San Francisco homicide detectives investigating the case last June were in the midst of their busiest year in more than a decade. The theory they came up with to explain the death struck de la Plaza's family and friends as unlikely, even absurd: that he had done drugs, stabbed himself, then washed or disposed of the knife before dying.

“Something is definitely funky here”
What’s that supposed to mean?
Uh, just where were you last June?
Have they considered the blood went from outside the front door through the kitchen and to where the victim was found? Perhaps he called his friend from his cell while he was still out and shortly afterward was mugged or attacked only to live long enough to stumble through the front door and in his drunken and injured/dying state accidently hit the computer mouse which in turn connected to google, and he died.
It is a mistake Francois to assume that San Francisco is an American city.
“Uh, just where were you last June?”
Quite frankly, I don’t see how this line of questioning helps my children.
This sounds almost as fishy as a ex-prostitute turned madam who had the names of thousands of washington power players suddenly committing suicide.
From the article:
His doors were locked and neither a bloody weapon nor a suicide note were found.Blood was tracked from the kitchen, through the living room and out the front door.
He had stab wounds to his neck, chest and stomach.
San Francisco homicide detectives ... The theory they came up with to explain the death: that he had done drugs, stabbed himself, then washed or disposed of the knife before dying.
You have a problem with that theory?
/sarcasm
In all honesty, not even the OJ jury would buy that crap.
Um .... Les Miserables??? Loaf of bread or something???
This story brings to mind a cartoon I saw many years ago. I did a google and was unable to find it, so let me describe:
Scene:
Commercial kitchen with an old fashioned hand powered meat grinder. Lots of blood and meat streaming out of it and piled on the floor. A hand on the handle leading to the upper arm which ends in the input opening of the grinder. One detective says to another, “Looks like the most determined case of suicide I’ve ever seen”.
A “magic” knife made from the victim’s (say, the first report of that the madam’s death, on Fox News Radio, said “victim of suicide”...), any way, a “magic” knife fashioned from frozen blood of the deceased, of course.
SF either has one of the lowest or is the lowest homicide resolution city in California. Basically if the investigators can't resolve the case in 72 hrs the likelihood of the perp getting away goes way up.
Or 40 drunk college kids who spray paint a smiley face before they fall in a river and drown.
Suicide!
It can’t be something else.
Why would an american murder a French?
Just a short follow up. I sent this article to a close relative that was a member of SFPD at the time this “suicide” took place.
She told me that the cops knew and wrote it as murder, but when it reached the DA’s office it was mysteriously changed to suicide. IOW, it wasn’t the cop’s doing. Something very fishy at higher levels.
I know just the man for this case! Let's roll!:
