Conspicuously absent from the NYT account --> wound from gunshot/gun as reported by ABC news yesterday.

Also, conspicuously missing --> statements from Obambi and Barney Frank (who has known this guy for 16 years)

shrug...

There was a gun involved? So are we supposed to believe that this man shot AND hanged himself?

Of course I could be wrong, but it seems to me that any man with a 5-year old daughter would find a different method of suicide. Would he risk having her find his body in the basement? Very unlikely, IMO.. For that matter, how did his wife happend to find him BEFORE DAWN anyway? Did she hear something that alarmed her? hmmm?
