#6 You know rat poison causes a "clotting disorder".
The most common rat poison, warfarin, prevents clotting. Anticoagulant rodenticides all kill by inhibiting the process in which the liver produces clotting agents in the blood. Over time, Mr. Rat eats too much rodenticide, loses the ability to clot efficiently, and finally dies from uncontrolled bleeding. Sounds like Yasser was clotting too much.

#10 Feathers from a pillow can ALSO cause clotting! So maybe the pillow they were pushing down on his face contributed to his death.

#11 So, what they're saying is he was one big, walking scab?
Eeeeeeeeeeewww!
But, if you go to the Centers for Disease Control web site, you find something interesting. Apparently DIC is a side effect of smallpox vaccine. No sh**! Check it out!

Wonder if that is how he got "poisoned"? Bad batch of vaccine? And what the hell was he taking smallpox vaccine for?

Ok, better knock it off. I'm sounding like a moonbat......

#15 Anti-coagulants are given regularly for certain heart conditions. Wonder if he got bad medical treatment and OD'd on them?

Very possibly. I used to take Warfarin (Coumadin) for an irregular heart beat. Frequent testing is required to check Prothrombin (Clotting) time. A little of that stuff goes a loooooong way. I hope he ingested a pound....
