The cause of death on the certificate has been given as cardiac arrest, organ failure, a septic knee and arthritisInfection. Could have been the cause. Another possibility is a blood clot in his knee travelling to his brain. Not that uncommon.
The thought of a CIA hit causes me to smile however.

"... Another possibility is a blood clot in his knee travelling to his brain. Not that uncommon." Most likely. Deep Vein Thrombosis resulting in a blood clot to the brain.
Quite correct; Not that uncommon at all.
