John Kaiser was murdered by agents of death hired by prominent politicians, then let down in big way by an FBI agent who did a very shoddy investigation job, luckily he was posthumously recognized and honoured the Congress and Senate in his country of origin.<br /><br />RIP.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12839785.post-22858109414074672492014-01-16T19:53:29.060-08:002014-01-16T19:53:29.060-08:00Chris,
Competing narratives can sometimes be reso...Chris,<br /><br />Competing narratives can sometimes be resolved by integration. One story may widen to accommodate an alternative narrative within itself.<br /><br />That being said, the concerned public still wonder why was a so called final investigative report based on nothing more than pictorial evidence accepted as conclusive?<br /><br />Then how comes an investigation expert was sent from Texas rather from the headquarters in Washington, DC? <br /><br />Special agents from that part of the world are known for being very thorough and conversant with the basics in dealing with crime scenes, interviewing various sources connected to the case, gathering and handling of forensic evidence, reviewing the same.<br /><br />While at the same time following any other promising or relevant leads before writing up a final confidential report that ends up being sent back to the headquarters in Washington DC, where a version of the official report is then sent to the authorities in the country where crime occurred.<br /><br />So, why was protocol disregarded given the fact that a citizen from that particular nation had been murdered in circumstances that were not mysterious at all, given the preexisting volatile history and relation between the victim and the agents or institution(s) that are believed to have been responsible for the gruesome murder of a beloved <i>old and worthy missionary?</i> <br /><br />Lest the public forgets the fact that the victim was a very loyal individual who had adopted Kenya as his homeland since the early 1960s, at a time when hundreds of thousands of Wengereza and other - two-goodie-shoes - wazungu had hurriedly parked up and left the country before and immediately after uhuru?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
