Good evening Ron, they say there are never any coincidences in crime. It is a coincidence that Guzman gets a killer disease and so decides to kill himself on the eve of the major mining debacle of the decade. Todays Financial Post says his friends say "he did not appear to be ill," "it hard to believe he would do it," he sure didn't look like..." he was going to kill himself,"he didn't seem to be in bad spirit's. He didn't seem distressed," and he loved people and life and all that. The guy lived a good part of his life in the jungle, had malaria 14 times, this is a tough guy . If he was going to leave a note wouldn't it disclose something about what's been happening about the mine and not his fear of a painful death? He kills himself because of his disease on the eve of the company's collapse is not a believable story. Someone else wrote the suicide note. Guzman would have written about the mine not his health in his final scribbles. A despairing suicide note goes something like, "I'm a liar, a thief and cheat." No beating around the bush when your facing the grim reaper. Not in a crime novel anyway. I'm new to the mining business and the stock market, but not new to trouble.
