Fox News Analyst Cries Bloody Murder: ‘DC Madam Should Be A Homicide Case’

Fox News Analyst Kimberly Guilfoyle said today on a Fox News program that the Deborah Jeane Palfrey case should be investigated as a murder case and that the evidence presented thus far does not exclude the possibility that the lady was off’ed - and did not commit suicide by hanging in her mother’s Tarpons Spring, FL home last week.

Specifically, Guilfoyle found it provocative from a forensic standpoint that the Pamela Martin Associates women experiencing untimely (in their contexts) deaths are all suiciding by hanging. Last year, PMA escort Brandy Britton was found hanging in her foreclosed home in Maryland after being exposed to local police by an anonymous caller, prompting them to open an investigation.

Female hanging suicides are rare if unheard of. Two in a row by women whose knowledge of the beltway GOP Pervertariate could have given its members, like VP Dick Cheney, the motivation to make these women go away is something that should have been obvious to the Tarpon Springs police allegedly investigating the case. Of course, those same circumstances could just as well motivate the cops to look the other way.

Palfrey, no doubt, was in a jam and made noises both about toughing out the sentence and about her raw fear of returning to jail as she suffered in state prison in California during an 18 month stretch for prostitution in the early 1990s. The easiest explanation is she snapped and all at once ran to the quickest exit, taking the successful route a colleague had chosen.

But given the gigabytes of data her business has retained, however, there is no doubt that many of DC’s sexually frustrated power elite would rest easier at night knowing she was dead, investigators beyond Tarpon Springs, FL may want to look at the possibility Palfrey’s death was a politically motivated execution, after a politically motivated selective prosecution - like that which removed Eliot Spitzer from the political scene.

Further, given how GOP operatives in this administration have used the Justice Department for political prosecutions and used strong arm tactics to silence witnesses who sought to expose them, including break-ins, car attacks and arson, it seems likely that the orders, if they were given, came from the top of the GOP and the White House, now fused as one raging criminal nexus, managed by a handful of thugs answering to Cheney, Rove and their closest operatives.

Guilfoyle said the timing of the deaths of Britton and Palfrey were simply too convenient for the interests of too many ‘high powered people in Washington” to have been coincidental. Britton died days before she was supposed to give testimony in her trial in January, 2007. Palfrey, Guilfoyle pointed out, said after her conviction that if she died it would be a staged suicide and that if was called a suicide no one was “to believe it.”

Guilfoyle concluded, “So the two women involved in this case where there 10 to 15,000 phone names potentially of high powered people in Washington - and they both hang themselves? Come on.”

Waynemadsenreport.com has been investigating the Palfrey death as a murder case and, so far, his reportage has pointed to the strong possibility that the suicide note was a forgery, citing the expert opinion of a handwriting analyst.

The question is whether it’s more shocking that the MSM is following this angle in the first, or that the branch of the MSM represented by Fox News is following this angle.  After all, you’d think that with Fox being all in bed with the current administration, there’s gonna be some friction here.

What’s the over/under on Guilfoyle “committing suicide” by hanging in the next month?

What the hell is Gavin’s ex-wife doing on Fox News? Must admit I never ever watch it, so maybe she’s been there forever…? But could this represent a sinister plot by the Demrats to plant a manchu candidate in the enemy camp? If so, way to go Demrats!

Wow, if the camera adds 10 lbs, Kimberly Guilfoyle must be a freakin’ stick figure in real life.

The CIA-controlled hamsters pulled my earlier comment wherein I stated that Nigel Hamilton, in “Bill Clinton:  Mastering the Presidency” reported comments made by HRC at the time of Vice Foster’s death that he had possibly uncovered the existence of a Navy unit that specialized in making murders look like suicides.   

Redmanlaw, any government worth its salt will have at least one group of people who are good at making murder look like suicide.  It’s interesting news to me when they start using it inside the country, though.  That’s normally reserved for taking out Fidel or whatever.

