If an award was given out for the individual who worked the hardest to kill himself, that award would have to be given to Kenneth Michael Trentadue. In his cell at the Oklahoma City Federal Transfer Center on August 21, 1995, he patiently tore his sheet into dozens of strips, tied them together into a noose, attached it to a vent grate, and made his bed like a good little boy.
He then proceeded to hang himself.
Unfortunately, his handy work wasn’t up to par, and the noose broke, whereby he first hit the sink, “ricocheted” to the metal desk, hitting his head, bouncing again, hitting his head on the wall, and scraping skin off his back. Being half-conscious, he got up and fell again, hitting his head on a metal stool. Being determined to kill himself, he then cut his throat ear to ear with a plastic knife or tube of toothpaste, but this didn’t do the job, and so tried to hang himself again, this time being successful. Not to be outdone by anyone else, all of this was not only accomplished, but accomplished in record time. Everything occurred within sixteen minutes, including tearing the sheet into strips and forming the noose.
At least that’s what the U.S. Government said happen to him.
Well, they didn’t tell his family all these strange circumstances that led to his death until, well, three years later, with the introduction into the picture of a forensic expert by the name of Tom Bevel. (More on him later)
Marie Carter, the acting warden of Oklahoma City Federal Transfer Center (OKFTC), phoned Trentadue’s mother at 3 a.m. to inform her that her son had just hung himself with a bed sheet. And, like all good acting wardens, she offered to immediately cremate her son free of charge. Mom said “thanks but no thanks” and informed the Good Samaritan Marie that one of her other sons was a lawyer and they’d get back to her.
When the family got Trentadue home, they would find his body beaten and gashed from head to foot—literally—as there were even bruises on his feet. Along with his throat being cut ear to ear, there were three wounds to the head, all fracturing his skull. There was also a strange impression on his throat, which, for anyone who has handled what are called cable ties (and as law enforcement uses them for handcuffs—Flexcuffs), knows, the impression on Trentadue’s throat was made from the ridges on a cable tie being pressed and tightened around his neck.
It was obvious to the family, including Jessie Trentadue-the lawyer in the family-that his brother was beaten and murdered. But what wasn’t obvious was why the Government was trying to cover it up.
What they would come to find out after a sinuous journey of lies, deceptions, stonewalling, and cover-ups from the Bureau of Prisons, FBI, and eventually Eric Holder, was the following. Kenneth Michael Trendadue, in the aftermath of the bombing of the Arthur P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995, was murdered because the FBI thought he was the elusive John Doe #2 and wouldn’t admit to it (at least until they said John Doe #2 didn’t actually exist, contrary to dozens of witnesses).
What the Trentadue family has sought since they saw Kenny’s mangled body is justice. Where does one find justice? At the Department of Justice, of course.
Unfortunately for the family, at the time, Eric Holder was the Deputy Attorney General under Janet Reno, and later Acting Attorney General.
And we all know how Eric Holder is about administering justice.
In late 2008, when it was announced that Eric Holder, Obama’s choice of Attorney General, was about to go through congressional confirmation hearings, Jessie Trentadue sent a scathing letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee. This letter described Holder as the “point man” to keep the Trentadue family’s wrongful death lawsuit at bay, and to keep the story out of the media and forestall a congressional investigation.
Sound familiar? Eric Holder involved in a cover-up, keeping the truth of an American citizen’s murder out of the purview of the public, the mainstream media, and Congress?
Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry is dead wholly due to the fact that Eric Holder was not held accountable for the cover-up of the murder of Kenneth Michael Trentadue. If he had been held accountable, there would have never been a “botched” gunrunning scheme masquerading as a way to disarm the American people. Would not have left a patriot’s family mourning the loss of their son. Would not have left this stain on America that has Barack Hussein Obama’s fingerprints all over it.

AMEN!!
The more I learn of these people, the more I feel the need for a shower. Just reading about them makes me wish I could spray the entire country with a water hose and clean the filth out of here…..We should have people doing that for us…we hired them to reperssent us…they are silent. Therefore when I stand in that voting booth, I will NEVER give them another vote.
