Injured Hillary Cop Silenced?
NewsMax.com ^ | Wednesday Jan. 2, 2002; 10:19 a.m. EST | Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff

"Not that he wouldn't like to talk. But none of us are allowed to."

Those were the words of Deborah Dymond, wife of Westchester County Police Officer Ernest Dymond, when asked by the National Enquier in November about the injuries her husband sustained on Oct 14 after he was hit by a van carrying New York Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Officer Dymond was mannning a security checkpoint at Westchester County Airport when Clinton's driver, rushing to get her to a Syracuse fund-raiser, sped by at 35 mph and failed to stop for another 100 yards.

Three days later the injured cop described the incident in detail to the Washington Times' Liz Trotta. He said he had to hurl his body into Clinton's van to get it to halt. "I didn't know if we had a terrorist," he explained.

But after Dymond's interview with the Times, someone apparently decided to it would be better for all concerned if he didn't say anything more.

When NewsMax.com finally reached the injured policeman on Oct. 30, he explained that all further comment would have to go through Westchester County Police Public Information Officer Det. William Rheem.

Before hanging up Dymond did confirm that he was still sidelined by his injuries and that Sen. Clinton had yet to inquire about his health, let alone apologize for the accident. But when asked to describe his physical condition he told NewsMax.com, "I wish I could."

So how is Officer Dymond doing now, nearly three months after his unfortunate encounter with the former first lady?

Apparently he's still not allowed to say. When NewsMax called one day in mid-December he politely but promptly hung up. It was 1 o'clock in the afternoon, from which one might infer that he was still out sick.

That would be only a guess, however, since Information Officer Rheem has declined to return repeated calls inquiring about the case over the course of the last month.

The information lockdown on the Clinton accident has been largely successful.

Besides NewsMax.com, the Washington Times and the Enquirer, the only other print outlets to breathe a word about the police officer injured by America's most celebrated elected Democrat are the Drudge Report, New York Post's Page Six and the website for the local Westchester County Cablevision station. (Dymond's plight did attract some attention on talk radio, where Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Don Imus offered initial reports.)

Contrast that with the October altercation between GOP House leader J.C. Watts and an Oklahoma airport security guard, who, unlike Dymond, suffered only insult. The Watts incident was the subject of dozens of reports coast-to-coast, including coverage in mainstream venues like the Los Angeles Times and the Arizona Republic.

But for Officer Dymond, not only hasn't there been any follow-up outside of these pages, there's been no concern whatsoever that the Clintons seem to have successfully imported their unique brand of Arkansas omerta to New York.

The vanishing case of the Westchester cop may be worth remembering the next time you hear someone wondering out loud how Hillary managed to get herself elected Senator in the first place - or dimisses out of hand any prospect that she could one day fullfill her dreams to return to the White House.

Nothing can be inferred from the time of day. Law Enforcement operates 24 hours a day; maybe he was about to go to work for the afternoon shift, or maybe it was his day off.

or maybe he was about to go to bed.

Democratic Party is strong in NY. Any civil servant who is smart will not cross it or pressure will be put on his superiors and I will guarantee his career will be put on hold. If he had a blemish in his past, it will be used against him and might even cost him his career. Welcome to the real world. (To think some in this country want to go overseas and lecture other nations about government ideals).

Maybe pmsnbc will mention the incident when they do a "Headliners and Legends" profile of sinator hillary! < /sarcasm>

After all, they ALWAYS mention Laura Bush's unfortunate accident in her HIGH SCHOOL days.

Unfortunately for Hillary, she isn't fooling anyone.

Many New Yorkers are fully aware of how they've been played for fools by her. They'll remember this incident, as well as others, and I seriously doubt that she'll get re-elected in 2006 as Senator, let alone win the Presidency.

She will retain the Senate seat from NY for as long as she cares to, and I'm 100% convinced she will one day be President....perhaps even as early as `04.

Yeah, and according to you those police and fireman who rushed into the WTC to their deaths weren't to bright either. His statement was that he didn't know who was in the vehicle, maybe terrorists.

Now that you mention it there was a terrorist in the van. I'm halfway through Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay" and Hillary is one evil person. During her Arkansas days she learned how to lie, intimidate and brush aside her enemies. This cop is no different.

Is there a number to call to ask how he is doing? Do we have an e mail address. If it had been a republican Senator he would already be in jail!

It seems you are right about that, Wheezer. Most people don't realize that the Klintons are on the inside. ...since presidents are picked and not chose (due to monstrous voter fraud) Hitlery WILL BE PRESIDENT. Mark my words. (Flame-proof suit on)

I completely agree, and if one pays close attention to how the powers that be treat her...it's obvious that Senator from NY is the not the final stop on her career path.

"Does this strike anyone else an not too bright? He hit the van, not the other way around."

And don't cops have guns in New York? If they think it possible that a vehicle contains terrorists, they will try to stop it by throwing themselves in front of the vehicle? I imagine that real terrorists will find this little bit of information interesting.

I have a pretty strong feeling that neither hillary or gray were ligitimately elected. Hillary? You could count her support outside of NYC on two hands (judging from teh proliferation of Lazio signs located between Westchester and Buffalo).

That's that same crazy and insane look you seem to see on the faces of all mad and nutty people. Fortunately, these people always come to an end. Let's hope Billary will be thrown out of office and never darken any kind of power again. I wish they would throw her in jail. That's the least they can do.

My favorite anecdote from that book is the one about Hitlery's takeover of the Arkansas education bureaucracy. The Arkansas system came to resemble Cuba or North Korea so much so that school principles had to contact the governor's mansion directly just to requisition paper and pencils.

Both Clintons are fascists. Hillary is nearly pure Bolshevik in her power-mad corruption. Bill proved to be a narcissistic psychopath who wallowed in his depraved contamination of our rule of law. They see themselves as rulers.

The Democrat Party leadership is full of accomplices of this Clintonazi corruption, with help from the GOP. American fascism is thriving because "they" control "us" under penalties of law. "Rights" are now privileges to be granted and withdrawn to benefit specific power structures. The power of the Statists must be unchallenged, so they will disarm citizens.

Falsely, those in power believe that they will remain in power. Concord Bridge is dead ahead. This mobilizing WWIII will change this nation by completing the destruction of our Bill of Rights within our "outdated" Constitutional rule of law.

Yes, good point. And if I remember correctly, through herculean efforts by the Clintons the Arkansas scholastic achievements soared from 48th out of 50 states to 49th, OOPS!!!
