Ron Brown's Body: How One Man’s Death Saved the Clinton Presidency and Hillary’s Future
Cashill, Jack

The mysterious death of Bill Clinton's Commerce Secretary Ron Brown has long aroused suspicion among those who are aware of the unscrupulousness of Slick Willie, Hillary, and their cohorts. In this stunning new book, investigative reporter Jack Cashill fearlessly answers the questions about Brown's death that have been consistently stonewalled and ignored by the Clintons: Why did his plane crash? Why did the White House suppress an investigation of his death? What was the purpose of Brown's trade missions? And what were the larger forces that caused the Clintons to seek international cash through avenues that led Brown to Bosnia in the first place?

For the two most desperate years of the Clinton presidency (1994-6), Ron Brown was at the nexus of all of Slick Willie's unseemly, unsavory machinations -- making him the classic "man who knew too much." In Ron Brown's Body, Cashill (the co-author of the acclaimed investigative blockbuster First Strike: TWA Flight 800 and the Attack on America) follows the Clintons' corrupt trail from Hawaii to Arkansas to Oklahoma to Washington to China, unraveling a maze of deceit, greed, and raw political power and shedding new light on Brown's shadowy role as Clinton fund-raiser.

Consequently, the strange and shocking story of his untimely death exposes the seedy depths of the most corrupt administration in American history.

Hillary's presidential aspirations make Ron Brown's Body much more than just a book of history. This book is a harrowing glimpse into the inner workings of one of the most powerful political machines still operating today -- and irrefutable proof that a Hillary Clinton presidency would be an unmitigated disaster for the United States of America. Jack Cashill reveals:

•How Ron Brown penetrated the Arkansas wall around the Clintons and found a safe spot within their inner circle

•Why Brown boarded that doomed plane to the Balkans in the first place

•The forces that shaped Ron Brown's character and ambition -- and how he came to play such a major role in what may have been the most serious scandal in American history

•Why even Brown's autopsy was left undone

•Enron executives: what they were doing in Croatia at the time of Brown's death -- and why they took their own plane

•The three people most directly responsible for Brown's demise (plus surprising details of what Brown was doing with them)

•Why Brown grew fretful and anxious about the way Clinton was treating him in the months before his death

•The Reno Factor: the strange role that Attorney General Janet Reno played in the Ron Brown saga

•Slick Willie: why he and Hillary were, in his own words, "getting sick and crazy" in mid-1995

•How Brown began to change in late 1995, stepping back from his hitherto no-holds-barred pursuit of filthy lucre

•The tempestuous one-on-one meeting Brown had with Bill Clinton in the winter of 1996

•Jesse Jackson: how he was persuaded to drop his calls for an investigation into Ron Brown's death

•Documents Brown uncovered in early 1996 that threatened to destroy his career -- and take the Clinton Administration down with him

•The courageous woman who, despite enormous odds, has continued to try to uncover the whole truth about Brown's death

•Four key circumstances of Brown's death that any explanation of it has to account for -- and how the official explanation utterly fails to do so

•Why Hillary Clinton visited Bosnia just a week before Brown's death there

•The last, tense moments of the military plane that carried Ron Brown across Bosnia -- including details of its sudden, inexplicable lurch off course

•The strange suicide of the maintenance chief responsible for the navigation system of the airport where Brown's plane was supposed to land

•Inexcusable journalistic complacency that left innumerable nagging questions unanswered about Brown's death

•Was Brown murdered? The truth about his bullet-shaped head wound, including twenty-seven reasons why it appears suspicious

•Three military pathologists and one forensic photographer whose careers were ruined for telling the truth about Brown's wounds

"A straightforward, no-nonsense account of Ron Brown's life and death from someone who understands that politics is a matter of interest, not conspiracy." -- Kenneth R. Timmerman, author of The French Betrayal of America and Shakedown: Exposing the Real Jesse Jackson

"Cashill . . . finds himself in the middle of a genuine murder mystery . . . Smart, insightful, and finally shocking, the great untold story of our time and perhaps the best book yet written on the Clintons." -- Joseph Farah, editor and CEO of WorldNetDaily.com

Saw Jack Cashill on C-span Booknotes. Was very impressed and wanted to share some info with my fellow Freepers. Cashill should not be easily dismissed by those who have an interest in the truth. I'm sure there a many Freepers with more knowledge on the Ron Brown case than I, but I don't see where this book has received it's due.

Will follow-up with a posting to the thread on the "lead cloud" in Brown's autopsy x-rays.

Did they both kill because they could?

