"In Search For The Truth" ( PART 33)
Is it me? Or is this what everyone else who runs across or who has had access to all the newspaper articles, thinks as well?
Each article I have read to date makes it appear- Jones, Abbett, and the other Lee County Officials, have contradicted themselves with their responses, to the questions directly asked by assorted staff writers.
In some of the articles from different newspapers, these Officials are asked the same questions as the other newspapers, only the questions asked---are worded differently.
Why are Jones, Abbett, and the other Lee County Law Officials, seeming to give different answers?
Is it, they do not realize they are being asked the very same questions, but these questions, are just worded differently? I mean, there is more than one way to ask someone a question, yet the questions meaning- stays the same. It is just worded differently.
Can these Officials, NOT see this?
I mean these are supposed to be well educated individuals, so one would think these Lee County Officials would surely see the questions meanings, were the same. And also, should their answers not be the same, as well?
Well evidently, NOT !
Because when you actually read several of these articles together at once, the answers are all different, yet the questions are the same!!!!
Maybe someone should clue them in on this, do you think? or maybe.......this might just confuse them more than they already are! Look at the article below.
Please read it carefully, and judge for yourselves.
If need be, go back and read earlier parts of "In Search For The Truth" in which we included articles from past newspapers. I think you will find...............these same Officials were interviewed, and asked these same exact questions!
The only difference is, the questions asked, were worded differently yet, had the exact same meaning.
However; D.A. Abbett, Sheriff Jones, and other Local and State of Alabama Officials, have contradicted- Their OWN ANSWERS!!! The following is one of these examples!
"Prosecutors Close Case On Triple Homicide In Beauregard Associated Press 12-16-2004
BEAUREGARD / Prosecutors closed an investigation into a triple slaying by presenting circumstantial evidence to a county grand jury that pointed to a man who left a suicide note about depression and failing health.
Bernard Vaughan, 69, died from a self-inflicted gunshot two days after the March 26 slayings of William (Scooter) Stephens, 19, Jason Barr, 25, and Daniel Foster, 24.
The three were shot to death in woods near Lee Road 401 in Beauregard after the friends spent the day riding four-wheelers." OK, since when did anyone charged with murder-get convicted on only circumstantial evidence?
The last I knew, the law stated "a person must be found guilty beyond any shadow of doubt".
How does circumstantial evidence, find a person guilty, beyond ANY SHADOW OF DOUBT?
IT CANT!
And, how did the PROSECUTOR, present CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE, to a Lee County Grand Jury?
When according to my interview with Sheri Stephens, (Scooters Mother) she was told by one of the Lee County Officials, There was NOT a Grand Jury, EVEN HELD!!!
So to me, I see this as an out and out, LIE !!! To the FAMILIES, the COMMUNITY, and to the OPELIKA-AUBURN NEWS, all of them WERE DIRECTLY LIED TO!!!!!!!
"Vaughan owned the 50 acres, where these Young Men were murdered." THIS PART IS TRUE ..
The article goes on to say:
"Lee County Sheriff Department, Captain Van Jackson said there was NOT an indication any of the victims were involved in any type of criminal activity, other than possible trespassing, on the property" where these Young Men, were found murdered.
IF THIS IS THE TRUTH, then why were Daniel, Scooter, and Jason, ACCUSED OF BEING INVOLVED WITH ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES, (drugs)? In which these boy's parent's, DEMANDED A TOXICOLOGY REPORT BE PERFORMED ON EACH OF THEIR SON'S.
These tests revealed, NO ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES WERE FOUND, in Daniel, Scooter, nor Jason!!
SO AGAIN, Parents are told ONE THING, the newspaper, ANOTHER!!! Same question---DIFFERENT ANSWER!!
Vaughan's suicide note, recently obtained by the Opelika-Auburn News, made reference to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, a condition linked to Mr. Vaughan's military service.
The newspaper reported this on Wednesday, after the boy's homicides. Yet, Sheriff Jay Jones released Vaughan's "suicide letter" AFTER RECEIVING AN OPINION from Attorney General Troy King's Office, (the Alabama Attorney General) in response to an "open records request" by the newspaper.
WHY????? Did it take ATTORNEY GENERAL TROY KING'S OFFICE, to get Sheriff Jay Jones, TO FOLLOW THE LAW regarding Open Records, which is the "FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT"?
IS THIS SOMETHING, Sheriff Jay Jones, NEVER HEARD OF, or do YOU THINK, Jones was TRYING TO USE HIS POWER, until a "Higher Power within Alabama" INTERVENED??
The last I knew, the SHERIFF, does NOT make the laws, but instead is the person who makes SURE, everyone FOLLOWS, the laws.......
A portion of the 11-sentence letter relevant to the case stated: " What with all the commotion, I am so depressed that I don't want to go on. I believe my health is failing and my PTSD ruins every moment of my life. My poor brain feels like an out-of-control speed freak. I'm sorry. I was born a fool, and I shall die the same way." The handwritten letter was addressed to Vaughan's wife, and was signed--"Bernie".
UMMM!!!!!!!
NOT exactly the truth here, EITHER!!
The note was signed "Bernie" and also under the word " Bernie" was PRINTED, Mr. Vaughan's FULL NAME.
How many SUICIDE NOTES have you ever seen, or heard about.............
WHERE SOMEONE NOT ONLY SIGNS THEIR FIRST NAME, (or nick name) and directly UNDER this, THEY SIGN OR PRINT OUT, their whole entire LEGAL NAME??? I have NOT ever heard of ANY type of a "suicide note" with your full legal name!!! (like who you wrote this note to, does NOT know who-- you are) ??!!
IF YOUR GONNA KILL YOURSELF, You sure as HELL AREN'T GONNA BE THAT DETAILED, and if you have a spouse, I AM VERY POSITIVE, they already KNOW your full legal name!!
"In the note, Mr. Vaughan made reference to the turmoil of the last 24 hours, Jones said. While he doesn't say specifically that he was involved, we consider that strong circumstantial evidence, that he was connected to the homicides."
WHAT is it, that would make someone ( in this case, Sheriff Jones) consider THIS PART, of Mr. Vaughan's suicide note, CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE?
WHAT DID I, MISS HERE?
SO MR.VAUGHAN REFERENCED THE TURMOIL OF THE LAST 24 HOURS, AND THIS MAKES HIM A KILLER???
Again, I am at a loss, as to HOW THE DETERMINATION WAS MADE, (as Vaughan being the person responsible for MURDERING DANIEL, SCOOTER, AND JASON?????
"Obviously a lot of the letter was directed to his wife and family. But I think this gives an idea of where his mind was at the time, Jones said."
NO IT DOESN'T !!!!!
THIS STATEMENTDOESN'T GIVE ME ANY IDEA OF WHERE HIS MIND WAS!!!!!! ACCORDING TO THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH, HIS MIND WASN'T WITH HIS WIFE AND FAMILY!!!!!!
HELL, YOU CONVICTED HIM IN THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH!!! SO HOW IS IT IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH, HIS MIND IS WITH HIS WIFE, AND FAMILY??
YOUR KIDDING RIGHT?
OR ARE YOU PLAYING MIND GAMES, WITH THESE POOR PEOPLE WHO ARE IN SHOCK, DEVASTATED BY THEIR SONS COLD BLOODED MURDERS, AND WHO AREN'T CAPABLE TO SEE, THROUGH YOUR BULLSHIT AND LIES!!!!!
YET I AM OFFENDED, BY THE HIGHER OFFICIALS IN ALABAMA, FOR NOT SEEING THROUGH YOUR DECEITFULNESS, AND FOR NOT PUTTING A STOP TO YOU SHERIFF JONES, ON THE SPOT!
District Attorney Nick Abbett said he couldn't comment on any specific witnesses who testified during the Grand Jury Hearing, but said that Vaughan had made complaints in the past about trespassers on his property.
Also, the circumstantial evidence in the hearing, was "supposedly" pointed ONLY, to Mr Vaughan.
Well of course, District Attorney Nick Abbett COULDN'T COMMENT ON ANY SPECIFIC WITNESSES!!!!!!
( I wonder, why?) DUHHHH!!!!!
BECAUSE THERE WEREN'T ANY!!!
These words came out of Lee County Officials mouths, to Sheri Stephens, (Scooter's Mother). This was their response, when Sheri Stephens asked about the Grand Jury Transcripts, in which she wanted to read, and REFUSED to leave the Justice Center, until the Officials SHOWED them to her.
Then and ONLY THEN, was it revealed to ANY PARENT, there was NO GRAND JURY TRANSCRIPTS TO READ!!!!!!
I REPEAT, NO!!!!!! Lee County Grand Jury was ever held, in behalf of the Boy's homicides, and the involvement of, Mr. Bernard W. Vaughan!! Lee County Officials felt it was a WASTE of the Tax Payers, MONEY!!! Since when, did Elected Local Officials, GET TO MAKE DECISIONS concerning WHETHER TO HOLD a Grand Jury Trial, or NOT TO HOLD a Grand Jury Trial?
So WHO GAVE THESE OFFICIALS THE PERMISSION to discuss among themselves, and vote Mr. Vaughan guilty of a crime, and give the authority to LIE TO THESE PARENTS, about a Grand Jury being held??? THEN TO PUBLICLY STATE THAT THE GRAND JURY HANDED DOWN A "NO BILLS" DECISION???? PLEASE EXPLAIN OR CLARIFY HOW A MOCK GRAND JURY CAN HAND DOWN ANYTHING LET ALONE A "NO BILLS " DECISION? ( JUST IN CASE THE LEE COUNTY OFFICIALS AREN'T EXACTLY SURE AS TO THE MEANING OF "MOCK" GO OUT AND BUY A DICTIONARY AND LOOK UP THE DEFINITION!!!! If You don't believe me Look up a "NO BILLS" decision, IN ANY law dictionary!!!!
