The death by gunshot of Hillary Clinton’s lover, lawyer, and best friend in 1993 was the highest suspicious death of a government official since JFK. Deputy White House Counsel Vince Foster handled the Clinton’s most secretive matters and hired investigators to track down and threaten dozens of women sleeping with Bill.
Among the many very questionable items in the investigation of Vince Foster's death are the following:
•The coroner’s report says x-rays were taken, but the he testified to Senators none were taken.
•When a paramedic approached Foster’s body, he saw men running away into the woods.
•The first person to find Foster’s body guarded the entrance to the CIA.
•Hillary testified she did not see Foster for a month before his death. A staffer testified she was in his office four times.
•The FBI never ran a check on the one fingerprint found on the gun.
•Paramedic Richard Arthur explained on record why many items were left unreported: “Lt. Bianchi told me from orders higher up that I’m not allowed to talk to anybody about this if I value my job.”
•The official report describes a head wound, but of the 26 people at the death scene, no one noticed a mouth wound or an exit wound in the skull. But several saw a neck wound, just what you might expect if an assassin was pressing a gun up against a taller man like Foster.
•An exit wound appears in the Fiske Report thanks to the doctor at the Fairfax County morgue, Julian Orenstein … but he told a reporter he was surprised the Fiske Report implied an exit wound. “I never saw one directly,” he said.
•Detective John Rolla: "I probed his head and there was no big hole there.”
•The lead prosecutor resigned after much pressure from the Office of Independent Counsel: “They told me, to quote, this is a quote: ‘Back off.’ It was either ‘back off’ or ‘back down.’ They used both.”
•The first officer to take photos, Franz Ferstl, said his seven polaroids were snatched up by a superior at the body scene. They were never seen again. Detective John Rolla took a number of photos that were lost. “I mean, I had them in the office that night, I did reports, and I don’t know what happened,” he testified in Senate Depositions.
•The official photographer for the scene was Park Police technician Pete Simonella. His entire roll of 35 mm photos was declared “underexposed” by the FBI. He was surprised. His camera has never failed before or since.
•Sgt. Bob Edwards arrived and took charge of the scene. The other Park Police officers were not familiar with him. “I didn’t know who this guy was. Nobody [knew] who this guy was,” said Detective Rolla
•Edwards took the seven polaroids taken. Sgt. Bob Edwards was never mentioned by the FBI or Robert Fiske. The Senate never took his deposition. The one and only interview of the first officer in command at Vince Foster’s death scene was conducted years later by the Starr Investigation. It remains secret.
