yea no he was straight tortured. no man would do all that to his back and to his genitals for "suicide", more like "torture and murder" the hesitation wounds is torture wounds of someone wanting to hurt him but not kill him yet.

Wow! Season 1 is probably the best podcast series I've ever heard. I listen to podcasts for an average of 10 hrs a day through my work day and must say your work is incredible. Looking forward to starting season 2 tomorrow. Keep up the great work!

Season one is excellent and season two is shaping up to be even better. These are both very well researched and narrated stories. I would definitely recommend both seasons to anyone one who enjoyed Serial, In The Dark, or other such podcats.
