Conspiracy of Silence
The other day I downloaded a fascinating documentary called The Conspiracy of Silence that was supposed to air on the Discovery channel on May 3rd, 1994. The documentary is inspired by the book The Franklin Coverup by John DeCamp. Due to political pressure the rights to the film were purchased and all copies were destroyed. Except one.
The lead investigator for the Franklin coverup died in a suspicious plane crash. There were also a handful of suicides and other deaths as well. Yeah, I know it sounds like Prison Break!
There is a particulary ironic scene with former CIA director William Colby. It's ironic because he mysteriously died two years later.
This documentary is especially relevant in the wake of the Mark Foley scandal and how it relates to the Whitehouse and the Republican party.

The fun doesn't stop there. Some people believe that the late Hunter Thompson may be implicated as well.
