That wasn't a secret. The US government was repaying funds illegally seized from then Iranians, by order of the World Court. Iran doesn't have the electronic infrastructure for an electronic transfer that large, so pallets o' cash. This happened at the same time as the release of four American prisoners, spawning many a conspiracy theory. But the money was owed, and the US did use the threat of stretching out or even delaying repayment to leverage the release. https://www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-iran-payment-cash-20160907-snap-story.html

One of the sketches looked a fair bit like me at the time - kinda freaked out my mom!

Was David Berkowitz really Son of Sam, or were there others involved? (One of the police sketches, that really didn't look like Berkowitz, reminded me of someone I knew at the time.)

Supposedly at the beginning of our Iraq invasion the Pentagon shipped a freakin PALLET of $100 bills to be used for general palm-greasing & bribing government officials/big shots, etc. Nobody kept track of the Benjamins...so the question is, who wound up with the boodle? UPDATE: Turns out it wasn't just 1 pallet & it was more like TWELVE BILLION DOLLARS... https://www.theguardian.com/world/2007/feb/08/usa.iraq1
