a weird twist

A key witness in the severe beating of San Franciso Giants fan Bryan Stow (still in a coma months later, I believe) DIED OVER THE WEEKEND after an allergic reaction to a peanut.

I realize that such allergies are becoming more common, and don’t see how a bunch of parking lot thugs could have the KGB-like capacities for a creative hit of this sort. It just seems a bit uncanny, that’s all.

“Matthew Lee, one of the men with Stow who was also attacked, was going to be a witness but died over the weekend from an allergic reaction after eating a peanut, police commander Andy Smith said. No cause of death has been determined, according to the Los Angeles Times.”
