Debunking Vince Foster Murder Conspiracy Peddlers

If you missed my introduction to what I refer to as this Vince Foster murder conspiracy racket (“VFMC Racket”) in the alternative media, please see Part I. You know the Vince Foster murder conspiracies are falling apart when…

These are individuals, grown men, who attack, troll, and defame anyone and everyone who does not peddle their discredited murder conspiracies as if it is real news. 

• • Apparent ring leader, a grown man who calls himself “DCDave,” aka David Martin of DCDave.com;
  • Internet talk radio host Michael Rivero of whatreallyhappened.com;
  • Some “fearless” faked name, “White Power” type of guy, “BMAN,” of BMAN’s Revolt because, evidently, it’s heroic in the alt-media to hide behind a fake name, being on the front lines of tyranny, and all, even though Americans are not living under tyranny;
  • and Hugh Turley of FBICoverup.com, who was banned from free republic for his belligerent ad hominin attacks. How frequently does the Free Republic ban individuals from their forum?
  • Update: White Power guy’s “BMAN’s revolt” website was removed

You can read the appalling, pitiful saga here on Michael Rivero’s website published on May 17, 2016.  It started when this DCDave/David Martin person wrote a fraudulent misrepresentation of me, others, and my book, Following Orders: The Death of Vince Foster, Clinton White House Lawyer, in a book review that was not a book review, but a hit piece.  It’s based on false statements, fraudulent misrepresentations, omissions, distortions, and ad hominem attacks lodged at me and others.

DCDave/David Martin likes to tag team people on the web with his VFMC Racket cohorts “BMAN” and Turley.

As tedious as this is it’s necessary to do a line-by-line breakdown of one of their published fabrications for legal purposes—this one (below) was written by Internet Talk Radio host Michael Rivero, a former Alex Jones Infowars “expert,” [YouTube link has been deleted] as he circled the murder conspiracy wagon with DCDave/David Martin. This way people can also see and decide for themselves who the hardcore liars are and who is telling the truth.

This matters because words matter and millions of people believe alt-media murder conspiracy “experts” on the worldwide Internet, as we’ve seen this election cycle, and elsewhere, where people have been acting on or spreading bad information.

Also see my Retraction, Apology demand to DCDave/David Martin (also at the link above) that addresses the beginning of Rivero’s post that DCDave/David Martin wrote and his fraudulent book review.

Despite this, the VFMC Racket continues to defame people, including Foster’s family, and spread deceitful information on the internet, as if they are above all laws. No one is, except perhaps, Hillary Clinton.

Time and time again, prosecutors have used their discretion not to indict her, despite having had evidence to indict, as I have reported in my Clinton books, The Whistleblower and the sequel Following Orders.  We just saw this happen again in Hillary Clinton’s classified email scandal where she got another pass that others would not have received.

As I wrote in Part 1, the VFMC Racket does not have to agree with me, like me, other authors, or my book, Following Orders—that’s free speech. I don’t have to like them or agree with them either.

They can also believe that Foster was murdered and any conspiracy they want–no matter how far-fetched, and wrong-headed they are (crisis actors, fake blood, etc., etc.). That’s not the issue here.

The issue here is this: they may not defame me, other individuals, including Foster’s family, or the entire FBI, and fraudulently misrepresent my book, and other people’s books, make false statements with actual malice, and omit facts, plug their injurious falsehoods—that’s unprotected speech. 1+1=2.

If you enjoy being lied to and freaked out over falsehoods when real problems exist and are actionable because an alt-media expert in the VFMC Racket told you that you were “awake,” please stop reading now. Otherwise, let’s go, and get this over with.

(2) This also applies to Rivero’s false claims that I would want to “bury” or “re-frame” the Foster case. Why would I or any writer want to do that? Rivero does not say this because his claims are false and nonsensical.

(3)  FALSE: It wasn’t Hillary Clinton’s campaign, that revived Foster’s tragic death. It was a reporter at the Washington Post who asked the presumptive Republican nominee for President, Donald Trump, about it, who did, but that does not stop Rivero from publishing easy-to-debunk falsehoods.

Here all three statements in Rivero’s first sentence are false and we have only just begun.

