Recent obituaries are becoming increasingly candid about how a loved on died, even if it was by suicide or drug use or connected to mental illness.
A story in Seven Days details one Burlington, Vermont man's decision to disclose in the obit that his 57-year-old wife killed herself after three years of struggling with depression and anxiety and eventually psychosis.
A federal lawsuit by a pro-Trump politico claims that 33 state Democratic Party committees illegally laundered donations totaling $84 million that ultimately ended up in accounts that directly benefited Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for president.
Donations that on paper were supposed to benefit state Democratic committees actually ended up in large measure being passed through to the Democratic National Committee, which used it to try to get Clinton elected, according to Dan Backer, a lawyer for the Committee to Defend the President.
