Why did they go to all that trouble for a potential suicide? Just like we had it with OJ Simpson. The proper [and cheaper] way to handle either situation would be: "Do it! Do it! Be a man! Do it!"
Uh, yeah, unless it turns out he was clinically depressed. If their brain isn't working right, they should probably be stopped from commiting suicide, if possible. Though the cop shooting the guy he'd come to save is a hair ironic (just a hair mind you, as I'm told this happens surprisingly often)
