UPDATE: One of the "Scrubbed Files" Burkett Saw in the Trash Was "Signed by LTC Jerry Killian"

*** EXCLUSIVE ***

Via commenter BR, more evidence.

This post discusses Burkett's claims, back in February, and speculates that Burkett's claims about George Bush pulling strings to deny him medical care might be, well, less than well-founded.

Which elicits a reaction from someone calling himself Bill Burkett, with an AOL mail address of BBurkett[number omitted]@aol.com.

Here's the reaction:

Neither am I mistaken, nor lying about any of this. The paperwork is complete and was presented with the court case against three individuals (Goodwin, Meador and Taliaferro) along with documentation including a recorded telephone call with Dan Bartlett of the governor's staff and eight letters and three phone calls to the governor's office by my wife.

Of the files that I saw within the 15 gallon waste can were numerous documents which detailed why 1LT George Bush was grounded from flying including a two-page counseling statement signed by LTC Jerry Killian.

Note: The number following the name on the email address has been omitted so as not to encourage mass-mailings to that addresss. I don't believe in that sort of e-nnoyance, and I don't want to be a part of anything like that.

Reporters' work email addresses are a different matter, since they're supposed to answer to the public on occasion; but not their personal email addresses in any case.
