if you read the report, you'd know that the guy who found Foster's body specifically stated he focused on his head and face and not his limbs before he went to get help. He said he didn't think there was a gun but there could have been. ... Stop making things up.
I won't use the word {wrong} to describe you. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. You must have just misunderstood what the person who found Foster's body is reported to have said. You must have just failed to read or understand what I posted earlier in this thread on that subject. Or perhaps you are just a little delusional because you are so vested in the "it was a suicide" defense of the Clinton administration by Fiske and Starr? In any case, here are the real facts concerning CW's statements ... offered only to help you become a better skeptic. Note that these accounts don't agree with your version AT ALL. In fact, I suspect you can't back up your version with a single source.
The civilian who first discovered Foster's body, is identified as "CW" in his FBI interviews and deposition. Contrary to your claim, he has adamantly maintained that Foster did not have a gun in his hands and that he looked carefully at Foster's arms and hands.
For example, in an radio interview (
http://www.apfn.org/apfn/vince.htm ) seven years after Foster's death, CW said Foster was found "Face straight up. Hands on each side of his body straight away." Both claims are inconsistent with the photos released by Fiske and Starr ... photos whose legitimacy was even questioned by Starr's own top investigator after he quit in disgust.
CW said in that interview "I looked to see if he had something in his hands that he could defend himself with - maybe a rock or something like that. ... snip ... that's why I was so adamant and so sure [that Foster had no gun].
Because I clearly looked at both hands. And they were straight down by his sides, fully extended, straight as can be, and both hands were palm up."
And it's not like CW just saw the body then ran to get help. He's has stated in his various interviews that he stood over the body between one and two minutes. So you see, oldhat, you are simply mistaken about CW's actions and his degree of uncertainty in this matter.
And as I pointed out earlier in this thread (you must have just missed it), Congressman Burton stated on the floor of the House of Representatives (
http://whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/POLITICS/FOSTER_COVERUP/burton_cbs.html ), that he and two other Congressmen went to CW's house and took a sworn statement from CW. Burton said "When the confidential witness discovered the body, he looked very carefully. He was within 18 inches of Mr. Foster's face.
He looked very carefully and saw no gun in either hand. He was very clear in his statement, in the sworn statement before me and the FBI, that when he found Foster, both hands were palm up with the thumbs pointed out away from the body. When the police arrived on the scene, they found his right hand palm down with the thumb pointed in, the gun on the trigger finger, and the gun was partially obscured by his hand and his leg." If we believe Burton, then very clearly, CW said he look carefully at "the limbs" and he was certain there was no gun. In which case, the body was tampered with between the time he saw it and when the photos that Fiske and Starr published were made. In which case, you are {wrong}.
CW's sworn testimony disagrees with the government's claims in other ways, too. The government claimed the body could not have been moved to the park because the vegetation around it was not trampled. But Burton points out that CW said the vegetation was trampled. Also, CW told the FBI he observed a wine cooler bottle near the body when he arrived. But Park Police claimed not to have found one. And Burton states that CW said that on leaving the park, "he looked inside the white Nissan parked in the lot and saw a half-full package of wine cooler bottles, very similar to the one beside the body, a briefcase, and a suit jacket that looked similar to Foster's suit pants." Significant, given that Foster's car was not a white Nissan. It was a gray Honda.
In fact, CW is not the only person to question the car evidence claimed by authorities in this case. Patrick Knowlton had a lot to say about that (
http://nick.assumption.edu/WebVAX/WWeekly/WW18Dec95Foster.html and
http://www.fbicover-up.com/Miquel/Miquel.htm and
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_n24_v49/ai_20106339/pg_2/?tag=content;col1 ). Knowlton said that when he stopped at the park to use the *facilities*, a suspicious-looking man in a blue car appeared to be monitoring him. He also made some observations about the cars in the parking lot at the time Foster was supposedly dead. Those observations do not match the government's story. For example, he said he saw an older brown car in the parking spot where the government claimed Foster's newer grey car was found. After viewing photos of Foster's grey 1989 Honda, he told the FBI that the car he saw in that spot was definitely not Foster's. And other witnesses corroborate Knowlton's version. Not one witness said they saw a grey car. They ALL (even police and medical personnel) say that the car was brown.
Moreover, Knowlton says the FBI's "302" report of his interview with them claims he said things he did not say and alters the substance of things he did say ... all in an effort to make his eyewitness testimony less significant and to dismiss him as a witness. And he has charged that the FBI, Fiske and Starr attempted to intimidate and discredit him. That's a charge that Starr's own top investigator finds credible. That's a charge that the three judge panel monitoring the IOC apparently found credible enough to order Starr attach an addendum by Knowlton making that charge to his final report. An order that Starr then ignored when he released the report to the media.
But back to CW, man of the hour. Appears you're the last person who should be chastising someone for knowing "so little about this case".
