Most likely either he pronounced himself guilty and carried out sentence, or those he hired did so in an effort to cover their involvement.

Hopefully time will tell and all involved in the death of his wife will be brought to justice.

I am amazed those who hire criminals don’t think those same killers could turn on them.

Since he’s black, this will no doubt be portrayed as a racially motivated lynching.

“STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. — A Detroit police sergeant whose wife was shot to death in a suspected contract killing has been found hanged in a suburban park.

Police tell the Detroit Free Press that 38-year-old Sgt. David Cobb was found dead Friday night in Sterling Heights, a city 15 miles north of downtown Detroit.

Cobb’s 47-year-old wife, Rose, was fatally shot Dec. 26 in a parking lot on Detroit’s east side. In April, police arrested 27-year-old Vincent Smothers, who told police Cobb hired him to kill his wife.”

-BOTH WERE PERSONAL FRIENDS OF BILL AND HILLARY CLINTON UNTIL IT WAS DISCOVERED THEY WERE HELPING WITH THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN...”

...just kidding... I think...

I know you intended it as sarcasm, but a friend of mine did commit suicide, shooting himself twice in the head. Of course he used a .22. The first shot didn't do it, so he fired again.
