Closure?

Closure is a media developed mental condition derived from an absence of doubt.

there is no such condition

The SILENCE regarding anything coming out of the investigation is deafening!

So they still haven’t gotten the word that they were caught up in the middle of a CIA gun running operation gone bad?

Dr. Jekyll / Mr. Hyde.
Rich guy presents a laudable front, dabbles in secret evil, gets bored, decides to end all in spectacular fashion.
The banality of evil is not satisfying to victims.

Correct. They want closure?

How about accepting the fact a seriously mentally ill man killed their loved ones. Then move on.

With all due respect, you KNOW this because you were a part of the operation?

That’s life. There are always unanswered questions, and closure is a myth spawned by the grief industry. Here’s everything they need to know: they survived, enjoy every sandwich.

Some were lucky enough to have been warned of the pending slaughter in advance. I've never seen this before:

If the case is effectively closed (because allegedly one man, now deceased, committed the crime), then why isn’t all the evidence gathered (to include the casino video tapes) made public?

All such evidence is public property, and the public has a right to see all of it.

You never saw a three-L lllama."

"It was an old, withered man, who had served the Government in the days of the Mutiny as a native officer in a newly raised cavalry regiment. The Government had given him a good holding in the village, and though the demands of his sons, now grey-bearded officers on their own account, had impoverished him, he was still a person of consequence. English officials — Deputy Commissioners even — turned aside from the main road to visit him, and on those occasions he dressed himself in the uniform of ancient days, and stood up like a ramrod."

If the FBI/DOJ is involved there is nothing.

Are you assuming this or did the autopsy/medical history confirm it?

And even if he were mentally ill, the suspect would still have a motive, even if it was falsely perceived.
