Or maybe he had one of these, and wouldn't sell it. Very collectable now, y'know.

Or he might have just been very depressed at the thought he wasn't going to get away with all the money he stole and might concievable end up in prison...

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, it turns into a Grisham novel...

Actually, the irony is this guy quit before the shit hit the fan, and was actually a bit of a whistle blower.

How is that "irony", Grant? Remember Vincent Foster? Repubs said Hillary had him wacked for having evidence about a piddling 200,000 real estate scam. I for one can't wait to let the Cheney=murderer speculation begin.

It won't happen. Oddly, Republicans have to be found with blood all over their hands standing over a corpse before anyone says something might be a bit shady. Clinton was accused of things through connections that X-Files junkies would find strained.

Hm....wonder why that is. I still remember that Iran-Contra was brought to light by a foreign newspaper, and the US papers didn't cover it for months for fear of losing access to the Reagan White House.
