Fascinating story. What would happen if his family filed an Illinois Work Comp case? There would be a battle to prove suicide versus killed in the line of duty. The injured or deceased worker has the burden of proof.

Sad situation. Very tough case. In Illinois you must prove the work conditions contributed to the death. Difficult to do with these facts. Probably would have the same result in Illinois.
