  <body>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Update | 3:49 p.m. &lt;/strong&gt;Robyn Ziegler, spokeswoman for Attorney General Lisa Madigan, said the attorney general&amp;rsquo;s office doesn&amp;rsquo;t have primary jurisdiction over criminal investigations and prosecution: That&amp;rsquo;s left to the Cook County state&amp;rsquo;s attorney.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Randall Samborn, spokesman for the U.S. Attorney&amp;rsquo;s Office, declined to comment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Original post: &lt;/strong&gt;County reporter Alex Parker called me with the following update just minutes ago:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At today's Cook County board meeting, Commissioner Robert Steele raised some doubts over the investigation into former Chicago Public Schools Chairman Michael Scott's death, echoing worries from Scott's family earlier this morning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;There are so many questions the family has about this,&quot; Steele said. They are displeased about &quot;how this is happening and how the medical examiner solved it so quickly.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Scott's family held a press conference at 11 a.m., at the Holy Starlight Church in Chicago's South Side. The family called for a full inquiry into Scott's death by the U.S. attorney in Chicago, Patrick Fitzgerald, and the state's attorney general, Lisa Madigan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Scott, a staple of Chicago politics for three decades, died Monday in a secluded area above the Chicago River.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An initial investigation found that he shot himself in the temple, then fell into the river. But Scott's upbeat attitude and lack of a suicide note has left doubts about whether he killed himself.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</body>
