#56. RBG- thats my understanding. So maybe its wrong to use it as a source? So why would it be edited, and by whom?

Welcome to the club of reality. Wiki can be edited by ANYONE. Any idiot can go in and change Wiki articles. There was a news article months ago about how Wiki told the public that government agencies were changing articles, as well as corporations.

Yet, people run around acting like Wiki is an encyclopedia or something… it’s a website that shows you what everyone ‘thinks’ about these subjects- and are completely bias depending on who edits it last..

I thought Wikipedia kept (and allowed access?) to every version.

#52. Rich- I went back to Wikipedia last night to reread the information that I had originally linked to referencing Alex Jones taped interview (thanks JVP,)on her suicidal intentions, and was a little surprised to find 1/3 to 1/2 of the whole entry on Palfrey missing, and not just the Jones info, I wish that I had copied that article, but it seems to be in the ether now. Interesting that.

This links to “Wired Science” blog where the question asked is “How would you Murder someone and fake a suicide”. Most of the discussion of course is off point, but shows a different bent than here on DU.

Has anyone attempted to find the data deleted from her Wikipedia article and restore it?

I can’t say I’m surprised. She’s dead because had a lot of information that could hurt a lot of very powerful people.

#49 According to studies Women are less likely to use violent methods of suicide than men. Generally they prefer poisoning. When they do use violent methods they tend to prefer methods that leave their identifying physical features intact, such as hanging, wrist cutting, and electrocution. More rarely, a woman will use a method like a simple gunshot to the head. It is believed that women who commit suicide behave this way because they can not stand to destroy their self image.

Interestingly this suicide behavior is not common to all women, just those in “Western” or strongly “Western Influenced” cultures. In other cultures violent suicide in women is often as common or more so than it is for men.

When women commit suicide, they very seldom hang themselves. That, in itself, is suspicious.

I drove by the scene yesterday on my way home. There were five police agencies involved. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many TV trucks.

If only there had been some conceivable way for a person to leave a full disclosure of names and details with someone instead of protecting those the madam knew would kill her.

And yet O.J. Simpson is playing golf somewhere because that dumbass knew how to hide his assets. I find it hard to believe she didn’t do the same.

Very coincidental timing. John, you should have added a graphic over her head that reads “Mission Accomplished”. Our entire military machine still hasn’t killed Bin Laden, but obviously some black bag outfit had no problem offing the DC Madam. A few years back there was a huge flap about a missing girl, suspected as death, that some Democratic congressmen had dated or just met. And his career was ruined without any proof of wrongdoing on his part. Now here we have the dead body of a infamous DC madam who could, and probably would, name names if faced with jail time. And she dies quite conveniently to all who might be on her client list. And you can easily believe that nothing will be made of this. Especially if some high ranking republicans are involved. Let’s face it. Billions of tax payer dollar are at stake here. Dollars that might not go to the defence contractors that some career threatened politicians had been lobbyed for. So our entire defence based economy was at stake. Does anyone really believe she’d be allowed to screw all that up?

“I’m looking at 55 years in a federal penitentiary, and at my age, that is virtually a life sentence

How fucked up is this country when someone providing a normal human need, for money, would get 55 years when shithead street thugs who rob and steal and will never be a productive member of society get less.
