Michael Connell was killed on December 19th when his Piper Saratoga airplane crashed near his northern Ohio home. Connell was flying home alone from an airport in College Park, Maryland.

Michael Connell was a high-level Republican IT consultant who was subpoenaed in a case regarding alleged tampering with the 2004 U.S. Presidential election. Ohio attorney Cliff Arnebeck alleged that Connell was threatened by Karl Rove, unless he would “take the fall” for the election fraud. Arnebeck also asked Attorney General Michael Mukasey for Michael Connell to be protected.

Connell’s unnatural and suspicious death is now raising questions around the country about the validity of this plane crash and whether or not there was any foul play involved.
