A local woman died in a gas fueled house fire. She was found on the couch. It was determined the gas was poured around her body on the couch, and then the fire lit. Yup, ruled suicide and that she poured the gas and laid down. The children had told at school that day that the parents had been fighting and were going to get a divorce.
Crazy story, but believable, in light of some of these other stories about obvious murders being labeled suicides... I believe this one is about saving face for their department. Total CYA.
