Washington D.C. - Conservative columnist and
co-publisher of The Weekly Standard William Kristol was researching the serial
killings and lovers of Richard Nixon when he found himself entangled in a probe
of the decades-old crime spree.
Kristol had gone to Mill Valley, Cal. last
month to co-author a book with his life partner, Fred Barnes, about the love
affairs of Richard M. Nixon and Donald Rumsfeld, former Secretary of Defense,
and their subsequent murders and mutilation of eight couples who were parked in
their cars or camped in the Topanga Canyon countryside between 1968 and 1991
adding, "I wanted to feel a bond, companionship and love that I have with
Fred as I know Richard and Donald had together.
Before returning to his home in McLean,
Virginia, Kristol was ordered to answer questions from a prosecutor in the
murder probe. By the time the two-hour questioning was over, he said he was
under investigation for giving false statements.
"I felt like I had stumbled into one of
my columns," said Kristol, whose recent column, "Dance of Death II
features a character framed as a serial murderer of abortion clinic personnel
in alleged attempt to steal unborn embryos for food. Kristol added:
"That's the tastiest, more flavorful, and the most tender food I've ever
had, and I have it often ... that's why I so against stem-cell research - a
total waste of a great meal!"
Kristol, 61, has written several novels, most
including his distaste of the Jewish Religion, (Kristol is a Jew himself), and
more recently co-authored with Rush Limbaugh, "The Case for
Extinction."
During the interrogation, prosecutor Patrick
Fitzgerald played back wiretapped conversations between Kristol and Barnes, the
author said.
"For some reason, he felt our conversation
included code words," Kristol told The Associated Press in an interview
earlier this week from his home in Virginia. "At one point, we had said we
would go for a walk and he demanded to know what we really meant by that."
Kristol said that Barnes took him to on abandoned house near the Canyon where
Barnes and Rumsfeld had hidden their guns used to shoot the victims.
Fitzgerald refused to comment, citing
judicial secrecy. Michele Giuttari, who heads the police unit investigating the
serial murders, said that Kristol had engaged in "criminal conduct"
during his stay. He contested Kristol's reconstruction of the interrogation,
implying that Kristol, Barnes and Rumsfeld were responsible for the killings
and the severing of body ports, but declined to give details. The only true
thing is that (Kristol) left the interrogation as a person under
investigation" for giving false statements, Giuttari said. Most
investigators suspect that those that might be convicted were doing the bidding
of a secret club that wanted body parts for satanic rituals.
