>>713875106Our first secretary of defense, after the position was created in ww2, was declared insane after being fired, kept locked away where his family couldn't meet him, in the top floor of a place that WASNT a hospital, where the "doctor" barely ever spoke to him, and a young boy was his caretaker.
When his brother finally found a way to see him, and found him perfectly normal, he went home and made plans to take care of his "illness" with a nice quiet retirement from all politics in the countryside.
He rang up the building and "doctor" to declare his right to withdraw his brother as family, and went to board a train to get him.
Before he even got on the train the former secretary was dead.
"Jumped out a window"
"Spontaneous Suicide" (because he had no suicidal tendencies)
the boy who spent all day with the secretary was never interviewed, the "doctor" disappeared into history books.
And federal agents of some sort came by and confiscated the diary of the secretary.
A diary that supposedly had mention of some clandestine dealings between President Truman and notable members of the Mafia.
