God bless you. You are a compassionate person. Follow your heart and do what you think your boss would have done if the situation was reversed and he was in your shoes.

Obviously we don't know the details but that would have been the straw on the camels back for me.

One of the best scenes in that movie was when Batman bashed his head on the table. It would've been better if he'd done enough to give him a concussion.

Vigilante justice seems like the best option.

So you witness a murder and didn’t say anything about it?
Good learning lesson. Always do the right thing and be honest in all your affairs or the guilt will eat you up.
Seems like you have tried to clear your side of the street by telling the police. That’s all you can do in life. Clear your side of the street. The outcome doesn’t always turn out how we think it should, but you have to accept it. If you can learn to do those two things and be ok with it then you will master life.
I would start by praying for his son. Another great way to get out of your head is be a servant to others. Go help someone next weekend, can be volunteer work or helping a buddy with a project. That always helps me stay out of my head.

Unfortumnately, unless there is other corroberating evidence, it is your word against his and you will be considered the bitter ex employee. It is difficult to say but maybe it is best to remember that he will get his reward eventually when his time comes.

I recommend some grief counseling. You need to get through the grief of your boss and also deal with your individual role. There are lots of mental health professionals that will provide great help. We often avoid help from mental health professionals for reasons that we should not anymore. It will help a lot if you can find one you trust.

Thank you. I’ve had a lot happen in my life and it’s just made me more kind. I cannot stand seeing someone else hurting. That’s what I’m trying to do. The day after my dog died was one of the hardest days of my life and he talked with me and tried to make me feel better. He’s the best boss I’ve ever had. I would come into work early just so we could talk alone for 30 minutes. It felt like home. I hate that fricking bastard so much. I hope it eats at him every day and keeps him awake the way it has me.

Holy shite. That is the most traumatic work story I’ve ever heard. As a young professional i was mentored by outstanding other professionals and have had long term friendships with them even after I stopped working with them. I can’t imagine what it would have been like if something like this had happened.
My only suggestion is to meet with a therapist and consider antidepressants. It isn’t your fault but holy hell, if that doesn’t justify a few sessions with a therapist, nothing does.

Personally if it were me I’d go talk to my pastor at my church. If you’re not in a good church find one. It’s good for your mind and Jesus heals. Be there every Sunday for 6 weeks straight. Trust me it’ll help you and your mind immensely.
Next I’d skip the cops and go talk to the sheriff in your parish. The head man. Call and tell him or his staff you need to speak with him directly on what you feel may or may not be a crime. Tell them you reported it already and felt like it was dismissed.

Resentment is like you drinking poison and hoping he dies. He will continue to eat you until you forgive him, don’t do it for him do it for yourself. Pray for his health, happiness, and prosperity for two weeks and see where you are mentally then.
Trust me, as a child who was abused I held onto it for a long time and it almost killed me. Once I forgave that man, my life started changing for the better.
Best of luck. Praying for you.

Jesus Christ, why do so many people think the TD is the proper place to go for emotional support? Go to a bar or a therapist.

I’m sorry to hear you’re dealing with all this. Sounds like your boss was a fantastic guy. I can somewhat relate, I worked for a guy the last few years who was always very good to me and treated me like family, and his own son was a complete POS. Sounds like the cops are a dead end. Maybe if your boss had any other family members who you could talk to you could explore that. Other than that there’s not much more you can do other than talking to a minister or priest or counselor for the grief. Hope things work out for you man.

Bisexual Weekly really likes to invest in their young interns, I see.

Well, the OT did find a poster's drug addicted brother who had been missing in L.A. for weeks, so it seems like a pretty good place to start.

You don’t understand how scared I was they’d do something do me or my family. He is unhinged and on drugs. He worked for the DOD. He didn’t pass until a few days ago.
