Look, I know he is dead. Again, I want to make it clear that I am not looking for sympathy for him, only the friends and family of killer.
To respond to your suicide point. Here is a question, and I can't answer this one for this case, but why did the guy kill himself? Was it because he didn't want to go to jail? He didn't want to be on the run from the cops? He said screw it, and pulled the trigger?
Or, did he realize what he did, after awaking from a blind uncontrollable fit, and realize "Oh God what have I done?", and carry out summary judgement on himself?
It is a small point, but an important one. If it is the later (and I don't know), it shows the guy had morals in the end, and a sense of right and wrong at the moment of his death. It shows that he snapped, and what he did was not who he was.
This question will be unpopular (or met with in deference) with the news junkies who didn't know this guy from Tom last week. However, this is something that us friends of these guys hang on to. Does it excuse him in any way, no. Does it mean he should be remembered in any way positively in public? no.
However, there are plenty of these guys who do crimes like this, and make a run for it. They wouldn't dare pay the price for their own actions with their life. They will even do 3 life sentences rather than killing themselves (and yes, I also understand that a human cannot live 3 times).
I dunno if that makes it any better, but I really would like to know this. Why didn't he run if he was such a spineless cowardly horrible monster who lived an evil life? ie: was he deep down an evil person, or a good person who in a moment of weakness did a horrible thing?
(Before you put me on blast for sticking up for the guy, I refer you again to my first paragraph of this post)
