Where did you find it, Marv? Is the theory then that he didn't actually commit suicide?
I don't know. I tried to entertain this theory that Paul was murdered but he possibly was bipolar. Like he wanted to keep his career going but he had self doubt too. I still think he killed himself.
I never heard that he was bipolar. He suffered terribly from sickle cell disease which I know very little about. I don't recall that being mentioned in the presentation.
He did commit suicide.
Reading Otis Williams’s and Peter Jamison’s books show it.
Plus I think I’ve read somewhere - on these books maybe? - that Paul was dying and that the doctors told him the truth about it just days before he was found dead.
Paul was to die anyway within a few months, if not days.
Very sad...
I didn't know he had Sickle Cell! What a talent he was. I'm sure it'd be hard not to feel overlooked in a group with so much of it. I also always thought his star may have suffered because his voice was very similar to Ruffin's but without the edge so I think he was one that had to defer to Ruffin - another tragic hero.
Marv, if you see it again please try and steal a link for us! Thanks!
The circumstances surrounding his death seem more than just a bit odd. He drove over near Motown wearing only his underwear and used a gun in the hand that is not dominant hand [[I think they said he shot himself in the temple using his left hand when he was right handed), etc, etc. People that saw and spoke to him shortly before this all happen said that he was in good spirits, a good mood. That's why all of the speculation cropped up immediately afterwards.
