The messenger wrote: "It was actually from a conversation with Sw. Rama that I found out that Mahesh was one of the leading suspects in the murder of Swami Brahmananda." The messenger appears to have chosen some very, shall we say, interesting wording to convey his message. "Found out that..." and "found out that there was a rumor that..." carry very different connotations. As well, "leading suspect" sounds so very much as if, you know, law enforcement was involved, having decided there *had* been a homicide, and having narrowed down the suspects to Maharishi and a few others. I mean, somebody who wasn't aware of the rumor and what its origin was might actually think, from the way the messenger phrased it, that it was established fact that Guru Dev had been murdered and that MMY was an official suspect in the crime. But perhaps that's the way Swami Rama phrased it, and perhaps the messenger was so uninformed that he took it that way, seeing no need to qualify it. Or perhaps not.
