Death of Epstein-Linked Clinton Aide Ruled a Suicide Despite Strange Circumstances
Arkansas police have ruled the mysterious death of a former special advisor to Bill Clinton to be a suicide.
Mark Middleton, 59 was found last May at the Heifer Ranch in Perryville, Arkansas hanged from a tree with a gunshot wound to his chest.
Arkansas Circuit Judge Alice Gray ruled that details, but not photographs of the death could be released after Middleton’s family petitioned for the information.
According to the Daily Mail, “Middleton was Bill Clinton’s special advisor who admitted Jeffrey Epstein to the White House on seven of the at least 17 times.”
Additionally, Middleton was reported to have flown on Epstein’s infamous “Lolita Express” jet.
The New York Post added that Deputy Jeremy Lawson of the Perry County Sheriff’s Department’s account of the crime scene, “includes that while officers located a gun case and three boxes of buckshot in Middleton’s BMW SUV, there was no weapon in sight.”
Middleton left his job at the White House in 1995. The following year, the Los Angeles Times reported, his executive access was reduced after an investigation determined he abused his connections in an effort to become “an international dealmaker.”
In his time in the White House, Middleton also served as assistant to Clinton’s chief of staff Thomas F. “Mack” McLarty. He had most recently been working for his family’s HVAC business,
