No matter what the circumstances of his death (suicide note, angle of trajectory, obvious motive) there are sure to be those who will claim foul play. The chances are 99.99999% that this was a suicide.

I certainly agree with you that it's most probable that he died by his own hand, and likely wrote the note himself, though the contents have yet to be released.

The question is, did he do so to in resopnse to a choice of doing so, or having something similar happen to his sixteen-year-old son or others for whom he cared.

Perhaps James Watkins, another Enron scandal figure, employed as a *telecommunications consultant* by the Enron financial partner firm of Arthur Anderson could tell us. If he too hadn't been found shot to death in his car, a piastol handy and a bullet in his head. Of course, it's not like he was found in Fort Marcy Park or anything....

I totally agree with you. I think he did commit suicide but I have to think it was to protect his loved ones. That way no one will ever be able to prove he didn't off himself all on his own.

It is amazing what fear and despair can cause a man to do. Your theory makes an eerie kind of sense after all the questionable deaths we've seen during the Clinton years. Even if the threat to his family was only implied or he inferred the threat from the fact that such powerful people were involved in the scandal, I'm sure he felt threatened. In that light, even if he did pull the trigger, there were a multitude of hands holding his fingers around the gun in the first place.

I wish a forensic pathologist would prove to all that it was a suicide, otherwise, I will entertain doubts in the back of my mind. In spite of his troubles, he had a lot to live for. In times of personal despair, it has been the thought of my children that prevented me from seriously contemplating ruining their lives by ending mine. He didn't seem the type of person to take the "easy way out" to escape the humiliating trials to come. I hope the truth of his death is proven one way or the other, along with the pressures surrounding him at that moment.

When I saw this I immediately thought how convenient- another dead scapegoat.

Yeah.
Another thread refers to this as somehow Clinton deaths related.
As I said there, I doubt it's an Arkancide.
But it's definitely an Enroncide.

Most suspicious.

I couldn't believe last night MSNBC's Brian Williams reporting on Baxter's death, and as part of the set-up, mentioned Vince Foster.

Totally inappropriate, I thought, but of course, anything, even subliminal, to give the impression that Bush and Clinton have corruption in common, is worth a few utterly tasteless, prime time insinuations.

Dang! I never considered that.

These waters are deep and murky.

Has anyone explored a possible connection between Enron VP Sherron Watkins and James Watkins other than the name?
