yes it is "so called suicide" and sorry that you do not understand the nuances - plain suicide if some one takes his own life out of desperation or a hearth broken or emotionally unstable person - e.g. my example of the trader or investor that lost it all - he takes his life due his own doing. In this case he well could go back to his loving wife and family in Little Rock no one stopped him doing so! Fact is he had a resignation letter ready - why not submitting it to the Clintons? Pressured influence of powerful people is not easy to cope with and can result in extreme actions.
