This one was sad for sure.
I don't understand why you claim he's innocent and honest. I'm not saying he isn't, but all I heard was you say they had some kind of paper trail showing him as being guilty of being part of the scandal, and then he got depressed and shot himself in front of everyone. It's really brutal if he was framed but I didn't really notice anywhere where you said anything to back up your claim.
Back in the day of virtuous Republicans...
In today's political climate, hearing this broke my heart.
