Cover-up in the Death of Ron Brown (pdf) - roflcopter2110



Excerpts:
At the time of his death on April 3, 1996, Ron Brown was the highest government official to die since the tragic death of White House deputy Counsel Vincent Foster in 1993.

As Commerce Secretary, Ron Brown was a member of the Cabinet.

He died while on a military aircraft flying an official government mission.

His plane crashed in area of the world where hostilities had been of long duration.

At the time of his death, Brown was under criminal investigation.

All of these factors would have led federal authorities to conduct:
a) a meticulous investigation of Brown's death and the plane crash.
b) a basic investigation using standard practice and following normal procedures.
c) no significant investigation.

Had you answered "a" or "b", you would be wrong.

The sad truth is that the government took action "c": no significant investigation.

It has been more than two years since Brown's death, and some of the basic questions involving his death have yet to be answered:

Why did the Air Force not follow standard procedure investigating the crash?

For the first time in their history of investigations involving plane crashes on friendly territory, the Air Force ignored required procedure and immediately declared Brown's crash an accident.

Why did the Pentagon, on the day of the crash, clearly imply to the press the crash was nothing but an accident caused by bad weather?

The Pentagon made this snap announcement hours BEFORE any Americans even arrived at the crash scene.

As it turned out, the Air Force report on the crash later stated that the weather was actually fine when Brown's plane was landing and did not contribute to the crash.

Why did the White House ask the military not to conduct autopsies on Brown and the other civilians?

The ranking officer present at Dover Air Force Base when the bodies returned from Croatia was Air Force Colonel William Gormley. Gormley stated on a national television show that the White House had been a party to that decision.

Why, when evidence emerged that Brown may have suffered a gunshot wound to his head, was an autopsy not immediately conducted?

All of the pathologists agreed that the wound had the appearance of a gunshot wound.

Why were head X-rays destroyed?

The military predicates its claims that nothing foul happened to Brown because head X-rays showed no metal in his head.

Yet, the military also acknowledges these X-rays have simply disappeared.

Why did the chief of the military's photography unit claim she was told that the X-rays were destroyed to remove evidence of a gunshot?

Destruction of evidence in a criminal case is a crime.

Why hasn't this been investigated?

These are just some of the questions that need answering.
