    The news article is incorrect. It was never investigated. Cover up I should know, I’m his sister. I know the truth and lived with it my entire life. I’ve been on the Biz since college. He was my best friend

    Jason…you got that right. Strangled by being entangled in his telephone cord? Sounds like some strangling cause they preferred to not disclose back in the day.

      Craig Hamilton was a fellow student in the broadcast school, LH Bates Vocational-Technical in Tacoma. The circumstances surrounding his death made no sense.
