"Did he shoot himself as he jumped into the river? : o /"

Wait a minute.....I thought handguns were illegal in Chicago???? More gun control could have prevented this!

Floating?
I thought the Chicago way was to sink them...


Depends, if someone "disappears" the story stays in the news for a long time. Think Jimmy Hoffa here. If you want something to just go away you stage a suicide. And do it a little better than Vince Foster. This way it gets ruled a suicide and the river takes care of most of the evidence.

Besides with the Chicago River you would still need a shovel.

And a water-tight cell phone! :D

“police used his cell phone to locate him”

You don’t suppose there would be any security cameras in the area. Nah ...

"Rev. Jesse Jackson arrived at the scene about 7:25 a.m."

What the heck is this IDIOT going to do there?

So what's the Obama connection? “Serving” on a school boards is one of the best ways to create millions of dollars in real estate from superfund sites to your friends who just happen to own them or transfer millions of dollars in real estate from a school district to your friends for pennies on the dollar.

The best part of the story was Jesse showing up at 7:25. The thought of all of those warm and inviting cameras was too irresitable for him.

Anyone remember the name of Blago’s chief of staff who also “committed suicide” a few months ago??
