CHICAGO AP – The investigation into the death of the former chief fundraiser for ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich intensified on Sunday as medical examiners completed an autopsy and detectives looked into whether drugs found in the trusted aide’s vehicle might have factored into his death.
Dwight Welch, the mayor of suburban Country Club Hills where Christopher Kelly was found slumped over his vehicle’s steering wheel in a lumber yard, said a number of drugs were found in the former fundraiser’s black Cadillac Escalade but declined to say which drugs. He did say the investigation was being treated as a possible suicide.
