Holy crap that is full on. That is such a cruel senseless killing (even if he was on BB) for what, I imagin it was just to make him easier to rob?

Big call...conspiracy?
Would very much like to know which club that happened in as I spend a decent amount of time in the bars at Sanlitun...., currently nursing a hangover from a venture in that direction. But, I aint dead, so I guess it could be worse.
Would also like to know who he was with..., he bought two beers.

THE death of the former Big Brother contestant Gordon Sloan remains a mystery after Beijing police abandoned an investigation because of a lack of leads.
The family of the 34-year-old architect spoke out for the first time yesterday hoping to quell speculation that he died of a drug overdose after collapsing in a nightclub on September 1.
A Sydney businessman, Andy Schollum, denied his nephew had injected drugs or that family had been forced to turn off his life support at Chaoyang hospital.
"We don't know what to believe [but] the assertion that Gordon injected a toxic substance is absolutely incorrect and has caused the family deep emotional distress," Mr Schollum said.
"He had not been injected in any way. The toxic substances were found in his stomach. The doctors who examined Gordon stated that his violent reaction to these substances proved that his system was completely unused to them. He would not have knowingly ingested these substances."
Mr Schollum, who would not say what the substance was, said his nephew had been in China for three weeks on business. They had spoken by phone the day before his death and he had chatted about fitness and plans for his birthday next month.
Mr Sloan had arrived at a nightclub in the district of Sanlitun about 3am. Staff say he ordered two beers, sat at a table and appeared to go to sleep. An ambulance was called when they couldn't wake him and the club was closed soon afterwards.
Although he was resuscitated briefly at hospital Mr Sloan did not regain consciousness and was in a coma when his parents arrived from New Zealand. Over the next week there were signs he may recover, but a CAT scan on September 9 showed he was brain dead.
"Thankfully, Gordon passed away naturally and peacefully with his direct family at his bedside," Mr Schollum said. "The family did not turn off his life support system. His death was directly related to hypoxia, deprivation of oxygen to the brain."
