The Dark Turn For Jack Ryan

Thank you so much for all your work in exposing what happened to Jack Ryan this from the book by Daniel P. Sullivan, “The Murder of the Real Jack Ryan.” Even though I read the book, you made certain parts I missed or skimmed over really come alive. One part that struck me in this book was the day that Jack was back from his trip (that night he would be killed), and Mr. Broder, who worked for Jack and was not in the good graces of Mr. Engle, but very much appreciated by Jack, was approached in the cafeteria by Kimball, who he only knew to say “hello” to. Kimball asks to sit with him and proceeds to tell him about this affair he was having for a long time with this Vietnamese woman and was afraid that Jack was moving in on his territory with her. I never believed that – no man goes to another man he hardly know to relay all this unless he is setting up the situation for what will happen later. That’s why I believe nothing happened between Jack and this woman as it was planted. The only two people who could answer this question are silenced on this side of the grass forever. I believe Engle played a big role in this, too. And God bless George, his brother, for all he uncovered in Saigon instead of being at his brother’s funeral. I was so moved by that and all he found out, especially how the Vietnamese woman, who was shot in the back and fell forward, was dragged back on the lawn face up and then shot in the chest twice to keep with Kimball’s story. Thank you again — It is a tragedy beyond measure, especially for his family, but what an upstanding man full of honesty and integrity.
