Hollywood journalist Allison Hope Weiner has an update on the Ronni Chasen
murder case and emails Deadline the following details:

"A police source close to the investigation into the murder of Ronni Chasen says
that police have a fairly good idea as to who employed a Hollywood hit man to
shoot the longtime publicist. Although the alleged hit man killed himself last
night before police could take him into custody, authorities are still making
progress in their investigation of Chasen's murder. Several sources confirm
that police have a working theory that Chasen's murder was related to a business
deal gone bad."

First Police Action In Ronni Chasen Murder Results In Another Death:

As a detective said last night if the probe into popular publicist Ronni
Chasen's slaying was concluded after last night's suicide of the person of
interest: "It's not over yet." Police served a search warrant on a man at the
Harvey Apartments in a
seedy part of Los Angeles at 5640 Santa Monica Boulevard
between N Wilton and Western Ave near Hollywood. [UPDATE: The Beverly Hills
Courier just reported he's been identified as Harold Smith.] He'd been under
police surveillance in connection with the case and fatally shot himself after 6
PM with his handgun own just as the police were approaching in the lobby. He
died of a "self-inflicted" gunshot and was pronounced dead at the scene. Chasen,
64, was reportedly shot five times in the chest in the early morning hours of
November 16th as she was driving her late model Mercedes Benz west on Sunset
Blvd towards her Westwood condo after attending a premiere and party for the
Screen Gems film Burlesque. Her shocking death hit Hollywood hard because so
many liked Chasen, a petite and hardworking PR-woman who specialized in Oscar
campaigns.

I said way back there's no way it was a "drive by", as first
suggested.
The "gangstas" who do drive by shootings so rarely hit their
targets that few people actually targeted have died as a result of
them.
On the other hand, the security cameras where she was shot
through her car door were reportedly off at the time of the shooting,
which means a set up.
Even if that had not been the case, for someone to shoot her
numerous times, accurately, through a car door in low light is well
beyond the ability of the "spray and pray" gangstas.

shoot the longtime publicist. Although the alleged hit man killed himself last
