Stop NC Torture Taxis

Oct. 26, 2006 - Oct 24 Raleigh N&O: Book ties Johnston firm to CIA activity - arrests may follow

The mainstream media is now covering the dark shameful secret -

 

Sleepy small town airports in North Carolina ARE being used to shuttle "prisoners" off to foreign countires to be tortured.

 

There may be arrest warrants issued to some Johnson County pilot over the most high-profile cases of alleged rendition, involving Khaled El-Masri, a former German car salesman and father of five.

 

Book ties Johnston firm to CIA activity
A journalist claims the air charter company transported terrorism suspects to other countries for interrogation

 

 

Aero Contractors, a private air charter company based in Johnston County, became the "home of CIA aviation," moving suspected terrorists to countries where they could be more harshly interrogated, according to a new book by freelance journalist Stephen Grey.

But Grey, the author of "Ghost Plane: The True Story of the CIA Torture Program," is convinced that publicity about the program and Aero's involvement has forced the charter company to scale back its role....

 

...

Of about 22 planes the book describes as being part of the CIA's fleet, 10 to 15 were based at Aero, Grey said in an interview. The book includes flight plans of two planes in particular, a Gulfstream V and a 737 Boeing Business Jet. The Gulfstream V made frequent stops in Johnston County, where Aero continues to operate.
