Ed Steele’s ‘Intended Victims’ Thwart Accuser’s Release

It was four days after both Steele and Fairfax had been jailed that Cyndi Steele, en route to the federal courthouse for her husband’s arraignment, stopped for an oil change in Coeur d’Alene, where employees at a lube station discovered the pipe bomb. “If she had gone straight to the courthouse instead, the telescopes and mirrors at the parking lot would have discovered the bomb, and Cyndi Steele would be in jail right now,” her attorney told this AMERICAN FREE PRESS writer by telephone.

In testimony during a detention hearing for Fairfax in June, it was revealed that Fairfax was the alleged hit man, and that he had cooperated as an informant who told authorities about Mr. Steele’s alleged murder-for-hire plot. FBI agents testified that Fairfax wore a hidden recording device in meetings with Steele.

Steele maintains his innocence, saying that none of this plotting ever actually happened and the recordings have been created through hi-tech manipulations that have him “saying” threatening words spoken by what sounds like him. This writer has interviewed current officers and former agents who have confirmed that not only does this science exist, but that the FBI has used it in the past.

From the point of view of Mrs. Steele’s legal counsel, for any new plea agreement to be acceptable to her, the FBI must first identify and arrest the unknown accomplice before the Oct. 7 hearing.