It’s just unseemly, I have to agree, that two sturdy girls who’d gone through nasty crap in life would be driven to suicide by being dragged into court or facing some jail time, and both would decide to go exactly the same way. It could have been a real deal suicide on both accounts with Palfrey copy-kittening Britton but two ladies choosing to go by rope. I dunno. I don’t follow suicides in any way but the ones that have shown up in front of me involving females and the ones I’ve read about involving females didn’t involve this kind of physical violence. Curious.

RML, that would be the Navy SNUFs. They have an intense rivalry culminating in a holiday football game with the SEALs.
 
Snark aside, I wouldn’t be surprised by any nefarious contingency to protect its power our government has on standby, up to and including extinction of the species, and I don’t for a minute kid myself that those contingencies are on hold under Demratic administrations.

@Pedonator: “SNUFs” is tea-spewing-out-the-nose funny. Thank you, sir, I needed that laugh.

@Pedonator:  Navy SNUFs!  Crack me up and make me blow snot, Pedo!  Let me know when you start doing stand-up at the local comedy club!

Hey, it’s one thing to express your views outside the polls, and another thing to actually vote.  If you want to make an impact on the dates and location of The Cynics’ Party Convention, go to tcpnews (at) live (dot) com and actually be heard.  Do you want six people to make the decisions for you?  Support democracy–be heard at tcpnews (at) live (dot) com, dammit!

 
 
\end announcement, dammit!

@Cynica, Monk: Thank you, but they say you joke in order not to cry, or something like that. Would be funnier if it wasn’t probably kinda true.

But I like meaningless chatter.  It’s what I do best.

@Ped: Last I heard, Gavin’s ex is on Court TV, not Fox News. But maybe she’s moving on up. Kimberly was a prosecutor here in the DA’s office before she went on the teevee, so even more interesting she would question guv-mint officials.
Speaking of San Francisco, our local paper has a long article today about the various presidential candidate’s attitudes towards pot.  Happy to see that Sen. Unicorn thinks medical marijuana should be legal and isn’t afraid to say so.

Faux?  Conspiracies?
Against Repubs?
Did I wake up in Bizzaro Universe?
I don’t disagree with her.  Too many coincidences.
 

@SFL: Yeah, after I checked it out it looks like she started her stint at Fox within days of announcing the divorce from Gavin. Also notice she name-checked Alex Jones in this clip. WTF? I believe there is some serious weirdness going on here that even the most honed and heightened sense of Cynicism will be challenged to splain. Was that a limited hangout? (Must refresh my conspiracy theory jargon, not sure that’s the right term).
 
 
Re: Obama. I understand he’s already admitted he inhaled, though I’m not sure that was in reference to pot. Anyway it feeds my audacious Hope.

Medical marijuana?  Is it a legitimate medical need that I really like being high?

How about “the knowledge I live in a country slipping rapidly into fascism, deeply anti-intellectual, and thoroughly racist, will make me insane if I can’t smoke pot?”  Is that a good enough diagnosis?

Kimberly Guilfoyle?  She of the Gavin’s been there already?  She of the cosmetic face stretch and biggggg mouth?  Yeah.  I’d hit it.

@IanJ: Meh, politicos wouldn’t know a qualified hitter if they were strangling their underaged mistresses in front of them.

@FunkyPalmettoBug:  Bug!  Good to see you.  I just fixed a pitcher of sweet tea, must have known you would be around.  So how are the Cocks doing these days?

Governments have been killing troublemakers forever.  What’s amazing to me is that so many Americans somehow believe our “enlightened” government would feel any qualms about doing it.  Survival is the driving force behind all organizations and that end justifies the use of any and all means.  What’s the point of achieving power if you can’t use it?  I don’t see that dynamic changing any time soon.

I’m really disappointed that the video didn’t continue with the shocking story about Congressman Rangel’s Cadillac.  That seemed much more in line with the big stories that Fox normally reports.

Speaking of Fox, did everyone see the old Bill O tantrum video that Keith played tonight?  What a rank amateur!  I’m pretty sure Megan and several of the Cynics would humiliate his lame swearing.  Unfortunately it seems to have been deleted from YouTube already, but I imagine it’s still floating around somewhere.

