Huh, well, Harry Ellen is dead:
Harry Ellen
MESA, Ariz. (AP) - Harry Ellen, a longtime intelligence operative who aided and then publicly clashed with the FBI, died Friday. He was 56.
Ellen died at University Medical Center in Tucson after complications from a heart attack suffered several weeks ago, said Joe Abodeely, a lawyer and friend of Ellen.
Ellen spent more than 20 years as an American agent in Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.
Between 1995 and 1999, he made four trips to the Gaza Strip, where he established a charitable foundation and met with top Palestinian officials. He also met with five major terrorist groups in the region, seeking guarantees that doctors he brought to the region would not be targeted for violence.
His relationship with the FBI, however, soured in early 1999 over a separate investigation of a Chinese woman whom the FBI suspected was a spy. Agents disclosed Ellen's relationship with the bureau to the woman, who never faced any charges and was allowed to stay in the country.
The Justice Department was investigating Ellen's complaints.
When did he die?
Complications from a heart attack? Riiight.
