Vice Adm. Scott Stearney, who oversaw U.S. naval forces in the Middle East, was found dead Saturday in his residence in Bahrain, officials said. Defense officials told CBS News they are calling it an "apparent suicide."

Stearney was the commander of the U.S. Navy's Bahrain-based 5th Fleet. Rear Adm. Paul Schlise, the deputy commander of Fifth Fleet, has assumed command, the Navy said in a statement.

"Scott Stearney was a decorated Naval warrior. He was a devoted husband and father, and he was a good friend to all," the statement said.

The Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Bahraini Ministry of Interior are investigating Stearney's death, the Navy said, but foul play is not suspected.

There should be more on his autopsy. Just saying "apparent suicide" doesn't cut it.

This. I'm itching to see if this is another "suicide by two shots to the back of the head" situation.

Maybe MbS wanted him dead because the admiral was one of those US officers pushing for a coup in SA?
MbS is a fucktwat and fighting for survival, He ist Stupid and Desperate enough to order a hitjob on an US admiral.

Maybe he called bullshit on the F-35 program or some other money sink of a procurement program and the cost to end his life was less than what he would cost them in future profits?

There are intel-ops black budgets to think about for Christ's sake. They depend on that money getting lost.
