Why wouldn't they have done that years ago before he had the chance to testify? He testified the previous week, so it's not like this prevented much...

Murder, and by extension getting away with it, costs money and even when it comes to covering up their mistakes corporations will not spend money until after it's absolutely necessary.

You're obviously entitled to your own interpretation of the limited data we have. I just think, given the three articles I've read, it's much more likely to be suicide than murder. However, I do hope they do a thorough investigation. Things I'm interested in knowing are:

who owned the gun and when was it purchased?
does the gunpowder residue in the vehicle indicate that he was alone?
where were the likely suspects at the time?

But at this point, I'm thinking ~80% suicide, 20% murder.
