Vince Foster?

Can someone please tell me what were the conclusions (if any) of any probes into Vince Foster's death? As background, Vince Foster was the Clinton aide who allegedly committed suicide when Bill was President.
The reason I want to know is that my father is using Foster as an example as to why he would never vote for Hillary, and I want some good ammo (if it exists) to back up an argument that the Clintons weren't responsible (at least directly) for his death. Thanks. |

OP again -- nevermind. The wikipedia page on his death is pretty good:

| I really hate Hillary and her politics but draw the line at blaming her for Vince Foster's death. While I think it was likely he was upset over some of the unethical behaviour going on at the White House--I don't think there is any way Hillary had him killed--I just don't believe it. I think he was depressed and just lost it--very sad. |

There has been plenty of accurate, fair coverage and analysis of Foster's death. He was deeply depressed and had just begun taking antidepressants when he killed himself. He was greatly distressed over what he considered unfair media attacks on the Clintons, particularly Hillary, to whom he was very close. Then the media began attacking him personally, something he was not expecting and was not able to accept. As he put it in his suicide note, in Washington, ruining people is considered a blood sport. He was a good, honorable man, and his death was a tragedy. To blame the Clintons for it, as the OP's father wishes to, is simply beyond the pale. |

My brother-in-law strongly believes that Bill buried him. He's even gotten my sister to consider it. Amazing.
