6. Bloomberg is the only paper claiming that bit about 1934 and it's not on the site they point to. |
|
I've been to the Italian police site listed but I can't find any mention of the story or, especially, the 1934 reference. I've searched the site in English and Italian. Can someone give the link because the Bloomberg article is the only one which references the Kennedy bonds as being marked "1934".
I've cruised Italian postings of the story about the bonds but I haven't come across anything which noted that they were marked as 1934. I've also read the translated comments (there are quite a lot of people in Italy who are very interested in this story as you might imagine) and couldn't find anything relating to the 1934 allegation.
From my research, I think at the U.S. Treasury dept., there were people in the past who have tried to pass off fake bonds which had glaring inconsistencies which this story alleges. But I can't find any information which describes these particular bonds in that way. In fact, if you do some searching you'll find that in several articles the quality of the printing, stock and engraving are such high quality that it is noted that it may be impossible to tell the difference between these bonds and real bonds, save actually contacting the U.S. Treasury and tracing the paper trail.
The Bloomberg link just points to their homepage. Anyone?

|
They were all fake folks, chalk another one up to stupid criminals.
Nothing to see here, just move along.
