the suspects and file reports, but make no arrests. Federal prosecutor Mark Flessner, working with the Vulgar Betrayal investigation, later will claim that a strong criminal case was building against al-Qadi and his associates. “There were powers bigger than I was in the Justice Department and within the FBI that simply were not going to let [the building of a criminal case] happen. And it didn’t happen.… I think there were very serious mistakes made. And I think, it perhaps cost, it cost people their lives ultimately.” [ABC NEWS, 12/19/2002] Flessner later will speculate that Saudi influence may have played a role. ABC News will report in 2002, “According to US officials, al-Qadi [has] close personal and business connections with the Saudi royal family.” [ABC NEWS, 11/26/2002] Wright later will allege that FBI headquarters even attempted to shut down the Vulgar Betrayal investigation altogether at this time. He says, “They wanted to kill it.” [ABC NEWS, 12/19/2002] However, he will claim, “Fortunately an assistant special agent in Chicago interceded to prevent FBI headquarters from closing Operation Vulgar Betrayal.” [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003] He claims that a new supervisor will write in late 1998, “Agent Wright has spearheaded this effort despite embarrassing lack of investigative resources available to the case, such as computers, financial analysis software, and a team of financial analysts. Although far from being concluded, the success of this investigation so far has been entirely due to the foresight and perseverance of Agent Wright.” [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 5/30/2002] When the story of this interference in the alleged al-Qadi-embassy bombings connection will be reported in late 2002, Wright will conclude, “September the 11th is a direct result of the incompetence of the FBI’s International Terrorism Unit. No doubt about that. Absolutely no doubt about that. You can’t know the things I know and not go public.” He will remain prohibited from telling all he knows, merely hinting, “There’s so much more. God, there’s so much more. A lot more.” [ABC NEWS, 12/19/2002]


August 3, 1999: Wright Removed from Vulgar Betrayal Investigation

Chicago FBI agent Robert Wright is abruptly removed from the Vulgar Betrayal investigation into terrorism financing (see 1996). The entire investigation apparently winds down without his involvement, and will shut down altogether in 2000 (see August 2000). A New York Post article will state, “[T]he official reason was a fear that Wright’s work would disrupt FBI intelligence-gathering. My sources find this dubious: After years of monitoring these individuals, the bureau had likely learned all it could.… [But] conversations with FBI personnel indicate that he was told informally that his work was too embarrassing to the Saudis. In support of this is the fact that Wright was shut down as he seemed to be closing in on Yassin al-Qadi.” [WASHINGTON POST, 5/11/2002; NEW YORK POST, 7/14/2004] Wright later will claim that a reason he is given for being taken off the investigation is a recent dispute he is having with a Muslim FBI agent who refuses to wear a wire (see Early 1999-March 21, 2000). [FEDERAL NEWS SERVICE, 6/2/2003] He is also accused of sexually harassing a female FBI agent. This charge is investigated and later dropped. [CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/22/2004] Wright is removed from counterterrorism work altogether and remains that way at least through early 2002. [ASSOCIATED PRESS, 3/15/2002]

Re: 9/11-linked Louis Freeh As Penn State Pedo Investigator

Postby temp-monitor » Tue Nov 22, 2011 3:31 am

http://spitfirelist.com/for-the-record/ ... di-part-2/

From Dave Emory's For The Record #679: Freeh At Last (Analysis of the Khobar Towers Bombing: Love Means Never Having To Say You're Saudi):

Central to the effective coverup of the assault was the active collaboration of then FBI director Louis Freeh, whose complicity with Saudi elements associated with both Al Qaeda and the Bush family milieu continues up to the present.

Of paramount importance to the coverup of the Khobar Towers bombing is the profound collaboration between Freeh and Prince Bandar–the point man for the Saudi co-conspirators among the Saudi elite and national security establishment.

Continuing to frustrate the investigation, Freeh attributed lack of progress on Bill Clinton.

Freeh attributed belated Saudi cooperation to the intercession of former President George H.W. Bush. Collaboration between Freeh, the Saudis and the Bush family is a pattern we will observe later in the series as well.

Despite rejection of the Saudi torture-induced confessions by the Shi’a suspects by the Clinton Justice Department, Freeh continued his conspiratorial alliance with the Saudis and, when George W. Bush retained him as FBI director, Freeh continued trumpeting the success of the Saudi investigation, determining Iranian responsibility for the bombing.

