1. We do not know that he wasn't. Per protocol an investigation will HAVE to be completed.

so, if you want to mock the likes of former Prosecutor Paul Buttler, US Attorney Joyce Vance, and other Federal law enforcement this morning, then feel free. It isn't them (or other DUers pointing this out sans any "conspiracy theory" ) that will look foolish. All we know to date is that he was found hanging or hanged in the cell. Either suicide or homicide is a fully reasonable theory for the cause pending investigation.

by himself. Makes it easier for someone to get access to him to kill him or to threaten him that if he doesn't kill himself his will have to look over his shoulder the rest of his life as they will put a Target on him in prison.

absolutely excoriating the DU community for not taking the report at face value (i.e.,, speculating about homicide) and in general, being absolutely contemptuous of those who want to see the facts come out before concluding causality.

If that was not your intent, perhaps you can see why it might be open to misinterpretation.

Obviously, I'm not the only one who took your post (whether intentionally or not) to be mocking those who are questioning homicide v suicide.

Those idiots think that in all of Ken Starr's investigations into them, he somehow missed all the alleged murders, and had to settle for getting Bill on sex scandal. Yeah. Sure. Fucking imbeciles.
