It’ll be interesting to see what develops.

I was surprised that the aspirin overdose information was put out there this quickly.

Wow! I’m totally shocked! I guess they’re sending a message to the rest of the crooks involved in this thing: Monk, etc.

WOWsers - another update:

Kelly was found in a lumber yard near 173rd Street and Cicero Avenue in Country Club Hills late Friday, said the town’s mayor, Dwight Welch. Kelly arrived at Oak Forest Hospital at 11:15 p.m. Friday, said Marcel Bright, a Stroger Hospital spokesman.

At Oak Forest, he was treated and stabilized and doctors determined he needed additional treatment at Stroger, so he was transferred there by private ambulance, Bright said. Kelly arrived at Stroger at 5:15 a.m.

Kely was treated by doctors and pronounced dead at 10:46 a.m., said hospital spokesman Marcel Bright.

Illinois State Police crime scene investigators called in by Country Club Hills continued to look for evidence in the empty lumber yard parking lot tonight. The remote spot, opposite insect-filled corn fields near Interstates 57 and 80, was taped off as officers used flashlights to search on hands and knees.

Mayor Welch, who visited the lumber yard today, said detectives were looking for cigarette butts or anything else that might be traced back to potential witnesses or suspects...

They added the word “stabilized”. Interesting.

Looking for evidence of suspects? Or did I read it wrong? I wonder if he was concious? How else would they know about the aspirin? Thsy haven’t done an autopsy, or even more important a tox. screen.

I presume since one version of the story states that he was stabilized - that he may have told them about the aspirin.

But, I’m just guessing.

If he told them about the aspirin, than he surely would have told them if he was forced to take it.
