Sadly the entire panel consisted of the writers of the "new" report. their claims were, bluntly, preposterous. "Joe followed the rules". "Joe had no first hand knowledge so he couldn't really file a report". 20 minutes of manure spreading.

Just more of the "Joe can do no wrong" cult... Archae Feb 2013 #1
Super ditto. SoapBox Feb 2013 #9

Kindly tell us what is speculative and poorly reasoned in Freeh's report, with cites. nt msanthrope Feb 2013 #20
I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for an answer... Blue_Tires Feb 2013 #25
You should read the Actual report, it addresses your objections happyslug Feb 2013 #32

The Actual Report, if you want to read it, rather then read opinions on it. happyslug Feb 2013 #27
Again...this isn't what was asked for. Cite the Freeh report and tell us what was wrong msanthrope Feb 2013 #36
