Accusations of Lesbian Tryst Used To Blackmail Representative From Illinois

According to a former FBI interpreter turned whistleblower, Representative Jan Schakowski was targeted by Turkish foreign agents. According to Sibel Edmonds, Rep. Schakowski is bisexual, and the Turks sent a female agent to seduce Rep. Schakowski. According to Ms Edmonds, Rep. Schakowski was added to an investigation regarding a blackmail ring originating out of Turkey. Others who were compromised, according to Ms Edmonds, include Dennis Hastert (R-IL), Bob Livingston (R-LA), Dan Burton (R-IN), Roy Blunt (R-MO), Stephen Solarz (D-NY), and Tom Lantos (D-CA, deceased).

Representative Jan Schakowski represents Illinois’ 9th district, and is married to lobbyist Robert Creamer. In 2004, Creamer was sentenced to five months in jail on charges relating to bank fraud and mishandling of money stemming from his activities as executive director of the Illinois Public Action Fund. According to Ms Edmonds, Rep Schakowski has grown children, though none are listed publicly.

According to Ms Edmonds, Rep. Schakowski is bisexual, and a female Turkish agent set out to seduce her. The foreign agent targeted Rep. Schakowski after the death of the Representative’s mother, and even attended her mother’s funeral. The two were taped in a sexual liaison, and the intent was to blackmail the Representative. According to Ms Edmonds, Schakowski was added to the investigation that was on going into this blackmail ring in 2000.

Representative Schakowski has vehemently denied that this affair took place. Her communications director Trevor Kincaid compared the original article in the American Conservative to the birther conspiracies surrounding President Barack Obama and called it a “hit piece”. The major piece of evidence against the allegations stems from the fact that Representative Schakowski’s mother passed away in 1987 and not in 2000 when she was supposedly seduced by this Turkish spy. In fact, a quick review of the newspapers in the years between 1999 and 2004 produced no article concerning the death of Ms Schakowski’s mother, and the death of the parent of a Congresswoman would have been in the news in some form.

Also, according to Ms Edmonds, the affairs took place at Rep. Schakowski’s townhouse, which never existed.

Ms Edmonds stated emphatically that she is more than willing to take a polygraph test to show the veracity of her own statements if Rep. Schakowski is willing to do so as well. Polygraphs are, according to the National Academy of Sciences, only just better than chance at getting anything accurate. They are too easily fooled. While they can be used as an interrogative tool, they are not considered accurate enough to be admitted into evidence in more than a narrow window. In other words, the challenge to have a polygraph test is rather worthless.

In the interview conducted by Phil Giraldi, Ms Edmonds was incredibly specific that the townhouse belonged to Representative Schakowski and that the affair began shortly after her mother’s funeral. However, in her reply to Rep. Schakowski’s denial, Ms Edmonds softened the language a great deal to make them far from specific. Kincaid believes that the fact that so many of the facts that were presented by Ms Edmonds were so quickly and easily destroyed through basic, public records discredits the rest of the allegations.
