Death by Barbell: UN Official John Ashe 'Crushes Own Throat' Before Testifying in Clinton Corruption Case
# <center> To say the death of the former UN official John Ashe is suspicious is an understatement. </center>

Officially, Ashe's death has been called a 'weight lifting accident' that occurred at his home on June 22nd, 2016. Ashe was a former U.N. ambassador from Antigua and Barbuda and president of the 193-nation assembly from September 2013 to September 2014.

Anything is possible of course but it seems highly unlikely. Fatal weightlifting accidents do occur of course, though they are exceedingly rare, but it's the combination of the timing of Mr. Ashe's death and the circumstances around his impending testimony that raised further suspicions. Initially, the death was ruled a heart attack.

> John Ashe died Wednesday from “traumatic asphyxia with laryngeal cartilage fractures” after dropping a barbell on his neck, a rep for the Westchester County Medical Examiner’s office told the Daily News.

 > Ashe, 61, was working out on a bench in his Dobbs Ferry home when the deadly accident happened.

> The weight of the barbell was unclear, and it was not immediately known if anyone was with Ashe at the time.

There's reason to believe that Ashe was set to testify against the Clinton's in a corruption case that dates back to the mid-90s.

Details surrounding the corruption scandal are hard to find but several sources indicate that the case involved efforts by the Chinese government to influence president Bill Clinton in 1996 through billionaire Charlie Trie.

>Ashe was found dead just days before he was set to testify against Clinton in relation to matters pertaining to a corruption case where Chinese billionaire Charlie Trie helped launder $1.2 million dollars as part of Chinese government efforts to influence Bill Clinton’s 1996 presidential election.

[Source: Disobedient News](http://disobedientmedia.com/2017/05/oann-releases-report-on-seth-rich-murder-raises-questions-about-chinese-corruption/)

In 2015, the Daily Beast reported that another billionaire Chinese national, Ng Lap Seng, was charged with conspiracy to bribe a UN official

>Ng being the mega-rich Chinese national who used a proxy to pour more than $1 million into the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton-Gore campaign back in 1996. Scandal was joined by embarrassment when it turned out that Ng had been favored with 10 visits to the White House, including an elevator ride with Hillary Clinton.

>The former U.N. General Assembly president, was busted by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s last year for turning his post into a “platform for profit” by accepting more than $1 million in bribes.

>The alleged conspiracy involves six others including a billionaire Chinese real estate mogul, two diplomats and a humanitarian organization officer.

>Three defendants have pleaded guilty. Ashe was charged with tax fraud, but prosecutors had said at a hearing last month that they were weighing additional charges.

## Arkancide in DC

The summer of 2016 saw a string of political murders with links to the DNC and the Clinton campaign: Seth Rich, Shawn Lucas and John Ashe. The Seth Rich murder has gained a lot of traction recently, and in the process has generated renewed interest in Shawn Lucas' death of an apparent 'overdose'. The deaths of the Wikileaks trio of Ratner, Jones and MacFayden (all in 2016) is also receiving increased scrutiny by citizen investigators. A common thread to all of these deaths is the links with either Hillary or the DNC leaks. Individuals who have done business with or crossed paths with the Clinton Criminal network, have a tendency to end up dead. Ashe's suspicious death falls into the category of Arkancide/Clinton Body Count.

I can tell you as someone who has benchpressed over 315lbs four times and routinely bench 20+ reps of 225lbs it is very unlikely this occurred.  Why not?  When you bench you know your limits.  Someone who lifts would never bench to fail or max rep without a spotter and certainly if they did they would do so without barend clamps on so in the case of catastrophic failure you would be able to lower it onto your chest and then swing the bar side to side, and in doing so, the weights would fall off, making a loud and embarrassing noise, but saving your life.  Also there is another factor, survival instinct.  One time I personally was lifting to fail and I locked up.  I hit my stick point and could not lift it any higher and my spotter let me max my negative to break through that stick point.  This spotter was my younger brother who was looking at all the hot girls at the gym and not noticing I was slowly failing lower and lower with the bar terminating at my clavicles (collarbone).  As I looked up and saw he was not going to give me any lift the bar reached my chest and instinctively my head turned to the side and instead of putting it on my throat I rested it on my trapezius muscle (lateral neck/back muscles) which allowed me to breathe until he woke TFU!and lifted it off me (asshole).  Also there is a third factor, force.  Physics dictates that Force equals Mass times Velocity.  The force is equal to the weight of something multiplied by how fast it is going.  If he was say benching 315lbs and slowly failing it would be close to that much force.  At half the weight and twice the speed the force would be the same.  For example a 2,000lb car at 10mph is roughly equal to a 2lb bullet at 10,000mph.  Then there is pound per square inch.  A car is bigger so the force would be spread out while the bullet is narrow and the force would be concentrated into the point.  Your throat has crichoid cartilage to protect it and to crush ones throat would mean to collapse their entire airway, breaking the cartilaginous rings and suffocating him with a constant, downward, pressure, which would not happen unless the force pushing down was equal on both sides of the bar.  I have never heard of anyone crushing their throats on accident while working out unless one of two scenarios takes place.  That being a hand slip or someone getting a push up off the bench rests and lockin their arms and having far too much weight that they cannot lift under sny circumstance.  If he were to have an imperfect grip or have had his hands slip off the bar from sweat the bar could fall but it would not fall evenly because as one hand would slip the other would still be gripping it, giving them a split second to roll to one side, and enough time to avoid this fatal injury.  Basically as a Nurse and as a weightlifter and athlete as well as having a Pre-Medicine degree I cannot see how this would be possible naturally, from experience lifting and from knowing anatomy and physiology.  His nervous system, having experienced tremendous stress would have released a cascade of endorphins and adrenaline into his blood stream to lift it off his throat.  "Fight or flight" and this would be both.  Fighting for his life and fleeing the weight of the bar threatening his airway.  This is highly suspicious and very unlikely to have occured naturally in my opinion both medically and experientially.

Thank you for taking the time, this is a very insightful comment! You might want to turn this comment into your own post, as i think it is an excellent analysis. 

From the information i gathered for this post, it seems as though it is unclear if there was another person present (possibly a spotter) when the accident occurred. This is also very puzzling, since the 'accident' occurred at his home. You would think that there would be a limited number of people who would be potential workout partners, these would be very important people for police to bring in for questioning, imho. So, this could explain why someone would be benching close to their max, like you said, it is very unlikely that someone who exercises regularly would be benching their max without assistance.

Thats what my private college Bachelor of Science degree gets me.  But you always have to look at every possibility in these types of "strange occurances".  I mean, Bing Search Killary Clinton and see what comes up.  Whenever I see the media not cover something or a really closed minded forensic analysis I have to take out the fine toothed comb and nothing helps more than knowledge and experience and most importantly a good imagination.
