Murders and Lies, Our Tax Dollars Hard at Work

CIA Accused of Lying over Agency’s Role in Downing of Plane in Peru in 2001

An internal CIA investigation has determined agency officials lied to members of Congress and withheld crucial information about the CIA’s role in the downing of a civilian plane in Peru in 2001. An American missionary and her infant daughter died when a Peruvian military jet shot down their plane after a CIA surveillance aircraft had mistakenly identified their plane as a drug-smuggling aircraft.

Here is a Salon.com article from 2001 about the shooting down of the plane.
