murder or suicide?

[kujawski]

If someone with multiple personalities kills himself/herself,

is it considered murder or suicide?

It's probably wrong that I guffawed at this I imagine.

[redcrx]

not really gonna matter as far as a court case goes if the culprit is dead is it?

Suicide but im not sure the law would be involved unless they had killed others aswell!

[squarebear]

Assuming this is a genuine question (which I doubt), it would be suicide as they had killed themselves. The fact that they were mentally disturbed, is neither here or there.
