#1 No witnesses, eh? No spouse, housekeeper, ranch foreman? All on holiday for Valentine's Day?

#4 Not ruled a suicide so it doesn't fit the Clinton MO. What was the exact cause of death?

#5 It was a suicide. He held the pillow over his own face.

#6 On rare occasions I have been to fancy hotels I noticed they have pillows all over the bed. I spend most of the night in a pillow fight against myself. The pillow over his head may have been an unfortunate accident upon death in bed.

#7 I confess, I've been known to sleep with a pillow over my head if there are noises that are keeping me awake. That's not necessarily Scalia's explanation but if somebody really held a pillow over his head to suffocate him, would they have left it there?

#8 For many, many people with means, motive, and opportunity, Scalia's death is a wish come true.

West Texas is sparsely populated, so local law enforcement is unsophisticated - the kind of place where it would be easy to get away with murder, as long as no one looks too close.

Scalia may have had "several chronic ailments," but that doesn't mean that's what killed him. Chronic diseases do not typically sneak up and kill you in your sleep with no warning. But a quick injection of harmless KCl can, nicely mimicking a fatal heart attack, and can't be detected without a tox screen.

I'm deeply suspicious of what happened here. Without an autopsy or investigation, I'll never be convinced that Scalia died of natural causes.
