The End of Conspiracy

A few years later, a British police investigation—“Operation Paget”—and a follow-on UK inquest would re-examine the crash. The British police report, released in 2006, ruled Diana’s death a “tragic accident.” The inquest’s jury ruled on April 7, 2008 that Diana and Al-Fayed were the victims of an “unlawful killing” by Henri Paul and the paparazzi. The inquest also declared that Paul was drunk. Sad findings, but no conspiracy.

Significantly, the inquest completely discredited John MacNamara, as he was forced to admit under oath he had no evidence of a conspiracy. On February 14, 2008, he specifically admitted he had no evidence of the involvement of the British nor the French security services, nor the British ambassador to Paris, nor Prince Philip the Duke of Edinburgh, in a plot to kill the couple. All contrary to his earlier pronouncements.

Mohamed Al-Fayed said on April 7, 2008, he would accept the inquest’s verdict and abandon his years-long campaign to prove Diana and Dodi were murdered in a conspiracy.

In November 2008, the National Security Agency (NSA) disclosed, in response to a Freedom of Information Act request, that it was holding 1,056 pages of information about Princess Diana. The press reported the NSA intercepts “had gone on right until she died in the Paris car crash with Dodi Fayed.” The press reporting also quoted an intelligence official describing the collection of her conversations as “incidental,” implying she was not the target of their collection. This disclosure stirred up a storm in the London media but went largely unnoticed in the American press. Such “incidental collection” years later would become an issue in the USA in the aftermath of the ugly Russian collusion narrative.

I am persuaded it is highly likely, as Mohamed Al-Fayed still maintains, that Dodi Al-Fayed and Princess Diana were planning to marry. There is more than the engagement ring. Diana’s divorce had become final; she was now free to marry. She was high-maintenance and Dodi was certainly someone who could maintain her in the style to which she was accustomed. Then there is Villa Windsor. What an opportunity to “poke a finger in the eye” of the Royal Family: to take up residence in the former home of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor would be Diana’s sweetest revenge on the Royal Family who treated her so shabbily.

But it ended in a traffic accident. Just as I was told in an early morning phone call with the French Police on the last day of August in 1997.
