"Yesterday, Chirls said that he accompanied Frankel's brothers to the D.C. Medical Examiner's Office to identify his body.

"We were told there were no signs of trauma or injury that would be consistent with a crime or a fall," Chirls said. "What they found was consistent with death from natural causes while out running."

The D.C. Medical Examiner's Office declined to comment.

Chirls said that Frankel was found 20 feet from a running trail in jogging clothes and - without offering specifics - that he had been experiencing medical symptoms the previous morning that were consistent with the preliminary finding.

So far, though, there is no indication as to how Frankel ended up in the water, Chirls said."


There is something that they are not revealing or not conclusive yet, we've not heard the whole story. Is a heart attack considered "natural causes"? Could he have been poisoned? We should wait for the autopsy and full police report.
