Re: 3.40AM his hardrive was accessed remotely!!

What you are saying is very dangerous. "people kill themselves all the time"?? Where the heck do you get this info from? Anything to confirm this statement of yours?

Scroobal recently told a forummer that he should go and hang himself.

I replied that his children should and will hang themselves.

The fucking coward quickly deleted my post, he was so scared to see it he didn't even dare to put it in the rubbish heap.

Re: 3.40AM his hardrive was accessed remotely!!

CNA reported that Court heard that Todd was found hanged with "his feet on the floor". Reminds me of Chinese dissident Li Wangyang, who was "suicided" in June 2012. Almost certainly murdered. The PRC authorities had done this kind of thing before.

Oh, so the son was never involved in top secret projects and therefore, there shouldn't be any highly confidential files found relating to such within the harddisk which they claimed they found but was actually handed over to them by the SPF.

So, if he was murdered, over what now?

 

[cheekenpie]

Maybe his GF murdered him for insurance money?

 

[ray_of_hope]

So, Adelstein, the US-based medical examiner now says it was not garrotting, but still maintains it was murder.
More like still trying to cling on to a shred of credibility he might have left.

He picked the wrong girl. If she was his girlfriend, she should have stopped him from being depressed.

You fucking moron, depression isn't something you can just tell a person to stop doing.

You fucking moron, depression isn't something you can just tell a person to stop doing.

Satisfying and fulfilling relationships enhance serotonin levels which prevent depression.

The girl was obviously not bringing her fair share to the table.

US expert says scientist was murdered in Singapore

SINGAPORE (May 21, 2013): An American scientist found hanged in Singapore last year was murdered and his death made to look like a suicide as part of a conspiracy, a US pathologist told an inquiry Tuesday.

Edward Adelstein, 75, a deputy medical examiner in Missouri, contradicted Singapore police findings that Shane Todd killed himself, but admitted his conclusions were based on pictures of the body and second-hand information.

Todd's parents, who also plan to testify, say their son was killed in June 2012 because of his work for a Singapore electronics research institute with alleged links to a Chinese firm accused of involvement in espionage.

"The cause of death of Dr. Todd was strangulation by a ligature around his neck," Adelstein said in a written statement admitted as evidence Tuesday at the Singapore inquiry, adding that "I would rule his death a murder - a homicide."

He said Todd was "a very dangerous person" to the two Asian companies, and asserted without offering any evidence that "they had him killed" and well-trained "assassins" may have been involved.

Adelstein was brought in to work on the case by the Todd family. Two other US medical examiners acting as independent experts support the suicide findings and will be asked to testify at the two-week inquest, Singapore officials say.

A verdict is expected by late June and will only address the cause of death.

Under questioning during a live video link from the United States, Adelstein said Todd could have been disabled with a taser - an electronic device designed to stun - and killed with an arm lock before being hanged.

In an October 2012 report, Adelstein had said that Todd, a well-built 31-year-old, was killed by "garroting" but on Tuesday the doctor said he was speculating at the time.

Todd's former employer, the Institute of Microelectronics (IME), and China's Huawei Technologies have denied working on a project involving Todd but confirmed they held preliminary talks on a potential research venture.

A US congressional committee last year labelled Huawei and ZTE, another Chinese telecom firm, as potential security threats that should be excluded from US government contracts and barred from acquiring US firms.

Todd was part of an IME research team working on gallium nitride, a semiconductor that can be used in radar and satellite communications.

Adelstein said photographs of Todd's remains at his US funeral showed knuckle injuries and a forehead bruise that could have resulted from a fight.

The US medical examiner, who said he had examined 40 people who died by hanging, questioned the competence of the Singapore police, saying their findings cannot be trusted.

Police investigators earlier testified that there were no signs of a struggle in the apartment where Todd's body was found hanging from the top of a locked bathroom door by his girlfriend.

A Singaporean psychiatrist told the inquiry that Todd was prescribed anti-depressants three months before his death in June 2012.

"I don't take psychiatric diagnosis very seriously," Adelstein said in his video testimony Tuesday. "It is not a real science. I am very suspicious of psychiatric diagnosis."

The doctor, echoing the family's statements, said Todd "was involved in research with a company that he felt was violating American security" and had "no unsolvable problems" that would have forced him to take his own life.

Former colleagues of the researcher have rejected the Todd family's claim that he worked on a secret project that could harm US security.

Todd's parents said in media interviews that he expressed fears for his life before resigning from the state-linked Singapore institute and had been looking forward to returning to the United States. – AFP

U.S. Doctor Tells Singapore Inquiry Shane Todd Was Murdered
By Andrea Tan
May 21, 201

Shane Todd, a U.S. research engineer found hanged in his Singapore apartment, was murdered and may have been shot by a taser gun, a doctor engaged by Todd’s family told a coroner’s inquest.

