Portrait Of A Would Be ASSASSIN





With the revelation of the assassination conspiracy out of Georgia comes a flood of revelations about the conspirators. At the center of the conspiracy is Private Isaac Aguigui of Cashmere, Washington.What prosecutors have uncovered with Private Aguigui shows an ambitious young man engaged in the political process. He was a member of the Boys’ Nation delegation for Washington State. He was vocal in the local press on political issues. And he was a page at the 2008 Republican National Convention:





He was also a widower, after his pregnant wife died in Georgia. His late wife Deirdre Wetzker Aguigui died of an apparent blood clot in July of 2011. However, for Mr Aguigui it was a heavy payday, with him a half-million dollar beneficiary from her death. It was this windfall which was funding the conspirators efforts, enabling them to buy $87,000 worth of firearms and bomb making material, as well as purchasing land for a base of operations according to prosecutors.



The conspirators plans read like a plot out of a James Bond movie. Poisoning fruit crops, blowing up dams, assassinating the president, they had the technical know-how and material to do it according to prosecutors. When Private Aguigui began his stockpiling of weapons, the gun store owner reported it to police, which told the owner that Aguigui was not doing anything illegal, and could not do anything about it.



What could drive this man to engage in such an action? Did the death of his wife drive him over the edge? Does he have a mental disorder? Or was he fed a steady diet of right-wing lies and distortions until he could no longer engage in critical thinking? We only have questions to ask, and few answers.