The washing away of the filth creeping across America begins soon. But it is going to take us all, or we will have wasted the water. No more incumbents who have voted with this guy….no more politics as usual….it is not working for US. After we get done with the cleaning, we are probably going to have to repaint…..lots of work ahead for us….let's get busy.
All voting records need to be published before every election along with a Reader Digest version of all bills voted on. Eliminate all riders attached to bills on make all riders/ bills stand ontheir own. Term limits and reduce salaries on benefits to the level of the average citizen. Make politicians have the same health care as everyone else and make them live on social security along with a small retiremnt fund. No more working as a lobbyist for at least ten years after leaving office. No contact with lobbyists during that time and if caught a healthy prison term and freezing of all assets. Also potential confiscation of said assets. Maybe these suggestions would help.
When will this all stop ? Maybe if enough Americans stand on White house lawn and protest until Eric holder give up or maybe we need to force Eric Holder out of White House ? Along with Obama
This is the most blatantly criminal administration in U.S. history. What I would like to know is what the Republicans are doing about this. Why isn't Congress looking into all these things like they did with Nixon and the mild crimes of Watergate by comparison? Our government is asleep or complicit.
Congress isn't looking into this because they confirmed him—-for some reason, I know not what. It will be a cold day in hell before they would ever admit they made a mistake.
Remember the tons of money coming into the coffers of the politicians in both parties. Also Obama and Co. probably know where all the skeletons are hidden and are afraid of losing their jobs. Anyone for term limits?
How does a man like this get away with the hoffiic things he has done? Where is the justice in our country?
How could we allow a man like this to become Atty General. I am sooooo tired of these thugs that are running our country.
Eric Holder is just another Chicago hoodlum like his buddy in the Oval Office! Both need to be gone!
Oh man, Holder has his prints from one end of these murders to the other. And Obutthead, Oliar, is as guilty, or possibly more so than Holder. And don’t forget Clinton in all this mess too, because he was president at this time, wasn’t he? This albino, adulterer knows more than he’s telling too! He is as perverted and as immoral as the rest of them. His wife, old Cankles, knows a lot also, I’d bet on it! And I’m not a betting person, but that is one bet I’d take! Somewhere, someone knows something, and they have been threatened or paid off to keep quiet. Someone knows why the Oklahoma City bombings took place. Jesse just happened to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time, and look like the wrong guy. I wonder how many other people died over being in the same position, situation as Jesse was? Who was in that building that they wanted dead so much that they MURDERERD ALL THOSE PEOPLE TO GET? Something smells badly in “denmark”, or in Washington DC! Very, very bad smell coming out of that place. And off the sweat of those bodies there………………..fear of being found out, and Obama is at the Head of the Line of Fear! Too bad he isn’t “afreared” enough!
If Timothy McVeigh was the lone bomber…..And Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone shooter…..Who in their right mind would believe that crap!….The government just spins and spins and spins!
The reason Obutthole claimed executive priviledge was because he himself is involved and he couldnt have Witholder talking.You also talked about Slick Willy who never meet a girl he didn't want to F–K,he's hornier then a three peckered billly goat and his wife bags.Disgusted remember when Vince Foster supposedly committed suicide,shot himself in the head according to the FBI with no blood at the crime scene according to the papers.Ask yourself what did Foster know that the white negroe had to get rid of him.
I'm more curious how that pregnant woman committed suicide by shooting herself in the back while Clinton was pres. That was a good suicide.
Clintons are knee deep in blood.
Disgusted-During the "clintonista dual presidency", bilious hillary was the "brains" (planner, manipulator), "slick" was the "mouth-in-a-suit"! Remember Waco and Ruby Ridge, the Vince Foster "suicide"- – rosegate, filegate, travelgate, ad infinitum? The clintons smuggled the entire bin laden family out of the country- – Monica was merely a "distraction"! Then you had "poor pitiful" bilious hillary doing her "grandstand act" – -"I'll stand by my man"!! Ya, right! Those two deserve arrest and trials for fraud, murder, treason and a hundred or more other things!
