What a weird headline. Some “married father” was found dead, and then the SEAL guy committed suicide? No, wait, it’s just the one dead man ...

But seriously, I’m sorry to read this. I saw the earlier post about the death, and hoped it was a jeep accident or something “typical.”

Maybe he knew too much about Benghazi? Had to be silenced the Chicago Way.

You can say that again. I thought he killed himself after his father was killed.

RIP

THREE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS, he kills himself?!?

I don’t believe it.

Unfortunately it happens. We all ask why when it happens. A former business partner and a BIL both committed suicide for unknown reasons. I won't go into details other than to state one shot himself in the head and the other hanged himself. It was totally devastating to their family members.

Someone is doing a heck of a lot of leaking... the guy's residence, the wife's name, the daughter's name...

I wonder if the leaker is going to put directions to the house on google maps and zillow for al Qaeda and everyone else who might want to visit to follow?
