From MarthaMoxley. com (editting done for space) Sometime between 9:30 and 11 p.m. on October 30, 1975, Martha Moxley left the Skakel house. Home was only 150 yards away, but Martha never made it. Martha's body was found the next day under a tree in her back yard. She had been beaten so hard with a 6-iron that the shaft had shattered. A jagged piece of it was used to stab her through the neck. Police later learned that the club was part an expensive, Toney Penna, set which had belonged to Tommy and Michael Skakel's mother Anne. Mrs. Skakel had died of cancer two years earlier leaving her husband Rushton to raise their large and reportedly unruly family. Their son, Tommy, then 17, was said to be the last person seen with Martha. According to Martha's diary, she had fended off several past attempts by Skakel to "get to first and second base," said Martha's mother, Dorthy Moxley. The day Martha's battered body was found, Greenwich police did a cursory search of the house with Rushton Skakel's permission, but they never obtained a warrant to do a thorough search. This lack of a warrant in the investigation led to accusations of "special treatment" for the well-connected, influential family. The Skakels stopped cooperating with police in early 1976 and have since refused to be interviewed. For years nothing was mentioned about the case publicly. Residents of Greenwich didn't speak of the terrible crime which had gone unsolved. Meanwhile, in 1983, the Greenwich Time/Stamford Advocate hired a freelance writer named Len Levitt to write an article on the case. The article appeared to be "so controversial" at the time that the publishers shelved it until 1991 when a rumor started floating around Greenwich that William Kennedy Smith -- then facing a rape charge on which he was acquitted in Palm Beach, Florida -- knew something about the murder. This rumor proved to be untrue, but sparked curiosity into Martha's unsolved murder. The article stirred new public interest. The case regained national attention in 1993 when "A Season in Purgatory," Dominick Dunne's best-selling novel based on the murder, was published. Dunne, who later wrote extensively about the O.J. Simpson trial, encouraged Mark Fuhrman to investigate the case. Throughout the years Greenwich Police and the State Prosecutor never stopped searching for clues. But leads were few and far between, and the investigation appeared to be going nowhere. Several years later, former Los Angeles police detective Mark Fuhrman started to write a book about the case. Fuhrman had gained notoriety when his controversial testimony allegedly tainted the prosecutions' case against O.J. Simpson. Throughout his investigation of Martha's murder Fuhrman promised that "Murder in Greenwich" would name the killer. But Greenwich authorities did not welcome this "outsider". "I have no reason to talk to Mark Fuhrman," snapped one investigator who refused Fuhrman's request for an interview. Authorities told Fuhrman they wouldn't cooperate because they did not want to jeopardize their ongoing investigation. "What they are actually doing." Fuhrman said, "is hiding old mistakes." "If you know there was a mistake and you leave it that way because you won't allow yourself to say or admit that you made a mistake, then that's a catastrophic mistake," he said. Retired police Detective Stephen Carroll, one of the few cooperating with Fuhrman, agreed that investigators made mistakes but insisted the Skakels did not get special treatment. "Mistakes happened," Carroll said. "Because of inexperience." The department had not handled a murder in 30 years. "I think it was bungled from the first moment," Author Dominick Dunne said. "It was a small community then. And this was an amazingly rich family." Fuhrman's interest in the case gave Moxley's family n |

Even if he solved a murder, so fuckin' what? Doesn't change the fact that he's racist. Would anyone think any better of O.J. Simpson if anyone mentioned that he once in a while gave money to charity? |

It's the latter that Fuhrman has a problem with, along with white, Hispanic, Asians, Middle-Eastern, Filipino, whatever members of Future Felons of America.

Edit: And by the way, the idea that I'm a bigot is so laughable that I originally wasn't even about to reply to it. I go to a school that is 1/3 African-American, and I have African-Americans in every one of my classes, many African-American friends, acquantiences, I am on a tennis team that is predominantly African-American and my doubles player is an African-American. I hold it against her far more that she is a freshman ^_^ |

But if that does happen, the average conservative way of communicating with the other side is to choose a polar opposite argument as a means to deflect attention from the subject at hand. This is why there is little dialogue between the two sides in this western world. Self-importance, and personal agendas. |

The truth of the matter is that Sarajane has for the past weeks trying to convince us that Mark Fuhrman is not a racist, and there's absolutely no way to prove the opossite. I mean, the guy commited perjury motivated by his very own racist views, and more than anything he makes personal racial remarks on recorded tapes. No wonder why he's good buddies with Sean Hannity, who happens to be a good friend of another racist bastard, Rush Limbaugh. Seems to be like racist people are more than willing to do anything to give each other support. I call that UNITY! |

A fat, ugly, narcisstic drug addict, yeah (don't like Limbaugh AT ALL) but where's the evidence that he's a racist? Also, connecting Fuhrman to Limbaugh via Hannity is so six degrees of Kevin Bacon. |

Rush Limbaugh said: "Sorry to say this, I don't think he's been that good from the get-go. I think what we've had here is a little social concern in the NFL. The media has been very desirous that a black quarterback do well. There is a little hope invested in McNabb, and he got a lot of credit for the performance of this team that he didn't deserve. The defense carried this team." |

Hey, who was the commentator who once said a black wide receiver ran so well because he grew up running through the jungle? I think he lost his job within seconds, and hasn't been on tv since. |

Even when one of the creators is Jewish, is still far beyond me how did they get away with that one. |

Limbaugh likes to hear himself talk, that's nothing new. And he's been quite proven wrong, as McNabb is a GREAT quarterback (for MY home team, the Eagles! Go Eagles! YEEEEAAAAH!). |
