The Cover-Up: Lies, Forgeries & Deceptions in the High Command:
Lieutenant-Colonel George Picquart, the new head of Army Intelligence, began to uncover a pattern of deception. He discovered a letter from German military attache von Schwartzkoppen to French Army Major Ferdinand Esterhazy, and became convinced that Esterhazy was the real traitor. Picquart, the "whistle-blower," became a problem for his superiors. Major Henry, the Army's designated forger of earlier incriminating evidence, continued to tamper with documents in order to build the case against Picquart. |
