THEN he offs HIMSELF?
....fishy.
I don't have all the facts, obviously. But just seems so odd on its face.

Perhaps, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say:
Not when you stand to potentially regain your freedom and millions of bucks, especially if you're still holding out that you didn't do it.
Now had he been convicted of the double-murder on top of the current one, then yeah, I can totally see it.
This? Fishy AF.

Similar to how Nixon knew he would lose any impeachment/indictment because he knew of the evidence the House and Senate had, so he took the quick way and resigned.

If you die during a appeal of a conviction automatically the original conviction becomes null and void which means he never violated the New England Patriots contract thus his daughter is entitled to million's the patriots withheld in bonus and base salary..
