Authorities in Orange County are investigating the discovery of three dead bodies inside a home in east Orange County on Thursday, and they've called in bomb experts to assist in the investigation.

The bodies were found at 2420 Hickory Oak Blvd. in the Hickory Cove subdivision, Orange County Sheriff's Office spokesman Jim Solomons said.

According to Solomons, police received a call from a woman from North Carolina saying to check on the well-being of a friend in the home.

When police arrived at the home, the deputies said they found it unsecured and discovered the bodies of three men, all in their mid-30s. There was no sign of forced entry.

3. Love Triangle in the Love Shack, maybe?

According to records from the Orange County Property Appraiser's Office, the home is owned by Rafael Gonzalez, who is known to be a prominent Republican party strategist. He also lists the house as the address for his business.

It is not known if Gonzalez is one of the victims.

The address of the home is listed as the office of the Strategum Group, a political firm whose president is listed as Ralph Gonzalez, who served as executive director of the Georgia Republican Party.

Two of the victims lived together in the house, and the third a former roommate who was visiting from out of town since early this week. A car and a sport utility vehicle were parked outside the home.

4. Interesting. That is the Strategum Group business office

Residence listed under Ralph Gonzalez who served as executive director of the Georgia Republican Party.

"Two of the victims lived together in the house, and the third a former roommate who was visiting from out of town since early this week. . . Detectives on scene said so far this appears to be a case of slaying and suicide. They believe some type of dispute might have occurred. . . Investigators said the bodies have been in the house for several days.
"

Falling out of thieves.

6. Republican cleanup work? n/t

[peacetalksforall]

7. We seem to have multiple scandals a week coming from the GOP

the WH and their representatives, employees, or followers - either political governmental, or personal.

The worst are the ones that make our country poorer in democracy, stature, and economics.

9. I wish all the republicans

got together and drank koolaid à la Rev. Jim Jones' People's Temple and get it over with in one swoop.

They have been drinking koolaid for the past 6 years anyway -- adding the KCN won't be noticed!
