He committed suicide over $30,000? Life is cheap.
What’s worse is that he risked his freedom over $30,000.00. That’s incomprehensible to me.
I think he “committed suicide” like Vince foster “committed suicide.”
It's not just $30,000. A conviction would have meant the loss of his military retirement pay and benefits. Now that he is dead, his wife will keep his survivor benefit plan retirement pay and all the other military retirement benefits that go to widows.
Just maybe he felt so guilty about thar possibility, he committed suicide for the benefit of his family.
My guess is that this guy was set up. Once he took the first paycheck for the “no show” job he was screwed. There must’ve been some bad crap in AF procurement that needed to be scraped off on an unsuspecting new-hire. As soon as he realized what had happened, and had no chips to call in, he snapped.
