I don't think it was a murder weapon either.
Suffocation by pillow would not have been a professional hit. It would be detectable...and only used in an impulsive crime of opportunity by an amateur.
I'm still wondering why the funeral home in El Paso disposed of his body fluids after he was embalmed. Down the El Paso sewer system. In other words, literally flushed.

I can entertain that hypothesis. But then my question would be: what of the unwrinkled clothes? Did they put those on him after killing him? And if so, why then replace the pillow over his face? Or were his clothes simply unwrinkled when he laid down, and they were so fast, efficient, and quick, nothing was disturbed even in the slightest?
Possible, yes. But more probable than him simply dying suddenly and dropping the pillow on himself or some other scenario? Devil's advocate says no imo. But certainly possible.
I do believe an autopsy should be performed.
Peace.
"Unwrinkled" is subjective.
What was the material of his PJ's? It was also his first night there, so they probably hadn't been worn the night before...coming newly laundered and folded in the suitcase.
As for the pillow? I don't know...but Poindexter's clarification was that the pillow was "above", rather than "over" Scalia's head.

Wait what?
I didn't think that was legal, isn't that considered a biohazard?

Now my question though is... if the pillow wasn't over his face, and that was the only overt suggestion of possible foul play to begin with, what cause for suspicion other than conjecture about political or social agenda do we still have?
Peace.

If this had become an actual murder inquiry...Mr. Poindexter would currently be the prime suspect....and as the prime suspect, ALL of his testimony would also be suspect.

Objectively speaking? We only have Poindexter's description of the pillow's placement...and that has been both ambiguous and/or contradictory. So it's a wash there...but still enough to establish a reasonable doubt; a pro or con for both sides of the murder argument.

Also..."unwrinkled" would also indicate that Justice Scalia died shortly after he went to bed after 9:30 P.M.
Consider: IF this was a private party...and the Justice as guest of honor was known by the other guests to be turning in early (while everyone was still gathered together)...it would invite the attempt on his life while he was alone in the room section and while the majority of guests (potential witnesses) were still gathered together in the dinning area.
