Merged [Ed] Get involved detecting the ade 651 detector / Jim McCormick arrested

Is there any information about investigation or prosecution of the people who made the contracts with McCormick?
 
Good evening.
Why isn't Randi 's name being mentioned in any of the stories being mentioned? He clearly was exposing these characters years ago.
eta: I did not read the whole thread

In answer to some of the recent posts here:

1. Investigations into buyers. reports suggest that Major General al Jabiri and two others are in prison in Iraq for the corrupt purchases, and that the Inspector General at the Interior Ministry continues to investigate others who may have benefited form the bribes.

We hope that the news of the McCormick conviction and sentencing will spur investigations in other countries where the ADE651 and other variants were bought/use are still in use. Notably Thailand and Mexico, but the list is a long one.

2. The gullible and corrupt also tend not to complain.

3. The Randi challenge to the ADE651 back in October 2008 inspired the campaign in the U.K. to put an end to the trade and see the fraudsters brought to justice. I believe it was Richard Saunders who brought the ADE651 to the attention of Randi. Since then quite a few people have been involved in exposing the story and making sure that McCormick was prosecuted. Those involved in the campaign have always acknowledged the crucial part that Randi played in first bringing the ADE651 to wider attention. He has also been mentioned in some of news reports as the investigations continued. However, I must reiterate that the while the initial exposure was critical, it was a poster here, Techowiz, who was most instrumental in the downfall of McCormick. I am not at liberty to reveal in more detail how this was the case, but can assure you that while he seeks no personal credit, if any is due then the largest part must go to him.

There are further cases to be tried involving other variants of this fraud, but legal restrictions prevent further comment at this stage.

If anyone is new to this thread or the saga then a read through the thread and/or a peek at this may help:

And to top it all off, now that James McCormick has now been convicted of fraud the Iraqi military is still using these very expensive and very worthless devices to detect bombs.

Ugh!

Indeed. Article from today:

Al Akhbar / AFP said:
[...] April was the bloodiest month for the country in almost five years, according to the United Nations. [...]

"The issue of the devices that the government imported... is like that person who lies to himself and then believes his own lies," said Yassir al-Khattab, who owns an electronics shop in central Baghdad.

"They know well that the devices do not work, but they use them as a psychological factor, and they will continue to use them because... they do not have anything else to show in front of the public," he said.

Army Captain Saleh Mohammed said security forces do not trust the devices.

"The soldier holding the device is himself not confident in it, but it is imposed on him," Mohammed said.

"We already told the officials that the device is not working properly but they wanted to show the people that they did something," he said.

Mohammed also had sharp words for Britain for allowing the devices to be exported in the first place. [...]

I'm very glad to find out that there's a JREF connection to getting the perpetrators of this despicable fraud!
 
An interesting question my brother brought up was did McCormick's company get export credit guarantees? If it did that might explain why the government seemed so reluctant to take any action.

There is no evidence of Export Credit Guarantees, but there are other possible reasons why the UK Government was slow to take action and that what they did finally do was somewhat less than may have been expected. More to follow on these important questions, but we may have to wait a while until the series of trials are complete.

We are currently awaiting a verdict on Anthony Williamson (XK-9) variant at the moment.

Next up are Sam and Joan Tree, and Simon Sherrard (Alpha 6 variant) and last but not least, Gary Bolton (MOLE/GT200 variants).
 
News just in that Anthony Williamson, the man behind the XK-9 variant has been found guilty. Details to follow.

Pretty dangerous and irresponsible to send him those tablets. Don't the senders know about the homeopathist who committed suicide with them? He took an underdose! :jaw-dropp
 
We now have a confirmed trial date of 1 July for Gary Bolton on the charges of fraud related to the GT200.

This to follow the trial of Simon Sherrard, Sam and Joan Tree on charges of fraud relating to the Alpha 6, scheduled to commence 28th May.
 
Bolton Trial Update

If you are interested in the case of gary Bolton and the GT200 variant here is some recent stuff about the goings on in Court:

And some 'fascinating' background on one of the defence dowsing witnesses:

I am reliably informed that when Crockford was questioned on his involvement with the Rendelsham Forest investigation there was some merriment in Court.

At the request of the Judge in the trial of Mr Gary Bolton on charges of fraud related the to the GT200, I have removed the above posts temporarily. At the conclusion of the trial the posts will be re-instated.

The good news is that it should not be too long before the posts are re-published as the jury retire today in order to consider their verdict.
