It resembles a Mafia hit, does it not?

With his body found in the garbage? It also appears that someone at the Mexican consulate was killed. Don't know what all this is about, or if the two are related, but it smells of a cover up to me.

he was involved in a legal battle trying to stop someome from building a house across from his residence, because, in his words, " it blocked his view of the river".

I have a hunch his murder relates to that dispute.
