To find out how you can receive a 160 page synopsis of this material, put together by Stanford and MIT grad Hugh Sprunt, call Bell Jean Printing at (301) 864-6882. Pay only for shipping, tax, and copying costs. 1. No fingerprints on the gun. 2. No proof that it was his gun. 3. Suspicious people seen in and around victim's car just before the body was found. 4. Eyewitnesses saw the victim's briefcase in his car, yet the briefcase later vanished. So did the files index in his office. 5. All 35mm film of crime scene was either "overexposed" or it vanished. 6. Most of the Polaroid photos of the crime scene vanished. 7. "Independent" investigator Fiske was forced to concede that the victim's head _had_ been moved---after death had taken place and before his body was photographed. 8. Car keys were not found with victim at crime scene, nor were they to be found in his car, yet the conclusion immediately arrived at . . was suicide! (Does this make any sense whatsoever?) 9. The first non-official to see the body said their was no gun in sight; so did the first official to see the body. 10. No blood splatter found. (High velocity .38 bullets through the mouth and head leave splatter!) 11. No bone fragments were found at the scene, yet part of the victim's skull was missing, according to the Fiske report. 12. X-rays vanished with no explanation. (Was it to conceal the fact that Foster had other head injuries besides that of a single bullet?) 13. Dr. Beyer, the examining physician, has a history of mistaking homicide for suicide. In some instances he stated X-rays had been taken; in other instances he stated they had not. Why the inconsistency? 14. According to some reports, Foster's head wound not consistent with a high velocity .38 caliber bullet. Dr. Haut's statement to the FBI was that the exit hole was very small. In contradiction, the Fiske report says Dr. Haut's observation was that the exit-hole was very large. 15. No fingerprints were found on the torn-up "suicide" note, but a palm print was. How can you tear up a piece of paper without leaving any fingerprints on it, even when the paper is 'receptive' enough to take a very clear palm print?! (No determination was made that it was Foster's palm print.) 16. A wound was seen on Foster's neck by paramedics. One described it as a bullet hole. 17. Dr.Haut & paramedics said they viewed the body in a location that is 200 feet from the site officially described. 18. The cannon near where some witnesses say the body was found has been removed from the park. 19. In his report, one paramedic listed the death as a homicide. 20. Numerous hairs and carpet fibers covered Foster's clothing. But his car was never checked to see if any of the same fibers could be found on the driver's seat, as surely there would have been found, had he actually driven himself to Fort Marcy Park. 21. Whereabouts of victim in hours before death remains a mystery. 22. The list of items in his "suicide note" could simply have been some reflection of his plans to resign his White House position, which his wife said he was seriously thinking of doing. 23. Only two bullets in the gun. No matching bullets were to be found in his home or car. 24. The victim planned to give his visiting sister a tour of the White House the next day. 25. The victim's friend and attorney, Jim Lyons, was coming from Colorado to meet with him the next day. 26. Foster had a full lunch before leaving to (supposedly) kill himself. He was jovial, and told his staff he would be back later in the day. 27. In spite of an exhaustive search, no bullet was ever found which matched the cartridge in the revolver that was reportedly found at the scene. 28. The attitude of the body was not consistent with suicide. It was laid out straight, with arms neatly at his side. 29. No one heard the shot. Few people in the surrounding area were even asked. The closest house, which was under construction at the time, was only 400 ft. away. 30. The FBI was kept out of the initial investigation. 31. The lead investigator assigned to go to the body site was performing his first homicide investigation. 32. Victim's appointment book was never found. 33. Victim had been making _overnight_ trips to Switzerland (go one day, come back the next) which his wife didn't know about. Indications are that he had a Swiss bank account which had been mysteriously emptied of $2.7 million a week before he died. His last planned trip to Switzerland had, for reasons unknown, been canceled. 34. Foster had, until coming to Washington, been employed as a $300,000 a year lawyer. His house in Washington was not especially impressive. Yet in the last weeks before his death he had a chronically overdrawn checking account! 35. Police were prevented from searching the victim's home and office. 36. Victim's widow was not interviewed for ten days after the death. Apparently she was shown a gun, silver in color, that was identified as the weapon used. She said it looked like the "silver-colored revolver" she had previously seen at home. The ABC photo very clearly shows a black gun in Foster's hand. 37. No proof that gun found with victim fired the fatal shot. 38. Photos and reports in the possession of the Park Police and FBI are being kept from public view. (Just like the Zapruder film in 1963.) 39. The Fiske Report contains numerous factual errors regarding time and geography at crime scene. It reports a large pool of blood under Foster's head, even though no one who was at the site made any such report. In fact some of those who viewed the body, including Dr. Haut and Corey Ashford, specifically stated to the FBI that there was no blood on the ground. (Ashford is one of the medical technicians who helped pick Foster's body up, to remove it from the scene.) 40. One vehicle seen at park by police and rescue eyewitnesses is ignored in the official record of the case. 41. Park Police concluded their investigation before they sent the gun for testing to see if it could fire. 42. Death was ruled a suicide before the investigators viewed the body. 43. The crime scene was never totally secured. (There are access roads near the body site, in the opposite direction from the parking lot where Foster's car was found. Access to the body, from these roads, was never blocked off in any way. 44. No damage whatsoever to victim's teeth from the recoil of a .38, allegedly placed in his mouth. This pistol has a rather substantial steel aiming device mounted at the top of the end of the 4-inch barrel. 