The strange tale of a medical examiner

[deminks]

I have been following this strange tale since 2002. A medical examiner in Memphis was found bound with barbed wire with a bomb tied to him outside of his office. The ATF has charged him with faking the incident. His trial began this month. You can find excellent coverage here:

A rather interesting section of the trial covers the individual's military record here:

What makes this so interesting? Other than the weirdness of the case itself, there is the fact that this was the ME involved in the Wiley case (the missing scientist who was "blown off of a bridge by a passing truck"), and was also the ME in a case involving a woman who allegedly sold fake ID's.

Whether anything is connected, or not, it will be fascinating to watch.

1. Thanks, keep us informed. nt

2. I will. I am still going through the articles.

Looks like they had an agent try to duplicate the pose the ME was found in, but the agent was not wrapped in wire.

It also looks like the prosecution brought in an expert who was recently reversed in the Andrea Yates case, and who may not have examined the ME.

The military record is rather interesting as well. Not very clear, but the ME may be special ops.

Google of the ME is showing a lot of articles about the trial. I am quite sure this trial won't be on MSM! LOL.