Rivero: Peschmann is attempting to reconcile the copious amounts of contradictory evidence in the Foster case with the theory that Foster’s body was moved, while preserving the claim that Foster killed himself, then was moved because his death occurred somewhere embarrassing, therefore, according to Peschmann, people should simply stop talking about Vince Foster, at least until after November!

(4)  FALSE:  Here Rivero fraudulently misrepresents facts and categorically lies. While it is true that there were legitimate questions regarding Foster’s death (for starters, see why in Following Orders: Chapter 3), copious amounts of contradictory evidence supporting murder do not exist. Rivero is referring to copious amounts of conspiracy theories, wild conjecture, misrepresentations, unverified assumptions, distortions, and DCDave/David Martin’s “predictions,” and “suggestions” that Foster was murdered (see below, etc.).

Rivero: “…therefore according to Peschmann, people should simply stop talking about Vince Foster, at least until after November!”

(5)  FALSE:  Rivero has manufactured another outright fabrication. I have never said that people should stop talking about Vince Foster at any time, let alone, until November. Don’t believe me? Ask Rivero for proof and you will see he has none because he is a liar.

(6) When Rivero uses the word “embarrassing” he does so to paint a false impression to mislead his audiences that is not a true representation of the content in Following Orders. Moreover, he diminishes the serious significance of gossip to pander to people who believe that Hillary Clinton is a lesbian who also was having an affair with Foster. You will find that sometimes the VFMC Racket has a hard time keeping their conspiracy theories straight. Indeed. It is tedious trying to keep up.

(That image is a Michael Rivero superhero action figure doll you can buy at his website because Rivero is on the front lines fighting tyranny or something, even though Americans are not living under tyranny.)

Rivero: Peschmann has now sent a demand for retraction and apology to DC Dave and to the websites that cross-posted his critique, claiming that pointing out the factual inaccuracies in the book qualifies as defamation… fraudulent misrepresentations, false statements, deliberate omissions to paint a false picture, defaming other individuals who have nothing to do with me, or my book, to plug VFMC Racket’s debunked claims… etc.

(7)  MISREPRESENTATIVE AT BEST:  The formula the alt-media conspiracy theorists use is not complicated. For starters, Rivero does not finish his sentence, tell the full story, or provide context for his readers for good reason—to deliberately misrepresent and distort my retraction, and apology notice to cast a false light. By using partial truths and facts that he twists into exaggerated claims he manipulates his listeners into supporting his false assertions.

Case in point. Fact: I have never claimed, despite what Rivero fabricated, that pointing out factual inaccuracies in a book qualifies as defamation because it does not. Moreover, weeks have soared by since I requested the retractions, and not one “truth teller” in this VFMC Racket has come up with a shred of proof to prove that any of their false statements (defamation) I have identified here, in Part I, including, but not limited to their false claim that I did not write my book, and I work for Hillary Clinton and other fabrications in my retraction notice. They have not provided proof, as none exists, or else they would have by now. That makes them guilty liars, yes?

Defamation is: Any intentional false communication, either written or spoken, that harms a person’s reputation; decreases the respect, regard, or confidence in which a person is held; or induces disparaging, hostile, or disagreeable opinions or feelings against a person. Defamation may be a criminal or civil charge. It encompasses both written statements, known as libel, and spoken statements, called slander.

Here is 18 U.S. Code § 1001

(8) TRUE:  I wanted DCDave/David Martin’s fabrications and misrepresentations retracted and removed from all the websites where they are published because these alt-media “experts,” act like cyber bullies, set up multiple websites with their pals to cross-post their fabrications and this incites audiences.

The VFMC Racket sets up multiple platforms so when they tell their “awake” audiences “to do their own research,” as they like to do, the original bad source appears in multiple places, thus giving a false impression of credibility. Also, their falsehoods and ad hominem attacks come up with me in google searches and who would want that?

The only good association with the VFMC Racket, if this is considered good, is showing what desperate, vicious liars they are.

(9) It speaks volumes that Rivero has downgraded DCDave/David Martin’s book review of Following Orders to a “critique.” This appears to be damage control deception and a watered-down acknowledgment that what DCDave wrote was not a book review because it was not as I correctly claimed.

Rivero: In fact, Peschmann ignores key facts that undermine the “Foster really did kill himself, just somewhere other than Fort Marcy Park” theory. It is documented that the gun found with the body in Fort Marcy Park did not in fact belong to Vince Foster. [(10) “In fact” the VFMC Racket needs to go back and read Rivero’s link to see why what he wrote is wrong—also see below].