45. Wildly conflicting testimony re: the time at which the victim was identified. 46. There is no evidence to support the Fiske report that the victim had lost weight . The only evidence is that he had _gained_ weight. 47. Conflicting testimony as to when the White House was told of the death---from as early as 6:00 PM, according to the initial report from Chelsea's nanny, to the official time of 8:30 PM. 48. The phone number of a Secret Service officer was found in the notebook of Park Police investigator Rolla. Immediately following this entry was the address and phone number of Vince Foster. When asked about this during his deposition, the record shows that Rolla got nervous and flustered. 49. Eyewitness testimony is in disagreement as to whether victim's car was initially found locked. Some say it was locked. But the car keys were "found" much later, at the morgue, in a front pocket that had already been searched at the scene. How then was Foster's car opened up?! 50. Because of interference with prosecutor Rodriguez' inquiry into this case, he resigned in protest. 51. Marsha Scott met with Foster, her friend of 20 years, in an unusual 1-2 hour closed-door meeting the day before he died. After Foster died, the _only_ thing Ms. Scott said she could remember discussing, from her long meeting, was that Foster had a good weekend. (!) 52. The ABC News photo published showing Foster's hand with the gun is not consistent with eyewitness accounts of the scene. 53. The victim's office, a secondary crime scene, was immediately cleansed of evidence and documents by Clinton administration officials. 54. The victim's personal effects including his pager were returned to the White House within 24 hours---before they could be analyzed by the police. 55. Certain White House personnel, whose names are (for reasons unknown) not in the official record, were prepared to break into Park Police Officer Rolla's desk drawer to obtain a key to the evidence locker where Foster's possessions were being kept. (See p. 91 of Hugh Sprunt's report.) 56. The neighborhood around the crime scene at Ft. Marcy Park was not canvassed by police, to see if anyone had heard a shot, until two _years_ after the shooting took place. 57. Several police officers in Arkansas, two of them on duty at the governor's mansion, have given sworn depositions that they were told of Foster's death, by phone, at 6:00 PM EST. But this would be _before_ police and rescue workers arrived at Ft. Marcy Park! One of these officers immediately informed the governor's wife---more than an hour before White House personnel say they found out about Foster's death. 58. It is unclear when and where the victims car keys were actually found. One rescue worker says they were found on the way to the morgue. Another says they were found at the morgue. 59. Police and rescue workers have been forbidden to discuss the case. 60. No mention has ever been made as to whether there were powder burns inside of Foster's mouth and whether they were consistent with the bullet and spent shell found in the gun at the scene. 61. Shortly before his death, Foster asked his executive assistant put two, inch-thick ring binders, from the National Security Agency, into Bernie Nussbaum's safe. However, Foster did not have the security clearance necessary for possession of such binders. When Foster's assistant revealed, under oath, in an interview by Senate Banking Committee investigators, that she had placed these binders in the safe after Foster gave them to her with this request, no follow-up questions were asked, and no mention was made of any of this in the public hearings which followed. Why not? 62. The gun found at Ft. Marcy Park was composed of parts from *two different guns* and the serial numbers had been ground off both parts! 63. Lisa Foster was given more than $250,000 just prior to her husband's death. It was channeled to her via Vince Foster's sister who works at the Department of Justice. Why was Lisa given this money? Was it hush money? 64. Web Hubbell, in his testimony to the recent Whitewater hearings, when describing his actions FOLLOWING notification of Foster's death is reported to have said, "We searched for Vince Foster's gun in his house". Could Web Hubbell have taken the silver-colored gun from Foster's house, so that the FBI could later show Lisa Foster the "suicide weapon"? The sixty-four thousand dollar question: How could the first Independant Prosecutor, Robert Fiske, have possibly missed _all_ of the preceeding 64 points? How could a truly independent and objective investigator honestly and totally miss all this?! And if he missed it on purpose, what was he trying to hide, why was he hiding it, and for whom was he hiding it? The foregoing list of suspicious events, observations, questions and circumstances was taken, almost entirely, from the 2,726 pages of the 1994 Senate Hearings and Report Volumes (3 of them) that cover the death of Vince Foster. To find out how you can receive a 165 page synopsis of this material, put together by Hugh Sprunt, direct your inquiry Bill Jean Printing, (301) 864-6882 or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sprunt has an MBA and JD from Stanford, as well as a BS and an MS from MIT. He is the lead author of a two-volume, 750 page tax reference work. His words have been published in the NYT, the Washington Times, the WSJ, and Forbes Magazine. He also happens to have been the person to find his grandfather, minutes after the elderly gentleman had blown his brains out with a .38 revolver (the barrel of which had been placed in the mouth). So he knows, personally and vividly, what such a scene looks like. (And also knows that from all descriptions of the Foster death site, no HV .38 caliber bullet through the mouth & head could have possibly taken place at this location.) I've read Sprunt's 165-page booklet from cover to cover and have highlighted and tagged every section referred to in this list. All but two or three of the items on the list can be found both in Sprunt's booklet as well as in the Senate Hearings Report just mentioned. The two or three others can be found in Jim Norman's Fostergate article, which was carefully checked by the staff at Forbes, the staff at Media Bypass, and the staff at the Jerusalem Post, where (i.e. the last two places mentioned) the article was finally published.
