Monday A spokeswoman for the Forest Service
says investigators are moving forward
with an arson investigation.

Donna Wilson says an aerial view of
the damage led crews to rule out
lightning, camp fires or any other
accidential causes.

The fire is nearly contained.

It began with ten smaller fires over
the weekend, and ultimately spread to
more than 28-hundred acres in the
Peavine Mountain area of Amherst
County.

conclusion:

(1223) SOT: LORD STEVENS/CHIEF

INVESTIGATOR

THERE WAS NO CONSPIRACY TO MURDER ANY
OF THE OCCUPANTS OF THAT CAR. THIS

WAS A TRAGIC ACCIDENT.

The investigation aims to bury a decade
of conspiracy theories that

Princess Diana and boyfriend Dodi al
Fayed were murdered by the Royal

Family because their relationship was
an embarrassment.

And of the widespread speculation Diana
was carrying Dodi's baby when

she died?

SOT: LORD STEVENS,

WE ARE CERTAIN THE PRINCESS WAS NOT
PREGNANT AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH.

The inquiry, led by former police chief
Lord Stevens, largely reinforced

French findings in the 1997 car crash
in a Paris underpass: that Henri

Paul was TWICE over the drunk driving
limit when he smashed into a

tunnel trying to outrun paparazzi.

Neither the Princess nor Dodi were
wearing seatbelts.

ON CAMERA BRIDGE: CHARLIE
D'AGATA/BUCKINGHAM PALACE

LORD STEVENS ADMITTED THERE WERE
SEVERAL THINGS IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO

KNOW FOR SURE -- LIKE WHETHER DODI HAD
PLANNED ON ASKING DIANA TO MARRY

HIM THAT VERY NIGHT, BUT HE SAYS SHE
WAS DEFINITELY ..NOT.. ENGAGED, AND

PROBABLY NOT ABOUT TO BE ENGAGED, WHEN
SHE DIED.

SOT: LORD STEVENS

PRINCE WILLIAM HAS CONFIRMED TO ME THAT
HIS MOTHER HAD NOT GIVEN HIM THE

SLIGHTEST INDICATION OF SUCH PLANS FOR
THE FUTURE.

Even before the report was made public,
Dodi's father, Mohammed al Fayed

slammed its findings.

SOUNDBITE: Mohammed al Fayed, father of
Dodi Fayed:

"BALONEY, IT'S ALL MADE UP AS A COVER
UP, A HUNDRED PERCENT.

Princes William and Harry have said
they hope to FINALLY bring an end to

speculation of what happened that night
in Paris when they lost their

mother, and the world lost a princess.
