Screen writer working with CIA mysteriously disappears

[mfcorey1]

When the skeletal remains of Hollywood screenwriter Gary Devore were found strapped into his Ford Explorer submerged beneath the California Aqueduct in 1998 it brought an end to one of America's most high profile missing person cases.

The fact that Devore was on his way to deliver a film script that promised to explain the 'real reason' why the US invaded Panama, has long given rise to a slew of conspiracies surrounding the nature of his 'accidental' death.

It didn't help that Devore's hands were missing from the crash scene, along with the script, and that investigators could offer no plausible explanation as to how a car could leave the highway and end up in the position it was found a year after he disappeared.

Now the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal that Devore was working with the CIA in Panama and even a White House source concedes his mysterious death bears all the hallmarks of a cover-up.

The findings, published in a new documentary The Writer With No Hands, are the first testimonies ever aired that give credence to the theories that surrounded the case in the late 90s.

1. I almost never hear of good things when it comes to Daily Mail

the timing would be strong circumstantial evidence & there are plenty of revealed conspiracies that show they operate like the Mob, how many "hits" have they done or attempted? They even teamed up with the mob or right wing militias when convenient. Operation Northwoods revelation showed the CIA was even willing to go so far to consider terrorist attacks against the US to build support for a war against Cuba.

Ulterior motive behind Panama *shocking* given that Naomi Klein discussed several ulterior motives behind regime changes in South America.

If this is true, meaning the truth is the obvious explanation to the mystery which the article hasn't gone further to report strange coincidences, than the last thing it should be is ignored.

5. Doesn't quite add up...

If Devore was murdered, no way in hell was it over a movie script...Oliver Stone's "JFK" never would have seen the light of day in that case, among countless other movies from that era...

A casual dig in the archive reveals a lot of odd puzzle pieces:

On the surface it is intriguing; I just think there is more to it than "because CIA"...
