HOUSTON — Even after Justice Antonin Scalia did not respond to a knock at the door of his suite at the Cibolo Creek Ranch at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, John B. Poindexter, the property’s owner, thought little of it.

“Judge Cinderela Guevera had ultimately pronounced Justice Scalia dead by telephone and “ruled it natural causes...”

“Isn’t it interesting how the insanest posts so often feature so many grammatical errors and typos that you can’t quite tell where the incoherency ends and the insanity begins?”

Damn it! That’s too long for a tagline!

Here is an image of Cibolo Creek Ranch resort, TX where Justice Scalia passed away. Really remote location. About 200 Miles S.E. of El Paso, 30 mi S of Marja. There is an airstrip a mile or two to the East across Hwy 67.

U dont really believe that bullshit do u. The man died in his sleep...what next the guys in the black helicopters swooped in and got him ....

[knarf]

I have no problem with the midnight ride ..

Less sensationalism

I'm not sure an autopsy was not performed.

[Eagles6]

Would hope that the family would demand a private autopsy.

[doc maverick]

This was an unattended death......where the authorities? Taking orders from WhiteMosque?
And no autopsy in an unattended death?
This stinks to high heavens.....

[doc maverick]

WHO signed the death certificate?
Was he/she even there to see the body?

[doorgunner69]

"Judge Cinderela Guevera had ultimately pronounced Justice Scalia dead by telephone and "ruled it natural causes..."

"Called it in", Eh?

No autopsy should set off some major alarms, if true. I thought it standard practice to perform one if no physician attended the death.

[stars & stripes forever]

[Wait. No autopsy? What the hell?]

Reminds me of Breitbart.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

I read it as the OP insinuated that Scalia's death was a black bag job and he was 'heart-attacked' a la Breitbart.
The rancher coming in on such a scene would have guaranteed his demise by 'heart-attack' also.

[joesbucks]

I trust he is resting in splendor.

[yarddog]

I think in Florida, if someone dies while not in a hospital or attended by a physician, an autopsy is required.

I suspect Texas has similar laws.

[EEGator]

Yeah, 79 year old overweight people never die. He complained of not feeling well the night before his death. Likely a heart attack. Save the stupid BS for the DU trash.

[doorgunner69]

"We discovered the judge in bed, a pillow over his head. His bed clothes were unwrinkled," said Poindexter.

Yep, nothing suspicious there.

Not sure about TX, but in some states if the decedent is in the current care of a Physician and that Physician will sign a death certificate then the autopsy can be waived. This, of course is if the family agrees to waive.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Are you kidding. I don’t want to die in my sleep.

[funfan]

Well especially after seeing the picture of Obama giving the ranch owner an award in 2015. I would love to know who all was in Mr Scalia’s hunting party.
