To all concerned Americans,
For the record, I have been following the Edgar Steele fiasco since he was
arrested on June 11, 2010 and kidnapped from his home in Sagle, Idaho.
For a mainstream canned report, here is a link -

Although I had a flurry of other activities I was committed to at the time,
I managed to visit with his wife, Cyndi Steele, for two hours on June 21. I
wrote Edgar Steele a letter on July 1, 2010 requesting that he call me
collect. That never happened, nor the anticipated visit since I was told
that he was allowed only one visitor a week and it is a big trip to make
only to be turned down. Since I had another appointment in Spokane on July
7, I went to the Spokane County Jail and was told that he was in the custody
of the U.S. Marshals, was not allowed visitors and could not even make a
collect call. At this point I was concerned that he never received my
letter. On the following day I heard from a friend who lives in Spokane and
has tried diligently to visit Edgar Steele. When she went to the jail on
July 8, she was told that he had been moved 30 min. ago to an undisclosed
location. And then I received the following letter today, July 9. Following
this letter is a letter I am sending to our Idaho state representatives that
represent the people in the District where Edgar and Cyndi Steele once
lived. Cyndi is so traumatized by this ordeal that she is no longer living
in her home, and is in a safe house with friends -- the Steele's former home
is in shambles from the raid with floor boards and walls ripped apart... and
many of their valuables stolen.
*Dear Ingri,
Thank you for your letter.
All calls out are almost non-existent. I was looking forward to seeing you
and Al yesterday. I suppose they just turned you away? I haven't had a
single visitor here so far and only barely been allowed to see my public
defender. I'm not allowed to call my lawyer even until next week.
I am in Max Security, full lockdown, solitary confinement. Worse even than
the treatment accorded Matt Hale. Most of mail is returned to senders -
usually because of their using letters instead of full first and last names
in the review in the return address.
OK. I am innocent, for what that is worth in Amerika today. Here is what
happened:
My hillbilly handyman stumbled across a stash of silver bullion in one of my
outbuildings - then searched and found two others (@ $15,000 & $45,000
total). Knowing I would discover the theft & know it was him. He tried to
kill me with two pipe bombs he placed on the cars he knew I drove. They both
failed to go off. Cyndi left town with one before he removed it, which led
to the discovery of the car bomb on our Mitsubishi SUV.
This guy had offered to be a hit man before, more than once, but I dismissed
him as a harmless buffoon. I had told him of the ADL & its hatred for me.
This murder-for-hire plot is beyond my hillbilly hitman, so I assume he went
to the ADL, which either fabricated tapes that he played for the FBI
recorder or produced a mimic of me to make the tapes for the FBI on the
spot. Regardless, I have been framed and set-up! BTW, the ADL was quoted
extensively in the government's opening papers in court.
I haven't heard from my wife or son and fear they have been convinced by the
U.S. Attorney Prosecutor of my guilt. I feel totally abandoned. What can you
and others do? Ingri, I honestly don't know. Obviously, this is going to
trial. I may well be convicted, which will be the same as a death sentence
at this stage of my life. I am So depressed. I never expected them to come
after me like this.
You may share this with others, even posting it on UNN and SF (With my
address so they can write me - please write me - but tell them to put their
full names and addresses [as a clear return address] on the envelopes).
[Note: at this time, we do not know his whereabouts. His address is/was -
from the return on my envelope from him - Edgar Steele #361857 , Spokane
County Jail, W. 1100 Mallon, Spokane, Wash. 99260-0320]
Love, Edgar * [I frequently sign my name with friends - both sexes-
with "Love, Ingri". He responded in kind...]
Following is the letter I sent out to Ed and Cyndi Steele's Idaho state
senator and representatives:
Dear Senator Keough, Representative Eskridge and Representative Eric
Anderson,
On June 11, 2010, a resident of Sagle, Idaho for 20 years was arrested by
Idaho State Police and an agent of the FBI with the assistance of a Bonner
County deputy. Edgar is well-known as a defender of politically unpopular
opinion, acting as a pro-bono attorney for the politically incorrect and a
man who admittedly pushes the limits of free speech. He was preparing to go
to Spokane on June 11 with a trailer to pick up some lumber for a building
project and had asked his friend Allen Banks to join him on the drive into
Spokane as he has recently been in very poor health. When Dr. Banks arrived
at Edgar's home, he was barred access to the house by Idaho State Police
officers but could hear talking from inside prior to Edgar emerging from the
house in handcuffs and being placed in the back of one of the ISP vehicles
and driven away. He later witnessed eleven cars carrying agents of the FBI
at the house, conducting a search, removing precious metals and other
personal items. Allen had no idea what was going on other than an FBI agent
coming out of the house momentarily, at the time of Edgar's arrest, to
declare that he had all he needed on tape and that he was convinced of
Edgar's guilt.
