ABOUT TWA FLIGHT 800

   On Wednesday, July 17th at 8 PM a documentary title “TWA FLIGHT 800,” will air with its World Premiere on premium TV network EPIX. I was able to preview the entire film and can only say that if you are at all able to watch this, do so. Emmy Award-winning Journalist Kristina Borjesson who wrote, directed and co-produced, with Dr. Tom Stalcup (PhD Physics), TWA FLIGHT 800 explores the theory that for some reason the U.S. Government influenced the findings of Nation Transportation Safety Board on the probable cause of the crash.

    Chances are if you are reading this on Southampton Patch you have, as I have, met an eyewitness or two who quite frankly saw the plane impacted by a projectile, most likely a missile. The gripping account of events told by three investigators of the accident, recanting how and why the investigation was flawed in order to come to another conclusion is alarming. Retired military men, active pilots, and even east end law enforcement officers’ live eyewitness accounts were blatantly ignored and dismissed. In some cases witnesses claimed the FBI threatened them to change their stories. I can only say this after previewing TWA FLIGHT 800, and that is the local eyewitness “got it right.” At the end of the documentary a family member of one of the victims sadly says, “Nobody gives a s**t.” Perhaps after seeing TWA FLIGHT 800 Wednesday July 18, at 8 PM on EPIX Premium TV at network many more will.
