It sucks that he was going through this and it sucks that he died. Despite my sympathy for him and his family none of that excuses him from the laws of man or nature. He suffered a likely outcome from his decisions and his family is now left with that burden. I do not celebrate any of that but at the same time I am personally unable to excuse it. I feel sorry for his family.
