Official Misconduct! Kerry Abused His Senate Position to Broker Sweatheart Deal for Forbes Cousin
Reports indicate that Democratic nominee, Senator John Kerry, committed official misconduct in 1994, abusing his position as Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA by suppressing evidence of live prisoners of war in Vietnam to give his cousin's company a billion dollar deal.
As Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA in the early 1990s, Senator Kerry lobbied zealously for normalized relations with Vietnam. As a result, his cousin, C. Stewart Forbes, was able to broker a billion dollar deal between Hanoi and Colliers International, a large company based in Kerry's home state of Massachusetts.
Further, according to the Toronto Sun, , Baltimore Sun, Washington Times, et al, in a multitude of articles in February of 1994, there is credible evidence that his committee suppressed evidence – including live sightings – that there were still indeed American prisoners in Vietnam.
If introduced, this evidence may have prevented the normalized relations Kerry sought – normalized relations that were paramount to sealing the Colliers deal.
Some investigators have charged that Kerry actually threatened that, if the suppressed evidence ever leaked out, that they would “wish [they’d] never been born.”
