DUH!
Just more conspiratorialists hugh _Jim.
Blatant spin. Tie the death to Bush as often as possible, and eventually it becomes conventional wisdom.
If he was offed, it was much more likely to be because of what he knew about Billy Boy Clinton.
This was a wealthly man who probably still had some of his wealth despite now owning worthless stock. If he was the whistleblower wanting to do the right thing, I don't know that he saw prison in his future. Money could buy competent legal representation.
Perhaps he was just so filled with shame that he took his own life? It doesn't add up. It sounds, on the surface at least, that he was a man who had a conscience and was trying to do the right thing.
The coroner wasn't Fahmy Malik was it?
The Justice of the Peace who had originally declared this a suicide was informed of this finding and he ordered an autopsy. They didn't just decide to "err on the side of caution". Some finding at the scene made them suspect this may not have been a suicide after all.
Questions that remain are:
Has a handwriting analysis been done on the note?
Was he right handed or left handed?
Which side of the head was he shot?
Does the bullet path trace up from below, or down from above (as though shot while offering ID to someone standing outside the window)?
Since there is no report of windows being shattered from an exiting bullet, did the (.380 or .38?) bullet lodge in the seat, indicating a path from above to below, ore remain in his skull?
Since some reports indicate he used a .380 and others mention a revolver, is there such thing as a .380 revolver?
The answers to these basic questions will enable even the most junior of detectives to rule on the presence of foul play.
The withholding of answers to these questions should raise some red flags.
Carter has had her share of controversy. In 1998, Harris County paid a former employee in the medical examiner's office $375,000, after a jury agreed Carter fired her for reporting potentially illegal cover-ups. Then a federal court awarded another whistleblower $250,000 after she was fired for reporting that an unlicensed physician had performed autopsies. In 2000, writes The Houston Chronicle, a Harris County commissioner asked the county to hire an outside law firm to review Carter's hiring and firing practices. "
