Trump questions FBI probe into Graham’s death as medical findings point to an aortic dissection

President Trump questioned the FBI's investigation into Sen. Lindsey Graham's death, saying it seems unnecessary amid unfounded foul-play rumors. Graham's office reported he died of a heart issue; a preliminary DC medical examiner's report cites an aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The FBI offered to assist local authorities and agents were seen at Graham's DC home. South Carolina will replace Graham via appointment by his sister Darline, triggering a wide-open GOP primary for his seat.

The New York City medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide by hanging in a Manhattan jail, though conspiracies persist.

Defense Rests in Daniel Penny Trial, Disputes Chokehold Cause of Death

A defense medical examiner testified that Jordan Neely did not die from a chokehold applied by Daniel Penny on a New York City subway, but rather from stress and underlying health conditions. Penny faces manslaughter charges for the incident, with prosecutors arguing the chokehold caused Neely's death. The defense's expert, Dr. Satish Chundru, disputed the city medical examiner's findings, suggesting Neely's schizophrenia, sickle cell trait, and drug use contributed to his death. The prosecution challenged Chundru's conclusions and credibility during cross-examination.
