Clearly accidental. Was probably researching a story or some such.

It turns out terminal stupidity is NOT a covered event.
Good to know — this lawsuit hasn’t got a chance.

Are we sure Harvey Weinstein or Bill Clinton wasn’t somewhere else at the time?

If it wasn’t suicide sounds like she has a decent case this should have been covered under his accidental death policy. And suicide is covered after 2 years under most policies.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erotic_asphyxiation
I could see an attorney arguing that the guy did not intend to kill himself and it was an accidental death akin to a heroin overdose. The guy was addicted to the rush that apparently happens when someone does this. If the insurance company has covered accidental drug overdoses in the past, they may have a tough time explaining how this is different.
From wiki: Author George Shuman describes the effect as such, “When the brain is deprived of oxygen, it induces a lucid, semi-hallucinogenic state called hypoxia. Combined with orgasm, the rush is said to be no less powerful than cocaine, and highly addictive.”
Baffling to me even more so than shooting heroin or cocaine... bizarro.
