Inslaw Inc is an information technology firm which developed the famous PROMIS software, an NCIC-type tracking technology incorporating numerous databases such as court records, financial institutions, and utility companies. Inslaw was forced into bankruptcy in 1985 because the US Justice Dept., which contracted to purchase it, renigned on its obligations.[1] Pirated versions of the software were sold by US intelligence worldwide to 88 foreign intelligence agencies, and other organizations such as banks, which included a "backdoor" for US intelligence to hack into. Hillary Clinton was the intellectual property lawyer for a company that obtained and marketed copies of the stolen PROMIS software.[2]
That company was Systematics Inc, of Little Rock Arkansas,[3] now known as Alltel. Systematics was founded by Jackson Stephens of Stephens Inc., owners of Worthen Banking Corporation which bankrolled Bill Clinton's 1992 Presidential election campaign.[4] Stephen's was also co-owner, along with the Lippo Group (the Riady family) of the American branch of BCCI which laundered drugs and arms sales in the Iran-Contra scandal.[5] Systematics had an interest in further developing and marketing the stolen PROMIS software worldwide,[6] with its hidden "backdoor" for US intelligence hackers, to monitor in real time financial transactions and money laundering at banks throughout the world.[7][8] That backdoor can also be used by intelligence service hackers or others in possession of the program to launder money themselves.
Systematics Incorporated was a data processing company acquired in 1968 by Arkansas superinvestor Jackson T. Stephens. In 1990 it was sold to Alltel Corporation, and today is a part of Fidelity Information Systems.
Fidelity Information Systems still uses the name 'Systematics' as the name of a retail banking software product suite.
Systematics employees have held two reunions, most recently the 40th Anniversary Reunion in 2008. Pictures from both reunions and current information about former employees is available at the website - www.sireunion.org.
One of the lawyers Stephens hired to represent the company was a bright young attorney named Hillary Rodham. After she joined the Rose Law Firm, Stephens employed the firm and engaged its partners — including the now-married Hillary Rodham Clinton, Vince Foster and Webster Hubbell — in several of his ventures.[2]
Systematics was founded in 1968 by University of Arkansas graduate Walter Smiley, who learned of the high software costs and other difficulties faced by small banks in trying to use data processing software from his experiences working with IBM and in the banking industry. Smiley recognized a niche that could be filled for medium-sized banks in this space, and sought funding to start his own company. Through Jon Jacoby, Smiley was introduced to the Stephens family, who agreed to invest $400,000 in Walter and Systematics in return for 80% equity stake.
Caroline is survived by her husband of forty-two years, Jon Jacoby of Little Rock, and her daughters, Mary Barstow Jacoby Simpson of Washington, D.C.; Elizabeth Bampfield Jacoby Cook, and Susannah Swinton Jacoby, both of Little Rock, five grandchildren, and three sons-in-law.

I will bet anything that even though the GOP owns every branch and law enforcement agency . That no charges will ever be filed on the clintons..
This is the most obvious BS distraction from the fact EVERYONE knows trump actually colluded with Russia..
"For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations." -- JFK

Very nice find and damn good work backtracking, to include other members who helped.
So, in a sense, we got a peek at the creation that set the foundation for this to mature. Now, its being used to slander the current President of the United States. Who would have guessed? Hillary probably green lighted it. SNAKES.
Snakes.
To qoute Kurthall,
Mary Jacoby has never worked on a political campaign before -- though she did once work as a file clerk at Hillary Clinton's Rose Law Firm, subject of the Whitewater investigation, according to 1996 reports -- and has extensive experience as a political reporter.
* Roll Call newspaper will be dispatching a contingent of reporters down to Little Rock this weekend, but not to cover any congressional campaign. Seems that scribes Glenn Simpson and Mary Jacoby are getting hitched tomorrow in the Arkansas city.
Bush’s response wasn’t as pathetic as that of presidential candidate Wesley K. Clark in 2003 during a routine interrogation by reporters on a campaign plane about his views on Iraq. “Mary, help!” Clark called out to his press secretary. “Come back and listen to this.” Clark’s press secretary Mary Jacoby eventually put the brakes on the interview. “I want to clarify—we’re moving quickly here,” Jacoby said. “You said you would have voted for the resolution as leverage for a U.N.-based solution.”
Jeff Dailey, a leader of DraftClark2004.com and Arkansans for Clark, is the son of Little Rock Mayor Jim Dailey and a former Clinton White House staffer. He told me in August that he joined the movement because, among other reasons, "my father has known Gen. Clark for five or six or seven years. I've always heard about him." In Little Rock, Dailey worked as a communications consultant. Clark's new Arkansas press aide Jacoby quit her post as a reporter for the St. Petersburg Times to work for Clark; Jacoby's father, Jon Jacoby, is a good friend of Clark's, according to Spell, and knows him from Little Rock, where he is a director and executive of the Clinton-allied Stephens Group, Inc. and a senior executive at Stephens, Inc., the investment firm where Clark worked after returning to civilian life. Mary Jacoby has never worked on a political campaign before -- though she did once work as a file clerk at Hillary Clinton's Rose Law Firm, subject of the Whitewater investigation, according to 1996 reports -- and has extensive experience as a political reporter.
A consultant to John McCain hired a public-relations firm last year to burnish the U.S. image of a Ukrainian political party backed by Russian leader Vladimir Putin, according to documents filed with the Justice Department.
The lobbying firm of Davis Manafort Inc. arranged through an affiliate for the public-relations firm’s work last spring, at the same time Davis Manafort was being paid by the Republican presidential candidate’s campaign. The firm is co-owned by lobbyist Rick Davis, manager of Sen. McCain’s presidential campaign, and longtime Republican strategist Paul Manafort.

So, I spent a little time poking about using the relevant names. Haven't found anything earth shattering, but did see several articles written by Mary Jacoby regarding the Clintons:

Here's a little snip pet in the Washington Post from 1994:
* Roll Call newspaper will be dispatching a contingent of reporters down to Little Rock this weekend, but not to cover any congressional campaign. Seems that scribes Glenn Simpson and Mary Jacoby are getting hitched tomorrow in the Arkansas city.
In 2003, Mary Jacoby was Wesley Clarke's press secretary:

Here's a little more about Jacoby, Clark, & Stephens Group:

He told me in August that he joined the movement because, among other reasons, "my father has known Gen. Clark for five or six or seven years. I've always heard about him."

There are tons of articles that could be mined for surface info. Now to go see what shakes out by poking around under the covers.
