When I was in a fraternity, we were trained to never comment on anything to the press or outsiders. I think the zotted poster made it up.

I agree. From the frat minutes offered, he sounded like a regular kid.

Something's very wrong with this picture.

Remember the black woman who was killed in the Olympics bombing? They well could have pinned this on her if Richard Jewell hadn't been an easier mark.

"When I was in a fraternity, we were trained to never comment on anything to the press or outsiders. I think the zotted poster made it up."

A confirmation call would have been extra-kool. Perhaps it's time for the FR to reach the next level? Just a thought. If the board moderators could privately ask for phone numbers when calls like this are allegedly made, then "Whalla!" We are an even more incredible place, huh? Still got the possibility of pranks though. Some punk could claim he is what he's not over the phone. But it narrows the realm of mischief quite a bit.

I was never in a fraternity, but using common sense, and perhaps a little decency...who would answer telephone questions from a stranger about a friend who had just been blown up under such circumstances?
Whether it was a suicide or not has not yet been factually proven, IMHO.
If the number of agencies supposedly involved in the investigation is true, I doubt we will "know" what happened here for at least a week.
The lack of media coverage is odd.

When they had the alcohol poisoning at the Signma Chi house last fall, every sorority/fraternity on campus was told not to say a word about anything dealing with what happened. That lid was clamped down tight on the President's of all the Greek system. Cannot believe this President would take a phone call from a stranger and talk about the kid.
