- Before bringing you the investigative update on the mobile
home park 'body snatchers' of Charlotte and Desoto Counties, I'm going
to first address the Florida State employee who was driving the brown Ford
Taurus with the yellow Florida State official tag, No. 201104, heading
south on King's Highway through Lake Suzy at 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday, August
25:
-
- You don't know us (yet), but we were in one of the two
cars you ran off the road as you drove at high speed down the middle of
that two-lane road through our residential area. Does that help jog your
memory? You were behind the Chevrolet Silverado pickup that had the red
and blue windshield strobe lights and non-official 'civilian' Florida tags.
-
- I guess you didn't think either car you nearly crashed
head-on into would turn around and follow you to the red light at I-75...
but surprise! I pulled up behind you and the other victim of your reckless
driving adventure pulled up in front of you in the right lane (next to
the Chevrolet pickup). It was nice of you to wait so patiently for the
light to turn green, as did the pickup you were still behind that no longer
had any strobe lights flashing. That's right... you've been caught abusing
your authority and recklessly endangering lives while you were doing it.
I'm sure your State boss will be having a talk with you shortly... as well
as a criminal judge.
-
- Now, let's talk about the notorious 'body snatchers'
of Southwest Florida. Ever since Friday afternoon, August 13, we have wondered
what happened to the bodies we had seen at the two former mobile home parks
located in Charlotte County, let alone those many bodies in other mobile
home parks residents, National Guard soldiers, and Sheriffs Deputies had
sworn to us they personally observed. As I stated in an earlier report,
we were there before any rescue or emergency services were on the scene...
within 2 hours after Charley had passed through our area. We know what
we saw as we are retired from either military or civilian law enforcement
(or both), with the exception of a minor family member who was with us
that night.
-
- A couple of days ago, it just happened that I ran into
the son of a junior officer who had served with me for many years in the
U.S. Army Military Police Corps. His son is a RA Officer assigned to the
Florida National Guard and was in Desoto County when we met... neither
of us at first knowing the common tie between his retired Army father and
myself. As fate would put it, we ran into each other trying to free a horse
tangled up in some barbed wire on a side road off U.S. 17 south of Arcadia.
He had stopped in his Humvee to offer assistance.
-
- After we realized our uncanny 'family' ties, I asked
him if he knew what happened to all the bodies I had observed a week before
in the mobile home parks. I also told him what we had seen when we later
returned to that area and asked him, as I had already concluded, if this
was a military operation.
-
- His reply was "you saw what you saw," and then
he proceeded to explain what he had been doing since he arrived early Saturday
morning, August 14. I can relay to every reader that, because of the honor
of the 'Esprit de Corps' between Military Police officers, what you are
about to read may seem surreal, but it is none-the-less the truth that
you will surely not hear in the mainstream controlled media.
-
- By 10:00 p.m. on Friday, August 13, both Washington City
and Tallahassee knew of the real devastation and of the many hundreds of
local EDS/EMS confirmed deaths in the wake of Hurricane Charley.
-
- As a part of the emergency S.O.P, specific MP (specialist)
command units were sent to Charlotte County from Ft. Leonard Wood and Ft.
Stewart, most arriving just before dawn on Saturday, August 14. Their specific
orders were to secure all the mobile home parks from the local and State
authorities, and to seal off these areas from all but 'authorized' personnel.
-
- By the time JEB BUSH arrived on Saturday, this had been
fully accomplished in both Charlotte and Desoto Counties. Every County
Deputy, city Police Officer, and all other local Emergency Services personnel
had been 'relieved' from their mobile home park duties by the Military
Police command and re-assigned to other areas.
-
- As part of the operation, a curfew was set into place
beginning Saturday evening for all areas affected by Charley. It remains
in effect tonight as I finish writing this report. This curfew had (and
still has) a two-fold purpose. The first and most obvious purpose was to
control order during darkness, a very legitimate necessity. A multiple
fatality tractor trailer and car accident at a US-41 intersection gave
strength to the curfew due to traffic lights being inoperable.
-
- The second purpose was to carry out search, recovery,
and transport operations by 'authorized' Federal teams. While residents
were kept off the public streets, perimiters were established and non-residents
were denied entrance, the mobile home parks were lit up by Army field generator
units, searched, and bodies recovered. Those bodies were then transported
out of the area on I-75 in refrigerated trucks marked 'Emergency Response
Services' with magnetic signs on the doors. These were some of the very
same trucks that brought supplies into the area from Lakeland, Florida.
It also serves to illustrate why there were so many refer semi's sitting
in Lakeland that were not yet authorized to go to the Port Charlotte area,
and why some were sitting for a day or two at a time at the bulk center
drop-off on I-75 at the rest stop in Charlotte County.
-
- Who - from police to other local and State personnel
guarding the streets - would question the presence of these trucks both
entering and exiting the area as FEMA 'distribution' points were being
constantly supplied 24 hours a day?
-
- This is how it has all been carried out:
-
- Bodies were recovered, placed into standard issue body
bags (as well as large black 'trash' type bags for body parts), loaded
into military 2-1/2 and 5 ton covered troop carriers, sent to either of
two secured 'transfer' areas located near I-75, then loaded into the refer
semi's for their journey to military installations throughout North America.
The truck drivers never knew what their cargo was as they were not only
kept away from the actual loading, but each trailer was well sealed and
locked. No-one knew the better and there was no suspicion since it all
just looked 'routine.'
-
- If you want an 'official' body count from the local morgues,
don't bother as there are no bodies there other than from hospital and
accidental deaths after August 13. There is nothing clever about how the
removal of the 30+ mobile home park bodies was carried out... it's the
standard operational procedure for military operations of this type. Whenever
a civilian population is involved in the immediate area of recovery, they
are isolated by curfews or secure perimeter lines from seeing night operations
being carried out. This is nothing new, and every war Veteran should remember
seeing this carried out in the field of operations, just as it goes on
in Iraq today. But the difference here is that Charlotte and Desoto Counties
are not considered war zones.
-
- In order to verify what I was told above, our growing
group of Vets spoke with a dozen or so National Guard patrols as they stopped
by our neighborhood. While a few were reluctant to say anything to us,
some were not hesitant to talk about everything they had seen... from dead
fish to a body seen floating down the Peace River. Are any who told us
about the bodies revealing national secrets? One Corporal answered that
question when he said, "I thought everyone knew about the bodies.
Isn,t it on the news?" When we told him the 'official' death toll
was around 20, he laughed at us and accused us of playing games with him.
He genuinely had no idea that the public had no knowledge of the truth.
-
- But of course there's no cover-up. As one email I received
today put it, since I can't give him a single name of any of the dead bodies
I personally saw, then I can't be believed. I guess I didn't realize that
I was supposed to check the bodies for picture ID when we stumbled on them
that Friday evening. No-one told us that in order for our eyewitness accounts
to be believed or to be considered authentic, we would have to know the
name and address of every corpse we saw on the side of the road.
-
- A worse tragedy (if anything could be worse than what
has already been revealed) in all this 'body snatching' going on is the
extremely high death toll of migrant workers. In Desoto County, especially
on or near US-17 where the eye of Charley followed to the Northeast, most
mobile homes and all sub-standard housing was occupied by migrant fruit
pickers and undocumented farm laborers. They didn,t legally or officially
'exist' in the first place, so don't expect their deaths to 'exist' either.
-
- But, of course, there's no conspiracy. There are only
25 or so official deaths throughout the entire State as a result of Hurricane
Charley. If you believe that, I have some swamp land in Florida you might
be interested in buying.
