It took them two weeks to cook this up?

As the tin foil hat nuts like to say, he may have been "suicided!"

"Shocking" new stories seem to be pointing to a Hunter S. Thompson murder! The NY Post is there:

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.

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.

And this gem...

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."

I wonder if the same guy who killed Thompson also set the charges? Hmm, maybe he also brought down the Wellstone plane? You know, if the "Bush Cartel" had assassins this good, why wouldn't they just have Kim Jong Il killed?

Maybe Kim Jong Il is the assassin!!!

Crap, I'm next...
