WASHINGTON — The FBI is investigating the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery, and a law enforcement official told The Associated Press the word 'fed" was scrawled on the dead man's chest.

The body of Bill Sparkman, a 51-year-old part-time Census field worker and occasional teacher, was found Sept. 12 in a remote patch of the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky. The Census has suspended door-to-door interviews in rural Clay County, where the body was found, pending the outcome of the investigation.

Investigators are still trying to determine whether the death was a killing or a suicide, and if a killing, whether the motive was related to his government job or to anti-government sentiment.

Investigators have said little about the case. The law enforcement official, who was not authorized to discuss the case and requested anonymity, said Wednesday the man was found hanging from a tree and the word "fed" was written on the dead man's chest. The official did not say what type of instrument was used to write the word.

FBI spokesman David Beyer said the bureau is helping state police with the case.

"Our job is to determine if there was foul play involved — and that's part of the investigation — and if there was foul play involved, whether that is related to his employment as a census worker," said Beyer.

Beyer declined to confirm or discuss any details about the crime scene.

Lucindia Scurry-Johnson, assistant director of the Census Bureau's southern office in Charlotte, N.C., said law enforcement officers have told the agency the matter is "an apparent homicide" but nothing else.

Census employees were told Sparkman's truck was found nearby, and a computer he was using for work was found inside it, she said. He worked part-time for the Census, usually conducting interviews once or twice a month.

Sparkman has worked for the Census since 2003, spanning five counties in the surrounding area. Much of his recent work had been in Clay County, officials said.

Door-to-door operations have been suspended in Clay County pending a resolution of the investigation, Scurry-Johnson said.

The U.S. Census Bureau is overseen by the Commerce Department.

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of our co-worker," Commerce Secretary Gary Locke said in a statement. "Our thoughts and prayers are with William Sparkman's son, other family and friends."

Locke called him "a shining example of the hardworking men and women employed by the Census Bureau."

Oh holy shit. They are trying to make anybody who doesn't trust the govt as a potential murderer... phucking unbelievable. All they need do is have a rash of these acxross the country, and it could be damaging, especially if the spin masters take up arms and blast it away on air.

People are going to start fighting back one way or another and there will be 'false flag'/cointel ops--we are so deep there is no turning back and the only thing left is going to be to fight anyway you can or die.

America is creating its own Palestine within its borders.

This hard-working man worked once or twice a month??? That is your shining example of a hard working man?  And what kind of job only sends you out once or twice a month?

Just wait until these guys are coming by to scan your family to make sure all RFID devices are working and not tampered with.

Everyone of these census takers are helping paint crosshairs on your front step with gps coords and collecting personal data so DHS can estimate how many people to round up in your area--not to mention how acorn/other groups can continue and expand election fraud.

[RoadRunner]

The following is a fake quote from the FBI "We have come to the conclusion that the murder was done by an anti-government radical, these findings prove that some individuals are dangerous... and that is all that the findings prove. Some people may jump to the conclusion that all people who share anti-government beliefs are murderers, but there is no evidence to back this claim. Infact we should be very careful not to stereotype large groups of people and pre-emptively charge them as guilty, especially when you consider that our Law of the land is very strictly "Innocent until proven Guilty""

Imagine if they came out with a statement like that... it would be a free country again.

But instead we'll have the Patriot Act (Internal Version) to monitor us all.

I'm 100% against this crime, don't get me wrong. Just because the guy worked for a Government agency doesn't mean for one second he's not a moral and decent person. Whistleblowers in Government have probably exposed more corruption than almost any group of people.

And hell, even if the guy was corrupt to the core, I must, in any case insist that any 'patriot' stick to the concept of a 'Fair trial by a jury of peers'.

For if a 'patriot' movement was to start using the tactics of tyrants and murders - in the end, they will just be a different bunch of tyrants and murders in control.

Bachmann: Census Could Send People to Camps

Friday, June 26, 2009 8:36 PM

By: Rick Pedraza    Article Font Size 

Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., says Americans should refuse to comply with the Obama administration�s 2010 census because the data could be used for nefarious purposes, including the imprisonment of Americans in internment camps.

Appearing on Fox News, Bachmann said it was the census that allowed the internment of the Japanese during World War II. She also boasted about breaking the law in refusing to complete the census form she received.

�If we look at American history -- between 1942 and 1947 -- the data that was collected by the Census Bureau was handed over to the FBI and other organizations at the request of President Roosevelt,� Bachmann said.

�That�s how the Japanese were rounded up and put into the internment camps. I�m not saying that�s what the administration is planning to do. But I am saying that private, personal information that was given to the Census Bureau in the 1940s was used against Americans to round them up.�

Bachmann said she was shocked that the census would ask for people�s telephone numbers. Although not required by law, the numbers are used only to contact recipients who have incomplete forms.

Bachmann also doesn�t like the fact the census asks about one�s age, race, and the type of home one lives in. According to the Census Bureau, questions on race have been asked since 1790; home language since 1890; rent since 1880; and income since 1940. The Census Bureau has asked what kind of heating fuel heats Americans� homes since 1940.

Yep and this seems related doesn't it? Like they will say tea parties or truthers are terrorists.

[911aware]

i posted over a year ago when i got the census form.  i was shocked at the questions on it.  i feel very sorry for that man, but in the kentucky backwoods asking questions that i have seen on the form, it was bound to happen at some point.

i pray for his family and loved ones.

I think one thing we have to look at is, when CIA, FBI, "Fed", is killed as to which side of the "fence" their on. I have a sneaking suspicion that more on "our" side of the fence are not with us.

He held down multiple jobs...

And why is that a problem for you? He doesn't work any jobs now, he's dead. Cannon fodder for a psy-op.

It won't matter if this homicide isn't related to his employment as a census worker because the psy-op is already in play and all those bastards had to do was carve "FED" into that innocent man's chest and sacrifice him.

[carlee]

A human has been murdered and you guys are making cracks about the guy.  NO ONE deserves this kind of death 

[mr anderson]

No one around here celebrates human death.  Of course it is tragic and sad. 

Every day people get blown up, die in prison for ridiculous charges, die in cluster bombs, die from disease that could be prevented... its all very sad ...
I simply mocked the absurd eulogy offered up by the census bureau that this was a hard working man when they only saw fit to employ him 2 days a month.  If anyone is to be blamed for his death it is the very govt that sews the seeds of discontent with their behaviors while sending a guy like this into potentially hostile situations to ask people intrusive questions in the backwoods.  Why exactly is a census necessary anyhow? And if it is necessary why do they need to ask so many questions, don't they know people want privacy.

Ultimately the media will spin this into a rationale for more fascist practices.  How any hero member can post a link to a blatantly propagandistic news story from the MSM about what a horrific tragedy this is, when all the things in the world going on right now are equally or more tragic, is beyond my comprehension.

The Custodial Detention Index (CDI) was based on a massive list of U.S. residents compiled by the FBI during 1939-1941, in the frame of a program called variously "Custodial Detention" and/or "Alien Enemy Control".

The Custodial Detention Index was a list of suspects and potential subversives, classified as "A", "B" and "C"; the ones classified as "A" were destined to be immediately arrested and interned at the outbreak of war. Category A were leaders of Axis-related organizations, category B were members deemed "less dangerous" and category C were sympathizers. The actual assignment of the categories was, however, based on the perceived individual commitment to the person's native country, rather than the actual potential to cause harm; leaders of cultural organizations could be classified as "A", members of non-political cultural organizations could be rated "B" and "C" could be the individuals who donated to or expressed support for pro-Nazi and pro-Fascist organizations.

