Not the news I expected or wanted to hear. But if true, so sad. The only thing that ever bothered me and I never brought it up so as not to be hurtful: When the Lt's wife made her first public statement, she ended it with something like "And he always came home to ME". I found that odd and not something I would likely say or point out in the event of the death of my DH. Perhaps I am just odd myself, but the inflection and bitterness I perceived was noteworthy. It was not about him being a family man or wonderful husband. It was almost pointed, as if a veiled message to another woman... Weird
I'm lost...what is Mister Essy? When did this come up? Help someone who hasn't followed this all that closely. Thanks!
Statements in media packages: LG threatening her.
I bought the whole 'really into the job and LE and the right thing to do' persona. The poster above stating that she felt disillusioned like when she discovered there was no Santa really resonated here.When I first saw LT's photos, I felt, on a gut level, that he was a preening, self-centered, shallow kind of person. OK, I said it. Deep down I thought suicide. I didn't watch the funeral because I felt very uncomfortable about this even then. I'm sure many here also felt the same way, but did not say so. I wanted to be open to all ideas. Well, he had his 15 minutes of fame, and then some. Who else is involved? I guess we can't even imagine.

Now the whole fox lake internal audit process that "he was participating in" makes sense: they were investigating HIM.
OT .. I really don't remember that as a child. Perhaps I was an early :websleuther: and was just proud that I had found it out :floorlaugh:
My mind was absolutely blown when I read the headline in the Trib (we live right next to Fox Lake). I had long concluded suicide, and I was aware of the investigation, but I had never thought of him being the target of said investigation. I am angered. My subdivision has a blue ribbon on its sign placed there in support of him I want to rip down today!
Seems this is not over yet. Waiting to see what the fallout is. FFS what people will do for money etc. Maddening!
