Talk:Brian Kelley (CIA officer)

Death
In the art, i found


 * Kelley died from an apparent heart attack at his home in Vienna, Virginia on September 19, 2011.

but it offered no refs claiming to verify it. One existing ref cited else where in our article does support his family having expressed their presumably unreliable opinion, but not what our article implicitly said, which is that there's no definitive evidence one way or the other. Almost certainly the fact is either


 * that a doctor concurred re MI, based on the family's description and/or the dr's professional experience (pretty definitive), or


 * that no information is publicly available about whether anyone more qualified than the family has ever concurred, and thus that we dunno whether the dr was asked or forced to shut up, or whether a secret autopsy was done.

(Very plausibly no autopsy was deemed necessary by the outside medics, but the existing text implied that either all anyone w/o clearance knows is that the family thot so, or that the spooks arranged an autopsy whose results remain a state secret -- either to conceal a further investigation that gave contrary evidence, or as a matter of policy to keep the other side from knowing what their practice is with regard to trying to detect murders of agents that might otherwise be disguised as natural heart attacks.  What do OCD (or otherwise exacting) editors do in such circumstances? They change the wording and add a ref. --Jerzy•t 10:34, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
