A famous author, who penned biographies for Bobby Kennedy and Edie Sedgwick, leaped to her death from a Manhattan high rise on Sunday.

Jean Stein, 83, plunged from the 15th story of 10 Gracie Square on the Upper East Side, in New York at 10.35am.

She landed on the an eighth-floor balcony below and paramedics say she died at the scene, New York Daily News.

She was Katrina Vanden Heuvel’s mother.

Now poor little Kommitrina will get the rest of the family millions.

[Vendome]

Carefully...

[A strike]

Is this true?
If so, how long do we have to wait for a repeat?

[Fightin Whitey]

“Come over here by the window, sonny, and lemme have a look atcha.”

Reminds of (back when it was funny) SNL skit with Sam Kinnison pretending he was a child psychologist.

It’s the “stupid Sarah” skit. Funny.

Uh-huh. She ‘leaped’.

Makes me wonder if she was writing a book on Bill & Hillary Clinton...I hear that kind of thing can cause spontaneous suicidal impulses.

If so, the area was “cleaned” and there will be no proof. Unless those who knew her step forward. Which few probably will.

Good speculation, though. We will never know if it was indeed true. BTW, is the guy from The Clinton Foundation still AWOL?

Lots my dad lived in a retirement condo for 7 years they had what he called splaters a few times a year it was a 5 story place with balconys happens all the time

I have never been able to figure out why that family is held in such high regard, most of them have been nothing but screw ups.

For the same reasons that Odumbo and the Clintoon is held in high regard.

[Rome2000]

He talked about it on Howard Stern.

[SaveFerris]

Yes. Morons have an incurable brain disease called “liberalism”.

[shotgun]

Only after the gubmint takes their share

“BTW, is the guy from The Clinton Foundation still AWOL?”

Let’s just say that it might be a good idea to avoid eating the crab from Long Island Sound.

47%??? That is about 1 in 2 of old people jump to their death. So for every old person you know, about half will end up jumping to their death.

I’ve never knew anyone to jump to their death in their old age so your statistics should be higher. :O)

[SaveFerris]

Spot on, FRiend.

[tuffydoodle]

Cooper is a very common name but you might not be aware of that.

[SaveFerris]

They probably take them off the Continental Shelf.

That was the preferred dumping ground and not too far for even small-to-medium boats. I can’t remember the distance but it didn’t seem too far out.

[oh8eleven]

47% of old people jump to their deaths every year.
Surely, you gest.
I think you're missing a decimal somewhere.

[Mr. Blond]

That figure might include “falls”.
