Kelly’s death comes just four days after he pleaded guilty to a scheme involving $8.5 million in fraud at O’Hare Airport. It was the second conviction this year -- he still faced trial along with the ex-governor, in June. Kelly had been indicted three times since 2007 but refused to become a cooperating witness. When he pleaded guilty to the O’Hare scheme Tuesday, Kelly spoke of feeling intense pressure by prosecutors to abandon his loyalty to Blagojevich and cooperate with the feds.

So he had held out this far, and finally decided to plead guilty. He then mentioned on Tuesday that-

"Kelly spoke of feeling intense pressure by prosecutors to abandon his loyalty to Blagojevich and cooperate with the feds."

Those were basically his last words. If there is anyone, anyone on this board who mentions the word "conspiracy", then I don't care to know you. This is simple and clear cut. This man was murdered. He was murdered because he was going to finally sing. That is a very difficult thing for Americans to stomach. We don't want to hear that. Ted Kennedy tried his best to save that poor girl, and he had to live with the pain of that night. Poor Vince Foster, he was so distraught. All those people in Arkansas- what a terrible coincidence.

Thomas Jefferson said- " There is not a truth existing which I fear or would wish unknown to the whole world." This is such a truth. There are murderers among us, and not all of them are gangbangers and hobos- some of them wear nice suits, and go on CNN and talk about Healthcare and walk where Jefferson once walked.

Aspirin is better than if he had killed himself by shooting himself in the back five times...

Maybe there was a conspiracy to kill him.

I see. Kelly was involved in a conspiracy that reaches the Oval Office. I don’t know if he was murdered but...

It’s not that complicated, really. The problem is, the popular culture has abused the concept of “conspiracy theory” to the point where the phrase is now synonymous with “conspiracy.” It’s like calling a social security number a “social.”

Maybe he was anticipating a headache, like, from a bullet?

I agree. Blago is ‘deeply saddened’ alright. He was about to be exposed for the crook he really is. Suicide? More like Chicacide.

Oh great, now years of the media telling us how common death by aspirin is..its the drug of choice.

We are right back to life under the clintons, blatant flaunting of the law and no real prosecutions...

I know its early , but we all know what will become of all this....

It could be worse, didn’t they have a guy whose head was supposedly eaten by a lap dog?..then they found it in a dumpster a couple weeks later..was ruled natural causes?
man this gets old..

Cheney has a common but unfortunate accident with birdshot and its nonstop news for months, democrats could sacrifice people on tv and blame it on someone else. how would we know? nobody would bother to report it.

Don't worry, Hollywood celebrities will figure it out.
