Re: Drew Speedie death ruled murder-suicide

It doesn't make sense to me that they would plan a
trip, take photographs, spend the whole week, not
leave a suicide note, then kill his son and take his
own life.

I think it was either an accident or they could have
both been pushed.  There have been several crazy
random murders in national parks over the last few
years.

Drew Speedie death ruled murder-suicide

Wow, this is a real shock. I knew Drew and Brent pretty well, but  
not anywhere near close enough to comment on this ruling. All I can  
do is echo the sentiment of the lead investigator: This is an  
unpleasant thing, Smith said. Regardless of what we think happened,  
it's a tragedy to everyone involved.

I am not sure I mentioned this before, but I had an interview for job at
Mobil Oil when Drew was working on a project there (at the time one of
the largest FoxPro applications ever).  I met Drew and his infant son
(Brent) at a restaurant for the interview.  Drew was a character and it
is hard to believe that this is how they ended their lives.

I never met the guy but as a father of a young boy I dread to think what
brings a man to that point, if indeed it was premeditated.

Like others saidit doesn't matter at this point.  The end is still 
tragic.  On a side note, and not one I care to debate, I wonder if that 
voids a life insurance award?  Some cases void amounts for suicide, iirc.  

SHEEP.  Let's stop this thread now.  Not pleasant by any means.
