Excellent info. located by DU'er "BushKnew."
An anti-terrorism investigator of the Colombian police said no e-mails were found on the computer of slain FARC commander Raúl Reyes. Investigators only found Word documents, Noticias Uno reported Tuesday.

Captain Ronald Hayden Coy Cortiz declared before the prosecution that e-mail addresses were found in the Word documents, but that there were no e-mails on the computers.

"We haven't seen any e-mails, I haven't found them so far. They found a large number of e-mail addresses, but Reyes kept these in a Word document and other Microsoft documents," the investigator said in his testimony.

We knew the truth from the first, but didn't think it would ever see the light of day as long as a fascist toad remained as Colombia's President, and our own government backed him up. This is really cool.

Thanks, thanks, thanks to BushKnew. :woohoo:

1. More, found in a search: Colombia: investigator swears laptop had no emails
Colombia: investigator swears laptop had no emails
by Penta on Tue Dec 02, 2008 6:49 pm

Captain Ronald Hayden Coy Cortiz, the anti-terrorist investigator from DIJIN who wrote the report on the magic laptop, has sworn under oath that there were no emails at all on it. It was all Word docs.

The Colombian government has been claiming there were thousands of emails, and has arrested and charged all sorts of people, including politicians, journalists and members of NGOs they don't like. And of course they've had great fun smearing Chávez and other Venezuelan and Ecuadorian politicians (though their case against Chávez at least, on the basis of the "email" they quoted was so pathetic as to be completely risible anyway).

They can say the saved Word documents were saved emails sent or received, but it turns out there is no evidence on the laptop of any communication, one way or the other, between the FARC leadership and any of those who've been accused.

Don't hold your breath waiting for apologies.
