Tea party leader Mayfield commits suicide, Ridgeland police confirm http://onlinemadison...&SubSectionID=1

Ridgeland attorney and Mississippi tea party leader Mark Mayfield died this morning of an apparent suicide, Ridgeland Police said...

Mayfield served as vice chairman of the Mississippi Tea Party and was arrested for conspiring with Clayton Kelly to take photos of Thad Cochran's infirmed wife at St. Catherine's Village in Madison.

Mayfield was given a $250,000 bond at his initial hearing and posted a $25,000 cash bond.

Not the outcome I was expecting, nor was hoping for.  His behavior was unacceptable, but suicide?

Hmm. That's going to lead to a whole barge-full of speculation about what else might have come out at trial.

Yep.
