        I actually thought he did it so the family wouldnt lose anything. Since he never resigned wouldnt the family also have received benefits from his death. Maybe im wrong, but I felt like I read that a while back.

          This happens in the developing world on occasion, with the assumption is that insurance pays out to the family. I’m 99% sure doing the deed yourself means it doesn’t pay out at all. Tragic all the way down.
