[The Great One]

This is all starting to just look like a conspiracy theory. Now it is
possible they could have been involved or it was because of them. I
mean come on.... Again yes I feel like things should be questioned but
are you really trying to make this a CIA thing. Seeing as though many
people have responded to me when I ask a question everyone refers to
you as a female and that you "know things" that could get you hurt. So
I am curious about your motive....this is not about clearing someone's
name because he was never convicted of killing Joan Webster it was
just thought. I see now that you just think there is corruption in
every level of goverment and are seeking to place blame there. Again,
I don't recall any crimes quite like Maries or Joans after Lenny was
jailed. There is no way you are putting this much effort into this
because you feel for Lenny being wrongly convicted! Are you an ex-
girlfriend, friend or family member. Just seeing this artticle makes
me not want to look at this so seriosly now. I hope you don't get
killed by someone in the so CORRUPT Mass State Police or DA's office
for posting your opinion. Or worse yet the
CIA............................Keep in mind I am just being devils
advocate here I don't really care about a dead rapist, women beater
and seeing his name cleared and for the record (because I think you
think you have an idea who I am and you may be wrong). I don't care
about Burke either his book was a farce just saying he investigated
everything, first of all Police investigate not a DA with a million
other cases to handle and there are a few people he wrote about that
he claimed to know so much about when he knew nothing at all and if he
wasn't such a chicken shit he wouldn't have screened his phone calls
on the radio station that night he was on because he knew he was
wrong. So again my stake in this keeping one person's name unscathed
as I know it should be. Please don't send me another condesending e-
mail about things people do that could affect the living. You don't
know me or my family but I will not allow it and I will put a stop to
it. Thats it for me!! I want to thank everyone for your time and your
e-mails!

I believe you are correct that police are the ones that investigate
and Burke is giving himself the credit. Prosecutors also aren't
typically assigned a case until there is something to prosecute.
Burke was given the Joan Webster case before there was any known crime
in February 1982. That took place in a meeting called by the Websters
after they got an anonymous call implicating Paradiso in the Iannuzzi
murder and the Joan Webster disappearance. Days later, 3-5-1982, a
grand jury was convened as the Commonwealth vs. Leonard Paradiso. It
didn't become a John Doe case until later because the testimony would
have likely gained an indictment against David Doyle for the Iannuzzi
murder. The anonymous caller had to have known Paradiso had been a
suspect in the Iannuzzi case. The caller was later identified by Tim
Burke as Patty Bono. She later made allegations in testimony without
any verification. The target was Paradiso and this was all to set up
a scapegoat for Joan Webster.

It's fair to look at the Webster background. They publically support
Burke's allegations and say they believe Bond's statement even after
it was known to be false. What convinced them? These are people well
educated, have a unique background that is by definition a profession
that digs out information, and they were involved in the
investigation. Was Burke or law enforcement so convincing the
Websters were deceived? Why would they deceive them?
