Questons over Butler-Sloss' integrity

High court to rule on Diana inquest

Mar 2 2007

http://icberkshire.icnetwork.co.uk/tm_headline=high-court-to-rule-on-d iana-inquest&method=full&objectid=18696113&siteid=106484-name_page.htm l

The High Court is due to rule on whether coroner Baroness Butler-Sloss acted unlawfully when she decided to preside over the inquests into the deaths of Dodi Fayed and Diana, Princess of Wales, without a jury.

Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed is applying for High Court orders to prevent Lady Butler-Sloss conducting the inquests alone in her role as the deputy coroner of the Queen's Household, or alternatively as assistant deputy coroner for Surrey.

He is backed in his legal action by the Ritz Hotel Ltd and the parents of Henri Paul, the chauffeur who also died.

The Princess, 36, and Mr Al Fayed, 42, were killed when their Mercedes crashed in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in Paris in 1997.

Mr Al Fayed says he is "certain" Diana and Dodi were murdered.

During a recent two-day hearing, lawyers for Mr Al Fayed and the other applicants expressed concern over whether an inquest conducted by Lady Butler-Sloss, sitting on her own as deputy royal coroner, might be suspected of "lacking independence".

They referred to the fact that the hearing must be seen around the world to be fair - particularly as the Duke of Edinburgh was being accused by Mr Al Fayed, of "masterminding" the deaths.

The ruling is being given at London's High Court by Lady Justice Smith, sitting with Mr Justice Collins and Mr Justice Silber.

Diana told Christine Fitzgerald in 1989 that they were going to kill her: “It sounded outlandish
at the time”, Christine said, “because she had the boys and they were little and I thought, no,
they need her to bring the boys up.” But there were to be many indications that Diana was
indeed in danger from the Windsors and the Brotherhood in general. In the late 1980s with her
marriage nothing more than a public show, Diana was having a relationship with her personal
detective, Barry Mannakee, but he died in a motorcycle ‘accident’ in 1988. By 1990, with the
Gulf War threatening, Diana was having a relationship with Captain James Hewitt.
One day, about this time, she went rushing into Christine’s healing centre in London in a
terrible state. Christine remembers: She was crying hysterically and I said ‘What’s the matter?’
You know it was dog’s died stuff, bottom lip out, full sob. She came galloping through the
door. I gave her rescue remedy, clutched her, hugged her, calmed her down, and said now tell
me what’s going on. ‘I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it, they killed him, they killed him’ she
sobbed. I said: ‘Who did they kill?’ She told me about her affair with the detective (Barry
Mannakee) and how he was decapitated on a motorbike and how she thought it was a terrible
accident. But now she knows the Royal Family killed him because Prince Charles’ senior
detective had just told her that if she didn’t cool it with Hewitt, the same would happen to him.
He told her she should not think that she was indispensable, either.”
Officially, Barry Mannakee died in a ‘road crash’. How dangerous the roads seem to be if the
royals don’t like you. Christine said that Diana was very much in love with Mannakee and she
had visited his grave regularly. Diana had, apparently, been unaware of his death at the time
until she was being driven with Prince Charles to the airport to fly to the Cannes Film Festival.
He waited until she was about to get out of the car in front of waiting photographers and he
said: “Oh, by the way, I got word from the Protection Unit yesterday that poor Barry
Mannakee was killed. Some sort of motorcycle accident. Terrible shame, isn’t it?” Diana burst
into tears, but Charles said sarcastically: “Let’s go darling, your press awaits you.”
I would emphasise again that the confirmation that Mannakee was murdered, and the personal
threat to Diana, came from Prince Charles’ senior detective, according to the Princess. Would
he be making statements and threats to her like that without the approval of Prince Charles?
Of course not. In 1998 in the Independent Television documentary, Diana – Secrets Of The
Crash, James Hewitt said that he too had been warned to stop seeing Diana or the
consequences would not be pleasant. He said:
“The telephone calls were anonymous, but left me in no doubt that they knew what the
situation was. They were threatening. They said it was not conducive to my health to continue
the relationship.”
He said that other warnings came from Diana’s personal police protection officers, the Royal
Household, and a member of the Royal Family, whom he would not name: “The (member of
the Royal Family) said your relationship is known about. It is not supported, we cannot be
responsible for your safety and security, and suggest that you curtail it forthwith.”
James Hewitt was further quoted in the London Times about these threats and his comments
supported completely the story Diana had told Christine Fitzgerald. Hewitt said that his
clearest warning came when he was told that he would suffer the same fate as Barry
Mannakee.

The coroner's language betrays her preconceptions - fascinating...
just look at this from Time Magazine
http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1595973,00.html

"...Butler-Sloss said Al Fayed had not provided "a shred of evidence" to support his conspiracy theory. "There are a large number of serious allegations being made," she said. "If there is no evidence to support them, I shall not present them to the jury because it would be my duty not to do so." But Al Fayed's lawyer, Michael Mansfield, said the millionaire had already given his evidence to the official British police investigation, which last year concluded the crash that killed Diana, Dodi and their driver in 1997 was an accident. When Butler-Sloss (who is hearing the inquest as assistant deputy coroner for inner west London after the High Court ruled she couldn't sit as deputy royal coroner) was told she already had the evidence she was asking for, she replied, "Ah."...."

Oh what a surprise.

All of the incriminating letters have now gone missing whilst in the custody of the police.

You would be justifiably ridiculed, if you were making this up.

on the day that diana died my sister woke my mum to tell her and my mum's automatic reaction was "they've killed her!" My mum is a very rational sensible woman, but everyone (weather they trust it or not) has that gut feeling in their stomach that theres something not right about the whole thing. I trust my mum and i trust my gut, and i think they (dare i say it?.. the royals) killed her. it doesnt take a genius to see why, she was a threat to the structure, the web... anyways, i hope a real meaningful trial happens but my guts recon it wont and theyve been right before, alot!

