[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

It is not about conspiracies. It is about a democrat making the irresponsible decision to have order an autopsy and toxicology report. She did not care. Even at the link it quotes her as saying he probably died of a heart attack. Probably? hello? The ramifications of his death are so significant that an autopsy should have been required.

As for the family, they are grieving. You cannot hang this decision on them. To them he is their beloved Father/Grandfather/husband... To the rest of us he was a vital line of defense against a power usurping left. We deserve the peace of mind knowing that our government CARES to confirm his cause of death, even as it was probably natural causes.

It seems odd that when someone dies alone in an unanticipated circumstance with no obvious cause that an autopsy wasn't standard procedure. In those circumstances, autopsies are standard practice before a coroner gives a cause of death. It also seems odd that someone as important as a Supreme Court judge travels without some kind of security.

There's probably nothing to it. But because of the omissions, there will be conspiracy theories. With the description of his medical problems, going hunting in TX one last time might has just been a "bucket list" decision.

Sad that in this age of no privacy we'll never know.

Yes.
