Police in Austria are investigating the mysterious death of a British nuclear monitoring expert. Early news reports said that Timothy Hampton, who worked for an international monitoring unit called the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), died after falling 12 stories in a building in the Vienna International Center, one of the United Nations’ main office complexes in Europe. Reports said Austrian authorities would order an autopsy. “Everything points towards a suicide, and there are no signs of any third party being involved,” a police spokesman, Alexander Haslinger, told the French news agency AFP. Authorities in Vienna have privately indicated to other governments that while suicide is the principal cause of death under investigation, they haven’t ruled out the possibility that it could have been an accident or even murder, according to an official source in Washington. Official reports and a former U.N. official indicate that Hampton fell 12 stories down an internal emergency stairwell—from the 17th to the fifth floor—in the high-rise Vienna building.

Some news reports said that Hampton had been involved in the current round of negotiations between Iran, the U.S., and several other Western countries regarding Tehran’s controversial nuclear program.

He fell… Yeah… that’s the ticket.




  1. Thinker says:

    I can see it now. Iran will blame the US for this ‘Interfearance’

  2. Get Smart says:

    if anyone killed this guy, it ain’t the Iranians, it would be the Israeli’s or the Americans, and it would be because the guy was going to expose the fact that the Iranian’s are NOT the enemies who are bent on killing everyone we’ve been led to believe.

  3. Dr Dodd says:

    #2-Get Smart-it would be the Israeli’s or the Americans…

    Or maybe it was Wile E. Coyote?

  4. Dallas says:

    Police are investigating why there was an axe on the street the poor guy managed to fall on and split his head.

  5. Angel H. Wong says:

    He was suicided.

  6. Bob says:

    Obviously this is Bush’s fault.

  7. TonyB says:

    I’d say 2 to the head and the gun in the left hand.

  8. duh says:

    Let’s see…who gains?

    Since Iran is not doing anything wrong (as evidenced by the fact that Bush said they are), they would gain nothing from the truth coming out. Ergo, it was Israel.

    Not hard to figure out.

  9. deowll says:

    Well he did fall all of 12 stories. No doubt he died of heart failure too. That is his heart stopped beating didn’t it?

  10. I wonder what’s on the fifth floor…

  11. Do you believe in the tooth fairy ?
    The sad part here is that it is the professionals against the amateurs
    In this case it is the Iranians who are the professionals while the UN clowns fly around on first class tickets
    New world order , Obama and UN sovereignty worldwide ?

  12. MikeN says:

    Next you’ll say that Milosevic’s death wasn’t a suicide either.

  13. Zybch says:

    #13 and Enron ‘Kenny Boy’ Lay isn’t sunning himself in some South American paradise next to a deckchair with Bernard Madoff’s name on it for when he ‘dies’ from a sudden heart attack and his body is cremated within hours.

  14. Mr. Fusion says:

    As usual, the wing nut conspiracy theorists have been watching a few too many James Bond movies. And end up not being able to differentiate between fiction and real life.

  15. Larry the Cable dude says:

    #6. Fusion- “the wing nut conspiracy theorists”

    Ha ha…how did you ever become so clever..
    Change the record numbskull…your is broken.

  17. Dangerous Leftie says:

    There is another more consistent reason to ignore this discussion. The premise is bullshit to begin with.

    The agency this dude worked for has nothing to do with Iran or investigations of what Iran is doing:
