I checked on the French site that Wayne Madsen quoted (see my previous post for that and other suspicious factoids in this case), and found some more tidbits.

Question autour d'un décès au Département d'Etat
My French is quite rusty, so with a Google assist at translating:
[John Kokal] was one of the most active civil servants in the denunciation of false evidence on the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. [He participated in] the analysis of the information on Iraq before and during the American intervention, [and helped the neocons] to exaggerate...the threat...
The investigation of [the] police force indicates that [he] could have been thrown [from] the roof of the State Department.
Geopolitique.com does not give any sources for its information, and I don't know anything about the site. But this is definitely not what the (scant) American sources reported. They simply dismissed the incident, saying police were certain it was a suicide (although his wife was waiting in the parking garage to pick him up, he had no clearing for access to the roof, there were no windows for him to jump from, and he was not wearing his shoes), and saying that, while he handled classified documents, he was not involved with analysis.
To be continued.
