"What kind of logic is that? The book has been out for a long time. Even if there was something new in the republished version, it is still out. Him being dead changes nothing. "
The republished book attracts attention - it is number one on the Amazon list of Crenshaw books, while the old version is number 45. Is this enough reason to kill Crenshaw? Maybe, maybe not.
"The reality is that Dr. Crenshaw is just one more in a line of people who have tried to make something off their connection to this case, real or imagined. He lied in his book. He did not see what he wrote. He was not one of the doctors that treated Kennedy. The doctors that were there do not back him up. "
From the Amazon review - " In the aftermath, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) called Crenshaw’s book "a fabrication." But JAMA’s claim did not hold up in court and Crenshaw subsequently prevailed in a defamation suit against JAMA. "
Again, the book is out. His death didn't change this. In fact, he got more attention by dying. Where is the logic in using this as a motive to kill him?
I saw the bit about JAMA. Court cases like this turn on more than whether he was telling the truth. He wasn't. That case doesn't change the fact.
