Following the suspected arsenic poisoning of a forensic technician in the Los Angeles County coroner’s office, the only eyewitness to Andrew Breitbart’s death has now vanished.

26-year-old Christopher Lasseter saw Breitbart drop dead “like a sack of potatoes” on March 1, hours before Breitbart was set to release a damning video that showed Barack Obama fraternizing with Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers.

Lasseter reported that Breitbart’s skin was a bizarre bright red color when he collapsed, a symptom not associated with heart attacks and one which was not explained in Los Angeles County Chief Coroner Craig Harvey’s autopsy report, which lists the cause of death as heart failure.

“I asked Lassiter specifically about Breitbart’s skin color and he said it was “bright red.” That bothered me because as an Army medical corpsman I knew that most heart attack victims turned blue,” wrote Paul Huebl, adding that Breitbart had drunk little alcohol and, “Poisons like cyanide, or carbon monoxide are known for turning skin red…The reality is they cannot be detected by normal toxicology testing.”

After World Net Daily hired a private investigator in an effort to locate Lassiter, it appears as though he has completely vanished.

    “After recruiting the assistance of private investigators, WND found that Lasseter, the 26-
    year-old witness who saw Breitbart drop dead, is no longer residing at his last known 
    address in California,” writes Jerome Corsi.

    “At the request of WND, Ohio-based private investigator Susan Daniels recruited a  
    California-based private investigator to find Lasseter. The local investigator tried without 
    success to find a cell phone or landline phone number for Lasseter.”

    “The investigator concluded Christopher Lasseter had “hunkered down” in what seemed to 
    be an attempt to avoid further questioning.”

Is it possible that Lassiter decided to flee after hearing about the suspicious death of Michael Cormier, a forensic technician who worked as a photographer in the Los Angeles County coroner’s office and could easily have known damning information about Breitbart’s death?

Cormier died suddenly from suspected arsenic poisoning last month on the same day Andrew Breitbart’s autopsy report was made public, with police considering foul play as one of the motives. Was Cormier targeted because he knew something about the strange red color of Breitbart’s skin which contradicted the autopsy report?

Despite the fact that Breitbart made it clear both publicly during a CPAC speech and privately to World Net Daily that he was set to release bombshell video on March 1 which showed President Barack Obama alongside Weather Underground terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, when the footage eventually was released it actually showed Obama embracing radical Prof. Derrick Bell.

Breitbart News Network’s Steve Bannon now denies there was any footage featuring Obama with Ayers and has slammed World Net Daily for asking questions about the bizarre circumstances surrounding Breitbart’s death.

“He died of natural causes,” Bannon said. “The family wants the matter put to rest, and WND is beginning to irritate me suspecting foul play.”

Trail of Death: Breitbart Coroner Turns Up Dead, Arsenic Poisoning Suspected (Infowars)

Trail of Death: Breitbart Coroner Turns Up Dead, Arsenic Poisoning Suspected

Patrick Henningsen
Infowars.com
April 30, 2012

Veteran Los Angeles coroner forensic technican Michael Cormier had died, apparently due to arsenic poisoning. The 61 year old Cormier was discovered dead on April 20th - the same day the city officials had released their preliminary autopsy report on the death of conservative media powerhouse Andrew Breitbart.

According to early reports, Michael Cormier was “seemingly healthy,” yet “suddenly stricken” with a fatal condition – just like Andrew Breitbart.

It’s the latest twist in the case of Andrew Breitbart’s untimely death that will surely fuel increased speculation into possible foul play - in both cases. 

The sluggish release of the Breitbart autopsy follows the unorthodox, rushed announcement by city authorities at the time of Breitbart’s death that he had died of ‘natural causes’ on March 1, 2012 at the age of 43.

