In related news the newly-elected and apparently reform-oriented mayor of Juneau, Alaska has been found dead under mysterious circumstances. Via CNN:
(CNN)Just weeks after he took office, the mayor of Alaska’s capital has been found dead, prompting a flurry of rumors that he was assaulted.
“Those rumors are speculation,” the Juneau Police Department said. “Detectives are actively investigating facts of the incident, and all evidence is being preserved and documented.”
This much police will say: Juneau Mayor Stephen “Greg” Fisk, 70, didn’t commit suicide, Chief Bryce Johnson told the Juneau Empire. And there were no signs of forced entry into his house.
“Forget it, Jake. It’s Eskimo Town.”
It’s the Clintons. The guy is Vince Foster’s third cousin.

My first thought: is anyone doing a detective series set in Alaska?
There are a bunch of them. Murder on the Iditarod Trail is part of one of the best known. Pretty mediocre but well known.
