Prominent Twin Cities businessman Irwin Jacobs and his wife were found dead Wednesday in their Lake Minnetonka home in an apparent murder-suicide, according to a close friend and business associate.
Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok said officers who responded to the Shoreline Drive home shortly after 8:30 a.m. found the bodies in a bed along with a gun.

I've seen speculation that this may be related to this:

Although it may sometimes seem like it, not everything is pedophilia-related! Another article said both were 77 years old. The missus had been confined to a wheelchair for a year or two and had descended into dementia. No signs of kid-diddling . . .

Although it may sometimes seem like just pervs getting off on kid diddling, human trafficking has a exceptional tax-free reward for those who have the up-front money with which to invest.

Wife had dementia. Instead of shopping around for another model, he took her out and then joined her. $200 million couldn’t save her mind. One theory, anyway, FWIW.

Back in 1990, I met Irwin Jacobs when I was looking at Larson Boats to sell. Nice guy, but I never sold his boats. RIP and prayers to the family.

must have been working on his taxes ... I'd laugh at that, but I spent yesterday afternoon working on mine. I'm not going to shoot myself, but I'm going to need alcohol in mass quantities by the end of the week.

The guy had 5 kids. That’s a low life move... and he didn’t have the excuse of poverty. He could have afforded all the care possible.
Low life.

Yeah, Kraft going for a massage years after his wife died. That’s exactly the same as sailing a .38 through her head./s

It’s a hell of a thing to watch a loved one slowly wither away and die.
