Cibolo Creek Ranch owner recalls Scalia’s last hours in Texas(Pillow over his head)
Houston Chronicle ^ | February 14 | John MacCormack

Posted on 02/14/2016 1:37:21 PM PST by PghBaldy

"We discovered the judge in bed, a pillow over his head. His bed clothes were unwrinkled," said Poindexter.

"He was lying very restfully. It looked like he had not quite awakened from a nap," he said. Scalia,79, did not have a pulse and his body was cold, and after consulting with a doctor at a hospital in Alpine, Poindexter concluded resuscitation would have been futile, He then contacted federal authorities, at first encountering a series of answering services because he was calling on a weekend.

here the police are called in and then they wait for the EMT to pronounce dead. Then the cops call the M.E to get the paper work signed and declared dead.
If the person is alone and found in the morning then an autopsy is done.

This is for a private person and yet we have a SCOTUS judge of all people and nada is done and yet they now state it was a heart attack, oh wait this morning they said natural causes.

They don’t even know how he died and yet no autopsy, very weird.

No autopsy is all I needed to hear, he was murdered.

It’s the next step for the fascists to complete the takeover.

Rest in Peace Justice Scalia.

I don’t find it suspicious - I’ll occasionally put a pillow over my face for light pressure on my sinuses and eyes. And I’ve seen someone pass away very unexpectedly without thrashing or gasping or any commotion at all. I was in the cafeteria at Yale-New Haven hospital and a lady at the next table just switched-off. Didn’t slump over, close her eyes, grimace - nothing. Just...lights out. It was quite odd to see her, still as a statue, eyes open and completely unresponsive, sitting in front of her salad. Her lunch companions seemed more baffled than upset. This only lasted for ten seconds or so, and then all manner of response was undertaken, to no avail.

I told my wife "I'm tired" and sat on the floor (to make CPR easier) then told her to call 9-1-1.

Glad you're still here! :D

I feel the same way about all the info out there about the drug running overseen in some way by the CIA. There is something there. I might be wrong, but something needs explaining.

Interesting that since we have been in Afghanistan, heroin has made a comeback as a street drug. Make of that what you will, whether the pipeline goes through friend or foe, it is here.

Interesting.

The only things I even see wrong in the Reagan admin are things he couldn’t have known. I mean, he could have guessed that amnesty might not be a good long term strategy, but I remember amnesty — everyone in CA knew people (often the help at home) who had escaped horrors in Central America had been working hard and living here all that time... I can see how that mistake would be made.

There sure seems like there are some stories with the Bushes, Clintons, and drug running. When I read the stories, North and the others seem to know or be associated with these, but I have no idea which sources are true and which are not. I regret what i said. Probably the CIA individuals or whoever ran that stuff were more based on power and $$ than any partisan situation. Maybe we will live long enough to know the truth.

I bet we do agree on a lot.

She doesn’t know CPR.. She panicked anyway. My heart stopped twice. Defibrillator required. I lucked out! Okay, God helped me.

They also embalmed him at 330AM. WHo the heck does that? Either he was murdered, or they want us to think he was

When my father in law passed, they started embalming very quickly.

However, this is basically insuring that the conspiracy nuts will run with it. Honestly, it makes me very suspicious.

If the GOPe gives Obama the OK to appoint one, then we will know.

I could write a book about the mistakes of the Reagan administration too. It's just that Iran/Contra was not one of them, unless you consider the fact that the RINOs like Howard Baker and Nancy had asserted themselves in the 2nd term and agreed to hang those guys, and Meese, out to dry. That was the part that stung the most.

We all make fun of Hillary as the wicked witch of the west wing, but the truth is that Nancy Reagan was the prototype evil first lady. I'm sure she thought she was doing right by him but the fact remains that the 2nd term was a disaster. She was even coaching him in some live interviews feeding him answers. It was during the 2nd term that the Bork attack occurred ( and subsequent surrender by the administration ) and Amnesty came along and we all knew these were huge mistakes, and BTW, a perfect demonstration of what the (D)ummycrats would continually do in the future.

Amnesty was sold as "a one-time last thing, we promise!" In actuality it was needed to backfill the naturalization queue in later years. Now amnesty is back again, once more to backfill the naturalization queue for future years ( despite whatever Rubio, Bush and Cruz will say about 'legalization only', it's a lie, trust me ). They did the exact same thing with Bush41 no new taxes pledge, "we'll raise them just this once, we promise to unite and have your back!" Then they promptly hung it around his neck, accused him of breaking his promise and ran against him.

There are countless other lessons. Countless.

There sure seems like there are some stories with the Bushes, Clintons, and drug running. When I read the stories, North and the others seem to know or be associated with these ...

Well that's where you lose me. I don't remember anything about North or the others in those later scenarios. I suspect it is just fanciful theorizing like the stuff about him and his secretary and other nonsense. Occam's razor prevents me from associating North with either Clinton or Bush. I'm sure all kinds of people in the beltway are involved in drugs, why not, they steal everything that's not nailed down so skimming dope money seems logical. But it's those really kooky grand unified conspiracy theories that connect too many dots that end up providing cover for the real criminals down there ( Clinton inc ) who point at such theories and write off everything we have on them true or not.

Aside from the two biggest issues of today: Amnesty/Naturalization, and the Supreme Court, I can see a third item for the wish list - someone to kick open the vault of secrets in the District Of Criminals. If it is Trump who is elected, there may be a chance to break the chain of incoming/outgoing Presidential executive orders that locks down the records of the preceding President. That is something I want to live to see. It is apparent that no FOIA request will ever pry open that vault, but at some point we need to see the contents. God willing, we'll get a glimpse back to Clinton too.

Phil Leotardo didn’t die of a heart attack. You must have missed the episode where the SUV backs over his head.

I said he had a clawing at his chest heart attack stumbling around in Fred Sanford style minus telling his wife he’s on his way to see her in heaven

I made no claim he died

You on the other hand are very dead and you deserved it

In fact you deserved worse.....Janice should have mutilated you slowly first

In fact you should have been killed like Phil wanted to kill Tony Blundetto

Phil btw got shot first and then his head run over
