There were unproven reports of explosive residue on some of the passenger seats. Also, Ron Brown’s partner was on the plane. Prior to the downing of flight 800, Ron Brown was the crooked Commerce Secretary until his plane was guided into a hillside in Yugoslavia. A nurse who attended him said that there was a bullet hole in his head. She later died from having her throat slit.
The TWA crew member who had the seats tested for residue were promptly charged and thrown in jail. The test showed residue of rocket fuel and explosives.
Why did the FBI take over the investigation from the NTSB?? That had NEVER happened before, even with the Egyptian B767 that went down in the same area.
