Garbage pseudo-journalism by BodogBecky's (aka CityOfSweden) people. Lame. I read the judgment of the slander case mentioned at the bottom of the article - it was dismissed.

very shocking and strange

With all of the rumors, it would probably be wise for someone to make a statement. Right now, people are in shock. Give it another day or two, human nature will take over and the stories will start snowballing.

If the rumor regarding his working with the Feds were true, a death would not be staged for witness protection placement. He would simply disappear.

If an explosion took place, the news would have picked it up. Weird though that he said he was going on vacation and apparently the explosion took place in his own home. There was an explosion near Asheville, which is where Sporsgirl lives, but the home was vacant No stories of a home or car explosion in VB.

I spoke to Sporty this morning. If Ken was going to be anywhere near Asheville, she believes he would have called her. She's completely confused by the whole thing.

This whole thing is creepy

 

[LEISURE]

The whole thing doesn`t make sense at all .How can this not be on some news report somewhere ??

 

[Rubyn]

If it was an accident, the details would have been shared. I'm sure this was no accident and I even question the explosion that allegedly took place. Whatever it was, I hope he didn't suffer.

 

[Matty]

I think the explosion rumor is from an unrelated double death.

And if the witness protection rumor is unfounded, I'm afraid that the truth will be pretty grisly.

Matty, if it was a witness protection thing then IMO they did a hell of a sloppy job? Afraid it might be they are gone or Ken would know to refute the rumors by now? Would be too sick of a joke for even me to do!

You are forgetting that Ken's son contacted EOG moderators to inform them that Ken and his wife are dead. I highly doubt this is a joke.

 

[Matty]

Not a joke, too many of Shrink's people have confirmed. Paddy has a couple of good posts over at Peep's:

Oh no didn't know that, that sucks. Then it must be true.

Tony made a statement over at EOG.


As you can imagine this is a terrible time for our family. I have lost my beautiful mother and my close friend and stepfather Ken.

I just want to come on EOG to confirm the lose. Ken and my mother have passed away. They took their own lives sometime late Wednesday night or early Thursday mornig with sleeping pills carbon monoxide...

I want to let all of you know that he loved EOG and the posters...it was his passion. He mention this in a note he left for me and wanted to say he was sorry for leaving you all...mostly Mo, Blondie, Ball, and Jimmy who worked so hard to keep EOG rolling. I am at his desk...crying my eyes out as I type..

They left no reason for what they did thou I have my own ideas....I am just very sad and my heart is broken...I lost my best friend of the last 40+ years and the greatest mom a fellas could have....my heart is truely broken. If there is a heaven I know my mom is there planting flowers and waiting on her family to arrive one day....Kens family...by brother, our wives and their heartbroken grandchildren will celebrate their lives on Tuesday.

I know that there has been a lot of rumors flying around and I must admit I was worried this past week that something horrible had happened and my gut was right. I just wanted to come on and share with the folks at EOG what is the only truth in this terrible day....THE SHRINK and my mother are dead..

Thanks for all the good times EOGers...!!

And those who love to to be cruel and run them down...find a new big bad wolf..

 

[Matty]

Ack.

 

[LEISURE]

wow, very sad . My heart goes out to the family

 

[MrMonkey]

Thanks KR and sorry for all you guys/gals over there and of course his family!

 

[RogueScholar]

Wow, that's just not something you expect from people their age. I can't begin to imagine just how messed up their lives must've been to consider this option.
