After parking the car in the garage -- shut the engine off.

Of course I didn't read the article. Nobody's got time for 'dat.

[RKBA Democrat]

Clearly accidental. Was probably researching a story or some such.

We had a CO tech pull that off in the cable vault in Laud years ago.
Bet his wife would be PO’d knowing all she got wa this crappy life insurance

[Andy'smom]

And how was CBS responsible for this perverted employee’s death?

[freedumb2003]

It turns out terminal stupidity is NOT a covered event.

Good to know — this lawsuit hasn’t got a chance.

Are we sure Harvey Weinstein or Bill Clinton wasn’t somewhere else at the time?

[wastoute]

I guess he didn’t know if he was coming or going...

[mowowie]

Isn’t this basically how they found David Carradine?

[Williams]

If it wasn’t suicide sounds like she has a decent case this should have been covered under his accidental death policy. And suicide is covered after 2 years under most policies.

I could see an attorney arguing that the guy did not intend to kill himself and it was an accidental death akin to a heroin overdose. The guy was addicted to the rush that apparently happens when someone does this. If the insurance company has covered accidental drug overdoses in the past, they may have a tough time explaining how this is different.

From wiki: Author George Shuman describes the effect as such, “When the brain is deprived of oxygen, it induces a lucid, semi-hallucinogenic state called hypoxia. Combined with orgasm, the rush is said to be no less powerful than cocaine, and highly addictive.”

Baffling to me even more so than shooting heroin or cocaine... bizarro.

My national guard unit was having a retirement party for a member. During the party, the retiree received news his son had just died that way.
What a bad moment!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Is there anyone employed at CBS that isn’t a pervert ?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Poor woman. It's one thing to have your husband die unexpectedly. It's another thing to find out the peculiar, perverted manner of his self-inflicted death.
 

[faithhopecharity]

Gee. Is this what they’re teaching in sex ex nowadays? ( I must have missed that chapter)

[Billthedrill]

LaFave was wearing a slip, brassiere, women’s underwear and pantyhose, and multiple other scarves were tied around his crotch and lower half at the time of his death.

Oh, come now. Who among us has never...wait a minute, lemme read that article again...

[wyowolf]

How embarrassing for him...thats all anyone will remember.

[exDemMom]

Less than two hundred people a year die of this.

I knew one of those people.

I feel for the wife.

[Garvin]

underwear and pantyhose, and multiple other scarves were tied around his crotch and lower half at the time of his death.

So I suppose this is normal?

[BenLurkin]

Good gracious. Bad enough somebody would do that to themelf....but to croak that way in Pittsburgh is really a sad thing.
