Larry Sinclair held a news conference at the National Press Club today, Wednesday, June 18, 2008. Sinclair divulged the limo drivers name, Paramjit Multani. Multani was driving the Five Star Limousine that Sinclair rented. Sinclair also provided a document that reveals that a Rashpal Multani was an agent for the corporation operating the limo service in 1999. Reverend Manning, I am told, was in attendance.
Someone from the message board Capital Hill Forum was actually there at the press conference and more or less transcribed it. I am a member of the forum, so I can see the posts, but I don't know if anybody not a member can see them.
I am sure somebody else has transcribed the event.
I decided to go ahead and post what this poster, who goes by the name of Chalco, posted on the forum:
2:49pm The guy in front of me is from antipolygraph.com
2:52pm Just wondering who the players are here. What their agendas are. Whole new contingent just walked in.
2:57pm Definitely filling up. Only a few seats left.
3:03pm Montgomery Blair opening up. Larry S sitting next to him.
LS up to the microphone. Thanked Pastor James David Manning for being there. LS stating all the crimes he committed in the past. But as a citizen felt he had to come forth with the truth.
Recent coordinated effort to discredit him. LS admitted to being convicted and serving time. Bad checks, 1980-86. After going public warrant out of Fla dating from 1986, but now moot. Something pending from Colorado, but appealing this. Has had 3 legal names. Silvas, Avila, then back to Sinclair.
Nov 2 1999. Ohare airport. Nov 3. Said he arrived in Chicago to visit a friend and his godson. Rented a limo for 2 days, Nov 6 & 7, 1999. After being picked up by the limo driver, asked him to get him someone to be with who would show him a good time. Limo driver called someone and picked him up. Turned out to be BO. BO introduced himself with real name and said he was a public servant. Did not say he was a state senator which he was at the time. LS gave name of driver Jaguir Montana (?).
LS and O went to bar called Alibis (?). LS mentioned to O did he want a line or two to perk up. O said do you mean cocaine. Yes, then, O offered to make a purchase. So O made a call and then they proceeded to the pickup place and O left limo with $250 and bought cocaine. They did the coke in the limo. LS performed fellatio on O in the limo. Next day. O appeared unannounced at LS’s hotel room, did fellatio and drugs again. Phone records should confirm if any reporter wants to research it.
2007 LS called campaign to ask if O would correct the record and admit that he had bought and used cocaine after his youth as he had said he had in his book. LS gave several call back numbers. Late Sept to Oct received call from a Mr. Young. Young wanted names of anyone LS had told about 1999 allegations. Mr. Young asked why LS hadn’t asked the campaign to reveal the sex stuff. LS shocked because he had only mentioned drugs. Then, LS realized that Mr. Young was not from the campaign but was personal friend of O’s. LS received a text message later from Young that said Young was intimately involved with O and that the Pastor was working with O to help him figure out how to deal with this. O will publicly correct for the public re the drugs. Last contact, however, Y said O had no intention of revealing drug use.
3:17pm LS talking about lawsuits he is filing regarding misinformation about him. Had some questions to sum up his talk: Why wont O provide telephone numbers from 1999? Why wont O provide same for 9/2007 during the time that Young was murdered? Why wont O provide proof of all payments from aka (?) media, Axelrod and Obama campaign . LS will put up all documents he has on his website.
3:20pm Questions started:
1. Why did you wait until 2007-8 to come forward? In 1999 I didn’t care who O was. I wasn’t resident of Ill. Why now, I was resident of Mexico and knew plenty of crooked politicians. Whole thing related to drug use.
2. Are you receiving financial support from anyone? I am not connected with any party. Nor are they contributing to the cost. My expenses have come from donations from average citizens to my website.
3. What is Veritas Federal Media? Just a name LS cooked up and represents every individual person who donated. LS established it.
4. Would you be wiling to share mental health records? I will publish list of all my med records (and there was something he said about current records that the press could pay for )
5. Will you state whether you had sexual relation with any other politician? I have not been engaged with any other.
6. Why change name so often?. In younger years considered wild. Out of respect to my family. Larry Sinclair is my birth name.
7. He was introduced to you by name? Why didn’t you know he was politician? He was introduced to me by name. I wasn’t a resident of Illinois, I didn’t recognize the name. I became aware of who he was when he gave the keynote address at the convention. I was watching tv from Mexico.
