An Artist Who Obsessed the FBI

&gt; &quot;Nonetheless, after a perfunctory investigation lasting two days that consisted of brief interviews with Lombardi’s girlfriend, Hilary Maslon, and Lombardi’s parents, the Williamsburg police declared the death a suicide. The studio door, securely locked from the inside, showed no signs of forced entry except for the transom the police had opened themselves. Lombardi’s body was not marked by struggle, and the hasty autopsy determined that his injuries were consonant with having hanged himself.&quot;<p>While it&#x27;s easy to cry &quot;conspiracy theory, everybody was in on it!&quot; I generally believe the majority of these types of deaths, if they are actually shady, do not involve local law enforcement as co-conspirators whatsoever, regardless of the people who want to believe.<p>It seems that the upsides for actually following rabbit holes in these types of circumstances are little to none for local law enforcement. If you&#x27;re a local law enforcement agency with little resources, what&#x27;s a better outcome for the image of your agency? Take Occam&#x27;s razor, even under suspicious circumstances, send the body to the morgue, and call it done, or send one of your detectives into the labyrinth?<p>Sending the detective into the labyrinth has two risks, both of which are bad. You&#x27;ll either end up blowing a bunch of time on a conspiracy where one does not exist, or, in the case that there is, you will probably just end up sending a detective into a world of classified disaster and end up collateral damage of a much more powerful, much more insidious organization. Either way, probing further means you&#x27;ll lose face. Most will choose the path of least resistance.

<i>&gt;..if he had indeed been dead for more than 24 hours, the active ingredients in both Tylenol and alcohol would have metabolized out of his body</i><p>This doesn&#x27;t sound right. Wouldn&#x27;t metabolism cease at death?

That title makes as much sense as &quot;An Artist Who Addicting the FBI&quot;.
