The Daily Mail reported:
The anti-Putin, Latvian-American businessman found dead in Washington DC this week was discovered in the street outside the apartment building where he lived after falling to his death, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Dan Rapoport, 52, was found outside 2400 Main Street apartments on August 14th shortly before 6pm.
His body was discovered in the street along with his cracked cellphone, $2,620 cash, a keyring with a lanyard and a cracked white headphone.
Russian media reported that he was found dead from an apparent suicide after setting his dog free in a nearby park.
DC Metropolitan police also told DailyMail.com on Wednesday that they do not suspect foul play.
But his widow Alena denied that he took his own life, insisting to Russian newswire: ‘There were no notes, no suicide.’
Three days before his death, Rapoport posted a haunting image on Facebook of Marilyn Brando as Colonel Kurtz in Apocalypse Now with the words: ‘The horror, the horror.’
In the months before his death, Rapoport had been complaining to friends that he was being ripped off by a Russian investment firm.
“MARILYN Brando???” I think the writer meant MARLON, who was most definitely a man, not a woman named Marilyn. What happened to this writer’s spellcheck?? And why/how are Jared and Ivanka involved in this story? Article doesn’t say!
