Former NBC producer Daniel Hopsicker has been conducting an investigation of the time spent in Florida by the alleged 9/11 hijackers, including alleged 'ringleader' Mohammed Atta. Here's the very latest from his Mad Cow Morning News: [Mohammed Atta's former paramour, stripper Amanda] Keller told us she had been so intimidated into silence by the FBI that she spoke barely a dozen words. “The newspaper quote you read was accurate,” she said. “‘I can’t really say anything. I’m afraid I’ll get in trouble.’" . . .
"And so I called the FBI agent that had been calling me—right while this reporter guy was standing there—and told him this reporter won’t leave me alone. The agent said let me talk to him, so I handed him the phone. And I don’t know what was said, but after that he left me alone.”
Why had she remained silent? "Because of the intimidation by the FBI,” she replied . . .
Some got in trouble just for having lived next-door, like Stephanie Frederickson, a pleasant 50-year old housewife . . . "They just stopped by once a week to make sure I hadn’t been talking to anyone," Frederickson shrugged. "Who was I going to tell? Everybody around here already knew.
The Sandpiper Apartments manager, Charlie Grapentine, is a grizzled Korean vet in his early 60’s [said] "he reached in and peeled off a few hundreds from a thick roll of cash he had stuffed inside the fanny pack."
Grapentine turns grim on the subject of the FBI's treatment. "They called me a liar, and told me to keep my mouth shut," stated the ex-marine. . . .
Longboat Key fire captain Carroll Mooneyhan was waiting in the lobby of the hotel President Bush was staying at the night before the attack, for Bush to come out for his morning run when he saw something he shouldn’t have. Something pretty big, actually…
After talking with local reporters he clammed up. When we finally reached him by phone, Mooneyhan, who witnessed the launch of an attempt to assassinate the President, told us: “I was visited by the CIA and the Secret Service after 9/11. I have a career to think about. I have to be careful what I say.”
And that was the last we heard from him. Daniel Hopsicker has a new book coming out on this research. .....---
