An hour after BP workers were told they had to shift from Destin, Florida to another location and to not discuss anything with anybody, human body parts washed up where they had been working.

Gregg Hall reports that a former BP worker contacted him under agreed anonymity because the contractor wanted to ease his conscience. The interview is below.

"I want it understood I'm doing this because there are some things that need to be told, need to be said. I'm not doing this for publicity. I don't want publicity," the worker told Hall.

"One hour after we were shifted out [of Destin, Fl], body parts started washing up," he said. "There were hands, arms, feet... a leg and a foot."

He then told Hall that there are lots of things people do not know.

The worker confirms that large, deep trenches were being dug. He explains in one incident, a 15-foot deep, 20-foot wide hole was dug and berm put around it. The workers were not allowed to know what went into it or other trenches before covered with sand.

If everyone starts telling what they know about BP's cover-up, we can compile a book titled - The never ending story of BP's disaster.

Yes LT. Sometimes I feel like we are like sheep being led to the slaughter house.

Hi, I havent't been following the Gulf lately. There haven't been any hurricanes directly in the disaster area that I've read. Maybe the season will escape the region this year, we don't know, but that will be a very telling situation when it happens.

I watched the video... just more confirmation of covering-up.

That's what baffles me about the whole story. Victims of the Mexican drug war??

I would not rule out anything yet.

It is criminal for not reporting this to the police for investigation. And if the "worker" had been ordered to keep silent .... then the company who was responsible for the cleaning up and "hush up" needs to be investigated for obstruction of justice. It does not matter where the body parts came from.

For a company that has already been caught lying (with documented and video evidence) so many times, this is just another feather to the cap, BP can be proud of.

This was a matured man talking on camera (though hidden). Surely he could not have mistaken the human parts.
