#2 Consulates aren't afforded the same diplomatic immunity as embassies, right?

And how the hell do you get to sleep at a consulate? A consulate or embassy abroad is totally useless if you actually need anything. The only thing they're good for is a new passport.

#3 Sounds like the guy lacked money to get home, or perhaps had lost his passport & was waiting a new one. At least, that would be the official story about his reason for staying in the consulate.

Very curious.

#6 Was he helping in the galley? Maybe he was sent downstairs for more ice. Could have been just another unfortunate culinary accident.

#8 The NYC Coroner ruled it a suicide : said the guy stabbed himself with multiple knives. Make of it what you will.

#9 Sufficiently to nearly detatch one of his hands.

Could be, I suppose.
