The victim was in his 40s, single, and there was no forced entry into his home. Then his SUV was found in SE DC. Sounds like a mad trick gone bad because they did not get paid.

We always ask Obama and Congress to do things for us because “it’s the right thing to do.” Well, getting involved here would be the right thing to do.

Is there some insinuation here that his choice in bars or partners had something to do with his death?