The timing of Breitbart’s death came on the eve of a few highly anticipated events. Firstly, he had announced that he would be releasing rare ‘game changing’, rather damning video footage of President Obama allegedly cavorting with communist activists years earlier. Some footage was released in the days after his death, but it is not believed to be material that would change the corse of the 2012 election as Breitbart had indicated beforehand. He was also due to reveal his new Breitbart.com format, and had met only one before his death with Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse team in Phoenix in relation to Obama’s forged PDF birth certificate and forged US Selective Service registration card. 

The LA County Coroner’s office announced in their preliminary report that Breitbart had died of heart failure, and that a negligible amount of alcohol was found in his system. No prescription or illicit drugs were discovered at any point during the autopsy. The final, definitive medical explanation on Breitbart’s death has yet to be made public.

Coroner Michael Cormier’s mysterious death was first reported by KTLA TV reporter Elizabeth Espinosa explaining how city detectives were investigating a possible ‘arsenic poisoning’ in the case. This report was later picked up and reported in an LA Times Local blog:

“The sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said that finding the presence of poison does not necessarily mean the death was a homicide, because the substance could have accidentally entered his system.”

“At this point we haven’t ruled out foul play,” said Lt. Alan Hamilton of the Los Angeles Police Department. “It is one of the things being considered. We are waiting for the coroner’s results.” 

A toxicology report is expected to be released sometime between May 25th and June 1st.

WND also recounted Breitbart’s early career, by summarizing:

Matt Drudge paid tribute to his colleague and friend with a posting on the Drudge Report: “In the first decade of the DRUDGEREPORT Andrew Breitbart was a constant source of energy, passion and commitment. We shared a love of headlines, a love of the news, an excitement about what’s happening. I don’t think there was a single day during that time when we did not flash each other or laugh with each other, or challenge each other. I still see him in my mind’s eye in Venice Beach, the sunny day I met him. He was in his mid 20′s. It was all there. He had a wonderful, loving family and we all feel great sadness for them today.”

This is getting ridiculous.



From Joe Kovacs at WND:

Medical examiners in Los Angeles are investigating the possible poisoning death of one of their own officials who may have worked on the case of Andrew Breitbart, the conservative firebrand who died March 1, the same day Sheriff Joe Arpaio announced probable cause for forgery in President Obama’s birth certificate.

Breitbart’s Footage Shows Obama ‘Palling Around’ With Terrorists
Obama’s Weather Underground friends wanted Communist dictatorship set up in America

Paul Joseph Watson

Friday, March 2, 2012

The footage that Andrew Breitbart planned to release just hours after his untimely death would have proven hugely damaging to President Obama’s re-election hopes, because it shows Obama fraternizing with Weather Underground terrorists whose goal it was to set up a Communist dictatorship inside the United States.



According to former FBI agent Larry Grathwohl, who was assigned to infiltrate the Weather Underground’s Central Committee, the organization run by Bill Ayers carried out bombings targeting the Pentagon, the State Department, as well as police stations and federal buildings, in an attempt to cause the United States government to collapse and open the door for Cuban, North Vietnamese, Chinese and Russian troops to occupy the country.

Grathwohl stated that Ayers and his group planned to deal with Americans who would try to resist this takeover by “establishing re-education centers in the south-west”. Asked what he would do with those who still refused to...

It took LA a week to declare the cause of death for Whitney Houston but they knew two hours after Andrew Breitbart’s death that it was natural and they told the world as fast as they could. Andrew said he would release footage that would hurt Obama and now the alternative media gadfly is dead. It goes on and on and if that film does not get released in full I call it shenanigans.

Conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart claims to have film of US President Barack Obama during his young, radical college years. He tells the CPAC audience that he will release them during the upcoming presidential campaign to expose the president's radial roots.

CONSPIRACY: Andrew Breitbart dead at 43 (continued, updated)

Andrew Breitbart, dead at 43, was to release explosive tapes featuring Obama

COMMENTARY
OKLAHOMA CITY – Within hours of learning Davy Jones of the Monkees had died of a heart attack, my Red Dirt Report colleague Ted Smith called and told me someone else had died – fiery conservative blogger and "New Media" king Andrew Breitbart.

