no news for you, american duers - for me it is. just got the news about the autopsy, though the "Det. Justin Clopton did not return calls" to the papers to confirm anything.
but mr kruse, 55, was in good health, both body and nerves.
"Vinson said Kruse was in good health, did not suffer from any mental illness and was not taking psychotropic medications."

a deliberate choice out of despair, facing every minute the BP criminal disaster for what it was in the present and what it would be in the future.

'But he said it's not surprising the oil spill had weighed heavily on his mind, as it has on many local fishermen no longer able to support themselves with deep-sea sport fishing trips for marlin and the like, Vinson said.
(vinson is the Baldwin County coroner)

"All the waters are closed. There's no charter business anymore. You go out on some of the beaches now, with the oil, you can't even get in the water," Vinson said. "It's really crippled the tourism and fishing industry here."'

here's the article, though you already know i suppose.

Gulf oil spill: Boat captain, despondent over spill, commits suicide

William Allen Kruse, 55, a charter boat captain recently hired by BP as a vessel of opportunity out of Gulf Shores, Ala., died Wednesday morning before 7:30 a.m. of a gunshot to the head, likely self-inflicted, authorities said.
...
Kruse, who lived with his family in nearby Foley, Ala., reported to work Wednesday morning as usual at the Gulf Shores Marina on Fort Morgan Road in Gulf Shores, Vinson said. He met up with his two deckhands at his boat, The Rookie. One of the deckhands later told Vinson that Kruse seemed his usual self, sending them to fetch ice while he pulled the boat around to the gas pumps.
