Bill Sparkman, the Census worker found dead hanging from a tree with the word "Fed" scrawled across his body, was found to be a suicide. This news is sure to cause some darkly amoral celebrating on the right, who will claim that this vindicates their paranoia and hatred they've built up against innocent, hard-working federal bureaucrats as part of a larger anti-tax-for-the-wealthy program. It does not, and I flinch to think of how tasteless this is going to get. Sparkman's death was a tragedy, no matter how you slice it. That he staged it as a murder to get the life insurance payment most likely only speaks to his concerns about his inheritors, probably his son. Depression is a terrible and often deadly disease, and obviously, it distorts people's thinking.

Dan Riehl, fresh off of his suggestion that Bill Sparkman, the murdered Census worker, was a pedophile, has fresh new evidence that Sparkman had curly hair.
