    Sounds sort of like the story behind the death of one member of a prominent local family back in the early 1900's...

    "The deceased committed suicide by shooting himself in the back six times..."

    There is nothing to see here folks; please move along...

    It could be an accident, of course, these things do happen all across the country. But....

    Wow. Never saw an autopsy allow the coroner to say he was walking for some unknown reason from point A to point B, fell, hit his head and drowned. That’s usually a police report or something. (?). Surprised they didn’t say he uttered oh shit!! while descending. Hmmmm.

    Further bolsters the claim that "snitches wind up in ditches"... or in this case creek-beds.

    "Crane previously made news as the man who brought down a major inside scam taking place at Mohegan Sun Pocono in Plains Twp.Prosecutors said Crane acted out of jealousy — he was romantically involved with cocktail waitress Rochelle Poszeluznyj, 40, of Kingston, who had also been seeing gambler Mark Joseph Heltzel, 54, of Dallas.

    According to prosecutors, Poszeluznyj gathered player’s card information from customers and gave it to Robert Joseph Pellegrini, 52, then the vice president of player development at the casino. Using his executive access, Pellegrini loaded free play credits onto duplicate cards and gave them to Heltzel, who raked in $422,147 at video poker machines between May 2014 and April 2015, according to prosecutors.


    Nice scam they had going there, with the VP of player development running it. The guy was earning a solid six figures and he STILL couldn't keep his fingers out of the candy jar. Yeesh, some people!

    Uhhhhh... no... not exactly.

    90 minutes down the Turnpike or 81- from Philly!

    Know IT very well. All manner of shenanigans have happened there.

    Hey doc, let's just go with “anoxic encephalopathy due to loss of consciousness of undetermined etiology.” Here's a little something for the effort, you and the Mrs. enjoy a night out, eh?

    I think it was a cop who said that. Coffay is with the Wilkes-Barre City Police.

    "for some unknown reason he began walking from point A to his destination at point B."
    As do most humans on earth. Exceptional insight, Commander.

    I know this os probably not a popular opinion, but we're joking about a peraon who died young. Presumably, he had freinds and family that are heartbroken about this. Not exactly the kind of subject I want to make jokes about
