Yeah...There was probably a better way to do this.

It sounds like Keystone Cops...on both sides.

It could just be a personality conflict with the "female" Mayor.

He probably wasnt paying attention to her civilian authority and she wasnt aquiescing to his military uniform & bars, and therein began a small military Man vs. Civilian yokel chic conflict juxtaposed over a backdrop of roll playing fantasy and sexual tension...LOL...I crack myself up.

Going in and proclaiming that he was "in charge" was his first mistake. ~grin~

Anyway, he looked at the items so he probably has a good idea of what was there. The computer and the briefcase will be given to either his wife or his boss...and it'll all shake out.

Did you see what I found at that other link, about how he (and he alone) died?

He went off a bridge. Blunt head trauma would be a possibile injury. I was driving on the interstate one night going into Allentown Pa in an 18 wheeler and hit a pot hole. I was strapped in and still hit the top of the cab. Was he and he alone not wearing a seat belt, going through a rollover on the way down, or hit bridge debree in the water?

[cva66snipe]

Hope so.

"The state medical examiner's office said the cause of death for all but one victim was drowning. U.S. Army Capt. Andrew Clements, 35, died from blunt head trauma."

Simply coincidence.

If someone wanted to knock him off there are a billion ["literally"] easier ways to do it.

Other than a barge smashing into a bridge and killing a bunch of folks then having a blumbering Army Officer sent to check things out who runs up on a highstrung bossy chic....there is no story here.

"The bridge collapse could have been serendipity, a cover excuse of convenience that just happened to happen when it happened."

Did I miss any?

I would think his blunt head injury was from the van being crushed (Did they not find some cars under the bridge edge that was in the water?)

Nearly a dozen cars plunged into the river. Among the dead motorists were Clements, who was to have been promoted to major next week, and the family's German shepherd "Ostar." The family's new silver Honda Odyssey van was crushed and rendered nearly unrecognizable by the crash. The dog's travel carrier was perched atop remnants of the van, giving Clements' wife, Nicole, the first clue that her husband had been involved, family members told a hometown newspaper.

Someone put a Pinger on his car obviously.....and Andrew Clements is the name of Ultrman?? WEIRD. But the dead guy had a LOT of MONEY from someplace to have such an expensive house and car.

"Easier than hitting him on the head and tossing him into the drink?"

Yeah...

How about knocking him off on a Federal Military Base as opposed to someplace where civilian authority investigates it.

No story here?

Why then did he falsely identify himself? Why did he pass bad checks in town or so the accusation goes? and Why is the FBI looking for him?

Strike three you're out!

There's definitely something wrong here

The blunt trauma to the head causing death -- needs more definition -- blunt as in concrete and rebar or blunt as in the proverbial lead pipe to the back of the head?

I'm curious how we are so easily finding stuff on this guy? I don't recall medical examiniers posting on the web their findings.

Its almost like were reading a crafted cover story hat was made to be found. Dig a little here dig a little there and you can find out anything you want about this guy -- try compairing that with info of the victims of the OKC bombing or world trade center --

We know this guy's cars his dog his house where he came from duty sation wis his flight(s) across the US the laptop the briefcase and his coroners report

-- is anyone else amazed???

[Rocketman]

I see you like playing both ends against the middle.

Conspiracy -- not a conspiracy

Suppose our fearless captain was trading secrets . . . Suppose that Mr. X was his contact . . . Suppose that the FBI was already on their trail . . . Suppose that Mr. X knew the jig was up and decided that opportunity was knocking for him to eliminate . . .

So what then what do we have left:
1) A whole lot of money.
2) A body with trama to the head
3) The FBI
4) Mister X

You decide

I still think we are reading a cover story

[Ann Archy]

I agree...but most of them don't end up in a mystery.