Witholder is a useless piece of shit and he has no balls to defend himself as an accessory to murder instead like most blacks cry racism.He screwed up in anything he's had his hand into and the stupid Sambos think he's great.
Quit the racist talk. There are plenty of good intelligent,honest black people out here. there is good and bad in all groups/ You appear to be in one of the bad ones with your nonsense. No I am not a liberal nor do I agree with 99.9% of what they say. No I don't like Obama, his administration nor Holder. You sound just like the Black Panthers only on the white side. I also don't like the corrupt politicians in the house or senate in either party. I also question the validity of the so called supreme court and for that matter most of the rest of our so called judicial system. I don't like what I see happening to this country. Much of it can also be left at the feet of our college professors, whom I suspect were yesterdays hippies .BTW I spent 22years in the military am 73 years old and a long way from being addle brained> I also happen to be white and don't believe that just because a person happens to disagree with someone of a different ethic group makes a person a racist because of the disagreement.
Thank you for your service sir. And I agree with everything you said. It doesn't do any good to spout hatred like the other side does. I don't know how we can save this country. Even though I try to stay optimistic, some days ….are just worse than others I guess.
This could happen to anyone reading this. Anytime, anywhere. There's a reward offered for the arrest of Brian Terry's murders. Is it possible to citizens arrest Holder or Obama, kidding, wish it was that simple.
There is a contempt of Congress charge against Holder the DOJ is REFUSING to enforce. They SHOULD be knocking on his door…
I'm glad you gave 22 years in the military because I respect the military.I volunteered for the military when we were fighting in Viet Nam but couldn't get in even when I was drafted.I have a daughter to gave 4 years and her husband 25 years retiring as a LT Col.Now my youngest is in the Air Force so my feelings have nothing to do with the military.I will quit talking about racism when they the liberal democrats quit using it as an excuse to use against anyone who opposes Obutthole.I sir have donated to Herman Caine and Col West plus I consider
Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell and other black leaders as people who got my views.I have written comments in our paper that you hold up people like Jackson,Sharpton or some sports bum but you never brag about Ben Carson who is real black person to look up to.Hope you know who he is before you condemn me a racist.
I am a realist in terms of racial matters. Someone commented that there are many good, intelligent, honest
black people out here. I agree on two adjectives: good and honest. But intelligent hardly. It is a lack of applying oneself in the educational process. I see very little motivation in my black students. Being a high school teacher, believe me, I have seen all types of students and those that apply themself achieve varied degrees of sucess. The lack of a core family, with good values is the real reason that black students do not
achieve success in the classroom. Very few become like Michael Jordan. If there was as much studing done as shooting the hoops there would be great gains in their educations. The average American black is the embodiment of the "entitlement" mentality, in that with the government providing everything…..where is the
motivation ? Some of you may disagree, but I have presented the facts.
Kris- -Thank you, thank you, thank you – -for publishing this story; I've been screaming and writing about it for the past 2 years, at least. Wish you would do more research and publish "the rest of the story"! The facts are as follows – -in 1995 holder was asst. AG, to Reno, during the "clintonista dual presidency"! Holder was "the one" who ordered the FBI to furnish the bomb making materials to McVeigh and company (the Murrah Bldg. bombers, April, 1995)!
Ken Trentadue and another man were being held in "protective custody" and both were murdered, in their cells, in August, 1995 – -because – -it was "feared" they could have blown holder's "cover"! For the past 17 years, the Trentadue Family (brother Jesse- -the attorney) have been trying to obtain "justice" for Ken. They have been stonewalled, blocked and lied to by the FBI, DOJ AND OIG! The case is now due, last I knew, to be heard in the 10th Circuit Court in Colorado!
It took 2 years for the FBI and DOJ to, finally, coerce (threaten) the Oklahoma City ME to change the COD (cause of death) from homicide, to suicide!! The ME "knew better" and held out as long as he was able, without causing "serious bodily harm" to himself, or his family! That's the way holder operates. And, yes, I intentionally use lower case for "low-lifes"!
