Whoops -- just saw Petitfour's advice in post 201 that the bio you posted is of a different John Wheeler.... thanks, Petitfour.
“
Boyer, and two other employees, offered to help him and even offered
him some money, which he declined.
“
Well, there is still some love in heart of the cold, hard city.
This case is beyond sad. Wheeler’s West Point roommate appeared on
Fox News Channel and said the story of Wheeler’s last days is totally
inconsistent with the excellent soldier and human being he knew.
I think the roommate was General Scales. He did say he wouldn’t have
made it through his science classes (and West Point) without Wheeler’s help.
Myself, not being a doctor, can only speculate Wheeler either had
something like a stroke or got beaten about the head by some thug(s).
RIP
I agree. It is beyond sad. Wheeler was obviously a brilliant guy, and the whole thing is making no sense. Geraldo was supposed to be covering it tonight, but that probably won’t happen after the breaking news today.
