An Unnecessary Death

AN UNNECESSARY DEATH by Dean Bentley

I was hired by the Department of State the same week I took the Civil Service Exam in Washington, DC. I was promoted and blessed with wonderful years working for some great men. And those brilliant men decided I needed to get into Foreign Service, State Department's Diplomatic Corps, as I had the right temperament and abilities. I thought I understood how diplomats were selected; but I had a lot to learn, because that's when I ran into a truly insane diplomat. That evil man actually caused the death of an outstanding employee of the Department of State; and he knew there were two witnesses to the crime. He would stalk our lives for decades. This is that story.