Cementing his relationship with the Saudis, Freeh appeared as the defense lawyer for Prince Bandar (“Bandar Bush”) at an April 2009 hearing on the Al Yamamah slush fund investigation.

Although these pieces of information about Freeh do not put him squarely in the domain of the Franklin Scandal, they put him in the same milieu, to use an Emory favorite term.

Remember this? Good ole George Herbert flying to Atlanta as VP and "helping out" Atlanta authorities investigating the child murders - to make sure the investigation was going smoothly.

He always turns up where you most expect him.



Atlanta Revisits 1981 Child Murders
5/15/05
http://truthinjustice.org/wayne-williams.htm
.....
But the pressure to find a suspect was enormous. State Rep. Tyrone Brooks remembers then-Vice President George Bush coming to Atlanta and telling local officials that if they couldn't do it, the feds would happily take over.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Williams

......

On May 6, 2005, the DeKalb County Police Chief Louis Graham ordered the reopening of the murder cases of four boys killed in that county between February and May 1981, which had been attributed to Williams.[9][8] The reopening of the investigation was welcomed by some relatives of victims, who believe the wrong man was blamed for the bulk of the killings and they hoped a new police investigation will uncover the real killer.[10]

DeKalb County Police Chief Louis Graham, formerly an assistant police chief in neighboring Fulton County at the time of the killings, said his decision to reopen the cases was driven solely by his belief in the innocence of Williams. Also former DeKalb County Sheriff, Sidney Dorsey, spoke out stating he believed, Williams was wrongly blamed for the murders, elaborating that "if they arrested a white guy, there would have been riots across the U.S". Dorsey was an Atlanta homicide detective at the time of the Atlanta child killings.[11][12][13] Both men investigated the Atlanta child murders in the early 1980s and have also previously spoken out publicly of their belief of Williams' innocence.[14]

However, the legal authorities in the neighboring Fulton County, where the majority of the murders occurred, have not moved to reopen any of the cases under their jurisdictions. Williams has always vehemently denied the charges, however it is common for prison inmates to deny they did anything wrong.[8]

Fulton's first black police chief dies


Louis Graham, who was named Fulton County's first black police chief in 1991, died Monday after an extended illness, his family confirmed.

Louis Graham, a former Fulton and DeKalb police chief, died Monday at age 71 from complications of multiple myeloma.

Graham, 71, retired from his Fulton post after eight years, but he didn't stay out of uniform for long, joining the DeKalb County Sheriff's Office a year later.

Graham became DeKalb's top cop in 2004 but lost the job two years later after a profanity-laced conversation became public -- the second time in two months he was captured on tape.

The first time, Graham was heard using racially inflammatory language when talking to an officer about his efforts to start a union. The second recording was made, accidentally, by Graham.


Despite the controversy, then-DeKalb CEO Vernon Jones encouraged Graham to remain on the job, saying he feared the chief might be "jumping the gun."

The resignation ended a career that spanned more than four decades. Graham joined the Atlanta Police Department in 1964 at a time when black police officers couldn't arrest white offenders.

He eventually led the APD's homicide squad and, as Fulton's assistant police chief, served on the multi-agency task force formed in the summer of 1980 to investigate the Atlanta Child Murders. Graham was adamant that Wayne Williams, the local talent scout eventually convicted in two of killings, was innocent.

"People ask me often, ‘Did Wayne do it?' And I say, ‘No,' " Graham said in a 1998 interview with "Dateline NBC."

While serving as DeKalb's police chief, Graham reopened four of the "missing and murdered" cases.

"These cases are DeKalb County cases. There has not been any finality to these cases, " Graham told the AJC in 2005.

The investigation was discontinued after Graham's resignation.


Graham was under care at a Riverdale hospice when he died from complications of multiple myeloma.

Re: 9/11-linked Louis Freeh As Penn State Pedo Investigator

Postby Searcher08 » Tue Nov 22, 2011 10:09 am

This reminded me of the murder of the conservative Georgia State Senator who was speaking out against what seems to be an organised child trafficking racket in the state. She and her husband died in a murder suicide (yeah right).

I was also thinking that Atlanta is the major air hub in the US for commerical 'cargo' yes?

