I cant find a single detail of the event anywhere on the internet. Not a single bloody pstinking detail.

Was he on foot or in a car?

At a marked crossing or in the middle of tracks where you are not supposed to cross?

Was it day or night?

Was it clear, foggy or rainy with obstructed visibility?

Was he alone or with a witness who saw him struck.

This stinks to high heaven, is an obvious Arkancide, and the media REFUSES to give us any details.

I hate my government. I hate the media. We are doomed. The New World Order is going all in. They will insure Trump is not elected. Get ready forv8 years with the Queen of Corruption running America into the ground. The commie SCOTUS will see this nation into totalitarian tyranny.

And there still doesnt exist a single media report giving any details about the crash. Only details about the victim. Absolutely nothing sbout location, time of day, weather, witnesses, if he was on foot, where he crossed.

Breitbart, how about digging out these detaiks for us please...

And this wasnt a mouth breathing drunk. This was a brilliant professional. It would be next to impossible for him to not see a train or misjudge a trains speed or distance. Flat out impossible.

Unless he was playing Pokemon Go. /sarcasm

“How did he really get to be on the tracks?”

Exactly, was he pushed onto the tracks?

very odd for such a high profile person....

A spokesman for British Transport Police said it was called to West Hampstead rail station in north London at 7.07am on Monday after a man was struck by a train.

A spokesman added: “He was pronounced dead at the scene. The man’s death is not being treated as suspicious. A file will be prepared for the coroner.”

.@BernardKeane RIP. Curious timing. UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention is still hearing UK gov's Assange appeal today, yes? @wikileaks— Yes, We Scan ⊕ (@boldfreshjew) April 19, 2016

"He appeared in a number of leading extradition cases, including a supreme court decision about the needs of vulnerable children caught up in the process.

He was a member of the team acting for Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks founder confined to the Ecuadorian embassy in London pending the resolution of an extradition application by Sweden, and it was his submissions that persuaded the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention this year to rule (much to the annoyance of the UK government and newspaper editorials) that Assange was being wrongfully detained."

Yes, I agree.

Not sure how brilliant he was, but he was certainly upscale, not a person who would make a life-costing mistake.

We’ll see. Even successful people can have episodes of depression, so I don’t want to rule out person culpability completely.

Killed elsewhere and body dumped on the track to be run over later? The article doesn't say, but was he hit at the station or in the countryside between stations?

If only there were a way to predict where a train is going to come from. A reasonalbly educated person could probably stay clear of them.

This different headline makes it clear what is being considered the likely cause. (suicide)

I hadn't read it when I made my comments earlier.

As a small city guy who occasionally visits the “big city” I am always amazed by the closeness to oblivion that metro citizens live with. It would seem very easy to get smashed by a subway train, speeding bus, truck, cab, elevator, mugger, escalator, cyclist etc. particularly in London, New York or Rome. Visitors not used to this circumstance should always be aware of such potential hazards.

I seem to recall a couple of kids who were run over by a train in Mena, Arkansas.

I’m sure this guy had some imbalance issues and just slipped off the platform into the path of an oncoming train...

Suicide? Was he despondent?

Vince Foster was a suicide, too.

Not suicide.

Arkan-cide. Previously happy people who run afoul of the wrong people suddenly take their lives.
