Well that's just plain weird LC; especially the neighbor's accounts. Thanks for posting. Sounds like it was more than your "average" suicide.
Did you see Velveeta's post at #3717? This just gets weirder and weirder. The article she linked had some very detailed analysis, making it almost sound like a very hi-tech "hit." I find it very disturbing that he shares the same name as the judge in the Richard Reid case. I would say that "mistaken identity" is definitely a possibility.
Oh, and I mistakenly left off this link:
NEIGHBORS THOUGHT YOUNG MIGHT HAVE ATTACKED "MIDNIGHT" July 22, 2004
Neighbors of William G. Young yesterday said they suspected Young had been involved the wounding of Midnight the cat, who had both her eyes shot out with a BB gun in April.

...Shortly after Piccillo moved in, he went over to introduce himself to Young. While they chatted briefly, a cat walked over and left a scratch on Young's car. Piccillo recalls Young saying to him: ''Don't worry, we'll take care of the cats.''
When a cat turned up in the neighborhood with its eyes shot out (this) year, Piccillo said, he recalled that conversation. It made him so uneasy, he said, that he refused to let his own son play outside in the cul-de-sac without supervision...

So who knows? A case of mistaken identity or something strange was up with this guy?
