Scandal? Do tell.

It's all well documented. Mike Danton basically panicked when his "MALE ROOMMATE", threatned to expose Mr. Danton's alleged (Homo?) Sexual promiscuity. Mr. Danton then conspired with a female friend to hire a paid assasin to stop the "MALE ROOMMATE" from exposing Mr. Danton's (Homo?) Sexual secrets.
When all was revealed, it is alleged that Mr. Danton hired the paid assasin, because he was both fearful of exposure, and also terrified that his "MALE ROOMMATE" would leave him for another "MALE FRIEND".
Again, if it is true that Mike Danton was creeping with other Men, there must be some lpsg contributors who can add details to this story.

To clear things up a bit, here is a link to a CBC article on the subject matter.
CBC Article
OK the article doesn't really clear anything up, but I wanted you to know that this is NOT a clear case of a gay relationship gone bad. My take on it is quite different from yours. Based on the fact that his agent, the victim of the plot, stood by him through all this, plus the fact that he was VERY close to Danton ever since he started coaching him back in Danton's early-mid teens (soon after to become his agent as Danton moved up the professional ranks), I believe that Danton was improperly influenced and probably molested by this man (the victim of Dantons murder plot). Danton became dependant upon this man much like many victims of physical and sexual abuse do. When Danton developed his relationship with the Wolfmeyer girl (the acquitted co-consirator), whether sexual or not, the victim of the plot most likely did threaten to expose him. Abusers don't like outside influence over their victims. Danton not being in sound mind after so many years of abuse plotted to have him killed.
I could be totally wrong about this, but this scenario seems to explain all the bizarre circumstances of the case.
P.S. I have no clue about his endowment
