This week I want to speak about an interview, with a former Navy
Seal. His name will not be revealed to protect his identity, but I
will give him the identity of, "Mr. M".

Now, let me share some of the insight, of this interview.

It seems with much surprise, that a lot of my theories to "The Boys
Case", are well supported by someone, who has much more experience
and training, then myself. Through-out this interview, we spoke of
dismantlement, of the type of weapon used, distance traveled by a
bullet, and the skills needed by someone, to commit a crime of this
nature.

What I was told by this expert, that a crime of this nature, was
possible. But with the knowledge and training, also was needed,
constant practice....to keep training skills currant, prime health,
and mental status, all needed to be a factor.

Mr. Vaughn was a Retired LT. C., in the United States Army. I am
sure, sometime during his vast military career, Mr. Vaughn could
have done a war mission, similar to, the boy's homicides.

But, given Mr Vaughn retirement had already existed for at least 20
years, his health, his age, and his Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome,
surely he was not as fast, nor skilled, as he once was, previous.

In further conversation, other facts were discussed, with Mr. M.
Such as dismantling a firearm, discarding this firearm into several
pieces.........so it could not be found,
and fragmentation of bullets, as not to be identified.

It is the view of this Navy Seal, Mr. M., there is much more
to "The Boy's Case", that HAS NOT BEEN REVEALED, to the Families, or
to the Public. Mr. M. believes, illegal activity was involved.

Further into the conversation, Mr. M. told me that Post Traumatic
Syndrome, WAS NOT A FACTOR, due to the 30 years Mr. Vaughn had been
out of, military combat. Also, due to Mr. Vaughn's age, medical
condition,and medications, Mr. M. felt it HIGHLY UNLIKELY, of 1
shooter, murdering all 3 boys, in the allotted time frame, of 15-20
minutes, which is how long it took Russell, to return to "The
Boys".

Should this crime, taken place 20-30 years ago, then Yes, Mr. Vaughn
may have been able to complete these homicides, but not now!

After presenting Mr. M with some of the facts, of this
case.........he expressed to me, He felt some type of cover-up by
local Officials, was evident. It is My understanding and opinion,
that Lee County Officials, knew more about this investigation and
murders, then they let us know.

Mr. M is involved with extensive training in Sniper Maneuvers. He
feels whoever is involved with "The Boy's Murders", is well
skilled, continually practices, and is a very excellent, marksman.
This person would have to continually train his skills, and his
body, to commit such a crime.

Mr. M. also feels, given the description of the crime scene, autopsy
reports, and all the other information ..........this crime required
extensive planning, and possibly, "multiple shooters".

Being that "The Boy's" did NOT KNOW until less then an hour, they
were even going 4-wheeling, the only other possibility would be:
Multiple shooters!

For the Lee County Sheriff's Department to conclude the
only "shooter", was Mr. Vaughn, shows 3 things.

1. A total disregard for the actual facts, of this case.

2. A total lack of knowledge to what it would actually consist of,
to do this crime.(which means further investigation of this case,
should of been done.)

3. Or, the Lee County Sheriff Department had something to hide, or
knew something, to not want this case investigated, properly!

Given Sheriff Jones credentials, and the fact he teaches Forensics,
at Auburn University, I feel it is clear, these first
two...........for the most part, ruled OUT!
Leaving only, # 3.......Officials having or knowing something, they
were trying to hide!

As for the possibility of Mr. Vaughn committing suicide by shooting
himself in the head 2 times, Mr. M. feels this is possible, due to
his military background.

Having family that knew Mr. Vaughn personally and from the people I
have talked to that knew Mr. Vaughn........taking in Mr. Vaughn's
age, his medical health, his mental health, I would have to disagree
with this.

I have also spoke to local people around the area, who knew Mr.
Vaughn, and they tend to agree with my feelings, as well, on this
issue.

I respect Mr. M.'s opinion, in this matter. However, not knowing
how sick Mr. Vaughn was, or knowing him personally, as many area
people I spoke to........ do,

I do not feel, Mr. M. has adequate knowledge of Mr. Vaughn, to make
an accurate analysis, on Mr. Vaughn's death.

I DO feel Mr. M's extensive knowledge and training in firearms, and
being a Navy Seal, does qualify him to pass judgment on "The Boy's"
shootings!

Now, we have an expert's input on this and he agrees this case needs
to be re-investigated, and the facts to these homicides, were never
found.

I would like to ask Everyone to review the past articles, and
prepare for our own conclusions.

Next week I will be bringing you an interview, with Jason's Dad.
Upon conclusion of that interview, we will start cross-analysis each
of the facts, presented to date, among ourselves.

