"The IMs were a prank"

So says the boy denying he's gay. And if a prank, so what? Foley didn't know.

"and the E-Mail is a fake"

I don't know if there is one or more "e-mail" pages, but the first one revealed seemed legit. Two congressmen, Republicans, were inquiring on his behalf.

"CBS News has reported that according to the FBI when CREW gave the Bureau the original set of emails from Rep. Mark Foley to a former House page, they were “heavily redacted.” The FBI is also claiming that it came back to CREW and asked for more information so that it could follow up, but that CREW refused to provide anything further. Reporters from several other news organizations have repeated this allegation. The FBI is lying.

On Monday, October 2, CREW sent a letter to the DOJ I.G.’s office, attaching exact copies of the emails CREW had sent to the FBI on July 21, 2006. Both the former page’s name and the person to whom the page forwarded Rep. Foley’s emails were clearly visible. Moreover, after CREW sent the emails to the FBI, CREW’s only subsequent contact with the Bureau was one telephone call from the special agent to whom CREW had sent the material confirming that the emails were from Rep. Foley. CREW had no further contact with the FBI."

CREWS explanation.

The guy was also 18 at the time of the IMs that we saw so you're right, so what. Foley's a perv and he's gone so the more the MSM tries to push this story the deeper whole they'll dig.
