There was one involving someone jumping off the 27/441 bridge near Paradise Park and traffic having to swerve or something like that. Melinda Duckett's suicide and a few others.
It's not just a suicide, it's suicide AFTER murdering someone. Is it sad? Maybe, but if it was their choice, then so be it. If one was in terrible uncontrollable terminal illness pain, they might have made the decision together and it was their choice to make. Of course, we don't know that yet, hopefully if it was their choice they left a note.
