Dec 6

This morning, we learned that Thompson has been secretly separated from his wife for several years and they live in different homes. There have been threats made against Thompson in the recent past. He was busted for DUI several years ago. His salary and bonus were $10 million last year. All of this information is just 24 hours.

There is more to this story and it's going to be messy, I think.
