That was nice of him to do a suicide without having the cops do it for him.
A lot less paperwork involved. Don’t cops get immediately put on admin leave when they shoot someone? This time the cops don’t have to have the stress of killing someone on their minds.

Im reminded of the fate of a heckler in a Dragon magazine short story about Eubeenhad, the hobbit.
The heckler fell out of an upper story window four times and was deemed accident prone by the hobbit hed heckled.
