O'REILLY AND DUGARD HAVE DONE IT AGAIN

Last night, at midnight, I finished reading Killing Patton. The book is well-named for it has to be accurate. When a controversial person, and especially one who is also well-hated by some, is killed in a car crash and all the paper work about the case disappears, it has to be murder. Add to that crime, no real investigation was conducted and no one was brought to justice.  

The so-called drunken driver of the offending vehicle, could have had the smell of alcohol on him and still not have been drunk. [No tests of this were made.] He seemed to know what he was doing when he swerved into the lane of Patton's limousine. Add to that, that while many heads of state and other dignitaries attended Patton's funeral in Europe, General Dwight Eisenhower and President Truman did not!

Patton had a foul mouth but he was a real warrior, a real fighter. He dared disobey orders from his superiors but he seemed to be generally right in his decisions. 

Perhaps O'Reilly and Dugard have opened a can of worms and maybe there will yet be a real investigation into Patton's death. But of course, most of the interested parties of this puzzle and surely the ones guilty of this crime are now dead. But closure for the family may be an important goal for investigation. 

So, we have Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, and now Killing Patton, all excellently written. Will Osama bin Laden be next?
