Death Wish - 48 Hours - CBS News Jeffrey Locker said that he could get anything that he wanted as long as he was able to get other what they wanted as well. He went into Harlem knowing full well he would find a pawn to help him commit suicide. He got what he wanted and also knew that when he drove into Harlem, he would find someone that he could talk into this plot as long as he offered them enough money. Mr. Minor happened to be that pawn. Had Mr. Minor been in it only for the money, he could have robbed Mr. Locker and took off. He didn't do that. I also believe that all of the insurance companies should deny his wife's request for payout of the funds. This clearly was a suicide and he made known to his family of his attempt to have himself killed so that his family could collect on these funds. The insurance funds should be used to pay off his ponzi scheme debt.
