You know the type. High security, weeks or months of stakeout, sniper three blocks away…

The hitman sorta things I recall from the news are either planned and executed by national intelligence agents or some savage gunning and running from hired brutes, but never the variant with sophistication and private sector.

    You don’t really think jumping from a building is the preferred method of suicide in Russia, do you? ;-)

      The leading cause of death among Russian journalists is suicide by jumping from a building with two gunshot wounds in the back of your skull after eating a bunch of polonium

        Could happen to anyone, really. Super common and not suspicious at all.
