Condolences to the man’s friends and family.

I will always remember his appearance on SNL where he kicked Janet Reno in the balls.

[La Enchiladita]

I remember what a raw deal he got, thanks to drooling media.

Conspiracy will run galore.

[Red Badger]

Dead of what?..............Klintoonacide?.....

[GreenLanternCorps]

Any word as to what the cause was?

[coloradan]

Feebicide?

Something was just not right about that whole story. Not just the raw deal Jewell got, but something more. The FBI was definitely looking for something at Jewell's apartment that they knew was there.

I always wondered if the FBI hadn't planted something but Jewell found it and got rid of it before the search began.

[Orange1998]

Very limited information, seems the media wants to make another spectacle of him.

[iowamark]

Only 44 years old. Very sad.

[freekitty]

That’s very sad. Another part of the Clinton saga.

The Duke lacrosse players got the same treatment he did. I would like to see the players sue the hell out of some in the media - Whoreldo is one - who came right out and declared them guilty.

[fish hawk]

The guy was treated, by the media, like a lacrosse player.

Unfortunately, my memory of Jewell is a front page headline from a local paper..

“Rolly Polly Loser”

Poor guy. He got a raw deal.

Prayers to his family

Last I heard he took a job as a deputy in a small town. He was a pretty big guy...heart attack maybe?

[Orange1998]

If true he got the last laugh.

O.K., what’s his connection to the Clintons? A little pre-election cleanup?
