The Mystery Of Mark Middleton (Part II) – Author Kirby Sommers Delves Deeper Into This ‘Murder v Suicide’ Story

Crusading author Kirby Sommers follows up on the theories surrounding the mystery of the ‘murder v suicide’ death of Clinton-Epstein associate Mark Middleton

When looking for clues as to why Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein associate Mark Middleton – whose clearly strange demise featured in The Steeple Times earlier this week – suddenly decided to commit ‘suicide’ (in quotes because I personally believe he was murdered), I place it under what I refer to as my “Arkansas lenses.”

When Bill Clinton became Attorney General from 1977 to 1979 and then Governor of Arkansas from 1979 to 1981 (and then again from 1983 to 1992), he was already involved with shady men and shady deals.

Mena, the small airfield in Arkansas, had been associated with the Washington-sponsored guns for drugs under the CIAs multiple covert operations. The most well-known connection is to the Iran-Contra affair; although Mena itself became infamous when it made into the Hollywood film American Made starring Tom Cruise in the role of drug-smuggler Barry Seal.

Mark Middleton belonged to the trusted group of men Clinton brought with him from Arkansas to Washington, D.C. During my research of Clinton’s time in Arkansas, state and local police were alleged to be corrupt answering only to him. There were consequences for those who went against him.

Middleton kept Clinton’s secrets – extra-marital affairs and other less talked about matters. This is evidenced by the fact that he is the person who gave Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell access to the White House seven out of the 17 times they are known to have visited the residence. Middleton also flew with Clinton, Epstein, Maxwell, and a couple of unidentified females aboard the now infamous ‘Lolita Express’ private jet.

Did Middleton know too much? Clearly, the answer is yes.

However, Middleton left the White House in 1995. This is where things take a turn, because while he was attempting to become an international dealmaker, he found himself suddenly barred and without access unless he obtained high-level approval. Formally, Middleton was the aid to presidential advisor Thomas F. ‘Mack’ McLarty. McLarty is one of Clinton’s oldest friends having attended the same kindergarten class in Hope, Arkansas.

While McLarty gave Middleton the bad news – it really came from Clinton.

After leaving his job, Middleton was initially allowed to continue using his business cards, had a voice-mail message on the White House telephone system and met with business clients at the dining room in the White House.

Clinton has been known to accept gratuities in exchange for his patronage. Did Middleton forget to thank him properly?

With his dreams of becoming a wheeler-dealer scratched, Middleton moved back to Arkansas and began a family owned air conditioning company.

It is my belief that were it not for the intense publicity the Epstein and Maxwell case received that Middleton would be alive today. After all, it had been a long time since he had accompanied Clinton anywhere.

Suddenly, however, the long-forgotten photos of Clinton shaking hands with Epstein and his lady-friend Maxwell were in newspapers around the world and his name was prominently displayed as the person who gave Epstein access.

Too many people, including Clinton, have much to hide about their involvement with Epstein.

On 7^th May 2022, the 59-year-old Middleton was found hanging from a tree with an extension cord around his neck and a wound to the chest. His death was ruled a suicide. Was this a message to others to stay silent?
