TED STRECKER, the attorney brother of Dr. Robert Strecker, was fatally shot to death alone in his home in Springfield, Missouri on August 11, 1988. After spending three years researching the origin of AIDS, Ted Strecker reportedly become frustrated with the general lack of interest in his findings that the virus may have been man-made. Officials consider the death a suicide, but Robert Strecker spoke with his brother on the telephone the night before and reported him to be in good spirits. "I don't think my brother died from a self inflected gunshot wound," Robert Strecker has stated. Ted Strecker, a .22-calibre rifle found near his body, left behind no written message to survivors, an omission considered very untypical of him.
In the process of researching these articles, this writer uses his computer in Seattle to access electronic 'bulletin board systems' across the country. In the spring of 1989, this writer connected to a computer system then located in Colorado. This writer contacted the system's manager, expressing an interest in the subject of the possible artificial origin of the AIDS virus. The system manager stated that among the users of his BBS was a former Harvard Ph.D. candidate who planned to write his doctoral thesis on that very subject. The Harvard student, the system manager said, had been told by his academic superiors in no uncertain terms to leave the subject alone. The system manager offered to put this writer in touch with the student and this writer expressed his interest in such a contact. A week later, the BBS mysteriously went 'off-line' and no connection has been re-established since that time.
Included with material that C & C Marketing mails with Robert Strecker's videotaped presentation, The Strecker Memorandum, is the story of Illinois Representative Douglas Huff of Chicago.
Huff was found alone in his home, dead from an apparent overdose of cocaine and heroin, on September 22, 1988. Representative Huff did everything in his power to make the Illinois State Legislature and the people of Chicago aware of Dr. Strecker's work. He was very vocal, gave many press interviews, was constantly on television and radio urging people to wake up to the cover-up concerning AIDS . . . "Representative Huff associates doubt he died accidentally. . ." the C & C Marketing material states.
Early in September, 1990, Robert Strecker was a guest on a radio show in Florida. Accompanying him was marketing associate Jack Carpenter. During the course of the program, Carpenter mentioned his company's 1-800 number that interested listeners could call for further information. Upon returning home to California on September 10, Carpenter found that his answering machine had apparently been tampered with, preventing it from taking any calls.
In an effort to interest the London Sunday Express in publishing this article in the United Kingdom, reporter Alfred Lee (author of the previously mentioned article) was contacted in November, 1990. In a telephone conversation with this writer on December 4, Lee said he had taken this article to his senior editors, but after reviewing it, they decided against printing it. The reason was wholly unpredicted.
According to Lee, his editors considered the idea that the AIDS virus originated in an American laboratory to be old news and therefore not worthy of further coverage. Lee said this writer's article only supports what his article in the Sunday Express stated four years ago. "We wouldn't have printed it if it wasn't true," Lee told this writer.
IN MARCH, 1991, Jack Carpenter contacted this writer to say he (Carpenter) had received a telephone call from a person on the East Coast who claimed to have a copy of a secret memo smuggled out of Fort Detrick. The memo, allegedly bearing the signature of Dr. Robert Gallo (American co-discoverer of HTLV-III, the AIDS virus), attested to the man-made nature of the virus. Carpenter was very enthusiastic about traveling back east to obtain what would clearly have been 'the smoking gun' of his investigation. Further, Carpenter expressed an interest in having this writer accompany him on the trip. This writer declined the invitation, telling Carpenter the entire scenario sounded very suspicious. Neither this writer nor Dr Alan Cantwell nor Dr. Robert Strecker have heard from Carpenter since this time. Carpenter's telephone number has been alternately disconnected and working on several occasions since his apparent disappearance, but messages left on his answering machine have not been returned.
