Diana Letter: Charles Wanted Me Dead
Mirror.co.uk ^ | 1/6/2004 | Jane Kerr

Posted on 01/06/2004 7:59:11 AM PST by Rutles4Ever

PRINCE Charles is the person Princess Diana claimed in a letter wanted to kill her, the Mirror sensationally reveals today.

Before she died in a car crash, Diana wrote: "My husband is planning 'an accident' in my car, brake failure and serious head injury...to make the path clear for him to marry."

She gave the note to butler Paul Burrell who revealed its existence in the Mirror last year. Charles's name was blanked out. Burrell has been asked to hand the document to the coroner who today opens the inquest into Diana's death.

Burrell said: "It has fulfilled its purpose. I wanted to give force to the argument that an inquest must be held."

Only thing thickening here is that butler's sick attempts to make money off a car crash. He just keeps trying harder and harder, in the good old days Charles would have called him out to a duel.

Probably because it was a duplicate. It had been posted last night.

"Burrell has been asked to hand the document to the coroner who today opens the inquest into Diana's death."

That's like appointing Monica Lewinsky executive power over Watergate.

Let's review the scene - driver under the influence, no seatbelts, reckless high speed driving through a narrow tunnel, and game playing with photographers. Yep, sounds like Chuck did it.

If Charles or any other member of the Royal family wanted Diana dead they probably would have used less dramatic means. A well placed bottle of sleeping pills and a note stating that she could no longer go on would have been more their style.

Not really. The winning ticket was turned in today. They won't say if it's the woman who claimed yesterday that she lost it or not... This was a new story. I did another search and didn't find it anywhere...

Dane also posted a thread about it - perhaps his was first.

All the more reason to do away with the archaic monarchy.

Try here:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1052527/posts

I got burned by the search engine's precedence today: It defaults to sort by relevance, instead of by date. So, I missed the exact same article posted about 45 minutes earlier. I asked to moderator to lock mine.

Or, you managed to be the second person to post it almost simultaneously (after not finding it in a search). If there are no replies to one of them, the moderator will delete it.

Proving Diana was mentally unstable. But then we all knew that.
