But, but, how will the secret political policemen of the FBI fabricate cases anymore? Putting a crimp in the American Stasi's traditional way of lying.

FBI, federal agencies to record interrogations.

The Justice Department has made a major reversal of its policy and now presumes that the FBI, the DEA, the ATF, and the USMS all begin video and audio recording of suspect interrogations from July 11. In addition, the memo recommends that agents and their supervisors determine other areas of the investigation process where recordings will help improve the documentation trail.

This policy reversal has been welcomed by defense attorneys as well. They claim that the earlier system of the FBI and other federal agencies using one agent to interrogate the suspect and another to record it on paper lead to many false testimonies and incorrect verdicts. The defense attorneys claimed that when the suspects denied that they had made the statements that the prosecution attributed to them, they faced a situation where the jury was likely to believe the two federal agents against the word of a single suspect.

As I have written before and discussed at some length in other places, the FBI's use of hand-written 302's as the only record of interviews puts you at an inherent disadvantage. It is automatically their version of what you say that gets memorialized and no jury will believe that TWO FBI agents will concoct a narrative to prove their case. Yeah, right. I mean, the tape recorder was only invented in the 1930s. You have to ask yourself why it wasn't until now that the federal police agencies didn't make use of it. The answer of course is that to do so would have cramped their style in the creation of official lies.

I can only presume that next we will see "wag the dog" CGI-altered records as the next predictable step, since secret policemen will always find a way to protect the bureaucracy.

I wouldn't believe these guys as a jurist, but that's why i never get picked. I pray that someday their tune "the Secret Policeman's Ball" changes to "Dancin' with Myself"...; May 23, 2014 at 5:50 AM
SWIFT said...: In the aftermath of Flight 800, many witnesses saw false statements attributed to them on FBI 302's. Were these just errors due to the massive size of the investigation? Nope. They were outright lies used to support the official narrative of what happened to that plane. I use the example of flight 800, but the list of falsehoods is endless. No matter what changes the FBI makes, never trust those thugs.; May 23, 2014 at 6:15 AM
Anonymous said...: This is almost laughable. The words, "presume, recommend, and policy" should clue you. In other words, the DOJ is covering THEIR ass. Meanwhile, the FBI is collectively rolling on the floor in gut splitting laughter while winking at each other. Right. Video ..tape..

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

They'll simply shoot them now. And then "review" and close the case.; May 23, 2014 at 11:27 AM

Everyone needs to recognize that any encounter with LE has a huge potential to turn violent with LE as aggressors. Everything you say and do will be used against you to justify their aggressions. Understand clearly that they will obfuscate, deny and fabricate to defend their aggressions.

They're protected by their own bureaucracy's and the courts. Constitution be damned.; May 23, 2014 at 4:19 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
