This is the best summary I could come up with:
Henry Kissinger, the late secretary of state under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford whose decisions are linked to millions of deaths around the world, died of congestive heart failure, according to police reports newly obtained by Rolling Stone.
According to Greg Grandin, the Yale University historian and author of the 2015 biography Kissinger’s Shadow, Kissinger’s foreign policy decisions under Nixon and Ford led to the premature deaths of an estimated three to four million people around the world, in countries including Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Chile, and Argentina.
Kissinger remained highly active in the months leading up to his death, attending centennial birthday celebrations put on by various elite institutions.
The police report from the day of Kissinger’s death reveals that he died in the presence of an internal medicine doctor, Alphonse Altorelli.
The police report notes that the Connecticut state attorney’s office opted to not open an investigation, “based on the fact that he was in the presence of a doctor, and due to his age.”
It’s unclear how long Kissinger experienced the acute symptoms of congestive heart failure, or if he reflected on the unfathomable death in the wake of his decisions.
