This is the way of the world, and once the elite gets comfortable conspiring and covering up these relatively minor horrors, then those who could make a change, suddenly find themselves COMPROMISED, forced to choose between feeding their families or telling the truth - once the press conspires, as a matter of business policy, to obscure the truth as a favor to those in power, then the press becomes a machine in the hands of the elite to destroy the victims and exonerate the guilty.  And once you’ve compromised yourself, then you’ve sold your soul - you’re tainted, they’ve “got something on you”.  And still, even though it is easy to see how simple it is in this story for dozens to conspire and to suppress the truth, everyone somehow wants to believe that when it comes to 9/11, we suddenly have a lily-white world of do-gooders committed to telling the truth, that the press is composed of honest men who fight government lies and corruption, the government is suddenly peopled by saints, the military manned by selfless heroes who would never commit crimes to benefit large multi-national defense corporations and oil conglomerates. 

You can tell the huge lies by the ease of the little lies.

Wow.  Girl 27.  I was struck by how well Mr. Stenn exposed such an elaborate cover-up, enabled on all sides by the Los Angeles City police, the Culver City Police, the state police, by the studio police, by prosecutors, by doctors, by hired attorneys, by the lot watchman… even by her own mother lied and took payola instead of pursuing the truth - all this elaborate COVER-UP and conspiracy, known to so many and revealed by NONE… over what, to protect some minor bug-eyed yokel film salesman David Ross?  Mr. Stenn opened it up like peeling away the layers of an onion.  He finds the conspiracy instruction sheet in her file – all done to manipulated the truth.  The truth is just a commodity to the elite.

And after watching this, how can you not realize the 9/11 cover-up could be a conspiracy?  Suppose 9/11 were done not by Bin Laden but instead by a powerful moneyed-elite cabal, do you really think that good people would suddenly rush forward to tell the truth, when good people can’t even tell the truth about something as minor as this horrid little rape, something so common that it occurs every day?  But in this case it mattered, because it impinged on the character of Louis B. Meyer, the richest man in America. So it was easy for this man to manipulate the cops, the prosecutor, the media, the witnesses.  So in the case of 9/11, something that really matters, why do you really think the press would act to tell the truth, when you see how the press worked in this case to expose and humiliate this little victim, and covered up MGM’s role in the crime?  If money and power covers up even minor kind of crimes like this rape and Eloise Spann’s rape… then why don’t you believe it is easy to conspire to cover up major crimes?  How easy it would have been for just a few good men to do the right thing and bring out the truth, but instead, they accepted bribes and acted in so many ways to cover it up.  How easy it would have been to hang this little man, David Ross, out to dry, but instead, we see a huge mechanization, a huge cover up to save David Ross’ skin. Over a NOBODY the moneyed elite is willing to stretch its tentacles in every direction to conspire, to cover up the truth.

The truth set Patricia free. As a father of five daughters and five grandaughters I thank you for a story that needs to be told and retold for we live in a society that continues to place the lie as more compelling than the truth. And the beat goes on.
