Today’s New York Times has an article, “CIA Expanding Terror Battle Under Guise of Charter Flights, that does a pretty good job of identifying the ever-growing circle of CIA front companies and aircraft toting individuals around the world for interrogation and detention.

The graphic representation in the link above identifies a double layer of operating companies and a few of the individuals that the companies have in common.

What I want to do here is provide a place for any further identification of facts about these people and these companies.
I have initially focused on Crowell Aviation Technologies, as according to the NYT article, it is the only company that operates with no outside shell. The name I focused on was Laura L. Owen, a name associated with both Crowell Aviation Technologies and Path Corporation in the article.

Searching Nexis business databases, I found only two mentions of a “Laura L. Owen”.

The addresses listed for the business go back to a Nevada corporation agency, a business that blocks the identites of the individuals and the business. I find the names interesting and suggestive: “Bible Battle Production” and “Heavenly Gems”.

Searching Google, I haven’t found much of anything related for “Heavenly Gems”.

The kicker?

Searching Google, I have found nothing for “Bible Battle Production”. Nada. Zip. Zero.

There are other names associated with these two suspicious companies:

John P. Owen
Deanna M. Miller

I haven’t dug any deeper yet to prove or disprove the legitimacy of these two Nevada businesses and the individuals associated with them; however, at first glance, they appear to be shady.

I hope that people will look at the NYT article, at the businesses and names I’ve presented here, and dig deeper. I’ll keep digging, too, and post here when I find more.
