2. First of all it's 19 Action News but why would you fly if...
you thought someone had tampered with your plane?

I don't doubt for a minute that this plane crash is suspicious but if you suspected tampering, why would you get in the thing?

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - An Ohio pilot who died in a small plane crash was a Republican media consultant who helped operate campaign Web sites for President Bush and former presidential nominee John McCain.

Forty-five-year-old Michael Connell of Akron was killed Friday when his plane crashed near a vacant house in a rural area of Uniontown, about 10 miles southeast of Akron. He was attempting to land the aircraft at the nearby Akron-Canton Airport.

Connell was the CEO and founder of Cleveland-based New Media Communications, which built campaign Web sites for Bush and McCain, according to the company's Web site. The site says the company also worked with the Ohio Republican Party and the Republican National Committee, among other political groups.

No one on the ground was injured. The plane did not have any passengers.

8. Conscience pangs most likely.



Could be he felt because of the shadowy life he led that karma would eventually catch up with him.




It did.
