Republican I.T. man killed in a small plane crash was just subpoenaed
Connell had been served with a subpoena to appear in the federal courtroom in
Ohio at the same College Park, MD airport where his single engine plane reportedly
took off from last night, on his final solo flight...


http://www.bradblog.com/?p=6765

Connell could have brought down the whole gang of bush/ Blackwell/Rove/Gonzales

Now I know accidents happen, small planes sometimes crash, and that people
are still trying to use the courts to enforce the "rule of law" but to have Connell's
plane crash right after he gets a subpoena that might have been about the US Attorneys
being fired, Don Siegleman, and Karl Rove's missing e mails is kind of outside of the odds of
"Random Chance."

But I am sure Connell's death will be well covered by the media .... :sarcasm:

1. Just as I am sure NTSB will be thorough and publish all of their findings.
Now, I am going to sit here and look out the window. Wait for a pig to fly by.

2. Let me just say...
that if I was about to testify on anything regarding the BFEE...

or even if I was just an outspoken prominent opponent of the BFEE...

I wouldn't be taking any small planes anywhere.

7. I wonder if you can be in a small plane and not fly it. I wonder if it can be flown remotely. nt

3. Kinda reminds me of Salem Bin Laden
As in Osama's older brother Salem Bin Laden, who bankrolled Chimpy's first company "Arbusto Energy" and was due to testify before the SEC about the time Poppy was running for President. Until his plane took an unexpected hard right turn into some high voltage power lines.

If you accept the premise that Osama Bin Laden went from a CIA asset to a terrorist determined to destroy America, you think somebody murdering his brother might have something to do with pissing him off?

12. Interesting. Never heard about that one before.
He must have been one of Osama's favorite brothers, then. Doesn't Osama have something like 40 sibs?

6. "was just subpoenaed "?? I don't think that's what is meant.
I think it merely says that he was served there for the court appearances 6 weeks ago.

11. Hey, hey. Go easy on yourself.

That was easy to get tripped up by. Unless the guy had just been given a NEW subpeona, the inclusion of that info was really kindof superfluous, if not sensational and misleading.

8. Perhaps it was suicide?

Could Connell deliberately crashed his own plane to avoid talking?
