Every single witness (that spoke on anything I could tell about) lied
under oath. Dean was not worse than the others. My belief as I
observed the proceedings was they every one of them was trying to
contain the damage. (And, of course, not be blamed themselves for their
own crimes.) Do you think I consider the "born again witness" (Colson
wasn't it) any more credible? If you want to assert that the evidence
was hidden, so we can't really be sure, then I will have to agree with
you. But when I look at who was manuvering how to hide it... I make my
estimate of which one I believe is lying more. It was intentional on
the part of all parties involved. There could even have been legitamate
reasons. We can't know. After the hearing they sealed all the evidence
and said that nobody could see it for ?? was it 300 years? Some
rediculously long period of time, anyway. Long before then all the
tapes will have been corroded, the papers will become too brittle to
handle, etc. The real idea was that nobody should ever be able to find
out legally on what the decision was really based.
You've got to trust the government. They won't give you enough
information to do anything else.
