At least 'I' didn't call anyone's opinion here 'bullshit' :)

That's the beauty of it, when you are inclusive rather than exclusive, sometimes in all the nutty things you find a gem (not to say that my comments were gems, just speaking in general about public discourse).

I am sorry if I have offended people here with my questions/comments, that was certainly not my intention. I do understand that this forum is not for me since there are such restrictions on free speech. In my world there are no 'stupid questions' and I myself would not demean anyone by calling...

It is called free speech, which includes raising sometimes unpopular opinions or uncomfortable questions just for the sake of a democratic debate - which is one of the initial purposes of online forums on the Internet. The aim is not to demean anyone. On the contrary, I respect all opinions here.

I didn't spell out the word 'ask' for sure, but we are here to discuss and by definition raise questions aren't we? I guess I don't understand the concept of this online form, sorry.

Yes let's see what the final report says. I'm always a little baffled at people/family members asking for money on the Net to cover the funeral costs of a relative. I mean, we are all mortals, it's not like it's an unexpected surprise, aren't we supposed to have funds saved for that purpose...

I was just responding to a question about it. And I myself genuinely did not understand the use of 'apparent' in the report. I didn't see any harm in asking the community here about it. So I guess we are not allowed to raise questions about this case in this forum.

Then I guess you see no merit in having an open democratic discussion with diverse opinions in an online forum :)

Everybody on the Net is responding as if it's certain that he committed suicide, yet if it's 'apparent', then nothing is confirmed, and we essentially don't know anything about what happened to him.

If he was not ready to defend himself, then this self-sabotage is very sad...

I don't know the exact procedures, but I reckon they do take time. In any case I can't wait for the confirmation of the actual facts of his death. And I would rather keep an open, questioning/skeptical mind than swallow everything that's in the media/on the Net uncritically. Anyway, time will...

I'm not an expert on funeral costs or legal fees either, but I thought that as an elite figure skater, he was not exactly in need either...

I actually have some doubts about this whole suicide story, it wouldn't be the first faked death/suicide story in the media.

And why would a man who knows he is innocent commit suicide? If wrongly accused, you get mad and fight for justice. Unless he had some severe mental issues (that would explain the suicide), that would be a more logical response. All this seems very fishy to me...

Anyone wondering about reports of his 'apparent' suicide? When will that be investigated? When will the results be released? And this Gofundme campaign for his funeral, whose target sum has already been raised? There is more to it that meets the eye imo...