Here is a transcript of one of Nancy Schaefer's own speeches: via a Wiki talk page

I’ve been confronted with families struggling to remove their children from the clutches of Child Protective Services. I wrote a scathing report last year, on the corruption in Child Protective Services, and an update, and copies are out on the table. During the last session of the Georgia General Assembly I introduced Senate Bill 415 relating to juvenile proceedings, and copies of that bill are attached to the report on the tables. It called the bill 415 called for the time allotted for the department of human resources to provide emergency care to a child without a court order to be reduced from seven days to 72 hours. It required a court order to enter the residence of a parent or guardian to seize a child. It called for family court to be open to the public, confidentiality and secrecy and family court protects the wrong people. It provided that the immunity in the system shall not extend to the seizures of children that are found to be in violation, nor to the administration of medication to a child over the objection of the parent or custodian, and it provided the state from applying for obtaining, receiving or accepting adoption incentive payments under the federal adoption and safe families act of 1997.

The department of child protective has become a protected empire built on taking children and separating families. This is not to say that there are not those children who do need to be removed from wretched situations and need protection, however, my report is concerned with the children and parents caught up in legal kidnapping. Having worked with probably 300 cases statewide and hundreds and hundreds across the country and in nearly every state, I’m convinced there is no accountability in Child Protective Services. I’ve come to several conclusions, two or three are, one, that poor parents, not always, but often times, are targeted to lose their children because they do not have the wherewithal to hire an attorney and fight the system. The case workers and social workers are very often guilty of fraud, they withhold and destroy evidence, they fabricate evidence, and they seek to terminate parental rights unnecessarily. That the separation of families and the snatching of children is growing as the business grows, because state and local governments have grown accustomed to having these taxpayer dollars to balance their ever-growing budgets. That the bureaucracy is huge, look at who is getting paid, state employees, attorneys, courts investigators, guardian ad litem, court personnel and judges, there are psychologists, therapists, psychiatrists, counselors, foster parents, adoptive parents and on and on. All are looking to the children in state custody to provide job security. That the adoption and safe families act set in motion first in 1974 by Walter Mondell, and later in 1997 by President Bill Clinton, offered cash bonuses to the states for every child they adopted out of foster care. In order to receive the adoption incentive bonuses, local child protective services would need more children, they must have merchandise, that sells, and they must have plenty so the buyer can choose.

Some counties often offer four to six thousand dollars bonus for each child adopted out to strangers. And an additional two thousand for a special needs child. Employees work to keep the federal dollars flowing. But that is only the beginning figure in the formula in which each is bonus is multiplied by the percentage that the state is managed to exceed its baseline adoption number. Therefore, states and local communities work hard to reach their goals for increased numbers of adoptions for children in foster care. As you can see this program is offered from the very top and is run by health and human resources. This is why victims, in child protective services get no help from their legislators, explains why my bill senate 415 suffered such defeat in the judicial committee, and why I was cut off at every juncture and why I was defeated myself last month for my re-election by another republican. The tax dollars are being used to keep this gigantic system afloat. Many grandparents have called me to get custody of their grandchildren, before being lost in the system. Grandparents who lose their grandchildren to strangers have lost their own flesh and blood. The children lose their family heritage, and grandparents and parents too, lose the connection of their heirs.

And that the national centre on child abuse and neglect in 1998 reported that six times more children died in foster care than in the general public. And that once removed to official “safety”, these children are more likely to suffer abuse and sexual molestation than the general population. Think what that number is today, ten years later. Here are a couple of recommendations on my list, called for an independent audit of all state child protective services and for a federal congressional hearing on child protective services.

Abolish, the federal and state financial incentives that have turned child protective services into a business that separates families for money.

I have witnessed such injustice and harm brought to so many families that I’m not sure if reform of the system is even possible. The system cannot be trusted, it does not serve the people, it obliterates families and children, simply because it has the power to do so.

What I have said to you in these few minutes, is that we must confront the fraud in child protective services. Child protective services seizes children using the very system that is paid for by the taxpayer, who actually believes it is used to protect abused and neglected children. The bureaucracy of workers benefit financially by a system that converts children into cash, while destroying families and their lives. No child who emerges from the system can ever be sound or whole. Many disappear, and are never, are ever heard from again.

FBI issues statistics on missing children
33 percent were black in 2005; 58 percent were girls

By THOMAS HARGROVE, SCRIPPS HOWARD NEWS SERVICE
Published 10:00 p.m., Thursday, March 9, 2006

WASHINGTON -- The FBI, for the first time, has complied with a 1990 act of Congress by issuing a public accounting of 662,196 lost, runaway and kidnapped children reported by police to state and federal authorities last year.

Fifty-eight percent of the missing children reported to federal authorities in 2005 were girls, according to the FBI report, and 33 percent were black -- a disproportionately high percentage that surprised advocates for missing children.

