WASHINGTON (AP) - The FBI is investigating the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery. A law enforcement official says the word "fed" was scrawled on his chest.

The body of Bill Sparkman, a 51-year-old Census field worker and occasional teacher, was found Sept. 12 in the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky.

Investigators have said little about the case.

I wonder if he may have stumbled upon a Jihadi camp or a bunch of illegals?

The Plum LineGreg Sargent’s blog
Suicide Not Ruled Out For Dead Census Worker; He Was In Contact With The Ground
I’ve got some more detail for you on the case of the Bill Sparkman, the U.S. census worker who was found dead of hanging, reportedly with the word “fed” scrawled on his chest:

1) Kentucky state police have not ruled out the possibility that the death was a suicide or even that it was accidental, according to police spokesman Don Trosper.

2) His death has been ruled “asphyxia,” Trosper said in an interview. “There was a rope around his neck. It was attached to a tree,” Trosper continued, adding this intriguing detail: “He was in contact with the ground.”

That raises the possibilty that the cause of death was not hanging. Asked if this were possible, Trosper said: “Nothing is being ruled out.”

3) Trosper said the initial AP story on the death contains “flaws and errors.” That means it’s possible that the AP’s claim, based on an anonymous source, that he had the word “fed” scrawled on his chest could be false. Asked if that were the case, Trosper declined to comment.

So that’s where we are. Much more from Zachary Roth in his very useful rundown on where the case stands.

I LIKE UBER-nutbags.

Even though some of the UBER-nutbags I know are also boneheads.

It was probably done by someone who had a traumatic experience with a smurf during childhood.

I think I'll include on my resume that I am married to an UBER-nutbag. Bet the job offers will start rolling in.

Wow, Eaker got honorable mention over there! Way to go Eak! :-)

Pardon my language ladies, but what a pathetic bunch of pussies over at the DU.

Keep up the good work Eaker... maybe one of them will become a census taker and get to meet one of us in person! :-)

As for hanging somebody... that's so uncivilized! :-)

Every time I think of DU I picture a twinkle toes cleaning up after a party using clothes pins to hang freshly laundered gerbils by their tails on an outdoor line.