On that same day, *The Idaho Statesman *and *Coeur d'Alene Press* printed
stories vilifying Edgar's character and claiming that he had hired his
handyman to kill his wife and mother-in-law. These stories continued for the
following days claiming that the handyman decided to reveal the plot to the
FBI on the previous Wednesday before any harm could be done. There are a
number of holes in this story which any child could describe. For example,
the "handyman", Larry Fairfax, has been a federal drug informant in this
area for many years. His prior membership in Aryan Nations suggests that he
was a federal informant during those years. Based upon his history it is not
unreasonable to assume that he is still a paid federal informant placed at
the Steele household to defame this politically unpopular Sagle resident.
The claim that Edgar wanted the life insurance money from the death of his
wife also doesn't hold up - enough personal wealth was removed from the
Steele residence by the FBI that the life insurance policy angle does not
seem believable. Strangely, when the informant handyman "came clean" he
failed to mention the pipe bombs he had placed on the Steele vehicles. These
were later discovered during a routine oil change. The story and the details
of the "plot" so far revealed are bizarre enough that many believe the case
to be a complete fabrication, not unlike those fabricated by the Soviet era
thugs of the KGB. If such a story can be fabricated to destroy a politically
incorrect resident of Sagle, what can these same federal police officials
concoct to destroy one of us? There are so many problems with this story
that many of us have grave concerns for our safety as Idaho and Bonner
County residents.
While first confined at the Kootenai County Jail, Edgar, an Idaho resident,
is now held in another state - Washington. I went to the Spokane County Jail
on Wednesday to visit Edgar Steele. The woman at the desk told me that he is
not allowed ANY visitors other than his attorney, he cannot make collect
phone calls, and he is in custody of the U.S. Marshal Service. However, when
I called the U.S. Marshal office in Spokane, I was told that Edgar is not in
their system. I was referred to the FBI which only was available as a
recording. I left a message on a recorder. Another friend went to the
Spokane County Jail on Thursday (7-8-10) and was told that he had been moved
a half hour earlier to an undisclosed location. This is beginning to
resemble the George Hansen case where Idaho Congressman George Hansen was
kept for nearly two years without trial, moved from one federal detention
facility to another just ahead of his friends who were frantically trying to
locate him so they could obtain his release. His crime? Allegedly he was
being held without trial for errantly filing some congressional disclosure
forms. His real crime? Asking for a congressional investigation of the IRS.
Edgar's wife, Cyndi Steele, and his children, Nicole, Rex and Kelsey, are
not allowed any communication with him. Cyndi is not living in their home
anymore - too traumatic to live in a home that has been left ripped up
(floor boards/walls) after the removal of valuables and other personal
belongings. She is in shock trying to avoid the media circus and has been
unavailable except to close friends. I happened to arrange a meeting with
her for two hours on June 21 after she had watched two of three video/audio
tapes. Apparently Edgar had been videotaped over a nearly six month period,
with agents invading her property while she lived and slept there, without
her knowledge. What she shared with me in detail makes me more convinced
than ever of this man's innocence. You see, my late husband and I had been
at social gatherings with Edgar and Cindy and had been in their home on
several occasions, both of us considering Edgar and Cindy to be our friends.
Not only that but at least an investigator working on this case, Tim
Schwering of the Federal Public Defenders Office has also noted that there
is something terribly wrong about this case. Please feel free to call me. I
am deeply concerned and need to know what you can do to intervene to make
sure that Edgar is safe, protected and that his right to due process is
restored.
With Deep Concern for our Country and the frightful direction this case
indicates,
Ingri Cassel

P.S. Dr. Allen Banks is a well-respected man of our community that is
on the board of the Panhandle Health District (at least "was" for many
years...) and is the treasurer of our local Bonner County Republican
Central Committee.