[conspiracy analyst]

on this issue that there are bigger games being played.

Wanting to implement the NWO by fiat, the British Royal family has to go, so does the House of Lords.

Creating a European superstate does not require royalties or ancient relics from a previous era.

The royalist press which is the majority are now promoting Fayeds views softening up the public to make them accept its... an inside job.

The question at stake is that Fayed may be in on the act. Someone will reply how could he agree to the killing of his son.

Who is Fayed? Is the answer.

That it is an inside job is beyond doubt. The question is who was privy to the information.

Charles definitely and Fayed in my opinion.

[ZUCO]

That makes a bit more sense. Thanks for the explanation

Al Fayed certainly seems to be a dodgy character at best, but now I think he deserves some credit for all the money he has put into his legal case, without which Lady butler Sloss would be whitewashing the "inquiry".

[TonyGosling]

Along with 9/11 this is, I believe, one of the most spun and suppressed stories in the British mainstream press. Whilst I don't agrtee with all of this by any means there's lots of interesting bits and pieces here...

[Pincher]

We can but speculate about the precise motive for the murder of Diana. What we can be reasonably sure of is that more than one attempt was made on Diana's life (possibly as many as four from '92 onwards) and that more than one national intelligence agency had an interest in removing her.

The idea though that Mo Fayed was involved both in her and his own son's assassination is utterly prepesterous. This absurd theory, suitable only for consumption by the most naive and most moronic, is almost certainly a product of the DST misinformation machine. It ranks with the CIA's 'Fidel Castro killed JFK and the '9/11 No Planes' nonsense.

Remember it was the DST who effectively blackmailed Fayed when rumours of a conspiracy began to circulate in '98. They said he was trying to divert attention away from the fact that he was criminally responsible for the 'accident' because Henri Paul, an employee of Fayed's was drunk and because the Mercedes he drove was defective.

If it wasn't for Fayed's money (conservative estimates of his legal and publicity fees to date are in the order of £10 million) tireless campaigning and investigating the vast majority of people would accept that Diana's death was the result of a tragic accident (whatever Tomlinson and Burrell might say to the contrary).

And that goes for most on here - particularly those who suggest Fayed's involvement.

[who murdered di ?]

May the Fourth be with you all, hehe.

Meaning, "May the force be with you". As was said in Star Wars against the Dark Forces.

[karlos]

the Jesuits as seen in the Da Vinci Code murdered Diana to protect the western status quo. M15 and the CIA were involved too.

Diana "My title as Lady is a lot older than yours Duke"

...the Princess is said to have responded by informing the Duke that her title as Lady, referring to the lineage of the Spencer family, was a lot older than his.....

This is the sort of hard fact that the British Royal family don't want to hear. Akin to this analysis that places Charles as the AntiChrist

THE PEOPLES' PRINCESS WAS RIGHT
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saxe-Coburg_and_Gotha
Names of the British Royal House
Ernst I's younger son, Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, became Prince Consort to Queen Victoria, Ernst's niece through his sister Viktoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. As a consequence of their marriage, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha became the Royal House name of the British Royal Family from the accession of Edward VII in 1901 until changed to Windsor by King George V in 1917 because a German name was deemed unpatriotic during World War I.
Contrary to common belief, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was not the personal surname of either Prince Albert, his wife or their descendants. Neither Albert nor Victoria, in fact, knew their actual surname (royalty had no need of and never used such common labels) until in the late 19th century Queen Victoria launched an inquiry to identify her surname. After an exhaustive search her advisors concluded that Prince Albert (and thus the Queen — by virtue of her marriage) had the surname Wettin.
George V changed both Wettin and Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor in 1917. However, an Order-in-Council in 1960 again separated the Royal House name and the personal family surname of the monarch and her family. It decreed that while the Royal House name would remain Windsor, the descendants of Queen Elizabeth II and of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh would use the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. However, Prince Philip belongs to the house of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, and, technically, so will his descendants in the male line.

The reopening of the inquest follows comments by princes William and Harry that they will never stop wondering about the details of their mother's death.

New Diana Coroner Reopens Inquest
http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-1270347,00.html
Updated: 16:04, Wednesday June 13, 2007

The fourth person to take charge of the inquest into the death of Princess Diana has reopened the hearing with a warning over costs and the promise of a swift investigation.
Lord Justice Scott Baker has replaced Baroness Butler-Sloss, who quit over a lack of experience.
In a brief opening statement to the High Court in London, the senior judge said "tight discipline" was needed to ensure unnecessary witnesses were not called.
He said it was the duty of all parties to keep the cost of the inquest in "reasonable bounds".
Lord Justice Baker added that he was determined to see the inquests concluded "expeditiously".
"I hope it goes without saying that these inquests will be open, fair and transparent and that all relevant evidence that can be obtained will be put before the jury," he said.
Mohamed al Fayed, whose son Dodi was killed alongside the Princess in the 1997 crash in Paris, was at the sitting.
The coroner added: "Here, we are concerned with an investigation, the cost of which ... falls on the taxpayer.
"The longer the inquests last, the greater those costs will be. It is the duty of all of us to keep them within reasonable bounds."
At the last hearing in May in front of Lady Butler-Sloss, lawyers for Mr al Fayed launched a bid to involve the Queen in the inquests. The Harrods owner also wants Prince Charles and Prince Philip to be questioned in court.
The reopening of the inquest follows comments by princes William and Harry that they will never stop wondering about the details of their mother's death.
