Just read a statement Eric said that there was no self harm. Maybe the son was murdered. Autopsy next week.

“Adrienne and I are devastated by the loss of our beloved son Eric Chase last night. Details still unclear. Thoughts, prayers appreciated,” Bolling tweeted Saturday afternoon. Despite reports that Eric Chase had committed suicide, Bolling tweeted later: “Authorities have informed us there is no sign of self harm at this point. Autopsy will be next week.”

Anyone remember the night before the election when Gloria Alred marched out about a dozen women who accused Trump of perverted actions? He had his lawyer draft a letter to Alred and they disappeared off the face of the planet.

Exactly right UC Boulder the most leftwing college in the universe, the home of Ward Churchill, if it got out he was Bollings son, I don’t see how he would have NOT been harassed 24/7. That is BEFORE the allegations got out.

ACCORDING to the Daily Mail, accuser is the same woman who accused Bill O’Reilly of harassment/ One wonders how much she is getting paid.

Harrassed on Twitter?!? He went to the People’s Republic of Boulder BRAINWASHING center. One of the most left wing universities in the most left wing city in the known universe. The place is like an ongoing Burning Man conference. I am sure he was harrassed at a level none of us can imagine IF it got out he was Bollings son.

My daughter got her degree in physics from there. At the time they had 3 Nobel prize laureates on their physics staff.

That is a tiny fraction of their enrolled students, however. Most of them are business students and their business program is a joke.

As a side note, my daughter moved to Seattle upon graduation and I haven’t spoken to her in almost three years and counting. Just saying.

This is why you’ll see me posting things like this here: https://youtu.be/LTeKpWX0fb0

I have spent a lot of time thinking why we are so divided.

How horrible that the kids of conservative ex are treated lower than low. Everything is anti-bully but conservative people are fair game. They killed him.

I hope, for Eric and his wife’s sake, that his son didn’t harm himself. Nineteen year old kids don’t usually just drop dead either. Nothing would surprise me on one of the liberal campus’s today. These people are vicious. If he was harmed I really hope they find the people or person that did it.

Eric has been saying all along that he was going to fight the charges against him. As close as he and his son were I can’t see the son committing suicide over this.

Eric loved his son. He mentioned him frequently on air.

Is there proof that he did it, or just some liberal jackwagon accusing him of it.

That is the question.

It’s easy to point a finger and make an accusation and have sycophants back you up so you can take out an opponent.

No doubt in my mind that Fox had digital forensics all over this in the investigation. If they fired him, they have pretty compelling evidence that the picture or pictures came from Bollings’s phone.

Bolling comes from a baseball/jock culture, and these antics aren’t unusual in that scene even into middle age.

I don’t know what happened, but this is certainly more believable than not. Fox would be exposed to a terrible lawsuit unless they had certainty.

Would that be the same investigative team that just proved payne is innocent?

You do not know the truth regardless of how you frame it i.e. he’s a jock so it must be true. Idiotic

No. It just has the ring of truth. It’s a perfectly believable scenario.

“...If they fired him, they have pretty compelling evidence...”

You’re probably right.

I just hate how our side seems to swallow every piece of bullsh*t the left puts out and automatically assume it’s true.

We eat our own too often.

I agree with you, but we have to strive for clarity and have integrity. We don’t know what happened, but I am certain Fox Legal signed off on it, so they have compelling digital forensic evidence. If they don’t, they’re really exposed legally.

I know that the word is that Bolling will mount an aggressive legal attack on his job and reputation. Who knows? If so, odds are it’s being done to placate an irate spouse, delaying the inevitable exposure & blow up.

This happens all the time with spouses. A cheater chooses the path of least resistance - lying. It’s incredibly short sighted and tends to make matters worse. But it’s common.

Lots of busted spouses swear to their false story and offer a lie detector test to prove their innocence. A lot of these people end up giving a parking lot confession right before the scheduled test. Some go in, lie, and fail the test. It’s amazing but true.

Lots of women swear up and down to paternity with 100% certainly only to be exposed as liars with DNA tests.

When someone’s deceit catches up to them, they’re capable of saying or doing anything to postpone the inevitable.

I take no pleasure in this. I always liked Bolling. He has had the worst day of his life. Mrs Bolling, too. I can’t imagine their pain.

You gotta play the odds of this. Odds are he’s busted. I hope my read on the odds is wrong.

Yes, good points. If it’s drugs, it could’ve been accidental overdose too. That’s all I am saying. Unless he left a note, how do we know he just didn’t use too much?
