FBI investigator's son linked to case
By Kevin Vaughan and Hector Gutierrez
Associated PressLITTLETON — One of the students who helped produce a 1997 video that's similar to the April 20 assault on Columbine High School is the son of the FBI's lead agent in the investigation.
The disclosure came as FBI agents sought lie-detector tests on people who were close to Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the two gunmen who stormed Columbine.
FBI agent Dwayne Fuselier, a psychologist, is one of three investigators heading the probe of the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history.
His son, 19-year-old Scott Fuselier, was one of those who helped produce the 1997 film, which has not been linked to Harris or Klebold.
In a call to the agent's home, a woman who answered the phone said, "Scott and the boys that are with that movie don't want to talk about it."
In a later call, Dwayne Fuselier, refused to comment.
"You can stop right there — nothing, goodbye," he said Thursday evening when a reporter began asking about his son's connection to the video.
The film depicts gun-toting, trench coat-wearing students moving through Columbine's halls and ends with a special-effects explosion of the school. The videotape was obtained by the syndicated television show Inside Edition. It was broadcast Wednesday.
A separate videotape, produced later by Harris and Klebold, shows gunmen shooting down a student who was harassing a classmate, according to students who've seen it.
When asked about the connection between Fuselier's son and the 1997 movie, FBI spokesman Gary Gomez said: "That's a non-issue, and I'm not going to comment on what kids are making in their video productions."
Asked whether the FBI would be concerned if the agent's son had been involved in making the video, Gomez said: "No, there would be no concern by the FBI."
Gomez said the video was a spoof on a mad scientist and had no similarities to the tape that Harris and Klebold produced, and that any inquiries about it would have to be made to Jefferson County school officials.
A student who helped in the production of the film, Brooks Brown, said the film looks "eerie" today, given what occurred at Columbine a little more than two weeks ago.
"It was a parody, done in humor," Brown said.
Brown, an underclassman when the film was made, said he had a small hand in editing it. He said it was supposed to spoof a play called "Get Smart."
On April 20, Harris, 18, and Klebold, 17, donned trench coats then stormed Columbine with guns and bombs, killing 12 students and a teacher and wounding 23 people before they took their own lives.
Among their weapons was a large propane bomb in the school's cafeteria that officials say would have severely damaged Columbine if it had detonated.
Scott Fuselier graduated from Columbine in 1997.
Brown said he is attending college out of state, where he is studying film production. The younger Fuselier could not be reached for comment.
Dwayne Fuselier, 51, is assisting Jefferson County sheriff's Capt. Dan Harris and Lt. John Kiekbusch in leading the investigation.
Fuselier is best known as one of the top negotiators in the "Freeman" standoff in Montana. He is a former member of an elite FBI squad known as the Crisis Management Unit.
Scott Fuselier is not considered a suspect in the April 20 shootings.
End article excerpt
Dwayne Fuselier is a psychologist whose history shows a study in hostage negotiations and "Stockholm Syndrome." The idea that his son, along with the characters in the play Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, made amateur movies similar to the shooting, or movies at all for that matter, tells me that it was a staged drill. Just as the Boston Marathon was a "training exercise" Columbine was meant as a training exercise for the viewing public. His studies were being continued using the viewing public as "guinea pigs" and "Placing the Stockholm Syndrome in Perspective" as they titled this article in the FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin published 7/1999.
Also, like I've mentioned in my video "Hollywood News Views & Clues (Remix)", the fact that the FBI has a bulletin posted on their website which seemingly is intended for its agents is made public is another item that they have hidden in plain sight.
