"US businessman dies in fall in Jordan" by Associated Press | May 14, 2010
AMMAN, Jordan — The president of a defense firm based in South Carolina fell to his death from the second floor of a deserted building in the Jordanian capital, security officials said yesterday, three days after his body was found.
Police have ruled out foul play.
John Zinn, 33, president and chief executive officer of Defense Venture Group, was in Amman for a military exhibition when he died “after suffering an accident while on a business trip,’’ his company said.
Four senior Jordanian officials said Zinn’s body was found lying behind a 40-foot wall in the basement of an abandoned building in Amman’s rough-and-tumble Hay al-Masraweh district....
A top security official said an investigation showed that Zinn was highly intoxicated.
That the cover story being put out?

WTF is it with AmeriKan officials?
It's all one big party, isn't it -- even a hulking, rotting corpse of an empire.
He and another official also involved in the ongoing investigation said preliminary reports show no indication of foul play or attempted suicide.
So he was drunk and wandering around the second-floor of a deserted building when he fell?
Sorry, folks, that would NOT BE ENOUGH to KILL YOU!
Break a few bones, maybe (maybe not), but not enough to kill you.
A third official said Jordanian intelligence has taken over the investigation because of the “suspicious circumstances’’ surrounding Zinn’s death.
AS WE SUSPECTED all along!!!
