CORRUPT MISSOURI POLITICS??

I have seen enough stuff coming out of that area (along with occurred 150 years ago and before that) that you could not pay me to live there.  That is ground zero for nukes when it all goes down.  Much anti-Mormon literature coming out of the Kansas City area.  I do not mind the truth - even if it is unpleasant - but the outright slandering will stop in a Godlike way.  A generation of vipers shall not escape the damnations of hell, as the God of Love (Jesus) used to say.....  Yep, he was no wimp - and will take the trash to the curb here shortly.  St Louis, the same thing.  The destruction there will be general, when it happens.

Here is what got me spun up:

Spence Jackson, spokesman for the late Tom Schweich, found dead

JEFFERSON CITY • Veteran Missouri state official Spence Jackson, who was media director for the late state auditor Tom Schweich, was found dead Sunday, sources said. He was 44.

A source told the Post-Dispatch his death was being investigated as a suicide.

Jackson’s death comes about a month after Schweich’s suicide. Amid the subsequent turmoil in the state’s Republican Party, Jackson emerged as a strong critic of Schweich’s political adversaries, to the point of calling for the resignation of a top party official.

Jefferson City police late Sunday refused to confirm Jackson’s death, saying they would release information on Monday morning. A government source said authorities were awaiting identification on a body found in Jackson’s apartment.

Jackson took a sick day on Friday, the source said.

Auditor Schweich had called seeking an interview just before his death

ST. LOUIS • Tom Schweich, Missouri’s Republican state auditor and a leading contender for the governor’s office in next year’s election, died Thursday after apparently shooting himself in his Clayton home.

The sudden death of the second-term auditor shocked and saddened the state’s political establishment and roiled the race for governor barely a month after it began.

“What we know at this point suggests an apparent suicide,” Clayton Police Chief Kevin Murphy told reporters in a news conference Thursday afternoon. He said there was “nothing to support anything other than that at this point,” and said Schweich died from a single gunshot wound.

Murphy said he didn’t know whether Schweich left a note. The chief said an autopsy and investigation are pending.

Earlier in the day, a police source told the Post-Dispatch that Schweich’s wife was in another room of their house when she heard her husband making phone calls, followed by a gunshot. Schweich had been shot in the head, the source said.

A 911 call was made from Schweich’s home at 9:48 a.m., seven minutes after Schweich had left a voicemail requesting an interview with a Post-Dispatch reporter.
