April Gallop, a very popular "witness" for CIT, has gained some more popularity around truther land due to her latest law suit against Dick Cheney &
others.
There was a discussion
here. In addition there was a continued discussion
here.
In the second thread I apologized for accusing Ms. Gallop for taking money from American Airlines. This was because I didn't have proof, and thought
Ms. Gallop was getting ignored in her quest to receive compensation for her and her son's injuries sustained at the Pentagon on 911.
Today, I am taking back my apology.
I have received a copy of the NOTICE OF MOTION that shows on December 6, 2007 April Gallop and her son received a settlement from American Airlines
Inc, AMR Corporation, and Argenbright Security INC.
The amount of the settlement was not disclosed in this document.
This is very interesting due to the most current lawsuit Ms. Gallop has started against Dick Cheney and others regarding the attack on the Pentagon on
911. Part of the
"Statement of Facts" Ms. Gallop, via her attorney, lists on her current lawsuit, states this:
III. The Attack on the Pentagon.
33. At the Pentagon, the plaintiff was at her desk, with her baby, in her office on the first floor, when large explosions occurred, walls crumbled
and the ceiling fell in. Although her desk is just some forty feet from the supposed impact point, and she went out through the blown-open front of
the building afterwards, she never saw any sign that an airliner crashed through. If Flight 77, or a substitute, did swoop low over the building,
to create the false impression of a suicide attack, it was then flown away by its pilot, or remote control, and apparently crashed someplace else.
At the building, inside or outside of the wall the plane supposedly hit, there was no wreckage, no airplane fragments, no engines, no seats, no
luggage, no fuselage sections with rows of windows, and especially, no blazing quantities of burning jet fuel. The interior walls and ceilings and
contents in that area were destroyed, but there was no sign of a crashed airplane. A number of those present inside the building and out have attested
to this fact in published reports.

*emphasis mine
Ms. Gallop settled out of court with American Airlines, yet in this most current lawsuit, claims that the plane didn't crash there but somewhere
else.
I was thinking someone will come out with the old "but she just learned of this evidence" reasoning. Craig Ranke interviewed her back in April.
Prior to her receiving the settlement from American Airlines.
Craig Ranke states in his OP that Ms. Gallop was being neglected by the government.
Well, we know that is not entirely true. The government was giving average settlements of $600,000 per injury at the
Pentagon.

I am not privileged to know what Ms. Gallop and her son were offered from the Victims Compensation Fund, but going by the average, they would have
received 1.2 million dollars. Remember this is the average. Keep in mind that medical needs would have had to have been considered prior to the
Gallop's receiving such funds. Ms. Gallop refused said compensation and decided to go forth on her own.
More Lawsuits
In addition to her settlement with A.A etc. Ms. Gallop has attempted 3 other lawsuits. (the most current vs. Cheney is the 5th)

Gallop v. Riggs National Corporation et al
*Information obtained by:
pacer.psc.uscourts.gov...
*You will need to file for a registration by mail and there is a fee for each page of information requested.
* 1:2021mc00097 is the consolidated litigation for those who wanted to sue rather than accept payments from the Compensation Fund.
When it got down to about only 10 or 11 remaining personal injury claims, that docket was closed and the remaining few plaintiffs were added to the
companion litigation regarding property damage. I don't know if she was one of the remaining few on that one or not.
*From what I have obtained, the only lawsuit that is outstanding is the one v. Riggs National Corporation. As you can see by the document below, this
too appears that it will dismissed.
