victorjets Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 WOW. I never heard any reference to this. People want to forget about it or they just don't care? What's the story behind it? If you don't know what I am talking about, DON'T watch it! It's quite disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowmoe57 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Just another corrupt politicial who took the easy way out instead of going to prison. I remember when it happened the pictures in the Daily News were crazy -- they actually had one still picture during impact -- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiFtheOracle Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I found out about this in a really weird surf video. I thought it was in a movie or something until later in life I found out it was real. Coward escaping prison. He definitely chose and interesting way to do it. I mean, the speech he gives before he does it is just weird... referencing God and how he was blessed to have this great wife and kids...so you repay them by blowing your brains out on a televised press conference? Some ****ed up people in this world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon63 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 In all seriousness though, it kinds of sickens me that the video didn't even shock me at all. So many movies, so much violence, it just seems like another movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirlancemehlot Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 the song "Hey Man Nice Shot" by filter was based on this. Dwyer's family tried to sue to have the song banned but were unsuccessful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOJOTOWNSELL Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 i did a lil research on the subject and he killed himself while he was still in office so his family would get full benefits/pension.....if he waited to do it until he quit or was removed they wouldnt get said benefits.

You have to wonder if he thought that they'd rather have him, alive, than have the benefits. It seems at first glance like an altruistic motive but I think it was selfish. Riding out the legal battle and staying alive for your family requires far more courage than what he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe his family hated him and was happy to get the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
