Tuesday, December 2, 1997 Guest: David Anderson, of Armstrong & Anderson Investigations   Opening Remarks:   Evening everyone! Good to be back! How are you all?   I'm here tonight to let you all in on the latest developments at A&A Investigations. We've sent the test results taken of the soil samples from the Dickerson Farm to the EPA. The EPA plans to send out their own field crew to test the site during the week of the 15th. There is a lawsuit pending, but the EPA won't institute it until after they've completed their own testing.   I'm sorry to say that Armstrong won't be here tonight. He had some work he wanted to finish up on, so it'll just be me tonight. He sends his regards to you all though.   Question and Answer session:   Q: What is the lawsuit and who is it against? A: I believe EPA related lawsuits like this are handled by fencing off the property and suing the owner for clean up costs. But until they do their testing, the EPA will just be compiling data. At least that's how I understand these things to work.   Q: Has the toxic waste dumped been cleaned up and do you know who was responsible for dumping it in the first place? A: Well, they can't clean it up until there has been a full investigation. The EPA needs to see the results first before it can even be determined as toxic, a crew will be sent to test the site. Usually these sort of lawsuits sue the owner of the property for the expenses of cleaning up the property plus additional damages and fines. The first step is to be certain of what's been dumped.   Q: Has a list been prepared on Chambeau's holdings? If yes when will it be posted to your site? A: We're still compiling a list. We're trying to put it together as fast as we can. The only thing is, we don't know the full legalities of posting the list, so when we get the list together we'll have to check into that before we can post anything. It might take a while if we can even post it legally.   Q: Are you going to investigate Chambeau's other properties to determine if they're a dump too? A: We only look into what we are being paid to investigate. Oxford Green would probably only pay us to look into properties in and around Oxford.   Q: C/S Disposal are the dumpers, Chambeau is the property owner...any idea who the chemical manufacturers are? A: Not yet. We're looking into it, but we haven't found any names yet. When we get concrete evidence, you'll all know.   Q: Who is behind Oxford Green, is there a president and list of members anywhere? A: It's an environmental group here in Oxford, but that's all I can tell you. Client confidentiality. I can't give out the names of the people I work for. It's a part of the company policy and state licensing that we cannot reveal our client's name/names. I am not at liberty to discuss anything about them. (NOTE: Oxford Green is a local environmentalist group, the Director is Donald Wallace who has spoken in Crime Scene chat before. His presentation is available on the A & A Investigations web page.)   Q: This may have been asked and answered but, have you found any connection between the dumping site and Chuck Lamar? A: None that we have found, no.   Q: Have you interviewed anybody dealing with C/S? A: Who would you go about interviewing? I mean employees? Who? So far as we can tell, only reputable companies have used them for disposal. We haven't gotten a hold of anyone who knows anything about this case, no.   Q: Have you had opportunity to speak with Chambeau, Gilbert or Harberson about the case? A: We've talked with Gilbert...he doesn't know anything, and Chambeau is away, we haven't been able to reach him.   Q: Dave do you know if there have been any sightings of Macy Lamar and if she knows her Dad is dead? A: I haven't heard anything, but I'm not working on that case. That's a question for Nelson, I'm sure.   Q: Is this the first time Chambeau has been a suspect in a case? A: W don't have any documents on that. Though we have a contact at the Sheriff's office that might be able to provide us with some of the documentation on whether there have been past cases or charges against Chambeau.   Q: Have you found any evidence that Chuck Lamar was involved in business dealings with Chambeau or Gilbert? A: No, we haven't found any actual connections to Lamar and Chambeau/Gilbert, but I suspect that there is a connection there somewhere. We just haven't got anything substantial or concrete on it.   Q: Do you have any information on who owns C/S? A: No, we don't but we suspect the answer is hidden in many of the files and dealings between Chambeau and C/S. Maybe even in files of different deals between C/S and dumping corporations. It's all in the paper work. We just have to find it. (Note: C/S Disposal, Inc. ownership has subsequently been posted to the A & A Investigations web page.)   Q: Does Chambeau have an e-mail address, maybe you could try e-mailing him? A: Chambeau has an e-mail, but just like the phone calls we've made, he's not responding. We've left messages at his home, his office, and e-mail. As many places as we can hope to get an answer from. He's just not giving any response.   Q: Are there any other entrances to Dickerson property? A: Yes, there's a back entrance, but I've not been there. I've only heard about it from Armstrong. He's seen it.   Q: Could you tell us if you think there was foul play involved in the Sheriff's death? A: Personally? I think that it's too coincidental...and there are just too many things that don't add up about Lamar's death. I don't really know how they are connected, but I think that they are...But that's just a personal opinion.   Q: Do you think that Macy will ever be recovered? A: I'm not really sure, to be honest. I believe she's alive. So I think that there is a good chance of getting her back.   Q: Have you found out anything about Chambeau's recent whereabouts? A: All we know of Chambeau's whereabouts is that he is not in Oxford. The guy up and disappeared. He's out of reach of phone calls...and people it seems.   Q: Any idea at all how long the chemicals have been on the site? A: We're looking into findings on that. We haven't gotten any actual dates, but we know that the farm wasn't contaminated before Chambeau owned the property.   Well, I have to be running. I have a meeting with Armstrong in a few. You all have a good night!
