[edit] Murdered?

The article is allocated to "Murdered politicians" category, but it doesn't make it clear whether the man was murdered or not. --Mal 12:20, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

In all likelihood, Adams didn't murder him in the traditional sense but he did probably withhold treatment (he did this in other cases - plus, Adams wasn't just a serial killer - he was also a Plymouth Brethren fundamentalist who would automatically have had a grudge against such a high-ranking Mason (though the duke wouldn't have realised this)). If that counts, then the category can be put back. See pages 97-101 of 'Stranger in Blood' - Cullen, 2007. Malick78 17:49, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
