Head or brain injury.... changed to —it may not have been a murder after all....without credible autopsy all I see is blind speculation. And possible cover up. Given the nature of the place he worked in —and the nature of his work I suspect we will never find out. Kinda like that Park where the Clintons’ buddy was found.
My point is exactly that it’s all speculation without the medical examiner information, the means of movement (rapidly moving several miles without his auto at least thrice), the cell phone info, etc.
As for it being a hit, it would be pretty odd to murder someone over several days, wouldn’t it? Possible, yes...but likely?
And the police never said it was murder. Never. It was ruled a homicide. Why? We don’t know.
That was my first thought. Could be it didn't go off as easily as Vince Foster's did.
In a Fox News report. By Megan Kelly. She interviewed retired Air Force Lieutenant General Tom McInerney, a Fox contributor. He said he thought this had to be a professional hit job.
He said there was a need for an FBI investigation into Wheelers death based upon the fact that Wheeler had top government security clearances and moved in very high government circles. He had also been an expert in cyber-warfare.
My take on this is that the timing of his death coincides with two very significant developments.
One, Wheeler may have been targeted and neutralized by Iranian black ops agents as a result of the covert Stuxnet virus attack on that countrys nuclear reactor computers. Israel just recently came out with an estimate that the Stuxnet virus attack set the Iranian goal of a nuclear weapon back as much as five years. It is generally acknowledged that Stuxnet was a covert op but no one is talking ownership.
Two, the Iranians could have combed the chatter from the WikiLeaks dump. What they found may have pointed the finger at Wheeler. Its how they would respond even if it was after the fact and the damage had already been done. Retaliation is a strong currency within these regimes.
Iranians would almost certainly be able to position a black ops team in the U.S. for as long as it was necessary to take out a target. Wheeler may just be the first in a long line of casualties resulting from the WikiLeaks debacle.
