Argentinian prosecutor was scheduled to testify today before their Congress about corruption and malfeasance accusations he had made about President Cristina Kirchner. He committed suicide last night after warning, "I could be found dead over this." I have a sneaky suspicion he had decided on suicide and wanted to do it in a way that would cause maximum embarrassment to her, but I can't blame anyone that has difficulty accepting that whatever the evidence.

An Argentine prosecutor who accused President Cristina Kirchner of covering up Iran’s involvement in the country’s worst ever terrorist attack has been found dead, hours before he was due to present his evidence in parliament.
Alberto Nisman, 51, had spent the past decade investigating the 1994 bombings of a Buenos Aires Jewish centre, which killed 85 people.
Two years ago he began working on a 300-page dossier – due to be presented to a parliamentary committee on Monday afternoon – which used extensive wiretaps to unravel the mystery of the attack at the Argentine Israelite Mutual Association building (AMIA), for which no one has ever been convicted.
He knew that the revelations in his dossier were going to cause a huge outcry. The stridently anti-Kirchner newspaper Clarin said that he had told one of their reporters on Wednesday: “I could be dead by the end of this.”

Re: Talk about grounds for a conspiracy theory
This is really getting bizarre. Now President Kirchener has reversed herself and says the death was definitely not suicide--meaning it was murder--and it turns out the door was not really locked and there was even a secret passage.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Argentine President Cristina Fernandez said Thursday she's "convinced" prosecutor Alberto Nisman did not commit suicide as more questions arose in the death of the man who had accused the president of a cover-up in the nation's worst terrorist attack.
In a letter published by the state news agency Telam, Fernandez said all the questions about Nisman's death "have been converted into certainty. The suicide (I'm convinced) was not a suicide."
Fernandez' letter contrasts with the one she wrote Monday saying she believed Nisman took his life.
The 51-year-old Nisman was found slumped in the bathroom of his apartment Sunday night with a bullet wound in his head. He was lying next to a .22-caliber handgun and a bullet casing...
On Wednesday, a locksmith said the service door wasn't fully locked at the apartment where Nisman was found shot dead. Investigators have also revealed the existence of a previously unknown entry as new doubts about what happened continued to pop up.
Viviana Fein, the lead investigator into Nisman's death, said Monday the death appeared to be suicide and there were no indications anyone else was involved. The apartment's door was locked from the inside and there were no signs it had been forced, she said.
But family and friends of Nisman immediately rejected the finding and protesters took to the streets demanding justice for the prosecutor who had spent 10 years investigating the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people.

Details began trickling out that raise questions about the suicide hypothesis.
No suicide note was found and a test of Nisman's hand showed no gunpowder residue, though Fein said that may have been due to the small caliber of the gun. Also feeding suspicion was the rapid appearance of national Security Secretary Sergio Berni at the apartment, since he is a government, not a judicial, official. He denied he altered the crime scene.
Then the locksmith who opened the back door to give investigators access to Nisman's apartment said it hadn't been properly locked, raising speculation about whether a killer might have entered or exited the 13th-story apartment.
After testifying to investigators Tuesday, the locksmith, who gave his name to journalists only as Walter, said he was called to let authorities into Nisman's apartment.
The front door had a keyless system so he decided to go in through the service door. Authorities said Monday that Nisman's mother hadn't been able to open the service door because a key was in the lock on the other side.
"The service door wasn't closed. I simply pushed the key and entered in two minutes," the locksmith told reporters.
He said he was able to quickly open the door with the help of a hook. "It took me longer to pack up my things (tools) than to open the door."
He added, "If someone entered or not, I don't know."
The official news agency Telam, meanwhile, said investigators had found a third access to the home, a narrow passage holding air conditioning equipment that connects to a neighboring apartment occupied by an unidentified foreigner. They were investigating a seemingly recent footprint and fingerprint found inside.
Fein said the gun found beside Nisman was registered to another man, Diego Lagomarsino, described by officials as a colleague of Nisman, who had given it to him.

Unless you can work in the Fed, the Israelis and Climate Change, it's just a second-rate conspiracy.
Re: Talk about grounds for a conspiracy theory
The investigation the prosecutor was about to report on was about the alleged cover-up by the Argentinian government--in exchange for favorable oil import and grain export deals--of an Iranian bombing in Argentina of an Israeli cultural mission that killed more than 80 Jews, and he said the evidence was there.jellowrestling wrote:Unless you can work in the Fed, the Israelis and Climate Change, it's just a second-rate conspiracy.
