My critical thinking skills are quite adequate than you very much. The problem is that the drunken Irish son of a bitch Joe McGinniss wrote some silly book about the MacDonald case about an amphetamine psychosis which was proved later not to be true in court, and he made some naff TV movie about the MacDonald case which was no more to do with the pure unadulterated historical truth than a James Bond book, or a Star Wars movie. The American public are simpletons and they only understand straight lines, and rising house prices.
I could quite easily say that JTF murdered JonBenet Ramsey because his hairs and fibers and blood was found there and that he moved bodies in a sheet. That's because of the presumption of guilt in America. The point of the matter is that in law what the soldier said is not evidence. You must be experienced at weighing evidence.
I have been blocked from posting on Topix, I think because the White House wants to cover-up their bugging and bumping off, and imprisonment, of journalists because they don't like political embarrassment, and the media doesn't like controversy. Officialdom never admits a mistake.
The only reason Dr. MacDonald was prosecuted after he had been cleared during the comprehensive investigation at the Article 32 proceeding in 1970 was because the totally inexperienced homicide detective Kearns told Fred Kassab in New York that Dr. MacDonald had been seeing another woman after the death of his wife Colette. Judge Dupree's son in law North Carolina lawyer Proctor then moved to the CIA and he wanted to cover-up the drug smuggling by the CIA with the murderous Mafia at Fort Bragg by blaming it all on Dr. MacDonald.
For JTF to say that all the evidence was not in at the Article 32 is simply not true. The controversial Stombaugh of the FBI, whose forensic work has come into criticism for his work on the Warren Commission, then made up some theory without facts that Dr MacDonald had supposedly stabbed Colette through the pajama top with an ice pick, and he had supposedly hit Colette with a hairbrush. The Army CID agent Shaw still falsely believed that Colette had murdered the two little girls. It's quite ludicrously unsatisfactory evidence. The Grand Jury were fooled and conned. Doctors are not detectives.
There was a hair in Colette's left hand which miraculously became Dr. MacDonald's hair in 2006 after being unidentified since 1970. That was after the FBI had promised not to tamper with the forensic evidence in their possession. Malone of the FBI then pontificated later on that blonde synthetic hair-like fibers found at the crime scene came from a MacDonald doll with no proof to back that opinion up. Those fibers almost certainly came from Helena Stoeckley's wig. Malone is another controversial FBI lab figure who has been in trouble in other murder cases for his false testimony in the past.
The North Carolina judges have been more like novitiate judges than the elite and best judges needed for a difficult murder. I don't think they fully understand forensics and they are far too gullible about forensic fraud. Stombaugh was never qualified to render an opinion about fabric damage or blood in court. He was supposed to be a hair and fiber man after starting off as an insurance salesman.
Helena Stoeckley gave hints and clues as to exactly what happened in the MacDonald case. She might have made mistakes, or even lied, as to part, but that doesn't mean her story should have been rejected by Judge Dupree. She was never granted immunity and she was mainly interested in saving her own skin. You have got to place yourself in her place in that situation.
I believe that there have been over 100000 unsolved murders in America since the second world war. What is quite transparent to me is that these difficult murders should not be put in charge of totally inexperienced homicide detectives. That just only means the guilty go free and the innocent are convicted. Even many of the FBI are not professional criminal investigators. They are no more capable of solving a difficult murder than the cops at my local police station. This can then lead to gross miscarriages of justice like in the MacDonald case. It's faulty organisation.
