'Karl Rove's IT guru' Mike Connell dies in plane crash 
A top level Republican IT consultant who was set to testify in a case alleging GOP election tampering in Ohio died in a plane crash late Friday night.

From the article: "He has flown his private plane for years without incident. I know he was going to DC last night, but I don't know why. He apparently ran out of gas, something I find hard to believe. I am not saying that this was a hit nor am I resigned to this being simply an accident either. I am no expert on aviation and cannot provide an opinion on the matter. What I am saying, however, is that given the context, this event needs to be examined carefully."

"Mr. Connell has confided that he was being threatened, something that his attorneys also told the judge in the Ohio election fraud case," concluded Alexandrovna.

The Smiley Faces 
Hartland's Matt Kruziki was one of many young men who drowned mysteriously. Some suspect these are murders by a demonic gang that works with a smile.

Very thorough article on possible new developments in the Smiley Face Killers case. It's from November October but somehow I missed it. Better late than never.