8. How much did this cost? What do you do for a living? I’d have to check, as of Monday $4825 (?). I am disabled due to severe spine injury that occurred on the job.
9. Given your criminal record and the crimes you have been involved in, including fraud why should anyone believe you? To be honest, you don’t have to believe me, just hear me. I can’t defend my past. But, what I can say is I’ve always admitted what I did wrong. I’m not saying believe me, do research, check my facts.
10. What time did you meet him on Nov 6, 1999 ? Met him in early evening on Nov 6, but don’t remember the time on the next day.
11. How, when and where did you become disabled? Sacremento Calif. B&G Delivery Systems. My income is Social Security Disability.
12. Physical evidence to support claims? It will be posted later. On advice of attorney I wont say it here.
13. Did you save the text messages from Young? Changing of the phone numbers eliminated it.
LS Talking about veracity of polygraph. Wasn’t comfortable with the way it was done.
14. Why do you care whether O took drugs? What else did you chat about? Didn’t chat about much, What do for living. What doing in Chicago. His comments, didn’t act like politician..Said he was in public service.
Why care? Because this political season has turned everything upside down. Turned racism upside down.. Shirley Chisolm once sought nomination. Here was a true African American You could ask her questions about anything and not be accused of being racist. I bring up things about him and I’m called racist. Are you going to wait until election over to vet the candidates.
15. Question for the lawyer. You were suspended by the Florida supreme court. Why? I was too litigious, and didn’t pay child support. Also suspended by the DC bar with no opportunity to defend my situation. But I’m not the subject of what is happening here.
16. What about the Kilt? (Lawyer wearing a kilt). Don’t know why men wear pants. Pants are for men who are small, if you know what I mean. (Laughter)
17. Both you the attorney and LS have credibility issues, hard to take this seriously. Why should we take you seriously? Ask questions, then do research, rather than just look at pro O websites like Daily Kos, Huffington Post, FireDogLake. Go thru the record. Yes, I committed crimes but, I never wasted any time on a trial. Every time I was caught I admitted it and served time. I never hid. Get facts and then decide. My crimes are 20years ago.
18. Some facts are hard to corroborate facts. What about Mr. Montany (limo driver) He does have personal knowledge of what happened in limo. But since the vicious attacks started he decided to disappear. It was my understanding that he was in Tupelo, Miss. Recently. LS had a private investigator go there but the records were erased.
19. Would you make all financial records available? I have no problem with that.
20. Veritas media group and Joseph Giganti (sp?), are they connected? The name (VMG) was just drawn out of a hat. Mr G has no connection to me, never met, never had communication. He doesn’t finance me. All of this is paid by contributions thru paypal on the website.
21. Will you disclose your contributions? I will disclose all contributions without names.
22. Why no names? (Didn’t give clear answer to me)
23. I understand you have terminal brain tumor. Will you release you medical records? I will release my med records. It was diagnosed and confirmed, verified by Chicago Tribune. Will be up on ls.org later.
24. Do you allege that O had something to do with death of Young? Yes, that is my belief. That’s why I gave the information to the Chicago police. Yes. Definitely. My belief is that that O and J.Wright either know who had him killed or had him killed.
25. Who paying lawyer fee? Paypal to donate to legal fund which is me (lawyer).
26. Are you in negotiations to write book? No, nothing of any kind. I want media to take story and research facts and decide what to do with it. Not trying to make money from it.
27. You became aware of who he was when he gave that speech, why didn’t you keep cell phone records? Those records are available for 45 day periods, I’ve turned them over to Chicago police. 2 weeks ago asked them to give info, I am trying to get the info. I will post on website.(sorry this answer was confusing to get down.}
28. Who were you visiting in Chicago? John Crutzen (sp?) from Chicago Times can verify that its been verified. Will not tell you name of godson, but last name is Dukes.
29. Do either of you have position on O as president? Lawyer will not answer. LS I thought he was charismatic. I don’t prefer any of the 3.
30. Did you fall in love with him in 1999? What are your feelings today? (Crowd and LS laughing) No, I did not fall in love with him.. He is only charismatic by being modeled that way. Once you take away the teleprompter and the other props he’s a fake, placed there, made up and put in front of the American voter and allowed to walk away without answering questions.
