Oil Tycoon "commits suicide"
 

Or was he silenced? Just like SECNAV/DEF Forrestal?

"Navy Sec. Nominee's Death Ruled Suicide

By RICHARD BENKE Associated Press July 25, 2003

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - The death of Colin McMillan, an oilman awaiting
Senate confirmation as Navy secretary, was ruled a suicide by gunshot
Friday. McMillan, 67, was found dead Thursday at his 55,000-acre ranch
in southern New Mexico, near the White Sands Missile Range.

"The cause is a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The manner is
suicide," said Tim Stepetic, spokesman for the state medical
investigator.

In Alamogordo, District Attorney Scot Key would not say whether McMillan
left a suicide note. Key said a handgun was found with the body.

McMillan "had a recurrence of cancer," but "everybody thought he was
recovered, recuperating quite well," Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., said
Friday on the Senate floor.

President Bush nominated McMillan in May for the Navy post, which had
been vacant since Gordon England left in January to become deputy
secretary of the new Homeland Security Department. The president said he
and his wife were "saddened by the death of our good friend." "Colin was
a public servant and patriot," Bush said.

McMillan served in the Marine Corps from 1957 to 1972 and was assistant
defense secretary in the early 1990s, during the first Bush
administration. McMillan ran Permian Exploration Corp. in Roswell."

Oil Tycoon "commits suicide"
 

Some newspapers, (I don't remember which), reported that the unfortunate
gentleman recently had a cancer relapse. They did not report which type of
cancer he suffered from.
