Under investigation, American Title CEO dead in grisly suicide
By David Migoya

The founder and CEO of American Title Services in Centennial was found dead in his home this week, the result of self-inflicted wounds from a nail gun, according to the Arapahoe County coroner.

Richard Talley, 57, and the company he founded in 2001 were under investigation by state insurance regulators at the time of his death late Tuesday, an agency spokesman confirmed Thursday.

It was unclear how long the investigation had been ongoing or its primary focus.

A coroner's spokeswoman Thursday said Talley was found in his garage by a family member who called authorities. They said Talley died from seven or eight self-inflicted wounds from a nail gun fired into his torso and head.

Also unclear is whether Talley's suicide was related to the investigation by the Colorado Division of Insurance, which regulates title companies.

If he could handle doing that to himself, he should have been able to handle anything.

Sheeeeewwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeee, that stinks!

Yeah, I know that I jump around like a fool just stumping my toe. Can't imagine someone doing this to themselves willingly. Someone, or some group of people, thinks we're stupid, I suppose.

Who in their right mind would kill themselves with a nail gun? You'd think a CEO would catch on that there's probably a better, less painful way to do it.

If I were to ever consider suicide I would damn sure make it painless

Does this remind anyone else of the way the mafia 'sends a message'?

Yeah, dude stuck his feet in a tub of wet cement, then after it cured, he walked to the river and jumped in.

Hey--you sayin' it couldn't happen? Cuz it could happen--to you!!

You can't really walk when both your feet are encased in the same block of cement. You would have to hop.

I'll have to remember that and just buy two buckets, one for each foot, if I ever decide to go the cement route. Thanks! ;)

This is going to make an interesting story when it all comes out. The WSJ reporter was working on OPEC stories when he went missing. Don't know how this will all tie together if it ever does.

I have seen bits and pieces in the bowels of the internet that this is being done to prevent whistleblowing.
