Well, let me explain.

Brian Peterson blinked into the phone. Then responded, “Well, there was a notation of possible suicide on the autopsy report and I wanted to find out if it was a suicide or not?” “Not to be disrespectful, but what difference should that make to you?” Becky responded. Brian paused thinking of the appropriate answer. “I’m sorry, I certainly didn’t want to cause you any hurt, but if it was a suicide, then we might have to look into whether a fraud assessment was appropriate.” Brian anwered as gingerly as possible and hoping to get off the phone as soon as possible. “Wouldn’t she have to have killed herself, solely to try and save taxes for it to be fraud?” Becky asked. “I mean what if she was depressed and just killed herself, would that be tax fraud?” Brian thought for a second and answered, “no, it wouldn’t and that’s why I asked about a note.”
