Since both the accuser and accused are deceased now I really don’t want to pass judgment on Evan Chandler. HIS SUICIDE AS WELL AS ITS TIMING ACTUALLY TELLS IT ALL.
No one will ever convince me that he committed suicide due to his pains only – his money could have bought him all the painkillers in the world. What looks more probable to me is that while Michael was alive Evan Chandler felt he still had a theoretical possibility to make amends for all the wrongs done to the man. But with Michael suddenly gone this chance was lost and this could have made things unbearable for Evan, especially since he knew that Michael’s ruined life was ultimately his doing.
Why rule out a possibility of him having some remorse?
Why not give Evan the benefit of this decent doubt?
After all Judah couldn’t live either with all that burden on his conscience even despite the 30 silvers and a field he had bought for the money?
I hear that Ray Chandler didn’t attend his brother’s funeral. So he wasn’t at one with his deceased brother any longer? Another small point in favor of my supposition…
P.S. A short note on the power of Evan Chandler’s emotions:
In 2006, Jordan Chandler sued his father for life threatening physical abuse. According to court documents filed in New Jersey: “The judge found that plaintiff had proved that he and his father, the defendant, were members of the same household when defendant struck him on the head from behind with a twelve and one-half pound weight and then sprayed his eyes with mace or pepper spray and tried to choke him. The judge also found that the weight could cause serious bodily injury or death”.
