    Default Kurt Sonnenfeld and the USA

    This man was a subject of controversy here a week ago. He's (and I suppose many of you know it) the only one who had access to photography in the tunnels of 9/11. Now he's living here, because the government is persuing him. But before getting to the real problem here I'll post a cut and paste.

On June 14, 2002, prosecutors dismissed first-degree murder charges against Sonnenfeld in the early New Year's morning shooting death of his wife. Nancy Sonnenfeld, 36, died of a gunshot wound in the head after she and her husband had celebrated New Year's Eve together. Kurt Sonnenfeld told police that his wife committed suicide. Prosecutors wouldn't comment on specific reasons for the dismissal, but the defense investigation found a note written by Nancy Sonnenfeld which police had not taken into evidence, said public defender Carrie Thompson. "Our investigators found a letter written in Nancy's own hand consistent with a suicide letter, although it was very cryptic," Thompson said. She said the letter said, "What is more beautiful than love and death?" with the word "love" scratched out. "Kurt, please get help." The letter was found behind a framed photograph of Kurt Sonnenfeld. ...Nancy Sonnenfeld's sister, Amy Leek, said the family knew this was coming but would have no comment on the news. ...Kurt Sonnenfeld was a videographer who documented disaster sites for FEMA, including the Sept 11 attacks in New York. Nancy Sonnenfeld was a manager for BSA Advertising. http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drm...208124,00.html FEMA's Denver-based Region 8 Deputy Public Affairs Officer Jim Chestnutt and Public Affairs Officer Kurt Sonnenfeld used Canon XL1 digital video cameras with Mini DV disks through 16- to 18-hour days, shooting Ground Zero, the Pile (the mass of debris at the center of the disaster) and the arduous rescue and cleanup operations. They carried the cameras through the streets, over the mounds of debris, and underground for three weeks. Photographers Andrea Booher and Michael Rieger shot the still photos using Olympus E20 and Nikon D1X digital cameras. The four cameramen passed the Mini DV disk footage to CNN. tvtechnology.com/features/news/fema-1.shtml On March 13th, 2002, Jim Chestnutts office in North Dakota received $2 Million for an anti-flooding program, officially to construct a new lift station governor.state.nd.us/media/news-releases/2002/03/020313b.html Andrea Boohers and Mike Riegers photos are located at app1.fema.gov/usr/usr_d1391c9.htm
    Now here are some links in spanish, because it seems that the ameican press has not treated the actual situation: link.
    The thing is that this guy appeared in a TV show here, and as much as I regard those TV shows, as biased sources, there's some material evidence of what I'm goingo to talk about. You see he was a camaramen of the FEMA, one of the few (i presume) that knows where the chemical and nuclear armament of the USA is hidden and storaged. He was charged with the murder of his ex-wife (Nancy), but the justice dropped the charges when he still was on USA (link). Now when he came here all changed, first our justice inprisoned him because the american authorities passed the information that he was a fugitive. Now in the link in spanish it explains basically why the extraditory request of the USA government was not obeyed, it's because the treaties between our countries doesn't allow the worst punishment to crimes when the matter concerns both states. In this case if he returned to USA, death penalty will be his punishment, here he'll receive a better treatment, so the judge didn't find any strong evidence or circumstances that authoriced an extradiction, thus Kurt Sonnenfeld is now a legitime inhabitant here. The real polemic is not only because the sudden re-beggining of the accusations of the commonwhealt vs. Kurt Sonnenfeld, but because of his declarations. In short he said that he was being followed all the time (him and her new wife) by cameramans who take photographies of him doing anything. Now I couldn't find those photographies, but I saw them on the show. At various locations some guys with cameras behind this persons taking photographies. He also sais something wich I don't agree but...he sais that USA is becoming a very facist country (i agree in part with this) and that Argentina is more free than the last (of course for a guy with certain money and education it could be...). At the very last of the interview, he did not want to tell the reasons that he presumed to be the potencial causals of this persecutions for fear to be just killed by the state of USA. Now nothing here is definitive nor conclusive, but for making opinions it's enough.

    Here's also a link of the case in english: http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/redi...ed072d737073b4

    There does seem to be a hell of a lot of conflicting evidence in this case .

    Oh yes there's and the guy is very afraid. Now he has the protection of our state, but as the government of USA helped the nazi hunters to violate our sovereingty, I think that they can and will do it again and again, while it's in their best interests.

    What I cannot understand is why the prosecution (if they thought they could eventually make a case) didn't ask for a postponmnet or deferral instead of just dropping the charges .
    Is there any medical record of her alledged earlier suicide attempt , ormis it just him saying it happened and her sister saying it didn't ?

    "Polemic" in English is "controversy".

    Other than that I'm pretty confused.

    the finger prints of Nancy were on the weapon,
    And the residue from the gunshot was on her hands not his , she was not shot on the back of the head according to the coroner , but she was according to the police .
    Conflicting evidence ....

    Now I want to know what this is all about... I understand the guy is certainly not being happy here. But why is he a hunted man? What has he supposedly done?
