Arkancide Specializes in Imaginative Ways to Die

Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 43 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
Strange deaths have been a hallmark of Clinton associates since the 1980s. A wonder there are still people brave (or greedy) enough to court their favor.
A politician in Rochester visited a local cemetery in September 2016 and put a bullet in his head. He was facing an incipient indictment derived from the tangled mess of his business affairs (including some hefty embezzlement from several clients). I was on one of his mailing lists and my sister had been congenially acquainted with him 40-odd years earlier. He seemed from a distance hyper energetic – political office, radio commentary, law practice, several businesses, etc. His scamming around caught up with him.
This man Middleton worked in the Clinton White House for about two years when he was between the ages of 30 and 33. He hasn’t worked for Clinton since 1995. You’d have to go back and get an old U.S. government manual to discover what his title was, because none of the news services knows; the smart money says he was a 3d echelon ‘deputy assistant to the president for [fill in]’. He has a law degree but is not in the Arkansas bar register. He appears to have been running some sort of investment advisory firm in Little Rock for 20-odd years. I think if you want to know why this happened, you start by looking at his company’s balance sheet and profit-and-loss statements and then look at his household financial statements.

A majority of men who commit suicide do so with firearms. A surprisingly large share of these suicides make use of long guns.

How many Art use a shot gun while hanging themselves simultaneously from a tree?
“How many Art use a shot gun while hanging themselves simultaneously from a tree?”
LOLLLLL I love it. He’ll have an answer lol.

I do not see a separate category for that.
I’d be somewhat skeptical of internet accounts of the number of times you supposedly saw Clinton on plane manifests or the number of times Epstein is recorded as visiting the White House. There are digital images of some of the plane manifests, so I would take those seriously, but unless you see an image or a an account with annotations from a reputable author, I’d be skeptical. A lot of these discussions people seem to be passing around memes of unknown origin.
What do we know of this man? He’s a businessman in Little Rock who was an aide to Bill Clinton nearly 30 years ago. The White House has hundreds of employees, and no one writing about this seems to know what his job was. What he actually did in this circumstance we do not know either, though it appears the contention is that in his job he could put in a request to the White House usher to allow the man in the door. They also contend Epstein visited the White House 10 additional times. Who do they tell us was responsible for getting him in those times? Have they hanged themselves?
LOLLLLL I love it. He’ll have an answer lol.
You wanna answer just how much distance in years do you have to put between yourself and Bill Clinton before it’s not ‘suspicious’ when you die?
LOLLLLL I love it. He’ll have an answer lol.

Well, actually, he didn’t have an answer. He just declared that any source of info that does not support his thinking is false and/or unreliable. But the stuff he cites is reliable. I, personally, do not have any confidence in posted statistics by the federal government re: gun deaths—as the government is always pushing a political agenda with such data.
Actually, several of these deaths have been carried out in very predictable manners—like a state trooper, who was publicly named by Paula Jones as being a witness in her case against Bill Clinton, being found dead in a motel room of “an apparent suicide” within 48 hours. When I was listening to Paula name that trooper live on the air, I stated that the trooper was a dead man.
The lawsuit claims the family ‘has been harassed by outlandish, hurtful, unsupported and offensive online articles’ regarding Middleton and his death
————
How did the “family” know about the FOIA request unless the sheriff’s office contacted them about it? And why in the normal course of business would the sheriff’s office contact outside people when an FOIA is filed. Under AR FOIA, the sheriff should have to cough that info up to the press as no court ruling has been made as of yet. Unless the sheriff is trying to force the press to sue to get the info.
Also, facts in the case being released should actually clear up some of the conspiracy theories instead of prompting conspiracy theories. Refusing to allow the info to be released will only add to the conspiracy theories. People’s “feelings” are not a legitimate reason to stop the release of information in response to an FOIA request.
But this is AR we are talking about. So the family, if they have any connections at all, will probably get a favorable ruling, and the info will most likely be blocked by the “judge.”
Perry County Sheriff Scott Montgomery said Middleton was discovered hanging from a tree with a shotgun blast to his chest.
—————-
Well, do you shoot yourself first, then hang your self? Or do you hang yourself first & then shoot yourself?
———————
The Heifer Ranch has extensive properties. Lots of privacy in which to shoot yourself and then hang yourself (or vice versa) and go unnoticed on the front end. And Heifer International has extensive political connections in AR & otherwise and has since the Clintons were here in the state. The person who wrote the article, obviously doesn’t know that. I have read in the past about connections between the Clinton Foundation & Heifer International.
The actual article says that this deceased gentleman was a passenger on the Lolita express
He just declared that any source of info that does not support his thinking is false and/or unreliable. But the stuff he cites is reliable.
No, I did not do that. I said that much of the discussion of Epstein’s activity seems like people passing around unverified memes and I wanted more reliable sourcing. I don’t have any contentions about how often Clinton flew to Epstein’s island or how often Epstein visited the White House or who waved him in the door. Stop lying.
Riffling through some business profiles in Arkansas, it appears this man and his siblings operated four businesses between them. Two were financial sector concerns, one was a real estate office, and one (the main business) is a company that installs HVAC systems. They were all working in the main business (founded by their father in 1976) and each had a side business. They three of them grew up in an exurb about 20 miles outside of Little Rock and still live in Pulaski County. A public records search on the man turns up one address in DC, one address in Fayetteville (where he attended law school), and a mess of addresses around Little Rock. A similar search on his father turns up one address in Hot Springs and a mess of addresses around Little Rock. One on his mother turns up her son’s apartment in DC and a mess of addresses around Little Rock.
The picture I’m seeing is a local businessman who had an interlude in his life when he worked as a political aide.
Well, do you shoot yourself first, then hang your self? Or do you hang yourself first & then shoot yourself?
It would appear he stood on some sort of riser (a park bench?) and was able to swing an electrical cord over a tree branch. He then tied it around his neck while resting the shotgun against his upright body. The angle of the cord one might surmise was not strictly vertical. He then picked up the gun, shot himself, and the blast pushed him off the riser to a position wherein he was hanging straight down, suspended. The shotgun blast was what killed him.
Again, you want to know what was going through this man’s mind, I suggest the first place you look is at what he’d been doing with his life, not someone he worked for 28 years ago.
I have read in the past about connections between the Clinton Foundation & Heifer International.
Heifer is an extension of the Church of the Brethren. It’s been around for several generations. I know someone whose father worked for Heifer (among other concerns) ca. 1960.
“He then tied it around his neck while resting the shotgun against his upright body. The angle of the cord one might surmise was not strictly vertical. He then picked up the gun, shot himself, and the blast pushed him off the riser to a position wherein he was hanging straight down, suspended.”
Is that before or after the bowling ball rolled down the ramp, knocking over the box of silverware, thus startling the old man asleep in the rocking chair, who, upon leaping up, caused the rocker’s base to pull the cord releasing the pigeons which then made the cat jump from its perch, allowing the counter-weighted lever to fall which opened up the gate letting all the horses out . . .
😉
Is that before or after the bowling ball
Every element in the scenario I suggested included a man doing what he intended to do and not putting himself in any improbable positions while doing it.
Why not simply blast his brains out with the shot gun Art, or hang himself? I find the type of belt and suspenders suicide scenario you propose unlikely in the extreme. The fact that the cops aren’t talking increases my suspicion that this was quite possibly not a suicide.

It’s unusual. Turn your question around. Why would anyone attempting to make it look like a suicide arrange it this way?
Again, we’re talking about someone who hadn’t worked for Bill Clinton in 27 years and who was debarred from the White House in 1996 for the stated reason that he was taking business clients on tours which had no public purpose. I don’t think he was all that influential in the Clinton White House.
I cannot help but recall that David Brock’s series of articles in The American Spectator on Clinton’s conduct in Arkansas included on-the-record quotations from Arkansas state troopers. Did these men later have suspicious deaths?
The thing about connecting the dots is that dots are just dots. The connection between them is the issue of your imagination.

I suspect Art that the victim wasn’t going along with being hung, hence the shot gun blast to the chest.
I don’t think he was all that influential in the Clinton White House.
If he was murdered Art it was likely due to the Epstein connection:

The explanation is obvious, this was clearly a gun-cleaning accident. Middleton truly enjoyed cleaning his shotgun. He also had a great affection for swinging on rope swings. Unfortunately, while attempting to enjoy these two activities simultaneously, something went horribly, horribly wrong!
Besides, the bowling ball, rocking chair, jumping cat theory couldn’t possibly work without incorporating three chickens and a rutabaga on a suspended garbage can lid.

I am not wasting my time one-upping someone with my direct involvement with Heifer. I will say that lived for years right down from the ranch & have been involved in their events, political & otherwise. But, when people are completely convinced in their own mind of their own opinion, regardless, it is a waste of time to repeatedly go back & forth—as I have stuff to do. Blessings to Art & everyone else. Unlike the Left, it is fine for people to disagree with me. Lol.

You’re not arguing with anyone. You’re just complaining people aren’t persuaded by the points you’re making.

Not my trade, but I suspect a forensic pathologist can tell the difference between an administered injury and a self-inflicted one, if not with absolute reliability.
If he was murdered Art it was likely due to the Epstein connection:
Not with you there at all.. Again, supposed his ‘Epstein connection’ is that he knew Epstein ca. 1994. So did Donald Trump and a boatload of others. If local police play the averages, they’re looking into his insurance policies and having a hard look at his wife, his siblings, and other people in his immediate circle.

It appears to have been the estranged wife of a defendant in the suit. She died at home, four days after the suit was filed, and left a note. The man she lived with died about a month later, supposedly a suicide as well. She married the defendant Danny Ferguson in August of 1988. Danny Ferguson married someone else in August of 1991, so it would appear the marriage didn’t last long. The Jones incident supposedly occurred in May of 1991, so presumably they were separated at the time.

Art, I lived this. I don’t have to look stuff up on the internet. Your surmising is false. Try doing some more research.

You mean someone else associated with Danny Ferguson committed suicide two days earlier? Who was that?
This thread reminded me of SNL “Real Stories of the Arkansas Highway Patrol” with very angry Hillary and Gov Bill.
