Subject: * The Cameramans Real Real Name

To anyone who is interested:
 
The cameramans name is "Jack Barrett".  Ray Santilli accidently used
his real name in an early post he meant to send private but was actually
public.  Fortunately (?) he misstyped it as "Barnett".  Appalled, upon
seeing his mistake, he used that name as the "pseudonym" for the entire
time.
 
Jack Barrett lives in Florida, is 82 years old, and that is all of the
information I have.
 
Stanton Friedman called Brixner today and chatted with him.  Brixner
confirmed that by no means was he the only cameraman at Trinity, and
there certainly may have been many military cameramen there he did not
even know about.
 
Ray Santilli's wife just had a baby prematurely.  He has been told that
the baby probably will not survive.  He is obviously in great emotional
turmoil at this time.
 
Ray regrets with complete and utter and total regret ever getting into
this entire UFO mess.
 
Ray's financial backer, a Volker Spielberg, is the only one making any
money in this affair.  Yes, Ray may have made a little money, but not
much over expenses, if any!  Volker Spielberg is in possesion of the
missing first autopsy and good quality tent footage.
 
He is keeping it for his own personal reasons and has no real interest
in releasing it to the world.
 
Ray has no control over this, and is devestated, again, that his entire
initial promise to ship all of the footage with all of the videos has
been compromised.
 
It is my opinion that there should be a complete and total moratorium on
Ray Santilli bashing while he goes through this difficult time.
 
We have fought long and hard for people involved in the UFO phenomenon,
experiencers and researchers alike, from being demonized and attacked.
 
Put yourself in his shoes for a moment.
 
It's not very pretty or pleasant.
 
There are much easier ways to make a living in this world then peddling
this bizarre film.  Ray led a happy life as a video producer for a long
time.  Naively he thought promoting this video would be no different, in
any big way, than any other he had done before.  To his great shock and
horror, and as a reflection upon his incredible naivte, we have seen the
results of how such innocent beginnings can snowball into an affair
which promises only ridicule, accusation, hate, and endless attacks
destroying anyone, and anything, in it's path.
 
Wherever you are looking for a "bad guy" in any of this sordid affair,
that "bad guy" is *not* (in my opinion) Ray Santilli.  Volker Spielberg,
the US military, or the members of the intelligence community that
schemed this affair up.  Who knows.
 
This is just my opinion of course.  You have every right to feel and act
differently.  While objectivity is one thing, demonizing a human being,
especially someone I happen to like, is something I don't want to
participate in.
 
The opinions expressed in this message are exactly that, *MY* opinions.
I have no authorization of any kind, nor have I received any direct
information from anyone to post this message.  (Certain observations,
and assumptions posted in this message reflect some conclusions I have
been able to draw sifting through literally tens of thousands of
messages on this issue over the last six months.)
 
This message is based on my feelings, my observations, and no one elses.
 
In that vein, I would like to make an open appeal.
 
* TO ANYONE WHO HAS A COPY OF THE FIRST AUTOPSY VIDEO AND THE FULL TENT
  FOOTAGE !!! *
 
This film, if real, belongs to all of humanity.  It is of such extreme
importance it should not be held in secret.  It should not have been
held in secret by the US military for the last 48 years, and it shouldn't
be held secret now.
 
While I'm not an attorney, and I strongly recommend you seek your own
legal advice, I cannot fathom how anyone can claim "ownership" to this
film.  If the film is "not real" then it is therefore a complex fraud,
and those who created it are actively participating in scandalous
illegal activities and have no legitimate claim to it as well.
 
It's simple:
 
* If the film is real, it belongs to all of humanity, and anyone who has
  a copy of it, and has not released it to the public is, *NOW*
  (immediately : as of this exact moment) culpable in the ongoing UFO
  cover-up, lies, and conspiracy instituted by the US military 48 years
  ago.
 
* If the film is a fraud the only way to expose that fraud, and those
  responsible for it, is to, once again, release the entire film to
  the public.
 
IF YOU HAVE A COPY OF THE VIDEO I WOULD STRONGLY URGE YOU TO SEND UNMARKED
ANONYMOUS COPIES TO A NUMBER OF MEDIA ORGANIZATIONS IMMEDIATELY!
 
I hope this film, and the entire story, is revealed without any more of
this endless games playing we have seen for far too long.  I will not
participate in the demonizing of Ray Santilli, and I urge all responsible,
interested persons, to co-operate in revealing whatever ultimate truth
lies behind this sordid affair.
