This might prove to be interesting:
The son of a US hedge fund founder who was shot dead over the weekend has been charged with his murder, which police describe as a staged suicide.
The body of 70-year-old Thomas Gilbert Snr was found by his wife on Sunday at their New York home with a single bullet wound to the head. His son, Thomas Gilbert Jr, 30, has now been arrested on charges of murder and criminal possession. Police said the two had been arguing over Gilbert Jnr's allowance. Gilbert Jnr visited his parents on Sunday afternoon, and asked his mother to get him some food, according to New York Chief of Detectives Robert Boyce.
'Staged crime scene'
But while out, Detective Boyce said the woman got a "bad feeling" and decided to return. There she found her husband shot in the head with a gun resting on his chest. Police were unconvinced it was suicide, describing it as a "staged crime scene". The younger Gilbert was arrested at his apartment, where officers discovered ammunition matching the gun found at the scene.
Thomas Gilbert Snr founded the hedge fund Wainscott in 2011. It focuses on the biotech and healthcare industries.
May well be nothing in it, just a spoiled kid who wanted his inheritance sooner than later. On the other hand, it is one strange murder. How was he expecting to get away with it? The story doesn't tell us about the gun. Did he fire his own gun and just leave it on pop's chest? Nor is there anything about what exactly made the cops think the scene looked suspicious.
Was the father depressed, maybe in money trouble or because of his relationship with Thomas or for some unknown reason. Why did the missus have a bad feeling and what did she feel bad about?
