Oh right.. he killed him.

One of the reasons we have murder trials is to try and determine these things. You don't get to commit homicide and later tell people it doesn't need to be investigated.. after all you are a reporter so... just believe me.

My guess is.. he was getting older and really wanted to sodomize as many young men as possible. Get high and slutty in the gay clubs or whatever the scene.
This guy was holding him back.
Sure.. he was getting almost saint-like glorious status from 'helping his dying lover' and got a lot out of that,
but,
All that back patting, high status, praises was also why he could not do other guys.
He wanted his partner dead.
Collect on it.
Get it over with.
Then get to those drug parties and reckless sex.

Maybe?
Cops have these 'instincts' right off the top. a 'hunch'. the gut feeling.

Hope your not on the jury then - talk about preconceptions!