Did they both use their 900 stolen FBI files to cover it up because they could?
Did they both use the IRS and their judges to cover it up because they could?

It seems that there is so much interest in political books these days. I'm sure we'll see this book discussed on all the interview shows....in a dream world.

The Unexplained Bullet Wound In Ron Brown's Head From Don Stacey 1-11-2000

A group of concerned citizens including myself have undertaken to resist the media's failure to inform us about important events occurring in our country. Please read this report and circulate it widely to others. Report from Washington A summary of a telephone conference with Chief Petty Officer Kathleen Janoski USN conducted by a group of concerned citizens.

On Wednesday, October 28, 1998, a group of citizens from various parts of the country talked with Kathleen Janoski. CPO Janoski was the Chief of the Forensic Photography Division at the Office of the Armed Forces Medical Examiner in the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology ("AFIP") and is a 22-year veteran of the Navy. The subject of the discussion was the hole in Secretary of Commerce Ron Brown's skull that looked like a bullet hole.

Background

On April 3, 1996, while transporting Mr. Brown and 34 others, an Air Force CT-43 executive transport crashed near Dubrovnik, Croatia. Thirty-three of the bodies, including Ron Brown's, were flown to Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, where they were examined by AFIP personnel. At the time of the crash, Mr. Brown was under investigation by the Office of Independent Counsel (Mr. Daniel Pearson was the Special Prosecutor) and was under subpoena to produce documents concerning the sale of seats on trade missions in a civil law suit by Judicial Watch. The official determination of the cause of Mr. Brown's death was blunt force trauma.

On November 24, 1997, shortly after the Air Force released a voluminous report of its investigation of the crash, an article concerning the report was published in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. On December 3, another article included statements by one of the pathologists on the AFIP team, Lt. Colonel Steven Cogswell (USAF), that there was a perfectly round hole, inward-beveled, in Mr. Brown's skull that looked like a bullet hole. However, no autopsy was performed.

On December 5, Cogswell was put under a gag order. At about that time, he was escorted to his home by military police who seized all case materials on the Brown case.

On December 9, Lt. Colonel David Hause (U.S. Army) another AFIP pathologist and a leading expert on gun shot wounds, confirmed Cogswell's statements. The gag order was broadened to include all AFIP personnel.

On January 8, 1998, the Department of Justice reported that it had looked into the matter and saw no reason to launch an investigation. No one from DOJ talked to Cogswell or Hause. On January 9, the Washington Post reported that the AFIP had convened a review panel of all its pathologists that had unanimously concluded that Brown died of blunt force trauma and that the hole was not a gunshot wound. But Cogswell says he refused to participate in the review and that the only pathologists with expertise in bullet wounds dissented (I.e., himself, Hause & Major Thomas Parsons of the USAF).

Shortly after the Post article, Major Parsons came forth to indicate his dissent to the so-called "unanimous" board conclusion.

On January 13, a fourth member of the AFIP team, Chief Petty Officer Janoski, came forth to confirm the account of the skull hole. She further indicated that she had been told by Jeanmarie Sentelle, a Special Agent with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, that x-rays of Brown's skull had been destroyed after the "lead snowstorm" was discovered. According to Sentelle, a "lead snowstorm" on x-rays is caused by bullet fragments when a bullet disintegrates upon impact.

Also on January 13, Cogswell, Parsons, Janoski and Larry Klayman of Judicial Watch met with Congressman John Conyers, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus. The Caucus is composed of 30 Congressmen, all Democrats. The Caucus called for a Congressional investigation and was supported by the NAACP, the Nation of Islam and Dick Gregory.

On February 12, a Petition to Order Continuation of the Independent Counsel's Investigation into Matters Related to Former Secretary of Commerce Ronald H. Brown was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The NAACP and Dick Gregory filed documents in support of the petition. Apparently the court declined to decide the matter and referred it to Mr. Pearson for action. Apparently no action has been taken.

Although the mainstream media was eerily silent about most of the developments outlined here, Black Entertainment Television and Christian Broadcasting Network and a few others provided some coverage. Talk radio has provided coverage of the matter. Unfortunately most people know nothing about the hole in the skull.

