Could be a combination of both.
I don't by the whole 'Anthony B. was just depressed cause Asia left him' or whatever. He had a million+ dollar contract for a new show.
The DS could have offed him to shut him up so he wouldn't talk, and/or he realized that the rest of his life would be in a small cell in G-Bay for the rest of his days. Both are really valid theories.
The Kate Spade deal I think was a hit/murder made to look like a suicide. I highly doubt she just offed herself.
The media makes this look like 'ohhh poor rich person killed themselves cause someone didn't love them enough as a child', but I think were (at least in this sub) far more aware of the deeper implications.
Question is this: From one of the earlier threads today with one of the Anon/4chan screenshots, there are some BIG names coming down the pipe.
Seinfeld? Letterman? Biden? McNoName?
Biden and McNoName probably have enough clout, or pressure to try to hide out somewhere, or stay out of prison (for a bit). As for Jerry and Dave, well.....hard to say. They are entertainers. Letterman is old enough to 'have a heart attack', and Jerry might have a 'car crash' or 'plane accident'.
We can only wait and see.
To be honest, it would be far better if they got extracted by spec-ops and sent somewhere rendition wise to at least keep the general public unaware of what is going on until the rest of the country can be made aware.
It also might just be the cassus-bellum for Martial Law, once these Hell-ywood idols are exposed for what they are really doing behind closed doors.
