Journalist on Yardbird.com has been the only reporter that has followed and demanded answers in the mysterious death of AUSA Jonathan Luna...
-- More than five years after his violent death, a federal grand jury is at last investigating the murder of Assistant U.S. Attorney Jonathan Luna, according to a letter from the Lancaster County PA district attorney's office.
Responding to a Right to Know Law Request filed by Yardbird Books in April, Lancaster County Assistant District Attorney Susan E. Moyer wrote that our request for information was denied, in part, due to an "open ongoing federal criminal investigation in which the leads are continuously being developed and additionally that the Luna case is part of an open federal grand jury investigation."
On April 22, 2009, Yardbird Books invoked Pennsylvania's new Right to Know Law to request public autopsy and forensic reports of Luna's murder. The unexpected and surprising response contains both good and bad news.
"First, please be advised that the investigation into the death of Jonathan Luna is a joint investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation-Baltimore Office and the Pennsylvania State Police," ADA Moyer writes. "The Federal Bureau of Investigation is the primary investigating agency. The Lancaster County District Attorney's Office has been apprised regarding the investigation by the primary investigating agency only because Lancaster County is the jurisdiction where the death occurred. The Luna death remains an open investigation.
"Your (Right to Know Law) request is denied based on several reasons as detailed herein. First, regarding the autopsy report, the request is denied under the RTK (Right to Know) law and the law enforcement privilege in that this is an open and ongoing criminal investigation. Specifically, conversations with the Chief of the Violent Crimes Unit/Supervisor of the Luna investigation for the United States Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania have revealed that the Luna investigation is an open and ongoing federal criminal investigation in which the leads are continuously being developed and additionally that the Luna case is part of an open federal grand jury investigation afforded secrecy under federal grand jury proceedings. Furthermore, releasing the autopsy report, considering the highly confidential facts within that report, would definitively and negatively impact the Luna investigation currently and into the future.
"Moreover, because the Luna case is an open federal grand jury case, the records and materials of the case are afforded protection of the secrecy of the federal grand jury process which should preclude release under Pennsylvania's RTK law."
The Chief of the Violent Crimes Unit in the Philadelphia U.S. Attorney's Office, mentioned in the letter, is Assistant U.S. Attorney David Webb.
Reached for comment, AUSA Webb responded that, by law, "I can't comment even about the existence of a grand jury." He did express understanding and concern for Luna's plight. "I'm an assistant U.S. Attorney too," Webb said.
Few had any interest in this case but it involves some big Rich names and even Govenment Officials including those in the White House. Yes many cases were brought to cover up the corruption our Law Makers and Govenment were doing. Few realize Jean Palfrey was only used to cover up Cunningham/Abramoff/Dick Cheney/McCain and many many others. Mr. Luna just wouldn't stop his investigation and fell on the truth of the connections. The DOJ might be in a pickel when they learn this involved former Republican President, Senators, Congressmen and House Reps, even those setting now in office. Notice how many Law Makers are resigning/retiring in large numbers. The only question is will the DOJ really charge Law Makers with this assassination or will they do what the UK did with Dr. Kelly's assassination. Yes finally the UK learned of Cheney's Assassination Squad and how Dr. Kelly was murdered but the files will be closed until all involved are dead and that includes Tony Blair's involvement.
ReplyDeleteAmericans couldn't handle the truth that the 9/11 was really planned in 1998 by the Saudi's and Bush/Cheney group. It just wasn't suppose to be as bad as it was but was used to illegal invade Iraq for oil.
