David was the kindest, most good-hearted man I have ever met. He brought fresh flowers into the office every day. The man loved flowers. His whole problem was that he trusted people. He believed in them, and in the end that trust got him into trouble. I do not believe that he killed himself. I think it was a hit job, plaint and simple, to keep him from testifying against the real culprits. It's been four years since he died and I still can't let him go. I think about and miss him all the time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7637960526696603209.post-11989765364123425722012-04-23T04:26:32.659-07:002012-04-23T04:26:32.659-07:00I know all of the attorneys involved in this case....I know all of the attorneys involved in this case. I feel terrible about David and Nancy both. I could have easily been drawn in too, if I had known about it.<br /><br />My office was next to David Amesbury's for a time. I agree that David was a great guy who was always nice and sincere. He made a mistake, but he did not deserve to die or be scorned by others.<br /><br />This is a great black eye for the the Las Vegas legal community.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7637960526696603209.post-70524396884455836492012-04-21T19:48:12.052-07:002012-04-21T19:48:12.052-07:00I worked for David Amesbury, and none of you even ...I worked for David Amesbury, and none of you even know him. He made a horrible mistake, but I can tell you from 3 years of working for him, he is the nicest, big hearted boss, you will ever meet. He made a huge mistake, and I can bet money on it, he got involved with this by being LT. Kims friend, you have no idea how much I saw Ben Kim do that I thought was being a crooked cop, and how David many times would try to avoid him, but Ben would never leave him alone. David would buy his staff breakfast every day, buy flowers, take you out to lunches every week, and birthday parties, infact he has one of the biggest hearts I have ever met, and has been himself used by countless people cause of his big heart. He even helped out a paralegal homeless brother, by giving him a job and place to stay. People make bad, greedy choices, but that doesnt mean they are bad people. It pains me to see a man who was so good to people, story ends like this. ALL THIS MAN DID WAS HELP PEOPLE, AND EVERYONE TURNED THEIR BACK ON HIM.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7637960526696603209.post-73094299599370725012012-04-02T14:29:27.280-07:002012-04-02T14:29:27.280-07:00I worked for David Amesbury many years ago.

Killing him at the time would have been too suspicious, but clearly any seasoned investigator might come to the reasonable conclusion that this was not a random act of violence. In my opinion, David was given a clear message from someone or someones that were not happy with the fact that he was going to testify - I don't think this takes a rocket scientist to figure it out. Amesbury's family & attorney don't think that this was a suicide, and I have to be honest I have to agree with them. At this rate, there won't be any witnesses left to have a trial. I think that the investigators themselves should be investigated because I think it is clearly evident that this is a good old fashioned Las Vegas conspiracy, a conspiracy to keep the truth from ever seeing the light of day!

I guess there could be a ton of other stuff he knew was set to fall too, either that or David's plea deal was not all that great. Probabtion or a few years in club fed have got to be better than being dead. <br /><br />Still and all that makes three likely suicides (note: a comment at the LVRJ story suggests there was a fourth suicide associated with this case)with plenty more high level possibles outstanding.