Rivero: It is a documented fact that the FBI fraudulently manufactured the testimony of Lisa Foster to claim the dark-blued gun found with the body was the “silver colored” (The FBI’s description) was the nickle-plated revolver Foster inherited from his father.

(11) FALSE:  Typically when the VFMC Racket says something is “documented” it means it was falsely verified by themselves or one of their cohorts. From there, fabrications become echo-chambered false facts.

(12) In this instance, to prove Rivero is lying about Foster’s gun, please read journalist and author, Dan Moldea’s sourced reporting from his book, A Washington Tragedy: How the Death of Vincent Foster Ignited a Political Firestorm. Moldea has also had the unfortunate displeasure of having to deal with the VFMC Racket’s fabrications and long ago debunked this one. I did not address it in Following Orders because it was and is a non-issue–a discredited conspiracy theory.

In part from Moldea:

3. Rivero’s claim: Moldea never questioned why Robert Fiske, the ex-BCCI lawyer, used such obviously flawed and legally invalid testimony to claim that Vincent Foster owned the gun he was found with . . .

Moldea’s response: What does BCCI have to do with this case? The answer, of course, is nothing. Regarding Fiske and the mystery gun, I accurately reported on page 423, endnote 70:

The Fiske Report did not address the fact that the gun Mrs. Foster had identified was silver, not black–which was the color of the gun found in Foster’s right hand.

However, on page 218, I discussed the Fiske/FBI investigation of Foster’s ownership of the suicide weapon, saying: Regarding her husband’s possession of guns, Mrs. Foster said that he had received several from his late father’s estate. The FBI report states:

[Lisa Foster] is aware of a handwritten note from the elder Mr. Foster regarding the disposition of his property after he passed away. According to this note, all of the elder Mr. Foster’s guns were left to Foster and a diamond was left to Lisa Foster. After the funeral for [his] father, Foster went down to his father’s house and retrieved the guns. Lisa Foster believes that there were approximately three to five handguns included in the guns retrieved by her husband. She believes that her husband obtained all of the guns which were left by Foster’s father.

(13)  Moreover, there is only one person who could have confirmed the VFMC Racket’s claim that the FBI fraudulently manufactured Lisa Foster’s testimony and that person is Foster’s widow, Lisa Foster. Not anyone in the extreme right-wing alt-media. Mrs. Foster has not made that claim.

Also see Following Orders Chapter 8 for multi-sourced evidence that the FBI (far from perfect, as nobody is), also could not do their jobs properly or thoroughly either. This is another fact that the VFMC Racket needs you to ignore because they have defamed the entire FBI for years based on their fabrications.

(14).  Furthermore, this is far from the first time when the FBI, and or other agencies have had their hands tied, by top leadership, while trying to do their jobs. [i.e. Unlimited Access: An FBI Agent Inside the Clinton White House, by former FBI agent Gary Aldrich, and House Border Security Caucus: Obama Not Allowing Agents to Do Their Job, ‘Putting Every American at Risk.’

Rivero:  Perschmann [sic] claims that Foster’s blood had dried by the time Foster’s body was found, yet when the body was moved, fresh blood flowed out of the wounds, staining Foster’s shirt! There is a medical report of a wound to Foster’s neck, which was then whited over!

(15)  FALSE:  Rivero is a liar. It is disturbing how he consistently makes categorically false statements. I did not write that all of Foster’s blood had dried by the time Foster’s body was found. For starters, see Following Orders:  Prologue, first paragraph:

“While it might have initially appeared that the deputy counsel to the president of the United States was taking a nap in a park—lying neatly face-up on a steep embankment with his feet pointing down—Vincent W. Foster Jr. was not napping. He was dead. Dressed in expensive trousers and a white dress shirt, less than eight miles from the White House, he was lying dead. A single gunshot wound to the head. Dead. Some of the blood on Foster’s face was still wet, but starting to dry.”

Following Orders Chapter 4 (one example, there are more):

“[Rolla] had “observed that some of the blood on Foster’s face was still wet, but starting to dry. [Rolla] touched Foster’s body, and noted it was still relatively warm, and there was no sign of rigor mortis.” [98]”
