Maybe his rope went off while he was cleaning it.

Well I’ll give you that — the two cases are spectacularly similar in that they are both...uh...hangings...?

I don’t have time or respect for your position to note the six obvious completely different circumstances between the cases.

Obamacide.

How does that happen? Do you put a rope around your neck, get up on a chair and not intend to die?

Wait a minute, they must mean that he didn’t intend to die....but someone else intended to make sure he did.

This man was obviously under enormous pressure
Why now? And how were others involved?
He was NOT in this alone

Supposedly he was to receive an $850,000 bonus- and before that he kills himself?

It smells of some unbearable coercion as much as of a guilty conscience

According to AHN Media, there was a “gun and a gunshot wound”. They are quoting a police source for that information:”

He probably shot himself AFTER he hung himself...shooting himself first would have been impractical...

[FReepaholic]

...Auto-erotic asphyxiation, ya think?...

Or made to look that way.

The police said that suicides by hanging often tie their hands behind their back.

How the Hell do you do that? I have trouble sometimes just tying my shoes, and they're in FRONT of me!

[jiggyboy]

LOL (oops I mean lol) sorry, shhh, ok...

[K-oneTexas]

My first thought too!

Thanks for posting this five posts above mine on the same topic.

Really; thanks.

She wasn’t the daughter of a congressman, so it didn’t happen.

He probably shot himself AFTER he hung himself...

In the back of the head...no doubt.

HOW do you “unintentionally” hang yourself???

Ever get a tie caught in a paper shredder?

[xzins]

What? Accidental hanging?

Yep, he accidentally duct-taped his mouth, his feet, and his hands behind his back. Then, with a rope around his neck, he accidentally pushed the stool he was standing on.

(satire)

Stupid liberals... so afraid of guns... they kill themselves the hard way.

An exceptionaslly young Senior VP for such a large organization. Exceptionally young. One wonders what made him so good he was THE choice for the position.

Can say the same thing about Bill Gates, Jeff Bozos of Amazon etc. Age does not matter.

“24” has turned so bad, that I’ve been rooting for Tony and Jon Voight since episode 5.

[Abathar]

It’s a sick thought, but were his pants down around his ankles? A lot of hangings are accidental during erotic play.

Don’t sweat the monkey’s pain. He’s back every day for more (and gets to spend a good bit of the time at the pub).
