Thread Name: Lyr Add: Leonard Peltier (Luka Bloom)
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Leonard Peltier (Luka Bloom)
Peltier was fairly tried and convicted for the execution-style murders of FBI Agents Jack Coler and Ron Williams. The men were shot in the face at point-blank range. Every review judge since his 1977 conviction agrees.

Peltier bragged, " The motherfu—er was begging for his life but I shot him anyway."---about his execution-murder of the critically-wounded FBI Agent Ron Williams. He bragged about this several time officers of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
He is a merciless, cold blooded the murderer.
The murderer placed the barrel of his gun against Williams' hand and fired. The bullet ripped through Williams' hand, into his face, and carried away the back of his head. He was killed instantly. The murderer shot Coler, who was unconscious, across the top of the head. The bullet carried away a part of his forehead at the hairline. The shot was not fatal, however. The murderer then lowered his rifle a few inches and shot Coler through the jaw. The shell exploded inside his head, killing him instantly.   
According to the doctor who performed the autopsies, the agents were shot with a high velocity, small caliber weapon. Peltier's AR-15, the civilian counterpart of the M-16, was the highest velocity weapon fired that day. Ammunition components linked ballistically to the same AR-15 were found at the crime scene.

On November 14, 1975, Oregon State Police stopped two vehicles near Ontario, Oregon: a motor home and a Plymouth station wagon. Peltier was one of the occupants of the motor home, and fled the scene, turning to fire at the state trooper. Upon searching both vehicles, Oregon authorities recovered from the motor home Special Agent Coler's revolver in a paper bag bearing Peltier's thumbprint, and from the station wagon several shell casings that had been fired from Coler's revolver.

In that van were found nine hand grenades and fourteen firearms, eight of which had obliterated serial numbers, and numerous boxes of shells.



Peltier tried a prison break in July 1979 that resulted in more death.
Even the Supreme Court has reviewed his case twice and found him guilty as charged.
Mainstream Native America could care less about Leonard Peltier.


The transcripts of his trial are public record.
The Congressional Record of November 03, 1999 (p 22827) gives chilling details.
This is not an innocent.
