MSNBC Legal Analyst Found Dead

Attorney Jay Fahy, who appeared on MSNBC as a legal analyst was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot near his office in Rutherford, New Jersey. 

“Something happened in the last two weeks. But none of us can figure out what it is.”

Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli confirmed Fahy’s death, which he said was “the result of a single gunshot wound to the head, fired with a handgun.”

Two men walking under a railroad trestle near the Castle Billiards Lounge found Fahy’s body around 5 o’clock tonight, barely 1,000 feet from his Route 17 office and down the street from his Ridge Road home, Molinelli said.

“There doesn’t appear to be any evidence of foul play. But with the East Rutherford police, we will try to determine what happened.
