After reading Hans Reiser: Once a Linux Visionary, Now Accused of Murder, I’m still unable to make up my mind as to his actual guilt. Reiser hasn’t done much to make himself look innocent, but that would seem to fit with his personality. I’d take a closer look at his former “friend” Sturgeon, if I were investigating this. There’s something wrong about him and I wouldn’t be surprised if he knew more than he’s willing to disclose.
It’s not even clear that his wife is dead, although there are certainly signs pointing in that direction. People have been convicted of murder despite lack of a body, so there’s no guarantee one way or the other once this gets to trial. All in all, this is probably going to make a great “true crime” book someday.
