From the LVRJ: Las Vegas attorney David Amesbury, who pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate in the federal investigation into fraud and corruption at homeowners associations, has been found dead in Northern California.
"I can confirm that he has died," said Frank Cremen, the defense lawyer who had been representing Amesbury in the investigation.
Cremen said Amesbury's body was found hanging Sunday at his brother's property in Grass Valley, Calif., where he was recovering from injuries he sustained in a brutal assault in Henderson in November. Grass Valley is a small community northeast of Sacramento.
Amesbury, 57, who once ran a popular courthouse restaurant, is the second attorney and key player in the sweeping federal investigation to turn up dead in less than a week.
Last Tuesday, embattled construction defects attorney Nancy Quon, a major target of the probe, was found dead in the bathtub of her Henderson condominium at The District. Henderson police have not ruled out suicide.
A few days after FBI agents and Las Vegas police conducted a valleywide raid in the investigation in September 2008, former police officer Christopher Van Cleef shot himself to death. His name had surfaced in the investigation as a possible target.

I hope we are having some good investigations going on. After all,two attorney's biting the dust in less than a week cannot be good. After all, the sharks can only eat so much debris.

Emille Durkheim, in his treatise Suicide (1897), proposed the grand theory of "anomie" as a descriptive process of "normlessness", or "lawlessness". In any situation in which these features predominate, one will find a high incidence of suicide rates. Surely, when looked at from the standopoint of statistical significance, in terms of profession and suicide rates, two suicides occurring within 4 days of each other, embedded in the same type of "law breaking behavior" (committed by attorneys none-the-less)scientifically demonstrates a significant relationship between the suicides of Quon and Amesbury. This writer, based on personal experience over a 14-year-period, can attest to the depth and breadth of legal fraud that has been occurring in the Clark County justice system for over a decade. You think the HOA issue is big? They need to overhaul the Child Protective Services and Family Court system in Clark County, as the same type of legal fraud and corruption flows through the life-blood veins of administration, adjudication, and final verdicts rendered. Parents are having their parent-child emotional bonds severed, all on the basis of legal fraud. The Quon/Amesbury suicides represent the end-stages of a cancer that has gone untreated, with legal fraud running amuck in the body of judicial decision making that goes on in the justice system of Clark County Nevada. Investigators in each case, in utter statements of insanity, claim there is no relation between the suicides. Then there is that Notary down in Laughlin and what happened to her (also found dead). Wake up Clark County and State of Nevada. The legal fraud that gets produced out of Clark County Nevada is now impacting other judicial systems nationally. (1) Massachusetts. (2) Ohio. (3) Indianna. (4) Illinois, just to mention a few other states that have been impacted by the legal fraud you turn a blind eye towards.
