You #@($*# Freepers see what can happen to people who keep asking about my birth certificate, school records, medical records, work records and other irrelevant material?

Police investigating the death of Christopher Kelly, a former top fundraiser for ex- Gov. Rod Blagojevich, interviewed Kelly's girlfriend Monday as more details emerged about their relationship and Kelly's final hours.
Country Club Hills Police Chief Regina Evans met with Clarissa Flores-Buhelos at her attorney's Chicago office and afterward would only say Flores-Buhelos was "cooperating, but the investigation continues."
Kelly, 51, who was facing heavy pressure by Blagojevich prosecutors to cooperate in the corruption case against his former close friend, died Saturday morning just hours after authorities say Flores-Buhelos brought him to a suburban hospital with signs of a drug overdose.
On Monday, sources filled in some of the gaps in the events surrounding Kelly's arrival at Oak Forest Hospital shortly after 11 p.m. Friday and his transfer early Saturday to Stroger Hospital in Chicago, where he was pronounced dead hours later.
Flores-Buhelos brought Kelly into Oak Forest in a wheelchair, sources said. Sometime later he became very combative and had to be restrained. During this time, the sources said, Kelly made a reference to having taken a large amount of painkillers.

On Monday, meanwhile, Country Club Hills Mayor Dwight Welch said investigators were prepared to hold news conference Tuesday to release details and a timeline of Kelly's death.
People following Kelly's shocking death would be both "pleased and a little surprised" by police's findings, Welch said, declining to elaborate.
Welch had previously identified Flores-Buhelos as Kelly's girlfriend and accused her of having "lawyered up" and not cooperating with police.

The mayor also said police were still seeking information from a gray-haired "mystery man" who unsuccessfully tried to pick up the Escalade from the hospital, keys in his hand.

Christopher Kelly, Obamacare recipient #1.
Glad you posted that picture. The ex-gov would be the first one blamed if this is investigated as a murder. But, I don’t think the gov has the clout to have anything like this done.
Obummer doesn’t want a nasty court battle with all his cronies called to testify. I expect Blagovich to be the next asprin addict to bite the dust.
Obummercide????
Thank you for posting this article.
It takes a little work, but, if one reads the article carefully, and reads between the lines, the truth is there.
Was Kelly anywhere near Fort Marcy Park?
Anyone seen Ted Kennedy’s car lately?
Ping.
I've known Dwight for many years. Nice guy, but definitely in favor of whatever's good for Dwight at any given moment. I think he's trying to become the Don Stephens of the south burbs. He's managed to get the mayor's salary bumped up to well over $100K ... not bad for a sleepy burb of about 15,000.
The mayor's office is officially a non-partisan position, but Dwight's a dyed-in-the-wool Chicago style Democrat with strong ties to the Cook County Dem machine. In addition to his salary as mayor, he is also drawing a county pension as a retired building(?) inspector.
I think that Blago is about to blow this thing wide open and take some folks down with him. Please Dear Lord, let it happen.
Thanks ... that puts into dispute many reports
I’ve read linking Clarissa to a manager/partner
at the club, and Kelly being an investor.
I tried Moxie - just the once! It’s definitely an acquired taste.
