Authorities call census worker murder a suicide

After a census worker in southeastern Kentucky was found dead in the woods with a rope around his neck, there was little doubt that this was a murder.

Later, there was no doubt at all.

But today, investigators for the Kentucky State Police said the 51-year-old had actually committed suicide and tried to make it look like a murder.

Pardon my frankness, but I'm calling bullshit on that explanation.

Believe me, this was a murder. Unfortunately, authorities think people will believe this cockamamie story about it being a suicide that was poorly carried out. Authorities aren't even trying to sound credible.

Friends had warned the victim that he was at risk of violence while doing his census work. So are we truly expected to believe this was a suicide?

Anyone who'd believe this was suicide is playing right into the hands of the web of powerful individuals who have long given shelter to violent criminals.

  1. I agree, this was clearly murder...He was a cancer survivor who went through a full course of chemo. Why would somebody fight so hard for his life just to commit suicide afterward?