Learning of Breitbart's death was a real shock. Here was a guy who was just 43, a couple of years older than me, and he was dead – allegedly of “natural causes.” The guy had a wife and kids. It was all so sad. A brash voice for honesty in government and in the media had been silenced, but unlikely to be forgotten.

So, natural causes, eh? Where have we heard that one before? They are pushing the fact that he had health problem - his heart? - and that he had been walking near his Los Angeles home at around midnight when he collapsed and was pronounced dead upon arriving at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.

As I took this information in, after Smith's call, I felt a little frustrated. I was on an RV in Shawnee, Okla. interviewing Democratic/pro-life insurgent presidential candidate Randall Terry (my Norman Transcript article on Terry is here). I didn’t have immediate access to my computer and my iPhone was nearly dead. I had forgotten to charge it. I was anxious to find out more about what had happened.

Once I got back to RDR headquarters I learned more. But Andrew Breitbart?!? It just didn’t seem possible. I had just seen him in giving a passionate interview on a TV show a week or so ago. He looked well. Heart problems?

I last spoke with Breitbart in early 2010, soon after I took on my gig with Oklahoma Watchdog. He was a very cordial person but I could tell he was multi-tasking as he talked to me. He wanted me to come on as a reporter at BigGovernment.com after learning of Red Dirt Report’s exposure of that trashed ACORN office we discovered in south Oklahoma City right before the 2008 election.

Breitbart told me that I would be smart in taking on a writing job with BigGovernment.com. He told me my work would be seen and read on radio shows like Rush Limbaugh and Laura Ingraham. He was really selling me on this writing gig. It was a very tempting offer and I was very flattered that he was impressed enough by my ACORN investigative series to offer me a job. I certainly admired his work and his “Big” websites and I liked his media-savvy style. Plus, he was a fan of “1st Wave” on SiriusXM satellite radio. The guy liked good 80’s New Wave music, including the goth music "Dark Wave" show.

But, because of my new gig with Oklahoma Watchdog I decided to be loyal to that position. We exchanged an email or two but never reestablished a connection with Breitbart and I can tell why – he was constantly going and going and going. I still emailed him most of my work and I still did get some of my stuff posted on BigGovernment.com and BigJournalism.com and was pleased about that. I liked it that Breitbart recognized what other bloggers were contributing to the media landscape. He saw that Red Dirt Report, Oklahoma Watchdog and countless other keyboard warriors were trying to expose entrenched politicians, corrupt goverment officials and Alinsky-ite radicals like Obama and his "Hope and Change" shock troops. It was often hard and thankless but knowing Breitbart was out there was comforting. Plus, you knew Breitbart and his "Big" sites had it in for Obama and his agenda. Breitbart and conservative/libertarian/freethinking bloggers were largely on the same page and the "Old Media" was clearly frightened.

As we all know, Breitbart did not shy away from controversy. He spoke his mind and would defend people like James O'Keefe and the pimp/prostitute stunt. He understood what got the attention of the media and that and other "stunts" attracted attention and exposed what organizations like ACORN were really up to.

Note this interview Matt Lewis (now with The Daily Caller) did with Breitbart when he was writing for Politics Daily. This was during the period when there was a lot of hubbub about the Shirley Sherrod video and the liberal reporter JournoList scandal.

So, conveniently when Breitbart is at the top of his game, when he was working on some big, new projects, and is a conservative hero, he suddenly dies.

It immediately brought to mind the "tapes" he said he had of Obama's early years - college and political, from the sound of it - and how damaging they would be. He made these statements as he spoke last month at the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) in Washington.

Said Breitbart (via Mediaite.com): “The videos are going to come out, the narrative is going to come out, that Barack Obama met a bunch of silver ponytails in the 1980s, like Bill (Ayers) and Bernadine (Dohrn), who said one day we would have the presidency, and the rest of us slept as they plotted, and they plotted, and they plotted and they oversaw hundreds of millions of dollars in the Annenberg Challenge and they had real money, from real capitalists. Then they became communists. We got to work on that. That is a parenthesis. Barack Obama is a radical, we should not be afraid to say that! Okay? And Barack Obama was launched from Bill and Bernadine’s salon. I’ve been there.”