"These are very interesting and important statistics," said sociologist David Finkelhor, director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center at the University of New Hampshire. "This shows a pretty dramatic overrepresentation of black kids."

The FBI in the last two weeks released the records at the request of Scripps Howard News Service. The records show that missing-children cases -- at least those actually reported to the FBI -- have been declining during the past 10 years, down from a peak of 791,687 cases in 1995.

But the number of cases bumped up 7 percent in 2005 after several police departments began for the first time to immediately report missing children.

These departments admitted they'd been violating federal law by delaying their reports to the FBI -- often in hopes the children will return home on their own -- or by entirely ignoring cases of suspected runaways. Missing-children advocates warn that police must intervene quickly -- usually within hours -- to prevent homicides in stranger-abduction cases.


Finkelhor called the release of the FBI files "a real coup." He said he is contacting missing-children advocates nationwide to rally support for more detailed data in future FBI reports.

"This might be a very auspicious moment to make some recommendations about what we think ought to be regularly available," Finkelhor said.

The FBI steadfastly maintained for many years that computer records at the National Crime Information Center are confidential, and rarely made missing-children data public. That policy violated provisions of the National Child Search Assistance Act of 1990, which requires annual statistical summaries to assure Congress that local police are obeying its mandate that missing-children cases be "immediately" reported to state and federal authorities.

The FBI still refuses Scripps Howard's request for geographic information showing where children are reported missing.

Other kinds of data the bureau has recently released provide never-before-seen details about missing-children cases.

Most curious is the discovery that a third of missing-children records for 2005 were of black children, nearly three times blacks' share of the general population. Previous estimates based on Finkelhor's studies and records at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children suggested that black children account for about a fifth of the nation's missing children.

The FBI data show that two-thirds of all missing-children reports were for 15-, 16- or 17-year-old youths.

Only 2,223 infants were reported last year.

The files also show that local police classified 16,897 cases -- or slightly less than 3 percent -- as "endangered," meaning authorities feared the children had been kidnapped or were in the company of a dangerous adult.

LA SAC Ted Gunderson isn't available anymore to muddle exposure of male authority crimes with gatekeeping disinfo.
Now that's Freeh's job.

Just to add to the chorus, I have to say that this is, in many ways, the most hair-raising and jaw dropping aspect of this entire sordid and despicable case.

Exactly like Kissinger being appointed to investigate 911.

It makes the case explode hyperdimensionally.

So far I have seen exactly zero coverage of this move that points out the obvious:

There is no reason for the PSU Trustees to make this move UNLESS they want to gain influence with the official investigations. The only defense the Trustees have for the move is that they perceived a PR need to appear thorough and tough on this, and that hiring Freeh and his "dream team" fits the bill. Judging from the media reaction, it does just that.

But take it a step further, and the obvious questions stare you in the face: wouldn't thoroughness haver been better achieved by STAYING OUT OF THE WAY of the official investigations, and PLEDGIND WHATEVER RESOURCES AND ACCESS WAS NEEDED to ensure no stone is left unturned?

And:

Does anyone really believe that the Trustees are interested in doing an investigation of Penn State that could cast it in a worse light than it is already being cast?

Add it up, and the true purpose of the hire becomes clear: lean on the investigators and influence the inquiries away from the most damaging material, whatever it is. Some circumstantial evidence for that is emerging already:

Freeh said his goal was to conduct a comprehensive, fair and quick review. His team of former FBI agents, federal prosecutors and others has already begun the process of reading the grand jury report and looking at records.

Freeh said he spoke with Pennsylvania Attorney General Linda Kelly on Sunday night and was determined not to interfere with the ongoing criminal case.


A spokesman for Kelly said she was aware of the Penn State trustees' special committee, but declined comment about it.


Gov. Tom Corbett called Freeh's selection "a good one," noting his familiarity with grand juries and the role of prosecutors.

Improtant to remember: if and when this gets sidetracked, it will have happened not because of Freeh, but because Freeh was permitted to have influence in these investigations that by law he should be forbidden from getting involved in. If his group turns up one thing germane to the case that does not get immediately turned over to prosecutors, he should go to jail.

Given they are getting paid a fortune from the Trustees, and given also that one or more of the Trustees are going to be a part of the panel conducting Freeh's investigation, what are the chances that information detrimental to those Trustees or PSU gets turned over?

Scumbag fucks.
