Always remember how he died, in the worst possible way.

(14,961 posts)2. I followed this story closely as it played out. It was beyond
horrific. Yesterday I read an article where a woman that had listened to the tape described what happened, he didn't even think it was possible in an embassy and he was so happy overall. The fact that these monsters were laughing at times was even more heartbreaking. I wish I could remember the source of the article.
