Man Commits Suicide Hearing Guity Verdict
#1
An ex-Wall Street trader collapsed and died in a Phoenix-area courtroom Thursday, shortly after being found guilty of setting his mansion on fire in a ploy to escape his mortgage debt.

Police are now investigating whether the man, Michael Marin, purposefully killed himself. Shortly after the jury read its verdict and sentenced him to 16 years in prison, Marin appeared to place something in his mouth several times and drink from a bottle he brought with him into the courtroom. Minutes later, he suffered from a seizure and died. Police can't yet confirm whether Marin’s death was a suicide.

Marin’s mansion in a ritzy Phoenix neighborhood caught fire in 2009, the Arizona Republic reports. Marin claimed he had to escape from the house wearing a scuba tank and mask to protect himself from the smoke, but investigators found evidence that he set the fire himself.

Though he had grown accustomed to a lifestyle that reportedly included owning Picasso sketches and $800 climbing boots, Marin’s financial situation grew dire the year before the fire. His bank account balance fell to only $50 from $900,000 even while he had a monthly mortgage payment of more than $17,000, according to the Arizona Republic.

So, if I read this right, the title says that he committed suicide but the police can't confirm if he committed suicide.

Alrighty then. Smiling

I think the police have different standards of proof...i.e. blood samples, etc.
It seems the plantiff put something in his mouth and keeled over.
Who knows, it may have been breath mints. I don't think so, though. Confused

Nothing like a little cyanide as a back up plan to incarceration or an planned execution. Traitors have 30 minutes grace period to do it themselves.

He should have taken the blue pill.

Would have been a better story if he had taken the pill just BEFORE the jury read the verdict.
