Prien,

A few days ago I tried to give you a practical demonstration of how easy it was to present information out of context in an extremely subtle way to cause an intelligent person (you) to leap over significant facts to reach false conclusions. I did it with the example of typos that gave clues to your writing habits and frame of mind, clues that nobody else could get in an edited text. The point was you could manipulate people with anything that seems AT FIRST to be significant but really isn’t, to hide something else. That’s what I said Fuhrman did to accomplish some of the most important things that you thought were impossible for a man in his position. You took the demonstration out of context, called it a “silly exercise” and went full steam ahead from there. You got ALL of it wrong.

For a cleaner record of the relevant text from my last post (and so that you won’t accuse me of putting in the typos on purpose, which I never do), here is my corrected version…

You can use selected portions of the transcripts to “prove” anything you want. The only way to get the truth is to put everything in context. That’s what make’s Rossi’s testimony significant. It puts Phillips’ testimony in context by establishing a coroner notification routine in violation of the law that the LAPD practiced for years before the murders. If Fuhrman was the killer and the man responsible for the frame-up, how does his testimony prove anything? It doesn’t unless there is independent verification that he consistently told the truth or that he consistently lied at all the key places that a frame-up artist had to lie to protect himself. The evidence is clear that Fuhrman consistently lied in ALL of those key places. Illusionists call it “misdirection.”

During the preliminary hearing Fuhrman misdirected the defense my testifying that Phillips was his partner, thereby creating the illusion that Phillips was the senior investigator. Fuhrman’s partner was BRAD ROBERTS. Phillips had the title of Detective III, which would have qualified him to sign in as an investigator (although I haven’t seen a copy of the sign in sheet – have you?). His responsibly was that of a supervisor and facilitator. Fuhrman was his investigator. To facilitate Fuhrman’s investigation, there was no reason that he couldn’t have made the call, but it was Fuhrman’s responsibility.

Fuhrman didn’t have to talk his boss out of calling the coroner because LAPD homicide investigators NEVER called the coroner until after their investigation was complete. By the time Spangler gave his order to Phillips not to make the call West LA was off the case. The only way Phillips or Fuhrman could have made the call then was if a superior officer ordered it. That had NEVER happened before. Thus, when Phillips volunteered to do it he knew that he would be ordered not to. That was the smokescreen. –Jasper
