INTERVIEW WITH SHERMAN SKOLNICK -- JUNE 30, 1995
I spoke by phone with Sherman Skolnick in the late evening of 
June 30, 1995. The following is what he said. Note that I neither 
necessarily agree nor disagree with either all or parts of the 
following. Persons mentioned in the interview are invited to send 
their rebuttals, of reasonable length, to bigxc@prairienet.org 
for probable distribution.

CONSPIRACY NATION:
In a recent interview, Debra von Trapp has said that an ex-White 
House official who is still with the government has stepped 
forward and signed a document for Sherman Skolnick which 
"confirms my information". Has von Trapp's information...


SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Her information is *200* percent correct. Not only 100 percent 
correct. There's a lot more to the spying than she even knows 
about.


CONSPIRACY NATION:
Okay. If you've got a minute, I've got the tape recorder going. 
I'd appreciate any info you can give me.


SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Well, the other thing is, I've had probably the most horrendous 
couple of days of my life.

I'm not a youngster; I'm gonna be 65 soon. And I've been doin' 
this work since 1958. I've had a lot of things happen of a scary 
nature that I don't talk about, because it tends to scare some of 
the newer members of our group that are volunteers. So I don't 
talk about all the things that have happened to me.

Such as the 10 times I've been put in jail -- not for criminal 
offenses, but contempt of court, by judges who later ended up in 
jail for bribery, but meanwhile they used their power to try to 
stop me.

But what happened over the last week is, we have come into the 
possession of a secret, federal agency report on the death of 
[Vince] Foster that is probably one of the most horrendous and 
important documents that *I've* ever come across. And I wrote a 
story about it for a newspaper of a medium-sized circulation. And 
they were supposed to go to press with it Thursday. But, things 
have happened.

On Wednesday -- since I'm a disabled person, and I don't like to 
talk about the fact that I'm disabled because most of the time 
it's not pertinent to anything, whether I'm an able-bodied or 
disabled. I'm a paraplegic since I'm 6 years old. I get along 
with braces and crutches. I can walk on braces and crutches for 
maybe 50 feet. And beyond that, I use a wheelchair. Most of the 
day I'm laying down, because I can't be up and around that many 
hours.

And while I was laying down on Wednesday, a car pulled up on my 
drive, people got out and attacked my house with rocks. I didn't 
call the 911 emergency, because I thought, "It's an isolated 
event, and it may not happen [again]."

While I was away with some friends on Thursday, however -- and 
that would have been yesterday. While I was away, eating lunch, I 
came back and my house had been the subject of a terrorist attack 
of some kind. A large picture window in the front of the house 
was crashed-in. My front bedroom window was crashed through, 
through and through. Things outside my house were put upside- 
down. My mail had been gone through, may have been stolen from my 
mailbox.

I called the police. I live two blocks away from the 4th District 
Police in Chicago. And they seriously refused to consider my 
situation. I yelled on the phone that "I'm a helpless cripple." 
(I don't like to use the word, because it's a very severe term.) 
But I said something senseless -- you know what I'm saying?


CONSPIRACY NATION:
Yeah.


SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
And they wouldn't take down my report.

So I called the Police Superintendent of Chicago, Rodriguez is 
his name.

Now it is true that we did a TV show on him last year, on him 
being involved in the dope business. So I *have* criticized the 
Police Superintendent.

I called his office, and I spoke to his chief assistant. And they 
refused to do anything for me. He says, "We're overworked, and we 
haven't got time to defend people like you."

So I screamed on the phone (because I was quite upset. I suddenly 
felt very defenseless.) I says, "Look. I'm a poor cripple. I hate 
to say it, sir. But I *cannot* defend myself. And my parents made 
me promise not to take to the gun. But if these terrorist attacks 
on my house continue, the police won't lift a finger to defend 
me, I have to take this gun and shoot whatever it is that's going 
to attack me, I must."

Anyway, it took me an hour of arguing on the phone, with various 
police officials -- "brass", they call 'em -- before anyone would 
take down my report.

So, my friends are gonna do certain things (that I don't wish to 
describe here)... They're gonna make my house a fortress.

Now the medium-sized newspaper that was -- they have about 
300,000 circulation. And they were supposed to publish, probably, 
one of the most important stories of my life: the fact that White 
House aide Vincent Foster, jr. -- according to the report -- was 
involved in stealing and selling nuclear secrets of the United 
States, together with a known spy who has since been punished and 
sent away for a very long time to jail. But during this other 
person's trial, there was a "Mr. X" mentioned, and never 
identified. That, apparently, was Foster.


CONSPIRACY NATION:
And this would've been Jonathan Pollard, the other one, right?


SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Right.


CONSPIRACY NATION:
Okay. I know that from talkin' with "Mr. Royce" [not his real 
name]. "Mr. Royce" called.


SHERMAN SKOLNICK:
Okay. Yeah.

Now. Somebody, apparently... Now when I arranged with this 
publication to publish the story, I gave them exclusive rights to 
it, of course. And I wouldn't put it on Internet because it would 
be reneging on the exclusive arrangement. And they were going to 
donate a small amount to our organization. I'm not a commercial 
writer, and I don't write stories just for money. As most people 
know me, most of my stories don't bring a single penny. And I'm 
not complaining. We're dedicated to the public interest.

But somebody, apparently, stole the story after it had been set 
in, what they used to call "set in type". Nowadays, with the type 
of ways that they set up offset printing, it's not proper to call 
it "set in type". But let's just call it that. It was set in 
type. It was supposed to be the front page story.

Somebody stole the story... Somebody *may* have threatened the 
publisher. Because there is *tremendous* national security 
problems with this story. And apparently involved in this treason 
was not only the late Foster, who is dead, but a person who is 
*not* dead, and that's Hillary Rodham Clinton -- involved in 
treason of the highest level in the history of the United States: 
nuclear missile targeting data.