A collection of articles appear at:

www.ruddynews.com/rbrown.html

The Account of CPO Kathleen Janoski

Janoski's duties included photographing the bodies from head to toe. Beginning at the head of Ron Brown, she saw a perfectly round hole in his skull. She said something to the effect "Wow. That looks like a bullet hole." She immediately was "shushed" by Colonel William Gormley, the AFIP pathologist examining Brown's body. She repeated her statement and was again "shushed." Hearing her comment, others in the room came to Brown's body and looked at the hole. The hole was viewed by Hause, Gormley, Commander Edward Kilbane (USN) - all pathologists - and Lt. Colonel Craig Mallak who was doing his residency in pathology. There may have been other personnel in the room who saw the hole as well. Janoski's photo of the apparent bullet hole can be viewed on the Internet at: www.ruddynews.com/photos.html

On the light box at the morgue were x-rays of Brown's skull which were photographed by Janoski. Ironically, her purpose in photographing the x-rays was to test the light meter in her camera rather than record evidence. The photos of the x-rays became critically important when the x-rays apparently disappeared. The Brown files contain 15 x-rays of other parts of the body and the file cover indicates that there are 15 x-rays, indicating that the file is intended to support the conclusion that no skull x-rays were taken.

While photographing Brown's body, Janoski was urged to hurry by Bob Veasey, AFIP investigator working with Colonel William Gormley, referring to "White House pressure."

On the Friday following the crash but before the bodies had arrived at Dover Air Force Base, Kilbane, the team leader, attended a meeting at the West wing of the White House (where the Oval Office is located). On Saturday, a memorial service was held for Brown. President Clinton spoke. On Sunday (Easter) the bodies were examined by the AFIP team.

Cogswell did not view the hole in the skull as he was dispatched to the crash site in Croatia soon after the bodies arrived at Dover. While in Croatia, he was called by Gormley who asked that he check the wreckage to see what might have caused the hole that he described to Cogswell. Cogswell responded to Gormley that, as described, it sounded like a bullet hole. Cogswell checked the wreckage and photos were taken of objects that might have caused such an injury but nothing was found that could have been the cause of the hole. Gormley's call to Cogwell came after Brown's body had been embalmed and released for burial.

Gormley initially stated that the wound was not a bullet hole because it did not penetrate the skull and because the brain was not visible. Later he reversed himself saying that the skull was penetrated and that Brown's brain was visible. He also confessed that no autopsy was ever requested "[b] ased on discussions at the highest level from in Commerce, at the Joint [Chief of Staff] and the [Department of Defense], the White House ?"

Cashill states that the pressure not to perform an autopsy came directly from the White House.

Unlike most "freepers", I know the airport. It is surrounded by hills. Indeed, Dobrovnik city has 500+ hills quite nearby-- the Serbs destroyed this treasure of a city by shelling it from those hills...

When I was in Colombia, and the weather was foggy with only 500 feet visibility, I once asked why we couldn't take off from an airport. I was told that even though it was minimally VFR, the surrounding hills/mountains would be covered and they worried about hitting the higher mountains surrounding the field...and then they pointed out the site of a jet crash five years earlier. Four years later, an American airlines plane hit a mountain at the next airport---it missed a beacon that told them to turn.

Brown's plane should never have tried to do the flight. Unlike commercial pilots, where safety comes first, it was a gung ho type pilot...who took off in marginal weather, and going into an airport with an old fashioned radio beacon...a disaster waiting to happen. Indeed, at the time, there were rumors that a previous pilot refused to fly the group since they wanted him to take chances...

Brown's autopsy might have shown he was shot, or it might not. But given the terrain, the pilot, and the weather, I suspect it was an accident.

I just finished reading "Hillary's Secret War." Richard Poe devotes a chapter to the death of Ron Brown. The more I read, the more concerned I become over an America so blind, so uninformed, so complacent or so completely evil as to put these Clinton creatures in power and that, even after 8 years of them commiting crime upon crime in plain sight, would think it was a dandy idea to put them back in power.

Cashill asserts that the plane was sabotaged--that it was diverted, in the first place to a different airport than what was scheduled. Then, the mechanisms which control the plane's detection of altitude were tampered with by a "fill-in" employee at the airport. According to Cashill, the expert in charge of these matters was found dead of a gunshot wound to the chest the following day. Ruled a suicide.

Wish I had documentation, but just repeating what I heard on the tube.

clinton's been rearing his ugly head too high recently. It's time the world was reminded of the most corrupt administration in history, and what low-life scum the clintons really were.

Ron Brown's Body is at no. 660 on Amazon.com Sunday morning 0711 ET, reduced to $16.99 new and 14.89 used.

clinton used Ron Brown for his personal ends like he used a lot of people, and discarded him when he was no longer useful. Unfortunately, as the review says, Brown knew too much. Remember the survivor of the crash, Sargeant Shelly Kelly, found wandering around the wreckage, but who was DOA of a broken neck by the time they got her to the hospital?
