Aha! That's why this story has such legs in the media! I always thought it was strange how much attention it got.
I’ve been going under the assumption that he was a CIA-or-whichever-Blob asset, and ended up on the wrong side of the Saudi royal family during MBS’s Year of the Long Knives.
This was my reading too.
