    Closeted republican? That’s a surprise, all the republicans I know are very vocal about it.

      I think they were saying he was a closeted murderer. Seems reasonable I guess. All things considered.

        They’re trying to lessen the blow by putting a worse term next to murderer

          I suppose Al Capone could be considered and out of the closet murderer. Hiding it would have had less impact.

        Makes sense, that’s not something you’re normally very open about. I think there is a certain stigma surrounding a murderer when they come out of the closet even in today’s enlightened environment.

      If they want to live such a disgusting lifestyle, I guess it’s their right, but they shouldn’t shove it in everyone’s face.

    Police in Indianapolis have identified a 12th body buried on the estate of now-deceased wealthy Republican businessman Herbert Baumeister, a closeted gay man who is believed to have murdered over 20 men and boys that he met in Indianapolis gay bars during the mid-1980s and ’90s.

      A closeted gay man who murdered other queer folk rather than come out?

      The GOP should make him their mascot.

    Sounds like a Republican to me.

    Is he a closeted republican? Or a closeted murderer? Or is he a secretly gay man that murders Republicans?

        I actually saw a news story on this year’s ago. The dude, Baumeister, was so closeted that he would kill the guys he picked up.

        He burned and crushed the victims and the remains have been on a police shelf for 30 years.
