Episode 22 Who was Michael Meiring Innocent treasure hunter or Covert Terrorist

On May 16, 2002, an explosion occurred at the Evergreen Hotel in Davao City, particularly inside the room which was being stayed in by American oncologist, Michael Meiring who had reportedly been treasure hunting in the country since the 1990s. The explosion was caused by dynamite he was allegedly keeping inside the room. However subsequent investigations showed that the story meiring was telling was quite true. he was investigated for being in possession of fake us federal bank notes and possible links to terrorist groups operating in the area at the time. shortly after the explosion, the FBI Spirited him out of the country and back to the United States. Many years later Meiring died without ever explaining his side of the story.

which leaves many questions behind...who was Michael T. Meiring?

Why did US Embassy officials accord him special treatment if he was just an ordinary treasure hunter? What was he doing in Southern Mindanao for the past 10 years? Why was he in possession of explosives? Was he alone in his activities in Davao or was he with other conspirators?
