Default Riddle
Quote:
A man was found dead in his study. He was slumped over his desk and a gun was in his hand. There was a cassette recorder on his desk. When the police entered the room and pressed the play button on the tape recorder they heard: "I can't go on. I have nothing to live for." Then there was the sound of a gunshot. How did the detective immediately know that the man had been murdered and it wasn't a suicide?
Don't cheat

Post your answer in a spoiler if you solve it please.

The tape. If it had been suicide then the tape would have carried on recording and it would be at the part when the man says he cannot go on.
