So, here is what we "have":
Four guys, all with security clearances, are carpooling to or from Somewhere, USA and stop to eat. Sitting in a public restaurant, these four guys (all of whom has a security clearance) start talking. One of these guys, who happens to be an FBI agent, starts spilling the beans about how the FBI has solved the Cooper case but instead of letting it be known decides to bury it, since the hijacker is dead. (Never mind that a few years ago the FBI was very public about their latest suspect who they hoped to solve the case with, who was also dead). So this FBI agent has this info on Cooper, which absolutely had to be info that only those on a "need to Know basis" would have. This would not have been "all over the FBI" as Blevins has asserted. But this agent, the one with a security clearance, starts talking and gives out all of this secret info on Cooper. And here is the real kicker....one of the guys at this table, by sheer coincidence, just happens to be friends with none other than Robert M Blevins. Really? It's at this point that this story goes from highly unbelievable and improbable, to complete and utter bullshit.
1. I can't emphasize enough that Blevins has pointed out that these guys all supposedly had security clearances. I've never had a security clearance, but a little over a year ago I was going through the process of getting one until I received a better opportunity and left that job, thus ending the process of obtaining a security clearance. But I did learn a thing or two about security clearances. One of the things I learned is that you simply do not talk about things that are learned from your job, especially things that are obtained on a need to know basis. Regardless how big or small they are. The act of talking about things such as this, will absolutely result in having your clearance pulled rather quickly. "If you talked about this, then what else have you talked about?". Likewise, the ability to not talk about even the smaller less important things, indicates that you can be trusted with the more secretive and important info. But yet, here we have one of the Bureau's own, giving out info, which was meant to be kept quiet. I don't buy it.
2. Why isn't Blevins posting this on his own site? Think about that one for a minute. He's been pushing Kenny for all of these years, he posts everything from Cooper to his music playlist for the BBQ on his site. But, now he has this game changing groundbreaking information on Cooper and he instead chooses to take it to The Mountain News instead? Why would he allow this news to be broke on the site ran by person that he has a very contentious relationship with who he has butted heads with for years? Damn, that's a hell of an olive branch!
3. Blevins has had his website for well over a year now. But, this earth shattering news just happens to come in a 3 or 4 day period when he just happens to be having a "spirited" conversation with Shutter. It has now changed the whole direction of that conversation...a conversation in which Mr. Blevins was getting taken to the proverbial woodshed.
4. Blevins is a known deceiver. We all know about the lies in the KC story: Kenny's house purchased with cash, Lyle was visited by two FBI agents and gave them DNA samples.
Whether these lies were the creation of Mr. Blevins or not, he certainly pushed them and to the best of my knowledge are still contained in his book. They were left up on a youtube video for several months even though these things were known not to be true. He had no problem with these lies being in the video, they enhanced his argument. If I myself had not brought this up on the DZ, that video would still be up on youtube. He also created the infamous MikeJ, the only active poster on his forum in recent months besides Mr. Blevins, who turned to be Mr. Blevins himself.
5. Blevins is also very gullible. He falls for anything that may seem to indicate that Kenny could be Cooper, as opposed to taking an unbiased look at things. This is very visible in the evidence against KC.
One of two things are happening here. Either Blevins is trying to play everyone, or someone is playing Blevins. He's been too specific with the details about this for it to be a case of him hearing "inside job" and jumping to conclusions and really has left himself no wiggle room.
Again, this guy spilled this info to four guys that could have been friends with anyone. Why didn't he spill it to a friend of mine? Or Shutters? Or Georgers? What are the odds that any of these guys were friends of anyone who followed the Cooper case at all. But, against all the odds, he spilled the beans to a buddy of Blevins! I'll say it again: Bullshit!!
