Given the fact that Porter Goss resigned from his post as CIA
Director yesterday [5 May 2006] amid rumors of scandal:

...the mention of William Colby's unfortunate demise 10 years ago
seems all the more appropriate, given the proximity in the closeness
in nature of the calendar dates.

On April 27, 1996, Colby died in an apparent boating accident near his home in Rock Point, Maryland. He reportedly did 
not mention any canoeing plans to his wife, nor was it normal for him to go boating at night.

Colby's body was eventually found, underwater, on May 6, 1996. The lifevest his friends said he usually wore was 
missing. The body was found 20 yards from the canoe, after the area had been thoroughly searched multiple times. The 
subsequent inquest found that he died from drowning and hypothermia after collapsing from a heart attack or stroke and 
falling out of his canoe.
