Scalia: No Heart Attack, Health Was Poor, Family Said No Autopsy, Conspiracy Theories Rage

As conspiracy theories rage out of control on the right wing

The Presidio Country Judge who declared Antonin Scalia dead is now saying she was misquoted by Dallas TV station WFAA, and that Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia did not die of a heart attack. But according to Scalia’s personal physician, he was not in good health.

Guevara acknowledged that she pronounced Scalia dead by phone, without seeing his body. Instead, she spoke to law enforcement officials at the scene — who assured her “there were no signs of foul play” — and Scalia’s physician in Washington, who said that the 79-year-old justice suffered from a host of chronic conditions.

“He was having health issues,’’ Guevara said, adding that she is awaiting a statement from Scalia’s doctor that will be added to his death certificate when it is issued later this week.

Guevara also rebutted a report by a Dallas TV station that quoted her as saying that Scalia had died of “myocardial infarction.” In an interview with The Washington Post, she said she meant only that his heart had stopped.

“It wasn’t a heart attack,” Guevara said. “He died of natural causes.”

The right wing blogs are all freaking out because no autopsy was performed, inventing all kinds of weird conspiracy theories because that’s what they do. But in fact, it was the expressed wish of Scalia’s family that there be no autopsy.

A manager at the El Paso funeral home where Scalia’s body was taken said that his family made it clear they did not want one.

Meanwhile, here are some more excerpts from the comment section of the epicenter of right wing bad craziness, Breitbart “News:”

Scalia died of the rare and completely natural condition known as Chronic Facepillowchloroformia. Now there’s nothing to see here. Move along please.

He’s with Vince Foster now.

[…]

Putin had him killed to destabilize America

[…]

There was a bizarre “dart” incident yesterday on the Golden Gate Bridge

Anyone can go to military​.com and learn about the infamous CIA dart gun

It’s connected.

Very poor reporting. He didn’t hunt he just watched. The shoulder pain was obviously from the injection of the ricin coated micro sphere.

[…]

Potassium chloride is virtually undetectable.

[…]

The minute I heard of his passing, conspiracy was the first thing that crossed my mind.
No autopsy would be the beginning of decades of controversy

[…]

So did they bury him at sea?

[…]

Naw, that is just reserved for Barry’s cover-up story about murdering Osama binLaden.

[…]

Judge Cindy sounds like a loon.

[…]

She’s been eating babies…like most witches.

[…]

She needs her stem cells to stay alive. Stupid old liberal HAG.

[…]

He was in perfect health. Funny how a vigorous and virile man just dies. The fact is that he knew something and that’s why he’s gone. Breitbart should subpoena the DOD satellite footage from the satellites that were in geosynchronous orbit above the ranch. Then we’ll know what really happened.

[…]

The whole thing reminds me of JFK’s murder and cover up which to this day has not engendered trust in our government, which again, is unacceptable, and makes America look like a Kangaroo court around the world and deprives us of our moral authority.

[…]

So there’s hope one day that Hillary will be found dead with a pillow over her face and no autopsy ?

[…]

He died from the Kenyan Factor..a deadly virus that was introduced into the country during the last 8 years. All protectors of the Constitution are extremely susceptible.

[…]

Scalia should’ve realized just WHOM he was dealing with - a murderer on the order of Stalin and Hitler - Obama.

[…]

some idiot posters should listen to alex jones!

All of these are just from the first page of only one comment thread. The deluge of sheer insanity over there is mind-boggling.

As for Alex Jones, he seems to think it’s possible Obama had Scalia murdered so he could install a member of the Muslim Brotherhood on the Supreme Court and impose shariah law on the United States. Yes, really. A screenshot from his Facebook page:
