Mark Middleton was discovered hanging from a tree and shot last May, prompting rumors that he was the latest addition to the so-called #ClintonBodyCount.
Further fueling suspicions of a cover-up, news sites initially asserted that there was no weapon found at the scene. But authorities this week claimed that a shotgun was found near the body, the New York Post reported.Â
The release of records pertaining to Middleton’s death occurred after his family appealed to keep details secret, expressing concern that graphic photos from the crime scene would be made public.
Per the Arkansas Times, Circuit Judge Alice Gray stated in June last year that while the visual material would stay confidential, the findings would be accessible in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act.
During the Clinton administration, Middleton, a Little Rock businessman, became a special aide to the president and as an advisor to Chief of Staff Thomas F. “Mack” McLarty.
He was reported to have texted his wife, Rhea, just minutes before his passing, saying that he had found “the perfect place for a nap in the sun” and expressing his appreciation for her.
A ranch worker named Ian Peters found Middleton’s corpse later that afternoon after seeing his vehicle parked for a number of hours in the same location.
The notion that the Clintons targeted Middleton was bolstered by his links to Epstein, the disgraced pedophile megadonor who died in prison while awaiting prosecution in 2019, in what many suspect was an involuntary “suicide.”
Before leaving politics in 1995, Middleton signed Epstein into the White House seven times out of 17 visits.
Conspiracies about the Clintons’ running hitlist of their political enemies began with the 1993 death of deputy White House adviser Vince Foster, who was ruled to have committed suicide after being found shot in the back of the head in a northern Virginia park.
