As somebody who watches a *ton* of true crime shows, this Joe Scarborough "cold case" made me

so I went down the

hole.

Turns out it's originally a very left-wing conspiracy theory. And it has legs.

First, from very left-wing DailyKos in 2016: https://m.dailykos.com/stories/2016/12/21/1613261/-What-Really-Happened-to-Lori-Klausutis-Everything-Joe-Scarborough-Does-NOT-Want-Viewers-To-Know

What Really Happened to Lori Klausutis? (Everything Joe Scarborough Does NOT Want Viewers To Know)

This past June a Media frenzy began when it was revealed that Morning Joe had been divorced since 2013 and Mika Brzezinski was quietly divorcing her husband James Hoffer. Rumors of their romance ha...

Next, from left-wing Daily Kos again, this time in 2006, with a *lot* more questions like

- Medical examiner had his licensed revoked... twice?
- Might not have had a license?
- Weird payments?
- Lies from Joe about her medical history? https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2006/7/15/227606/-

joe's dead intern: skippy agrees w/kat.harris

Stories from 2001, like this one, make the story more suspicious:

- She died of a heart condition?
- But she had a huge head wound?
- She belonged to the track club, ran 8Ks?
- Joe had just resigned Congress over infidelity+divorce?

From a paper in Florida in 2001:

- "Klausutis' death was caused by her head striking the edge of a desk in the office"

- But ruled accident?

There's a lot more if you dig through http://archive.org , and this Joe Scarborough "cold case" has more weird questions than half the True Crime shows on TV do.

I'm not saying *he* did anything.

But if this was a documentary, you'd believe she was murdered by the end.