The program involved creation of individual dossiers from secretly obtained information, including unsubstantiated data and in some cases, even hearsay and unsolicited phone tips, and information acquired without judicial warrants by mail covers and interception of mail, wiretaps and covert searches. While the program targeted primarily Japanese, Italian, and German "enemy aliens", it also included some American citizens. The program was run without Congress-approved legal authority, no judicial oversight and outside of the official legal boundaries of the FBI. A person against which an accusation was made was investigated and eventually placed on the index; it was not removed until the person died. Getting on the list was easy; getting off of it was virtually impossible.

According to the press releases at the beginning of the war, one of the purposes of the program was to demonstrate the diligence and vigilance of the government by following, arresting and isolating a previously identified group of people with allegedly documented sympathies for Axis powers and potential for espionage or fifth column activities. The list was later used for Japanese American internment.

Attorney General Francis Biddle, when he found out about the Index, labeled it "dangerous, illegal" and ordered its end. However, J. Edgar Hoover simply renamed it the Security Index. The Security Index itself was merged together with the Agitator Index and the Communist Index, (itself renamed to the Reserve Index in 1960), to the Administrative Index (ADEX) in 1971, and discontinued in 1978, though the records are still kept as inactive at FBI headquarters and 29 field offices.

FBI Looking for “Anti-government” Perp in Death of Census Worker

http://www.infowars.com/fbi-looking-for-anti-government-perp-in-death-of-census-worker/

Ed O’Keefe
The Washington Post
September 24, 2009

Editor’s note: The AP reported earlier that the FBI is investigating whether he was a victim of anti-government sentiment.

A part-time Census Bureau field worker was found hanged in Kentucky Sept. 12 with the word “fed” scrawled across his chest, according to a law enforcement source. Bill Sparkman, 51, who was white, was found at the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky, the Associated Press first reported Wednesday night.

The FBI is assisting state and local police with their investigation, the law enforcement source told The Post’s Spencer S. Hsu. The source was unsure of the cause of death.

It is a federal crime to attack a federal worker during or because of his federal job.

“It’s a tragedy. Our hearts and our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of this worker,” Office of Personnel Management Director John Berry said Thursday morning. He has spoken frequently about the denigration of federal employees.

“I’m going to be closely following this law enforcement action. If this is an attack on a federal employee, I can assure you that no resources will be spared to find the perpetrators,” Berry said. “We cannot tolerate essentially domestic terrorism, if that is what this is. But until we understand the law enforcement investigation, we don’t know.”

I wouldn't be surprised if this murder was just a black op to demonize any government dissent.

This is the angle my wife and I were discussing when we first heard about it. It may be possible that this man was a patriot who was monkeying with their system...Perhaps intentionally feeding false information and messing up the gps coordinates. I had thought of taking one of the census jobs myself just to mess up their information gathering in this manner. The ptb take care of the dissenter and make it appear as though it was an attack perpetrated by some anti-government nut-job...i.e. truther, birther, 10ther, or whatever clever little psyop word they are using this week.
I do not believe that any real patriot would do something like this. It is one thing to defend yourself from tyranny...It is quite another to commit murder to make a statement.
I smell conspiracy in this one. I am sorry for this man an his family and I hope they get the justice they deserve.

You know, the guy could have stumbled upon another man's illegal means of income and paid the price, or it could have been a deliverance thing, but the way it is being spun in the media is he was killed by ANTI-GOVT DOMESTIC TERRORISTS. To me, that is the most logical of the 3, another reason to crack down on any type of dissent and demonize anyone who disagrees with the party line.

[wolfman86]

Could be staged but I would have expected them to find the body sooner. Or, they could have found some guy that was murdered and scrawled "Fed" on his chest after the fact.

Obviously no one (except the government) wants stuff like this to happen but I am a little surprised more of this hasn't happened already.

Media, Bloggers Frame Murder of Census Worker as “Rightwing” Political Crime

http://www.infowars.com/media-bloggers-frame-murder-of-census-worker-as-rightwing-political-crime/

Kurt Nimmo
Infowars

It looks like another government psyop designed to discredit and demonize those opposed to the increasing tyranny of the federal government — a census worker was found hanging from a tree in Kentucky with “fed” scrawled on his chest two weeks ago.

On the other hand, it might be the work of a lone psycho killer. But it does not matter. Because the corporate media — hours after news of the incident appeared — is using the tragic event to crank up the propaganda machine and demonize millions of people who support the Tea Party and End the Fed movements.

Either way, the FBI has suggested the crime was politically motivated. AP reporter Devlin Barrett, appearing on “The Rachel Maddow Show” Wednesday, said he did not believe the FBI would be involved if the case weren’t being investigated as a politically motivated murder, Politics Daily reports.

“There are always people who have some sort of paranoia about the federal government and the census, but things might be worse this time around,” writes Alex Koppelman for Salon. “There’s been a lot of talk on the right about the connection (always very tenuous, and now severed) between the census and ACORN, a group that’s been conservatives’ favorite bogeyman of late. And Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., has been spreading her own fears about the census, at one point even suggesting a link between the census and Japanese internment during World War II — a frightening parallel for modern conspiracy theorists who fear that the government is setting up similar camps for them now.”

Meanwhile, over at Gawker, Andrew Belonsky blames the opposition directly. “We know that the levels of right-wing vitriol have reached psychotic new heights. But could they really be behind the ‘apparent homicide’ of a Kentucky census worker, William Sparkman? Should we be calling this, as some are, a ‘lynching?’… Sadly, that appears to be the case. And, if this was in fact murder, the death would seem to be targeted — ‘fed’ was, after all, carved into the man’s chest — and some are calling this a modern day lynching.”

An editorial in the New York Magazine tells us Nancy Pelosi’s “fear of political violence” has been realized. “In addition to this specific case of census-related fearmongering, you can add in the conspiracy theories about FEMA internment camps, long a mainstay of the Internet but recently stoked anew by the likes of conservative website World Net Daily and radio host Michael Savage. Then throw in everyone comparing Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and health-care reform to Hitler and Nazi Germany — like Rush Limbaugh, to take but one example. And death panels, and socialism, and birth certificates, and ‘trampling on the Constitution.’ It’s this toxic stew of fear and anger and paranoia that Nancy Pelosi recently worried could compel someone to lash out. ‘I saw this myself in the late seventies in San Francisco. This kind of rhetoric was very frightening and it gave — it created a climate in which violence took place,’ she warned,” states the op-ed.

The so-called liberal media has engaged in a concerted effort to portray the patriot and constitutionalist movements as “rightwing” terrorism, beginning with the murder of police in Pittsburgh earlier this year by a man the corporate media and foundation bloggers tried to link to Alex Jones. The media continued its effort after a deranged white supremacist allegedly killed a guard at a Holocaust museum. The suspect, James Von Brunn, was characterized as a “birther” and member of the patriot movement. Glenn Beck went so far as to declare Von Brunn was a “hero” of the truth movement. The hysteria reached a fevered pitch in August when Obama attempted to sell his health care plan.

The corporate media went into hyper-drive after Chris Broughton, an Arizona patriot, brought a carbine to an Obama event. Arizona has an open carry law. The media attempted to link Broughton to a supposed “militia” group. Infowars noted at the time that the group was not an organized militia. The media connected Ernest Hancock to the phantom militia. Hancock, an online radio host, is said to have designed the famous “Ron Paul rEVOLution” graphic. By mentioning this, the corporate media conflated Ron Paul with fictional domestic terrorists.

The government is sincerely concerned about the growing patriot movement, in particular the end the Federal Reserve and the Tenth Amendment movements.

As of this writing, there is little evidence indicating the census worker in Kentucky was the victim of a psychological operation designed to demonize the patriot movement. However, it is sincerely odd the man was murdered 24 days ago at exactly the same time the massive Tea Party demo in Washington was taking place.
