Damage Control

"We are deeply saddened by this tragic event," J.J. Faraday said to the crowded room of reporters.  "John Marin was a man of exceptional character, loved by his family and friends, and was an invaluable asset to this administration.  My deepest condolences go out to his mother, his brother, and his girlfriend of seven year.  Mr. Marin will be greatly missed.  Thank you."

Faraday left the podium, walked off the platform and hugged Roselyn, mother of the recently deceased, and Michelle, the girlfriend of 7 year.  After sharing a moment with them, he quickly made an exit outside to his awaiting car.
