    Pix11.com (bit.ly/1jK2LMO) reports that the DA will revisit the case of death of 55-year old Howard Frank. Frank was an Orthodox Jewish beggar who also happened to own a multimillion-dollar celebrity photo collection. On June 29, 2012, he was found dead in the Gowanus Canal.

    Frank’s death was originally ruled a suicide by the NYPD, but those who knew Frank, including his estranged brother, Robert, told police Frank wasn’t suicidal. They said Frank feared he would be killed in the two weeks before his death.

    Frank’s collection contained 40 years’ worth of rare, celebrity snaps, ranging from the 1950s through the 1990s. The collection was kept at Stop & Storage in Bensonhurst.

    Sad that Misaskim gets suckered in to pay a rich man’s expenses.
    Sad that Misaskim has to deal with this while I doubt they did anything wrong.
    Sad that people gave money to him for years.
    Sad that ch 11 in their lack of knowledge tried to make it suspicious that a levaya was done quickly.