As a group we will use these facts and analysis, as a tool for our
next letter, to Higher Officials. It will also include, a more
detailed list of questions, for Officials to answer, upon the re
opening of this case!

Please post comments, to "Our Article", about my son Daniel's
Murder, on The WeeklyNews, under
"A Search For The Truth", at www.theweeklynews.info or if you'd like
just to email a comment, send to thetruth@akpcsales.net. Look

Daniel S. Foster
September 9, 1979-March 26, 2006 Murdered In Cold-Blood!

During Artie's absence, I Debbi Foster-Murphy, will be updating, "A
Search For The Truth". I've thought about what additional
information, and assistance I can give, to get "The Boys Story"
heard, and the case reopened. I feel readers need someone other then
myself, my opinions and my views. I have decided during Artie's
absence, to interview people of the Beauregard Community, in Lee
County, Alabama. Some interviewed will be friends, some relatives,
and some, I have not yet met....but support These Boys' and Myself,
to get this case reopened.

I feel this will allow, YOU, the Readers, to see how this terrible
crime, and the cover-up, by Lee County Officials, has effected so
many more people, then just the families of "The Boys", themselves.

After reading, please acess, how.....other families, in the
Beauregard Community, are reacting to the Lee County, and State of
Alabama Officials! Compare these other families, with the answers of
my interview, done in Part 4,........ Then, PLEASE....... determine
YOUR OWN VIEWS, AND OPINIONS, and let these Elected Officials know
how YOU FEEL!!!!!! Please do this by commenting on "A Search For The
Truth", The Weekly News, and I will forward all comments to the
Government Agencies!!!!

By speaking out against this terrible crime, and misjustice, LET
YOUR VOICE BE HEARD, to stop the Corruption, and Misjustice, these
young men and their families, have had to endure, thus far!!!!!!

My first interview is with Janet. Janet is whose wedding, that
Scooter Stephens, and Daniel Foster, were to participate in, March
27, 2004. Janet was not related to any of the young men, but is
related to Daniel's then, fiance', Jennifer.

I would like to thank Janet for making her opinions known publicly,
and standing up against State and Local Officials. I also, as
Daniel's Mother, am very proud of Janet, to allow you, the readers,
to get to know, the personalities, and qualities, of Scooter,
Jason ,and Daniel. To show you, this is a community that is
untrusting now, of their local officials.

1. Janet, how did you meet each of the boys?

Daniel, I knew of in high school, at Beauregard. I did not really
meet him.......until he and Jennifer started dating, a year or so,
before his death.

Scooter, I have known for a very long time. He and my brother
Brandon, grew up together. Scooter, was like my little brother.

Jason, I never really personally, knew. I would see him in pass
ing at school, but that was the extent of our relationship.

2. Is there anything special about each of the boys, you'd like our
readers, to know?

Daniel, was a wonderful friend and companion. He was very witty, and
could make anyone laugh. If you were feeling down, you could go see
Daniel, and he'd be able to cheer you right up!

What can I say about "Scooter Pooter"? He was like a brother to me.
He was caring, loving and funny, and just an all around good guy.

Jason, I didn't really know him, but from what I've heard, he was a
loving son, brother, husband, and Father.

3. In "A Search For The Truth " comments, you stated you knew
Scooter, the best. Could you please discribe what type of young man,
Scooter was?

Scooter was a very caring young man. He would do anything for
anybody, and would never complain about having to do it. He was a
wonderful son, fiance', and best friend!

4. Is there anything that sticks out as being "odd", on the day of
the homicides?

The main thing that sticks out is that Ralph Hall was the first to
arrive at the scene. Why didn't he secure it? You would think being
a volunteer he would know to do this. Also, why did the Lee County
Sheriff Department, NOT allow other authorities, to help with the
investigation that day? This didn't happen on the day of the
homicides, but WHY couldn't Russell, testify before the Grand Jury?
You would think the only eye-witness, would be able to! Sounds
fishy!!!!

5. Do you know of anything "The Boys", may have done to Mr. Vaughn,
or others, to warrant their deaths?

I do not know of anything, to warrant their deaths. They were all
great men, and I don't think they would have, gone looking out for
trouble. Around the time of the murders, there were alot of "Meth
Labs", being discovered in the community. I wonder if they came
across something they weren't suppose to? Even if they did, that
doesn't give anyone a reason to murder three young men!

6. Do you feel it odd, that Mr. Vaughn, being officially blamed for
the boy's deaths, was not ever arrested or charged, for the
homicides, while he was alive? Please explain.

