I suspect he was (the Washington Post said he had died) a normal person trying to live his life. Yes, he was at the exclusive school, so his family may have had money, but I am guessing this is his 15 minutes of fame awarded posthumously. Someone may come forward and share but I have heard nothing yet.

No matter he didn't deserve what Romney is accused of doing to him. If it is true Romney should be ashamed and publicly apologize to his family, and all of America.

What is unbelievable is that there are right wing nuts out there who are praising Romney for doing this. The base is once again energized by bigotry and cruelty.
