Billy Mays found dead in his Tampa home

If you ever needed proof that the world is an unjust place, here’s a bit for you.

Billy Mays, the marketing genius/pitchman behind Oxyclean, MightyPutty and a number of other direct-sell products is dead. He was found this morning in his Westchase home by his wife.

There were no signs of a break-in, and investigators do not suspect foul play. The coroner’s office expects to have an autopsy done by Monday afternoon.

Mays’ wife, Deborah Mays, says the family doesn’t expect to make any public statements and asked for privacy. Mays was also featured on the reality TV show “Pitchmen” on the Discovery Channel, which followed Mays and Anthony Sullivan in their marketing jobs.

The injustice? Vince “Sham Wow” Offer/Shlomi still lives.