The definition of a "no bill" is: The statement made by a grand jury that finds insufficient evidence for an indictment against a person on a criminal charge. Also called "NOT FOUND," "NOT A TRUE BILL," OR "IGNORAMUS."
Just ANOTHER LIE, by these Lee County Officials!!!
As for Mr. Vaughan making COMPLAINTS, why is it when Debbi Foster Murphy READ these supposed "SAME FILES" concerning this information on this Case, THERE WERE NO SUCH REPORTS, about Vaughan making any type of complaints in ANY OF THE RECORDS NOR FILES, she read???? There were NO 911 CALLS!!!!!
There was absolutely NOTHING concerning Mr. Vaughan, and these Boy's !!!!!!!!!
Yet, Please CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG, but when Sheri Stephens read these "supposedly same files and records", there WERE REPORTS OF COMPLAINTS, but WITHOUT any deputy's acknowledgments, or signatures. WHO TOOK THESE COMPLAINTS???!!
I DO BELIEVE, to be used in a COURT OF LAW, and used AS EVIDENCE, these complaints MUST BE SIGNED AND DATED, by the deputy who responded to the call. (if this is the case,where is a complaint from Mr. or Mrs Vaughan?) Another discrepancy I have found while reading through the assorted news articles concerns what D.A.Abbett states. Abbett said, " DNA evidence collected from Vaughan's property did not produce a direct link to the victims", and Abbett also states, " there was a witness to the crime, but not one who could say for certain that Vaughan, was the shooter.
Russell McCullars WAS THE ONLY EYE WITNESS, and had given a complete description of the person who HE SAW standing over the deceased body, of one of the victims.!!
RUSSELL'S DESCRIPTION, of this person, compared to Mr. Vaughan's IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT,yet;ANOTHER LIE!!!
All the evidence points to Vaughan," Abbett said. "I think the grand jury was satisfied with that conclusion and the work done by the Lee County Sheriff's Department. Since there is no one to prosecute, this closes the case from our end."
WHAT DAMN EVIDENCE?????
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE!!!
We are NOT IGNORANT, we can READ, we do UNDERSTAND, and we WILL NOT TOLERATE THE LIES, DECEPTION, AND CROOKEDNESS, for a second longer!! It is time that the Lee County Officials WERE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, for their LACK OF DUTIES, in investigating this triple homicide of: DANIEL S. FOSTER, SCOOTER STEVENS , JASON BARR AND MR.VAUGHAN!!all of which were MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD! WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF UNCOVERING MORE OF THIS CASE EACH AND EVERY DAY. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME, HOPEFULLY A SHORT TIME BEFORE THE WHOLE TRUTH IS MADE PUBLIC, WHERE DANIEL, SCOOTER, JASON AND MR.VAUGHAN ARE GIVEN THE JUSTICE THEY DESERVE, AND HOPEFULLY CLOSEURE TO THE FAMILIES AND FRIENDS OF THIS COMMUNITY IN WHICH SUCH A HORRIFIC CRIME TOOK PLACE ALMOST 3 YEARS AGO. ALL COVERED UP BY INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE A DISCRACE TO HUMANITY TO SAY THE LEAST!!!!
IN CLOSING I NEED TO CLARIFY THAT WITHOUT EVERYONE'S HELP WE SURELY WOULDN'T BE AS CLOSE TO UNCOVERING THE TRUTH, BUT WITH HEART FELT THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND DEDICATION, COMMENTS, AND TIPS WE HAVE MADE ALOT OF PROGRESS. SO I WANT TO THANK EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU WHO HAS HELPED US BY READING, COMMENTING, AND GIVING YOUR OPINIONS, INFORMATION, AND TIPS ON INFORMATION WHICH WE WERE NOT AWARE OF!! GOD BLESS YOU ALL FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE GIVEN OF YOURSELVES TO HELP US IN OUR SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH OF DANIEL FOSTER, SCOOTER STEPHENS, JASON BARR, AND MR. VAUGHAN. PLEASE KEEP READING , POSTING, AND COMMENTING AS WE MOVE FORWARD AND FINALLY FIND OUT THE TRUTH...
AGAIN, these opinions expressed in (Part 33) of "In Search For The Truth" are sole opinions of my own, and DO NOT REFLECT the opinions of anyone else..
THESE ARE MY OPINIONS AND MY OPINIONS ONLY. THEVILLIAGEIDIOT. CINDY MEISTER.
