I watched the Hatfill Press conference in its entirety. He makes a very compelling case for the Richard Jewell treatment he is receiving. If any of his examples are true, it is certainly damning to the FBI and Ashcroft. I have thought the FBI crossed the line after Waco, Ruby Ridge and Richard Jewell.
This is frightening stuff; the gestapo. Hatfill may be unemployable now, but he will be rich if he can prove half of what he said. However, if people remember his face and a good portion think he is guilty, how much good could the money do?
Watching the press conference I kept thinking about the guy that testified before Congress in the Traficant case about his treatment from the FBI. I got goosebumps when he said he supported Ashcraft. This press conference has me rethinking my support for the Patriot Act. I am beginning to think this guys whistleblowing about the Government is what got him in trouble-that's very scary maybe I have loved Dubya too much.
