He is the reason some people wants the US to be a bit more like Russia. Yeah, no, this wasn't a suicide, this was to stop the case that he himself had embarked on a long-running legal action on and that he had been in Charleston for legal interviews for. This stops the case in its tracks.

Please don't reply if you are just going to spam "BuT sUiCiDe". If that's false, he's just another casualty of Boeing. If that's true, he's just another casualty of Boeing.
Funny how he takes his own life in an hotel car park, and no one hears it. Let me guess, he also happened to buy the gun and get the gun permit the same day ... His anxiety never manifested as suicidal tendencies, and if anything, taking action had decreased it.
Or, this is the reason why the USA already is like Russia... "Suicide by 3 shots in the back then jumped out of the window" kind of scenarios.
Some parts of the USA already are, but in pockets. The USA is definitely an oligarchy at this point, but still not a complete autocracy, and there's still a reasonable amount of trust that an actual investigation will be taking place regarding the circumstances of his death, which means not being able to hire just any sort of hitman for these stints.
