Second Person Found Dead In Massive Homeowners Association Scandal

[FarCenter]

A sweeping federal investigation into a Las Vegas homeowners association scheme has turned deadly this week, with two key players found dead in suspected suicides.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that attorney David Amesbury, who was cooperating with a federal investigation into fraud and corruption at homeowners associations, was found dead in California this weekend. His death is believed to be a suicide. Amesbury was the first of 10 people to have pleaded guilty in the HOA scheme, which investigators say involved stacking HOA boards with favorable candidates who then pushed construction defect lawsuits to attorneys and contractors involved in the conspiracy.

Amesbury is the second attorney involved in the scandal to turn up dead this week. KSNV reports that Nancy Quon was found dead in a bathtub at her Las Vegas condo last Wednesday, and investigators have not ruled out suicide.

The two deaths this week bring the body count in the scandal up to three. Christopher Van Cleef, a police officer whose name surfaced in the initial investigation, killed himself after the FBI and Las Vegas police conducted a raid in September 2008.

Dead men tell no tales.

1. Why do I suspect that they killed themselves multiple times with different tools?

Of all the people you would expect to commit suicide in this investigation, someone who has already been convicted and is cooperating with the feds is REALLY LOW on that list.

3. That they knew the kind of scum they were dealing with yet they decided

to remain in Las Vegas speaks volumes about their arrogance. Of course I am assuming they were murdered but if it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck it's a duck.
