Speculations About Justice Scalias Death Arise Less than a day after news broke of the shocking death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, officials in Texas declared that the 79-year-old conservative jurist had died of a heart attack. Scalias death certificate will list the cause of death as myocardial infarction. A report from WFAA notes that Scalias body was embalmed prior to the autopsy being performed, though the extent of the process was not immediately disclosed. It is unknown what the potential impact on his autopsy might have been. After arriving at 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, the Sunset Funeral Home embalmed Scalias remains, the TV station reported. Embalming is required by Texas law before a body can be transported out of state. Reports indicate that Scalias body will be flown to Virginia as soon as today. Of course, the manner of death is provoking suspicionsgiven that the justice passed away in his sleep, alone in his room without any witnesses to his death. Though law enforcement authorities at the ranch claim there were absolutely no signs of foul play, questions still remain. Scalias personal physician, for example, claims that the conservative judge had never suffered from heart problems. What do you think? Is there more to this story than were being told, or is this just an unfortunate tragedy?
