A Texas judge decided no autopsy was needed only after conferring with Scalia's personal physician.
Texas Judge Who Decided No Autopsy Was Needed in Scalia Death Discloses New Details | The Blaze

She said the doctor told her that Scalia had a history of heart trouble, high blood pressure and was considered too weak to undergo surgery for a recent shoulder injury.

This is very helpful. I was really curious why no autopsy was requested considering the earlier reports had him in excellent health.

What? No conspiracy by liberals to murder St. Scalia? You mean the dude just died like sick old people do? Boring.
Unless someone accuses the judge of lying ... can't imagine who might do that ... then most people will probably accept her statement at face value.

Sadly, the conspiracy theories are running rampant right now. Facts don't matter to these people.

The facts also include that he died alone with a pillow over his head. Conducting an autopsy would surely have put to rest any questions surrounding his death and prevented many of these theories from being formed.

the pillow wasn't "over" his head but as many pillows do, it moved up toward the headboard.

I think for those like D(ump) Trump and Teddy Cruz they should have had Inside edition take pictures of they cutting him up. There will for ever be those who attempt to make this a murder thing. I am so sick and tired of those stupid people seeking to make everything out to be a matter of National concern to know every little detail.

Remember boys and girls DUMP TRUMP, send Teddy on a Cruz!

The media reported over his head. If you have other inside news, please share.

Over his head did not mean over his face. The wording was less precise than it needed to be given the paranoid nature of America.

"We discovered the judge in bed, a pillow over his head. His bed clothes were unwrinkled," Poindexter told the San Antonio Express-News.

“Was Scalia murdered?” asked talk radio host Michael Savage Monday, before calling for a “Warren Commission-like federal investigation” into Scalia’s death, a reference to the commission set up to investigate the death of President John F. Kennedy.

“How come there’s been no request for an autopsy? ... My friends, something stinks,” Savage said.

Poindexter later clarified to CNN that the pillow had been up against the headboard and had only covered Scalia's head, not his face.

There should be Congressional hearings! Hillary was behind it. We'll just use the crack legislative party that has had thirty-six Benghazi hearings.

Hillary? Are you sure it wasn't the vast right-wing conspiracy? :scratch:

I really don't get it. Scalia was pushing 80, overweight, had an incredible stressful job and had just finished a day of hunting and people are jumping right to murder. What possible reason could there be for that?
The ostensible reason was the lodge owner's statement about finding Scalia with a pillow over his head. :eek:

The lodge owner has since clarified that statement to mean above his head, not covering his head.

Anatomy 101:

On breathes through one's nose and mouth, which are located on one's FACE. The pillow was not on his FACE.
