In all seriousness, you hate to see things like that in a smaller community like Columbia. It isn't the teeming metropolis where this sort of thing gets buried in the back pages of the local paper. Hope they catch the animals who did this.
Very sad story.
You see this????
Yes it is. I heard about this story lurking in a chat room. Some were saying that there's a connection between this, and other recent researcher's deaths. (i.e, typical tinfoilery). Reading the article though, I came away believing it was most likely a random act of violence. I decided to post it in the (admittedly remote) hope maybe someone would have some info they could pass along.
May God bless his family during this difficult time.
It caught my eye because one of my girls went to UM and I have some FReeper friends there. I'll ping zip.
:...chairman of the MU department of molecular microbiology..."
Uh oh, another microbiologist dead in suspicious circumstances. Paging Art Bell!

Columbia is not a teeming metropolis but it surely is a violent, thug and dope dealer laden town that is packed full of radical leftists. I used to stay overnight there when traviling west but it got too risky, IMHO.
I want to get all conspiratorial, and right now it just looks like he ran into a random scumbag.
I have a good friend who is in the English department there. He's not a liberal, but I suppose he's probably an exception. And come to think of it the university press put an end to a very successful series he edited, probably because it wasn't P.C. enough.
I found him on the faculty roster here, but I can't seem to find any further information about him:

Another microbiologist bites the dust.
I wonder if the "protein" research relates to mad-cow disease.
It appears that others have posted the "death of scientists" theory. It should be a lot play.
Ooops, should have read It should get a lot of play.
Was that Siddiqi?
Update... they found the murderer... long after the murderer’s suicide:

Jeong Im COLUMBIA, 1/9/12 (Beat Byte) — January 7 marks the 7th anniversary of the brutal 2005 stabbing death of Mizzou biochemistry professor Jeong H. Im, Ph.D. In an unusual move given the age of the case, MU police department officials announced last week they are sending the case files to an organized crime research center.
I don’t know if the slain researcher was a US citizen or was some other nationality. Taiwanese or Mainlander, or what.
Trivia : Around the time Hoag was committing suicide in early August 2012, this apparently unrelated thing happened...
