While in DC/VA, we had set up an interview with Father Stephen McGraw, an Opus Dei Priest who was on Rt. 27 just as Flight 77 allegedly passed over his car by 20 ft.
A little history on Father McGraw. He was a trial attorney for the US DoJ (Department of Justice) for 5 years prior to becoming a man of the cloth. He had told us that he became a priest only a couple months before 9/11.
He told us his story pretty much as it is told in published accounts. Very little variance. He at first said that the plane had hit the some light poles that had struck a cab. After I questioned him further on this, he admitted that he deduced this after the fact and hadn't actually seen the plane strike the poles, in turn striking the cab.
I made sure to get him on camera admitting he used to be a DoJ attorney. I also made sure to make mention of the fact that he claims to pull up next to the Pentagon and he had no idea that he was next to the Pentagon. He even goes so far as to admit that he had lived in the area his whole life and still had no idea the building he was next was the Pentagon, "because it has five sides". Yet, in this very interview he is giving us, he makes mention of seeing the aftermath of the "Air Florida crash on the 14th street bridge" that he could "see from his highschool".
So let me get this straight. He grew up in the area his whole life, went to high school just across the river, knew where the 14th street bridge was, and yet had no idea that the building he pulled up next to was the Pentagon???
I also made sure to make him admit that he grabbed his stole and holy oil, jumped out his car, and crossed the guardrail to the lawn within 45 seconds of the impact.
This is a major problem because Mark Faram, a reporter/photographer for Navy Times said he did this when he arrived on the scene. Mark Faram admitted he arrived 10 minutes after the 'explosion' (impact) after walking down the hill from the Navy Annex.
When I asked him if he actually seen the plane enter the building, he looked me dead in the eyes, didn't blink, and said: "I saw the plane enter the building".
Here is the full context of my analysis on him:

Stephen McGraw is a former US JUSTICE DEPARTMENT attorney, now born again Opus Dei Preist. He too was on Northbound Rt 27, in the left hand lane, supposedly a few feet from the Taxi Driver.
This is the most damaging aspect of his account. He is a FORMER US JUSTICE DEPT ATTORNEY and he doesn't know that he was near the Pentagon building, didn't even know it was the Pentagon until later?!?!?!?!?! Let's look at his history in the area...
So he is a lawyer at the JUSTICE DEPT and lived in VA all his life. Going to law school only 2 hours from DC and he doesn't know the Pentagon Building???? He doesn't know how to find his way to Arlington Cemetery??? Arlington National Cemetery is in between the Corpus Christi school and the Pentagon. Such an opportune mistaken route he took. Back to his account...
-His flight path/trajectory angle plainly contradicts the other eyewitness accounts who claimed it came in at a downward angle, tilting the wings. Not "controlled and sort of straight". It looked the opposite of a landing, a landing has the plane at an upward angle. -Fireball out of only two windows??? -He heard "collective gasp" after a very loud set of RB211's roared twenty feet above him and while he had his "windows closed" Mark D. Faram is currently the Senior Staff Writer for Navy Times, and apparently a photographer as well. He took the picture above of former US Justice Dept attorney and Opus Dei "Priest"-Stephen McGraw. He also took the infamous photo of the lawn debris:  Here is his account in an e-mail to Dick Eastman...
-Note he doesn't hear the roar of the jet engines above the Navy Annex, like other eyewitnesses claim. Note he only hears the explosion. -He runs down the hill and arrives there 10 minutes after the "explosion". Which would make sense I would assume coming from the Navy Annex. Now here comes his lie regarding Father McGraw and the Rt. 27 scene...
HOW CAN HE WITNESS STEPHEN MCGRAW CROSS THE GUARDRAIL WITHIN 45 SECONDS OF THE CRASH WHEN HE WASN'T THERE FOR 10 MINUTES?!?!?!?!?! |
At the end of our interview, we asked him about secondary explosions. He admitted hearing some, but figured it was due to pressurized or flammable items in the building. We unfortunately didn't get that on tape.
As we were getting ready to leave, he decided to give us a little gift. He gave us a little medallion, St Michael the arch angel slaying a serpent creature (Satan?) with the words "Protect us" on the back.
It was bizarre to say the least, and surreal to say the most.
I am pretty sure we were talking to an operative who was assigned to the staged Rt 27 scene.
