New DNA evidence proves the driver of Diana's car was drunk on the night of her fatal crash in a Paris underpass in 1997, British Broadcasting Corp. said Saturday.(Emphasis added.)
The tests confirm that original post-mortem blood samples were from driver Henri Paul and that he had three times the French legal limit of alcohol in his blood, the BBC said, quoting from a documentary it will screen Sunday.
Conspiracy theorists have claimed Paul was not drinking that night, contending the blood samples were swapped with blood from someone else who was drunk.
The BBC said a source with access to the French investigation reported that within the past year, French officials took a DNA profile from Paul's blood samples and matched it with his parents' DNA. It did not identify the source.
We have here not a single word about the reason why those awful, awful conspiracy theorists argue in favor of a sample swap. Not a single word about the insanely high levels of CO (carbon monoxide) found in the blood that allegedly came from Henry Paul's corpse. Those CO levels did not appear in the blood samples taken from other occupants of the vehicle.
Obviously, the admixture of CO and alcohol suggests that the blood originated with a suicide victim -- someone who killed himself in his car, using the venerable hose-in-the-tailpipe method. There were 24 other bodies in the mortuary that night, and the French authorities -- for reasons best known to themselves -- have always refused to divulge whether any of those people had died of carbon dioxide inhalation.
Just as obviously, if the blood samples were swapped in 1997, the DNA samples could have been swapped nine years later. The current tests prove nothing.
Years ago, a friend sent me a video from Britain. The program was a round-table discussion of the various theories to arise from Diana's death, and one of the participants was spook-friendly MP Rupert Allason, who writes under the name Nigel West. If I recall correctly, "Nigel" informed viewers that the CO mystery was "just one of those things."
You know. Like JFK's backward head-snap was "just one of those things."
Every time you see a news story about Diana's driver which does not contain the terms "CO" or "carbon monoxide" -- every time a "journalist" refuses to acknowledge that the controversy even exists -- you may safely presume yourself to be in the presence of propaganda.

Mmmm ... and here I thought it was CO, aka carbon MONoxide, that comes out of tailpipes.
To say that you have shamed me understates the situation. I cannot allow myself to bat out these posts while angry. Yes, Paul had carbon monoxide in his blood. Allegedly. That, at least, is what any number of web sites say.
The amount of CO in his blood would have rendered him incapable of driving and probably even incapable of walking.
I have rewritten the post. As punishment for this error, I am now going to a fast food restaurant and will order something I can't stand.
Oh sheesh, Joe ... don't go that far!
Jeff Wells over at RI has an interesting piece on Di, also. And the comments are, as always, enlightening. There is, obviously, far more to this than a car wreck.
Hell, the French are still hiding the facts about Jim Morrison's death. Don't expect any help from them.
This was my personal favorite news item.... Is it no wonder they were being trailed and tapped ??

On leaving the Ritz, Dodi was heard to shout: “I’m going to the Kennedy building, join me there.”
Dodi was in contact with a number of people on the night, including arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi. The tycoon, now 71 and living in the tax haven of Monaco, was one of the first business partners of Dodi’s father, Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed.
Mr Gillery believes Dodi was taking instructions on the night from a Saudi businessman.
Mr Gillery said: “The aim of the meeting remains a mystery to this day, but I believe nonetheless that it was linked to transactions in the spheres of arms and petrol.”
Mr Gillery also concedes that there is every possibility that the meeting was never due to take place, and it was solely a pretext to lure Dodi into a trap.

Bottom line: a drunk driver was driving 60-90 mph in a 30 mph zone and crashed into a barrier. End of discussion. No assassin on a grassy knoll, no Prince Philip hit squad, no alien abductions.
The late Quentin Crisp spoke truthfully, if bluntly, that Princess Diana's fast and shallow lifestyle contributed to her own demise: "She could have been Queen of England -- and she was swanning about Paris with Arabs. What disgraceful behavior. Going about saying she wanted to be the queen of hearts. The vulgarity of it is so overpowering." (Atlanta Southern Voice, 1 July 1999).
Or to put it more kindly, both Diana and her brother, Charles Spencer, probably suffered from borderline personality disorder (BPD), rooted in their mother's abandonment of them when they were young children. For Charles Spencer, BPD expressed itself as insatiable sexual promiscuity (his wife was divorcing him at the time of Diana's death). For Diana, BPD expressed itself as intense insecurity and an insatiable need for attention and affection (which even the best husband could never have fulfilled). These sowed the seeds of her fast lifestyle and her tragic fate.
