Goodbye Ken (The Shrink) Rest In Peace

[MBENZ]

how can you believe anything in any community when your only source is a bunch of posters saying he's dead without any concrete proof?

As for the car crash, that still gets reported no matter what town they live in. As of now, no reports anywhere.

Exactly,absolutly nothing has been posted by anybody that comes from a repudible source.This guys feet got itchy after the 38 arrest and I would not be shocked at all if he is in a safehouse somewhere.

I trust Bill Dozer

Proof

I trust Bill Dozer

For those people who have been on the industry side of things, should know something is not right. We have ZERO proof, and ZERO public info. If it is true it is very sad, but we cannot draw conclusions until we get proof. Other posters here and MODS is not enough proof for me. As far as I am concerned this is merely speculation until is can be verified by a public source...and no his newphew doesn't count. He could be in hiding, witness protections etc.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves until this is confirmed by media, police, or a public official.

[wildemu]

You could have Bill Dozer, Wilhelm, and mofome all say he's dead, it doesn't mean anything if there aren't any reports.

[goldengreek]

i don't think this is the time nor place to bash wil @ rx. He made a respectful post at eog, and whether the post is stickied or not at rx is not a measure of feelings.

wil is a piece of shit

This just in from Sandy, a reporter at the Outer Banks Sentinel in or around Ducks, NC.

I gave her the EOG front page story and links to threads at EOG and OGD.

Police departments here say they don't have a clue what these folks are talking about. I also checked www.pilotonline.com which is the Virginian Pilot which covers Chesapeake where I understand that he lives - nothing there either - that is only about 50 miles from here so someone would know if it was an accident between here and there.

Bill Dozer stated "It has been reported" clearly knowing as much as you and I. You don't have to fake your death to go into witness protection. You simply disappear.

If this turns out to be untrue I feel sorry for the psychological pain that will ensue as it is clear that many are suffering from the loss. Ken was like family to Mo and many at EOG and I believe, or hope, he wouldn't do that to individuals who considered him family.

[AMBlai01]

I don' tknow what is going on here but if this turns out to be true....My condolences to friends and family

[Bluehorseshoe]

Is it officially time to call BS in regards to his death? Not one credible news source has posted anything and it would have been done already if it were true.

Nephew Tells Friends EOG.com Owner Killed in Car Crash

"He (Weitzner) owed a ton of money to a number of offshore sportsbooks," claimed one Gambling911.com source.

[pavyracer]

Faking the deaths is one thing. Faking the funerals or the death certificates will be harder. If this story turns out to be a hoax or a cover up the Feds will get involved and all sport forums will be investigated inside out. They will not leave a stone unturned regardless if the sports forum is involved with illegal activities or not.

[obamaismyuncle]

Everything from a murder/suicide to a home explosion was claimed. However, news reporters from Weitzner's home town of Chesapeake, Virginia were unaware of any murder, suicide or even a fatal car accident for that matter, neither were the local authorities.

[Sam Odom]

99% of the people saying anything about this are 100% sure they were told or heard Shrink & Mrs are dead.

[mr. leisure]

I`m thinking either murder or murder / suicide ...
The police are keeping it hush because of his gambling ties

Old news Landers get with the program

[Santo]

I don't get all these references to his hometown in Virginia when he was supposedly on vacation in Duck, NC?

[DavidCopper]

Something really shady going on here.....just another reason wy sportsbetting will never be legalized. TOo much shady people.. My question is did he REALLY post that farewell on EOG, or did someone do it for him???

[pavyracer]

Santo,

If I post a thread today that I will be vacationing in Duck, NC but I'm actually going to Asheville, NC for vacation does this mean I will be in Duck, NC tomorrow?

I believe if he actually died regardless if it was on vacation in the US or overseas the local news at the town he actually lives and owns a house will know about it whether is a car crash, a home explosion or accidental death. Usually the families gather at the deceased people house to plan for funeral arrangements etc.

This is so strange

[mr. leisure]

wow

Tony Montana has made a statement

As you can imagine this is a terrible time for our family. I have lost my beautiful mother and my close friend and stepfather Ken.

I just want to come on EOG to confirm the lose. Ken and my mother have passed away. They took their own lives sometime late Wednesday night or early Thursday mornig with sleeping pills carbon monoxide...

I want to let all of you know that he loved EOG and the posters...it was his passion. He mention this in a note he left for me and wanted to say he was sorry for leaving you all...mostly Mo, Blondie, Ball, and Jimmy who worked so hard to keep EOG rolling. I am at his desk...crying my eyes out as I type..

They left no reason for what they did thou I have my own ideas....I am just very sad and my heart is broken...I lost my best friend of the last 40+ years and the greatest mom a fellas could have....my heart is truely broken. If there is a heaven I know my mom is there planting flowers and waiting on her family to arrive one day....Kens family...by brother, our wives and their heartbroken grandchildren will celebrate their lives on Tuesday.

I know that there has been a lot of rumors flying around and I must admit I was worried this past week that something horrible had happened and my gut was right. I just wanted to come on and share with the folks at EOG what is the only truth in this terrible day....THE SHRINK and my mother are dead..

Thanks for all the good times EOGers...!!

And those who love to to be cruel and run them down...find a new big bad wolf..

JJ GOLD was right, SUICIDE.

A cowards way out...

must have had the heat on him bad

[jagaf22]

WOW...I don't think my post should of been deleted yesterday. Big brother was quickly closing in!

[BeatTheJerk]

For some reason I don't believe this. Now I may believe Ken is a fvcking rat and him and his wife are in fact in the witness protection program.

WAYNESVILLE — Waynesville police have identified two people who were found with fatal gunshot wounds early Saturday, and a man who may be connected to the case is in custody.

In a news conference at 1 p.m. today, Waynesville Police Chief Bill Hollingsed identified those who died as Robert Leroy Pennington, 34, and Mark Steven Hicks, 26, both of Waynesville.

A third man, David Preston Saxon Getty, 44, of Waynesville, is in the Haywood County Detention Center on unrelated weapons and drug charges, Hollingsed said.

Pennington and Hicks were both shot in the head at Getty's home at 34 Intrepid Drive, Hollingsed said. Getty made the 911 call to police at about 1 a.m. Saturday. He was later taken into custody.

What would be a man's way out? Going on a killing spree and getting killed by the cops?

You don't go out, you man up and face your troubles.

take your lumps like a man...Madoff is in jail, appears thats where this guy was headed...

[gambleballs]

I'm convinced. Tons of condolences on Jackie's sister's FB page. Would be one hell of an orchestrated cover-up if something shady was going on.

My thoughts are with the family.

This wasn't Weasel Weitzner's style if he couldn't successfully frame someone else he felt he had no alternative.

I wonder if he had one last drink.

Suicide is rarely understood unless there is a grave illness and/or old age involved. A double suicide is incredibly hard to grasp

So logic will not apply to any speculation.

obviously had serious heat on him, either from feds or from people he owed. Had to be bad to go out like that.

[robmpink]

This is all messed up. If the heat was on him, why would his wife take her life? She has a son with a bunch of grandchildren.