I find it very odd Mr. Vaughn was not arrested or charged while he
was alive. In my opinion, Mr. Vaughn, Sheriff Jay Jones, and Ralph
Hall, had something to do with what happened that day. I feel that
Sheriff Jay Jones, arrested Mr. Vaughn, he would tell everything. I
feel they were just trying to buy some time.

7. Do you personally feel, Mr. Vaughn was the responsible party, for
the boys deaths? Please explain.

I do not feel Mr. Vaughn was the sole participator, in the boys'
deaths. I believe there were others involved, but whom? These boys
were strong, and would have done all they could to save the others.
I just don't see how, a 60+ year old man, could manipulate these
boys! I guess it's possible, but I just don't see it.

8. Did you know Mr. Hall, prior to the homicides? What is your
opinion of him now?

I did not know Mr. Hall prior to the homicides. As far as my opinion
now, He is an arrogant ***hole. Why did he make the comment, "If the
boy's were on my property, I'd shoot them too"! That is NOT a
comment, you make after a triple murder!

9. How did the boy's murders, directly effect your family?

The boy's murders hit my family hard! The murders occurred the day
before my wedding. When we heard the news, we were devistated! The
only thing that crossed our minds was, WHY? WHO? Who would do such a
thing? Canceling the wedding crossed our minds several times that
night, but Daniel and Scooter wanted us to go on with it, so we did.
My brother lost his best friend that day! I lost a brother, and a
friend!

10. What if any, information do you feel is relavent to this case,
that has been excluded, from the original investigation?

I can not think of any at this moment. There are so many thoughts of
that day, running through my head! I will be glad to get back to
you, on this one.

11. What is you and your families view on the Lee County Sheriff
Department, now that the Investigation has been formally, closed?

Personally, my view of the Lee County Sheriff Department is, that
they are cold-hearted people! I definately CAN NOT trust them!

12. If this case is not re-opened, what do you feel it will effect
in youself? your family? your community?

My family will be very disappointed.......We will continue to
wonder, "WHY"? I don't think we will be able to trust the Lee County
Sheriff Department, to handle any type of situation, ever again! It
would not be good to live in a community where you can not trust,
your public officials.

13. Janet, is there ANYTHING, you'd like to add to this, that I may
have left out? Anything you may be wondering about, questioned, or
feel is important to get, "The Boy's Case", reopened?

One of my concerns is, Why did Russell not get to testify? Who
cares, if he is just a teen-ager? He could know information that
could CRACK THIS CASE! Was the gun, that was used, in Mr.
Vaughn's "suicide", found?

THANK YOU JANET, for your thoughts, feelings, and questions, about
WHY......THIS CASE WAS CLOSED, and the fact of, how, THIS CASE NEEDS
TO BE REOPENED!!!! I want to say how much I appreciate you doing
this for me, and also, how honored I am, that your family would do
this for "The Boys"!!!!

I also want to include a part of last week's article, that Art
Wallace, wrote. I feel it will be important to readers who may be
new to, "A Search For The Truth", or readers who may feel, there is
no need to post, or feel like, "how could I change anything, for
these 3 young men"?

By making a stand on this local issue, we will send out a message. A
sign if you will, telling our government and local officials that we
will not be miss-treated anymore.

For those who have not been posting but read along every week, and
there are a lot of you. There is your reason to start posting and
get involved. If you sit back and idle while we fight this, then you
welcome this type of abuse of power, and abuse of people, into your
life and your home, and most of all, you welcome it into your
family.

By allowing it into you life and family, you may one day be the
Debbi in an article like this, and think about how you will feel,
when people can’t give you the respect, of a few words or a comment
every now and then.

NYPD Readies For Summer On Beach 74 Street

(This is one of my articles including my photos as it apeared in the local newspaper)

As the warmer weather approaches and beach season is almost upon us, The NYPD is preparing for whatever emergencies may arise.


Despite the rain and temperatures being in the mid-fifties, the special emergency services unit (ESU) launched a training exercise and took to the waters this past Tuesday morning.

Arriving at Beach 74 Street at about 10:00 a.m., onlookers watched as officers suited up for the cold waters. By 11:15 a.m. the unit had its Jet Ski in the water and was going through rescue procedures.

The officers were reviewing how to take hold of someone while on the Jet Ski, securing an injured person on the flotation device towed behind the Jet Ski and launch procedures to get the emergency equipment in the waters.

Facing rough currents and high waves brought on by the weather, the officers spent several rounds in the surf, and the Jet Ski was eventually overturned by the waves. However, the recovery time was remarkably fast and they were back at their routine once again.


By 1:00 p.m., the weather started to break and the officers were still out in the water training. It is with this level of dedication and efforts that help the NYPD ensure the safety of beachgoers enjoying the summer months, and the luxury of living in a beach community.
