"was discovered inside his locked Geneva penthouse atop a super-secure building that houses a police station on the ground floor."

--> I wonder if a crooked Donut got to him?

Stern seems to have been a real piece of work. I wonder how many of the mourners at his funeral will be claques?

My travel documents verify no recent visits to Geneva.

YAWN!!!!!

[endthematrix]

So what information was he going to spill?

[kb2614]

Bush did it.

This sounds like a case that happened a few years ago where some high-flier in finance was murdered in his own apartment. There were several threads about it on this forum.

Ever wonder why no one ever attacks Switzerland? Because that's where all the bad guys keep their money.

"Because that's where all the bad guys keep their money."

That is correct, all sides keep what they loot from their countries and other countries hidden from sight.

When Felix Rohatyn says you're a piece of sh**, you're a piece of sh**.

Talk about making enemies in high places. This guy made enemies in high, middle and low places.

Edmund Safra maybe. He allegedly rana money laundering bank in the US. HS sold it and made some enemies. Died in a fire that was blamed on his servant but evidence pointed elsewhere. Simon Moglivich was said to involved.

".... there were no signs of a break-in, leading police to believe he let his killer inside the building, which is equipped with security cameras throughout...... his posh bachelor apartment."

- From the above comments in the story, I have developed a fairly sound theory of why the 50 year old bachelor let the killer into his posh pad.
As they say in San Francisco: Cherchez l'homme.

Any more details on this case?

My travel documents verify no recent visits to Geneva.

OK, you're cleared. But where were the Clintons when it happened?

[kingsurfer]

Partying with Marc Rich I expect.

[csvset]

The deceased.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Is Ted Maher still in prison?

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

It looks like there was no lose of humane life.

Sounds like he found out that Soylent Green is people.