“This is my speculation,” Edward Adelstein, a deputy medical examiner of Boone and Callaway counties in Missouri, told the inquiry by video link today. He said his opinion was based on photographs of Todd’s body.

Todd, 31 when he died, may have been killed because of his sensitive work at the Institute of Microelectronics and possible technology transfers to China, his father Rick has said. Singapore opened the inquiry after Todd’s family disputed a finding by police and four pathologists that the engineer committed suicide by hanging.

Marks on Todd’s knuckles were bruises from a fight, Adelstein said. He disputes findings by other pathologists that the marks were caused by the gravitational movement of blood after death.

“People who know how to kill you will kill you in a way that makes it difficult to detect,” Adelstein said in response to a question by a lawyer for Singapore who asked what evidence he had for his theories. “Maybe I’m more conspiratorial than you are.”

The Coroner’s Inquiry is Shane Truman Todd. CI002014 of 2012. Singapore Subordinate Courts.

Todd’s boss denies trying to influence his co-workers

AMERICAN researcher Dr Shane Todd’s supervisor at the Singapore Institute of Microelectronics (IME), Dr Patrick Lo, has denied that the institute tried to influence evidence given to the police.

During the sixth day of an inquiry into Dr Todd’s death last June, Senior State Counsel Tai Wei Shyong read out portions of an audio recording of a meeting that took place in April this year between Dr Lo and several IME employees.

According to transcripts, Dr Lo had said to the employees: “You must be very careful ... that’s why there’s legal to look over your statement, so you don’t get into trouble ... You will have one more chance to look at (your statement) again.”

Tai said the meeting could amount to an attempt to “try and influence the views of the witnesses’... statements given before this court”, but Dr Lo disagreed.

He said he had repeatedly told the employees that they had an obligation to tell the police the truth. — The Straits Times / Asia News Network

Low serotonin is correlated to, but there is insufficient evidence it causes depression. Besides you don't need a vagina to boost serotonin. All you need is a strong cup of black coffee in the morning.

Dead American researcher's family questions Singapore evidence tactics, doubts process
(12 mins ago)

The family of a US scientist found hanged in Singapore last year walked out of a coroner's inquiry into their son's death today, saying they had “lost faith'' in the proceedings.
The move came after their star witness, a US pathologist who never examined the body, came under intense questioning for saying Shane Todd (pictured) may have been killed by assassins after quitting a high-tech project for two Asian companies, AFP reports.
Singapore authorities believe he committed suicide.
“The prosecution brings forth witnesses at the last minute and we have no chance to question it. Basically we actually have lost faith in the process,’’ the late researcher's father Rick Todd said outside court.
“We were told from the beginning that this will be honest and open. We were just chastised this morning for bringing forth evidence,'' he said, referring to an email the family's lawyers had introduced.
The family stood up and left the court after learning that a Frenchman who knew Todd, Luis Alejandro Andro Montes, was going to testify that the American was still alive the day before his body was found on June 24, 2012.
Earlier today Edward Adelstein, 75, a deputy medical examiner in Missouri engaged by the family, had testified that Todd was murdered in his Singapore apartment and his death made to look like a suicide as part of a conspiracy.
Adelstein, testifying by live video link from the United States, admitted his conclusions were based only on pictures of the body and second-hand information.
Todd's parents say their son was killed because of his work for a Singapore electronics research institute with alleged links to a Chinese company accused of involvement in espionage.
Singapore's state-linked Institute of Microelectronics and China's Huawei Technologies have denied working on a project involving Todd, but confirmed they held preliminary talks on a potential research venture.
Adelstein said Shane Todd was “a very dangerous person'' to the two Asian companies, and asserted without offering any evidence that “they had him killed'' and well-trained assassins may have been involved.
Two other US medical examiners acting as independent experts support the suicide findings and were set to testify at the inquest, which was scheduled to end on May 28. A verdict is expected by late June and will only address the cause of death.
A US congressional committee last year labeled Huawei and ZTE, another Chinese telecom firm, as potential security threats that should be excluded from US government contracts and barred from acquiring US firms.
Medical examiner Adelstein, under questioning during the live video link, said Todd could have been disabled with a taser – an electronic device designed to stun – and killed with an arm lock before being hanged.
District Judge Chay Yuen Fatt, who is overseeing the inquest, chided Adelstein for speculating and reminded him he was being asked to present forensic evidence.
In an October 2012 report Adelstein had said that Todd, a well-built 31-year-old, was killed by “garroting’’ but today the doctor said he was speculating at the time.
Todd was part of an IME research team working on gallium nitride, a semiconductor that can be used in radar and satellite communications.