Breitbart got some press during his time at CPAC, telling Occupy protesters to “stop raping people” and yelling “behave yourself! Behave yourself!” like a father talking to a child. He let the Occupiers have it, screaming at them: "Filthy freaks! “You're freaks and animals!" It's a little startling to watch. He was like a mad dog. The Occupiers, at the end of the video, seemed a little startled by their encounter with Breitbart.

But Breitbart was unapologetic about being a conservative and letting others know about it. He loved individualism and despised collectivism. He saw Occupy as a bunch of spoiled kids and ineffectual liberal jerkoffs buying into the dead-end street of collectivism.

Breitbart knew he was a major target and that his enemies were numerous as he went after various liberal/left outfits like ACORN, Planned Parenthood and others. In 2010, in a Politico article, he said, "I am public enemy No. 1 or 2 to the Democratic Party, the progressive movement and the Obama administration based upon the successes my journalism has had."

I read and reviewed Breitbart's book Righteous Indignation last year. It was a great autobiography and gave an overview of his life in California, becoming a "default liberal," partying it up while a college student at Tulane, and then discovering the Internet and the Drudge Report. He would go on to help Drudge and help start up the influential Huffington Post.

Conservative radio talk-show host Sean Hannity told his listeners today that people on Twitter and blogs should refrain from spreading “conspiracy theories” about Breitbart and the nature of his death. He said he knew for a fact that Breitbart had “heart problems” and that he lived his life at “100 miles an hour.” That's one man's opinion. A lot of people out there, from reading threads and Twitter, is that folks are far more suspicious.

Hannity also featured Breitbart friend Stephen Bannon who told Hannity and his audience that "about a year ago, Andrew had some heart issues, was short of breath." As a result, they moved his office closer to his home. And that indeed may be true. Davy Jones is reported to have had a heart attack yesterday. It happens. But was this alleged heart condition that serious. Why was he out walking around at midnight. We hope all this information comes out and that the Obama tapes are not "disappeared," "destroyed" or "erased." Especially as we see the heat rising on Obama as Maricopa County, Ariz. Sheriff Joe Arpaio releases his report about Obama's eligibility and questions about his background. His report is saying Obama's birth certificate is a "computer-generated forgery." Wow!

And, at the same time, I learn of Breitbart's death while interviewing Randall Terry, the Operation Rescue founder and anti-abortion leader who hopes to defeat Obama by taking away votes either as a Democrat or independent, depending on the swing states he qualifies in. But with so much voter fraud rampant, who knows what will happen.

And, as is usually the case (think heroic OKC Police Officer Terry Yeakey or investigative reporter Gary Webb), the media reports the suicide/natural cause story. And friends are put forward to say "Oh, they were suicidal and only told me about it." Yeah, sure.

Breitbart friend Steve Bannon spoke to Hannity today and said he was aware of Breitbart's health problems: “About a year ago, Andrew had some heart issues, was short of breath.”

I still can't ignore the thought that something more sinister took place.

With so many hundreds of millions of dollars being spent to support Obama’s re-election campaign, a lot is at stake – a lot! And with Breitbart – a major target for the left – shouting it from the rooftops that he was going to be releasing these tapes? And yet the media is jumping to the conclusion that Breitbart died of natural causes before an autopsy is conducted. It's like Deborah "DC Madam" Palfrey committing "suicide" in 2008 after it was exposed that her escort service had included clients like Vice-President Dick Cheney and U.S. Sen. David Vitter (R-La.). 

I was asked to talk about Breitbart on The Alex Jones Show today. I told Jones and his massive audience that I admired Breitbart and his work and passion but that I also thought there is a chance he may have been murdered. I hated to think that, but knowing what an influential voice Breitbart had, it's hard not to think that was the case, just as U.S. Sen. Paul Wellstone (D-Minn.) was a big anti-war voice and died saying he was not going to support the upcoming invasion of Iraq.

Will we see the tapes? Maybe some? Maybe all? The timing just seems way too coincidental. Alex Jones said he found it curious that Breitbart was talking so much about the tapes. Jones said Breitbart thought he was "bulletproof." He also noted that there seems to be a "purge" of true conservative/libertarian media figures like Judge Andrew Napolitano and his excellent Freedom Watch show. Again, it's all a little curious.

“My gut is telling me they killed Andrew Breitbart,” Alex Jones said on his show today. Sadly, I agree with him.

CONSPIRACY: Andrew Breitbart dead at 43

Establishment Gadfly Andrew Breitbart Dead at 43
Kurt Nimmo
Infowars.com
March 1, 2012

Soros, Media Matters and the so-called “liberal” side of the establishment media can now breathe a sigh of relief – one of their most vexatious enemies has shuffled off the mortal coil.
Andrew Breitbart is dead at the age of 43.

He collapsed near his house in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles shortly after midnight Thursday. Breitbart had suffered heart problems a year earlier, according to his father-in-law Orson Bean. Breitbart is survived by his wife Susannah Bean Breitbart, 41, and four children.

Breitbart was responsible for a number of journalistic controversies, including the outing of New York Representative Anthony Weiner, who Twittered sexually explicit photos. He was also involved in the 2009 ACORN video scandal and released two short videos showing racist excerpts of a speech made by Shirley Sherrod at an NAACP fundraising dinner in March 2010.
He was a thorn in the side of both the Democrat and Republican establishment. Breitbart outraged dyed-in-the-wool Republicans when in 2011 he was the primary host of a party that served to "welcome" the gay group GOProud or the "homocons" to the Conservative Political Action Conference.


Will Damning Obama Footage Still Be Released After Breitbart’s Death?
Video of young Obama threatened to sink 2012 campaign

Infowars.com
Thursday, March 1, 2012

Media trailblazer Andrew Breitbart, who single-handedly declared war on the establishment left and won numerous political battles, unexpectedly died this early morning in his Los Angeles home aged 43.



Breitbart’s untimely death has shocked the media world and left some to question whether or not damning footage of Obama in his youth, which Breitbart announced he had obtained only last month, will still be released.

According to some observers, the footage threatened to sink Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign.

“I’ve got video from his college days that show you why racial division and class warfare are central to what hope and change was sold in 2008 – the videos are going to come out,” Breitbart told a crowd during a CPAC speech in February, adding that the video shows Obama meeting “a bunch of silver pony tails” like Bill and Bernardine Dohrn (Weather Underground members), who radicalized him.

Breitbart was probably best known for his role in exposing ACORN, a community-based organization with links to the Democratic Party, with the release of undercover videos showing ACORN workers advising people how to hide evidence of prostitution and commit tax evasion.
In recent years, Breitbart became known as a fearless conservative activist, confronting leftist media elites and publicly taking Obama supporters to task.

When placing Breitbart’s tragic early death in the context of the media landscape, it becomes clear that today’s news, allied with James Murdoch’s exit from the UK in the aftermath of the phone hacking scandal, will leave major gaps in the ongoing media tug of war between Rupert Murdoch and George Soros.

Writing that Breitbart was a “happy warrior” whose fight will live on, Big Hollywood carried text Breitbart recently wrote a new conclusion to his book, Righteous Indignation.
I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, and—famously—I enjoy making enemies.

Three years ago, I was mostly a behind-the-scenes guy who linked to stuff on a very popular website. I always wondered what it would be like to enter the public realm to fight for what I believe in. I’ve lost friends, perhaps dozens. But I’ve gained hundreds, thousands—who knows?—of allies. At the end of the day, I can look at myself in the mirror, and I sleep very well at night.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Andrew Breitbart’s family and friends at this difficult time.
