New Evidence Surfaces In Navy Yard Shooting

Although the 12 victims of the Navy Yard
massacre, which took place on September 16 in Washington, D.C., have
been laid to rest, the investigation into what really happened lives on,
as two late-breaking developments fuel further suspicions about a
government cover-up and provide new insights into the tormented mind of
shooter Aaron Alexis.
It has now been “officially” confirmed that a heavily-armed United States Capitol Police (USCP) tactical unit was told to “stand down” rather than being allowed to intervene in the mass shooting.
On November 8, a panel of USCP Board
investigators—known as the Fact Review Team—acknowledged that four
highly-trained members of the USCP’s Containment and Emergency Response
Team (CERT) took it upon themselves to gear up and respond to the site
of the killings after hearing reports of an active shooter at the scene.
However, contrary to earlier accounts, the investigators claim that traffic conditions prevented the CERT officers from reaching their destination and were then “instructed not to enter the Navy Yard” while still en route. The investigators concluded that the decision to withdraw the team was “reasonable” due in part to “uncertainty about threats to the U.S. Capitol and absent a request for additional USCP assets.”
Outraged at the Fact Review Team’s
findings, the union representing the USCP officers has called for a
congressional inquiry “in an effort to determine the truth” about what
really happened that day. According to a recent BBC News report, the U.S. Capitol Police Labor Committee (CPLC)
has dismissed the USCP’s internal inquiry as “flawed, biased and
designed to protect the department from further scrutiny and possible
litigation from the victims’ families.”
One of the major discrepancies in the Fact
Review Team’s report is the claim that “traffic gridlock” prevented
CERT from reaching the site of the killings. This completely contradicts
the official timeline of events, which places CERT at the scene a full
14 minutes before any other tactical unit arrived. As BBC pointed out: “An officer with the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD),
Washington D.C.’s main municipal force, told the Capitol CERT officers
they were the only police on the site equipped with long guns and
requested their help stopping the gunman.”
In the BBC article, CPLC Chairman Jim
Konczos said that the CERT officers had “no reason to lie” about the
events surrounding the mass shooting and were “disgusted” with their
department’s handling of the matter.
This development certainly lends credence
to those who have long suspected the Navy Yard shooting to be an
orchestrated event. If the goal of the conspirators was to allow Alexis
enough time to inflict mass casualties before sending in their own team
to eliminate him, the unforeseen arrival of CERT would be viewed as a
predicament that could only be rectified by issuing a stand-down order.
As mentioned, the CERT officers were not dispatched to the scene but
instead deployed on their own initiative. In other words, they weren’t
part of the plan.

Emails Provide Clues to Navy Yard Shooter’s Motivation
In a previous article
for AFP, this reporter explained how Alexis fits the profile of a
mind-control subject who may have been manipulated into participating in
a scripted psychological operation. One who supports this hypothesis is
Derrick Robinson, the president of Freedom From Covert Harassment and
Surveillance (FFCHS), a group that networks with victims of organized stalking and remote electronic assaults.
“The symptoms that Alexis complained
about are very common in our community,” Robinson told AFP. “The sleep
deprivation, the voices in the head and the physical toll the attacks
were taking on his body are all indicative of electromagnetic attacks.”
Robinson recently provided AFP with a
series of emails FFCHS received from Alexis two weeks prior to the Navy
Yard incident. In them, Alexis asks for assistance in dealing with
“direct energy attacks” and says he believes he knows the “specific
group in the military responsible for developing” the weapons.
“The ELF [extremely low frequency]
weapons are part of the weapons systems of most of the modern vessels
fielded by the Navy,” He wrote in one email. “I want to become part of
this effort mostly for self-preservation. The voices they’ve induced
into my head are tiresome. However if I can figure out how to keep them
from disturbing my sleep cycles I would be most interested to find out.”
“I wrote back to Alexis and offered to
put him in touch with one of our support groups in the D.C. area.”
Robinson told AFP. “I also asked if he had access to the technologies
being used against him.”
In his final email, Alexis wrote: “I
don’t have direct access to the equipment, how ever [sic] I do have
knowledge ofwhere some of the attacks might be coming from. I don’t want
to call you from my phone, they record everything I’ve been saying. And
because I’m under the employ of the DoD I don’t want to risk getting
you or my self [sic] in trouble.”
In this age of NSA spying, it’s hard to
imagine that a ticking time bomb like Alexis would have gone unnoticed.
However, it was only after the massacre that federal authorities showed
any interest in Alexis’ email exchanges.
On October 9, FFCHS Executive Board
Member Max H. Williams received a visit from the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) at his home in Louisiana.
“[The FBI agent] explained that because
of the notoriety of the Aaron incident, the FBI was checking out every
possible angle of the shooting,” Williams wrote in a journal entry
provided to AFP. “He asked me what I thought prompted Alexis to do the
shooting. I told him about the voices and how, after much time, some
targets could not handle them. I told him that I placed the blame for
the Alexis incident squarely on the U. S. Government. I added that the
Federal Government HAD to know about our targeting yet did nothing about
it!”
