41. Single Pillow Theory
Mon Feb 15, 2016, 09:53 AM
Feb 2016

The single-pillow theory (or magic-pillow theory, as it is commonly called by Murdoch's Faux Media) was introduced by Faux News in its investigation of the natural causes death of Supine Court Justice Antonin Scalia to explain what happened with the pillow that was found on the face of Scalia but didn’t wrinkle his clothes! Given the lack of damage to the bed, Scalia’s clothing and face consistent with (his face) having been covered by a very low-velocity Plush Acme Luxury Down Pillow and the fact that No One else was in the room or asleep or was lying next to or on top of the Supine Court Justice, the Commission concluded only one, self positioned pillow was likely covering the face of the Expired Justice who seemed to be enjoying a good night’s sleep.

(Just in case....pure sarcasm)
