In what police describe as a "probable" suicide leap, a prominent Monterey Bay Area attorney fell at least nine floors to his death at the Embassy Suites Hotel Monterey Bay in Seaside the morning before Christmas.Shortly before 9:30 a.m. Sunday, officers found the body of Aptos attorney Paul Sanford in the west end of the hotel lobby, where he had landed on a large ventilation grate.
Police Capt. Steve Cercone said horrified guests were eating breakfast in the atrium at the time, and a number of witnesses saw Sanford fall from somewhere between the 9th and 12th floors.
"I'm at a loss for words," said Sanford's friend and business associate, Monterey attorney Shawn Mills. "Paul really had his fingers in a lot of different pies. He was from the East Coast, and I used to call him our 'West Coast Kennedy.'"

A good start!
"The question is, have the legal counsel to the White House or White House staff reviewed the statute in sufficient specificity to determine whether a violation of that statute would, in effect, constitute treason?"
Must have realized too late that everything he believed was a Lie created by Wilson...
Obviously, the pain of living was greater for him than his fear of death and he chose to end it. He must have been a tortured soul. Prayers go out to his family and loved ones.
Man, is that Michael Newdow radioactive or what?
Paul Sanford *stands next to him* and falls off a hotel balcony.
David Crespi *lived next door to him,* moved to NC and killed his twin 5-yo daughters.
Moral of the story, stay away from Michael Newdow for many reasons.
What? He wasn't checked into the hotel. Yet he went to a top floor and paced the hallways...waiting for his killers to arrive and finish him off?
"...Police said that before Sanford fell, hotel housekeepers saw him pacing the hallway of an upper floor. Cercone said Sanford's car was parked next to the hotel, and he was not checked in as a guest..."
What a cheap bastard!
I have lots of things to do the New Year's weekend. Mourning his loss won't be one of them.
was he about to spill the beans about Whitewater?
Mean Mean Mean
Sanford was also active in the national arena. He appeared before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2004 beside Elk Grove resident Michael Newdow when he argued unsuccessfully that the words "under God" should be stricken from the Pledge of Allegiance.
Ironic Now....
He will stand before GOD. will Jesus Be His lawyer?
I agree,that much more air and water for the rest of us,and free`s up one more parking space.
If he was bent on suicide, why not suck up some carbon monoxide from the exhaust pipe?
Not nearly as flashy as jumping from a hotel, eh?
There's probably something strange about this guy's life that won't be leaked to the press. .
Stayed there on business in October. I was only on the third floor and I remember some sort of roof below my window. Probably only could have broken some bones.

Now we have to look back and see who else he was hanging around with. Joe Wilson was originally from California and I believe Nice :-) Mr. Wilson has moved Back to California. Hmmmmmmm
Well, with that explanation of where he "comes from," it may be he realized the error of his ways, thought it had been a life 'gone wrong' and couldn't stand himself any longer?
