Scalia Death Reports Sound Odd

right now it does seem to be confirmed by more sources.

but usually we would get a statement from the family about how "sadly ........... passed away"..

but in this case the reports mention fbi and others investigating and how someone went to check and found a body.

so did news leak of his death before family could be informed ?

he was in horrible health and drank and smoke a lot and ate a lot of bad foods .but i thought he would be one of those types that would live forever like kissinger and billy graham.

guest ranch (hotel) so it probably leaked pretty fast. I'm not surprised by fed involvement because he is a Supreme Court Justice.