31. Contact with limo driver? Earlier this year, contact with limo driver. I let him know that I made everything public on youtube. But, the press decided it was too hot to run with at the time.
32. What are you up to, isn’t it too early to impeach him (meaning O)? You’ve already elected him. Candidates are supposed to be vetted by the American public. It’s not personal for me. Only the orchestrated attacks on the internet are personal to me. I think you want to ask the guy who may be president to admit that his drug use went at least into 1999 and not in his youth as he claims in his book.
33. Have you had contact with the Clinton campaign? Officials, No, not to my knowledge. Supporters yes, I’ve spoken to quite a few of her supporters.
34. How do you know O and Wright were involved in murder of Young? Because of my conversations w/ Young. He used phone number that I gave to O campaign. He said O and Wright were talking about how to best deal with him, Young.
35. Some truth, was he well hung? O is a wanna be black boy with a white boy’s you know what.
36. How was Young killed? Execution style. No forced entry. In my opinion it was made to look like a copy cat to a murder that had occurred previously.
37. Weren’t there 3 murders of gays associated with O’s church? Larry Bland murdered earlier and used as a copycat to kill Young.
38. What is your sexual orientation? Gay all my life.
That's everything the person transcribed.
This was the person's impressions of Sinclair:
My sense of the whole situation is complicated. On the one hand there was a little bit of a circus atmosphere in that we had a lawyer in kilts who was suspended from the bar presenting a guy with a very checkered past trying to be heard and respected. LS is not the brightest guy in the world, plus not that articulate. He was dressed in a suit and wore glasses. Physically he looked fine and presented well. While speaking he lost his train of thought several times and lost his place in what he was reading.
So we have the circus plus incompetent side of things and at the same time we have this guy who is just saying "Here is what I know. Don't believe me. Check out whether I'm telling the truth. Do your job." This message came through loud and clear. Yes, he was a criminal many years ago, he still could be telling the truth. Not every word out of a criminal's mouth is a lie. The way to find out is to verify the data. That's all. It's very simple in the end.
The person also disputed much of what another site claimed happened in the press conference:
Ok. I just read the Mitch and Nan website. They are full of it. Here's what they said and I will refute most of it. My comments are in parentheses. Their's are in quotes.
"According to our reporter: No police showed up." (Don't know about this.)
"Most people there were young foreigners." (Um, no, everyone that asked questions spoke with 'American' accents. Median age was 35ish. All racial groups were covered.)
"Mostly young bloggers." (I saw a few bloggers, but most were regular press with recorders, notepads. I'm an older blogger!)
"Nothing was credulous." (What is the basis for this remark. There is no basis.)
"No proof was offered." (He presented information, look in his eyes, see how it feels, then check the facts.)
"Medical records would go on his website but you would have to pay for it." (He did not say that he would have to be paid for the records, he said to go and get them from the hospital but as anyone knows you have to pay for the material to be copied. Duh!)
"No driver mentioned." (The driver was mentioned several times and by name. Go find him and question him. Do your job.)
"No “proof” whatsoever." (Blah, blah, blah)
"Asked OBAMA campaign to release phone records." (Yes, he did say this.)
"No security people were there at all." (They were all over the place. Two at each door and then some positioned throughout the room. One right behind me.)
"Only questions were lame….why should we believe you, etc." (You've seen all the questions. I think they got to the heart of the matter."
"Our guy claims it to be the most anti-climatic, unbelievable thing he has ever seen. Says it was really a bunch of crap." (The purpose of the event was for the 'press' to see Mr. Sinclair for himself. Then, take the info and check the facts.)
"When asked about his new CORROBORATING evidence, Larry said it was “forthcoming”. " (Yes, he said in response to people who requested information like documents related to his finances, that he would provide it. Other stuff would be put up on the website.)
Rumor has it he has been arrested.
Apparently it is true:
[UPDATE at 6:53: Sinclair was arrested by DC Police after 2 US Marshalls showed up and presented a warrant from the State of Delaware for Sinclair’s arrest. Montgomery Blair Sibley, who’s had his law license suspended by the District of Columbia and Florida, and who was previously Sinclair’s attorney, reviewed the warrant and then Sinclair was led away.]
Speculation is that the arrest stemmed from a Delaware warrant, although there is also an outstanding felony warrant out for Sinclair from the Pueblo County (CO) Sheriff’s Department.
