After only seven months leading the US Navy's Fifth fleet, Vice Admiral Vice Admiral Scott Stearney - who led the American Navy presence in the Middle East from its base in Bahrain - has been found dead in his residence, the Navy announced Saturday evening.
Stearney, a Chicago native and graduate of the University of Notre Dame, assumed control of the fleet from Vice Adm. John C. Aquilino back in May after Aquilino had served in the role for only eight months. He was in his late fifties at the time of his death.
The circumstances surrounding the admiral's death are not yet known. Bahrainian authorities are cooperating in an investigation, according to a statement released by the Navy.
"The Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Bahraini Ministry of Interior are cooperating on the investigation, but at this time no foul play is suspected," said Chief of Naval Operations Admiral John Richardson.
Navy Chief of Operations John Richardson broke the news in a brief video posted to the Navy's twitter account.

He has information that would put the Clinton's in prison.....
Scott requested that in the event of his death no serious investigation be done.That's just the way he was.He believed that death,regardless of how it happened was God's will.
Exactly
Seems to be no information on the Seth Rich investigation either.
Uh oh Chongo! (reference to DANGER ISLAND!)
Funny how anyone who has anything on the Clintons, always end up i an accident or commit "suicide"
Heard it was suicide.
He can request anything, what is actually done should be something else
