New York Post's Page Six, March 4, 2005:
SUICIDE FUELS CONSPIRACY BUZZ
WAS Hunter S. Thompson's mysterious death really a suicide?
There are some serious irregularities surrounding the demise of the
gonzo author, who was found shot to death in the kitchen of his Woody
Creek, Colo., ranch on Feb. 20, and local cops seemed to have done a
lackluster job of investigating.
Police reports obtained by the Rocky Mountain News note that cops
arriving on the scene heard shots being fired, that Thompson's son,
Juan, was allowed to be alone with the body, and that there was
something odd about the gun Thompson supposedly used to kill himself.
Before his death, Thompson seemed in good spirits and was not known to
be depressed. And considering his long-winded style, the absence of a
note seems strange - he'd typed only the single word "counselor."
There were no eyewitnesses to the shooting, only an "earwitness" -
Thompson's wife, Anita, who was on the phone with him at the time and
who later drank scotch with the corpse. Her account of the incident is
inconsistent: She alternately has said that she heard a loud, muffled
noise and that she heard nothing but clicking.
The behavior of Juan, who was in the house at the time of the
shooting, also was unusual. Pitkin County Deputy Sheriff John
Armstrong said that when investigators arrived on the scene they heard
shots, but Juan assured them he had merely been firing off a salute to
his dead dad. Investigator Joseph DiSalvo also let Juan enter the
kitchen alone and drape a scarf over the body.
And in his report, Deputy Ron Ryan noted the semi-automatic Smith &
Wesson 645 found next to Thompson's body was in an unusual condition.
There was a spent shell casing, but although there were six bullets
left in the gun's clip, there was no bullet in the firing chamber, as
there should have been under normal circumstances.
DiSalvo said he did not check the gun, adding, "I think a bullet from
the magazine should have cycled into the chamber" unless there was a
"malfunction." A spent slug was found in the stove hood behind the
body.
Conspiracy theorists make much of the fact that Thompson had been
working on a far-fetched story about the World Trade Center attack at
the time of his death.
As Canada's Globe and Mail reported, Thompson had "stumbled across
what he felt was hard evidence showing the towers had been brought
down not by the airplanes that flew into them but by explosive charges
set off in their foundations."
[This story is not that far-fetched given the the lease holder of
tower 7 is caught on tape saying he had that tower "pulled" to avoid
spreading the fire.]
"Never in human history have such genocide and cruelty been witnessed.
Such a genocide was never seen in the time of the pharaohs nor
of Hitler nor of Mussolini."