Bill O came across like a petty, whiny bitch.

@prom: The “deeply anti-intellectual” part is what scares me the most, because it leads to all the other stuff. Watched the “Ask an Iraqi” segment of This American Life the other night (sorry HFA, I seem to recall you have a vendetta against Ira Glass). Was amazed at some of the stupidity the Iraqi encountered, because I live in the liberal echo chamber.
 
Including an inexcusably stupid–not ignorant–deliberately stupid Marine, who said he was there at Abu Ghraib, and because some nine year old Iraqi child in theater stabbed a soldier anything that was done there was ok with him. I have no facts to back this up with, which is anti-intellectual itself, but do you suppose that nine year old child might have been bereaved of some of his close relatives by ours truly? I mean, fuck, how can you deny a nine year old child his attempt at revenge? And no I don’t say that justifies a US American Hero’s death, but WTF is the reasoning this deliberately stupid Marine uses to justify the occupation, humiliation, torture and death visited upon of an entire populace that never did shitworthy ag’in us?

@Pedonator: My beef with Ira Glass is that he affects a faux “conversational” voice that is no more closer to actual speech than the prior “professional” voice he now pointedly disavows. It’s a form of intellectual dishonesty that really grates on me.

(Full disclosure: I used to be a public-radio jock. No Bruckner before breakfast!)

@Dave H: The segment is up on Countdown’s website and it is glorious.

@nojo: You have a very evolved critique of Ira Glass. I just thought he was a bit pedantic-twee or something. But I like the company he keeps, and thankfully he usually only does voiceovers during the interludes.

Also, public-radio jock is jock enough for me. I’ve always fantasized about a hot guy in a public radio jock-strap. (Promise that’s the end of that, just couldn’t resist.)

(If you ever listen to KPBS, do you hear the byline of, “Kenny Goldberg, KPBS” as if it’s something he’s assaulting you with?)

@Pedonator: All KSDS all the time for me. I was a classical jock via battlefield promotion (station canceled NPR, and I found myself mispronouncing dead composers instead of babysitting Morning Edition), but my heart belongs to Mingus.

Dateline, Tarpon Springs:  They should investigate how they fit a goddamn tarpon into a spring.  That’s a big ol’ fish.

@nojo: I listen to KSDS on the weekends and whenever I can’t stand the mediocre news KPBS/NPR pawns off on us as fair and balanced. But I still like Car Talk, Prairie Home, and Whadda You Know?  (Even though I hate cars, never lived in the Scandinavian midwest, or knew anything). Even though I love philology, when the word nerds come on NPR, I switch to Ida on KSDS. She rocks.

@RML: Why would someone stuff a fish into a spring? Is that an old-timey way to descale/debone the fish? Catch-and-release as a prank from one place to another? What kinda spring are we talking about? The kind found in CV joints? Swiss watchworks?

@ ped - a.  because of Dada.  b.  That’s what we’re trying to find out.  c.  Fish work for scale because they love the project and respect the work.  d.  Never been to a CV joint.  Do they still do line dancing there?  e.  The fish was hung?  Really?
 
 
 
 
 
 

@Pedonator: And now for our Session with Sinatra…

Love Ida. Besides her fun taste in swing, she shows how you can be warm and conversational — personable — without affecting those Glassian run-ons.

Enjoy the Car Talk guys, although I rarely catch them — This American Life follows Harry Shearer on KCRW, and it’s a game every Sunday morning how much of it I can stand. (Shearer does a very wicked Keillor, complete with audience reaction.) I went through my Prairie phase long ago; at some point it felt repetitive, but I hold no animosity there.

@redmanlaw: Fish work for scale because they love the project and respect the work.

And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

@RML: Fast and bulbous, baby!
(-Captain Beefheart)
 
 
@nojo: Christianity is stupid. Communism is good. Shop as usual. And avoid panic buying.
(-Negativland)
 

@nojo: Are you doing some kind of internet thingy or what kind of cable magic to catch KCRW and Harry Shearer down here in SD? I’m woefully maleducated about the intertubes, I only use them for what I want, unh, unh. Guess I should google it, duh.
 
I still haven’t got used to using my ‘puter for things like radio and teevee. And please tell me it’s not a litmus test for the new age to text on the cellular telephone, which I regard as a barely acceptable infernal machine.

@Pedonator: Live feed from kcrw.com via iTunes, although you can also download complete shows from harryshearer.com. I like the live feed because he does a local minute or two before and after the show — nothing significant, just a nice added touch. (He’s also a part-time New Orleans resident, and often broadcasts from there — with plenty of post-Katrina coverage.)

And no litmus tests from me — I’m a geek, so this stuff comes naturally. To a point — I refused to text until I got an iPhone, since it was too maddening to figure out how to get English out of a cellphone keypad…

@ mellbell: OMFG… that was so so awesome.

@all: My love of public radio has been chastened by actually having to work with those bastards on the PR side. They are ungrateful, entitled pricks, even more so than the normal fucktardery of radio.

I’ve actually come so far as to warn my friends NOT to give to this certain NPR news station. Which is a shame.

@ragingmonk: Our baseball team isn’t earning their pay imo lol.

@Bug:  Heh!  I was wondering, too, if Steve Superior has anything ready for the SEC East this fall.

i thought we covered this last week? debbie was most certainly assassinated, and no one is going to get indicted for it.
end of story.
hey, did you see my boyfriend for life, jon stewart, chew doug feith up last night?

@ baked - a lawyer girl I know here has already claimed Jon as her “TV boyfriend”.  You guys will not be drinking together at the CP Convention. 

“Bloodshed Marrs Blogger Meet/Spike Heels “Deadly Weapon” Says DA”

Hey Monk, if I were you I’d take Mini-Tebow and the points over the combined SEC all-stars.

@baked: Loved it! It’s like Jon was trying to make up for the ass-kissing McCain “interview.” I haven’t gotten around to watching the unedited 22 minute interview on the Daily Show website, but it’s on my to-do list. Stephen Colbert is my TV boyfriend, so luckily you and I won’t have to have a catfight over Jon, although some of the boys would probably enjoy that. In fact, we could probably get them to pay our way to the CP Summit if we promise a catfight followed by a steamy kiss-and-make-up.

reds,
oh no no no no no. jon has been mine for about 23 years. i met and fell in love with him, when he was unknown, and we were doing the seedy stand up circuit in nyc. i was there for his debut on the daily show and was so nervous for him! i had been watching that show with craig kilborn long time by then. i have mixed emotions about his success, i have to share him now with the world. tell your friend she really doesn’t want to fuck with me on this one. seriously.

cyn,
stephen is adorable, i love him too, but not in the deep and meaningful way i love jon. i miss his feature “this week in god” so much! so we’ll do a pillow fight, to amuse the boys. i may get a 2 bedroom, you know ped will act out and his hubby goes too easy on him, he’ll need disciplining, and i promised i would.

monk, register me for santa fe……

@Baked:  I will be depending on you to defend my honor.  Keep Pedonator in line.

@ragingmonk said: Well, I’m planning a hostile takeover of my company(long story) and moving it down to SC(grants and tax breaks galore for small businesses). So I’m planning on becoming fat back booster who hire top prospects family members in exchange for a 5 year commitment lol. Spurrier needs another year to get his prospects going.

@prom:  Hey, that’s because you don’t have the True SEC Religion like Bug and me.  I give Mike Huckabee’s God credit for creating The Greatest College Football Conference in the en-see-ay-ay.

@Bug:  Sounds great, ya robber baron.  Glad to see you’re coming home to the Southland.

@Baked:  Vote early, vote often for your favorite locale for the TCP Convention at tcpnews (at) live (dot) com.  You and everybody else that wants a say.  Today’s TCPNews is that Megan, Greg and Hunter are planning on being there, too.  We have a more-or-less official blessing from our Mom and Uncle-Daddies!

@ragingmonk said: To quote George C Scott as Patton…”I love it. God help me I do love it so.”

…or maybe after deciding to take her own life she then intentionally chose hanging just to leave the conspiracy…
