I dont want to answer for others, but personally, No; I dont care if he does die (not sure if there is an update on this particular news, cause I dont care enough to follow it).
If you possibly commit a crime, and then run from the police to avoid it, and YOURSELF jump in freezing water and kill yourself; no, I do not even feel a moment of sadness for you. Thats like telling me to feel sad if a pedophile commits suicide; no thank you! Unless something comes out and says the police was stuck in a 1950s mindset and was picking on him cause of a race issue or something; then that is different. But as it stands right now; I dont care if he has died. No sympathy whatsoever if your a criminal, and you decide to commit suicide or attempt something so stupid that you yourself might die!
There are 1000s of people who starve to death everyday because they decide not to go and rob somebody else or become criminals. They get my sympathy.
Oh, and NO, i DO NOT run from the police, nor would I ever run from the police! Because I know I am innocent and I believe in that whole "law" and "justice" thing we have in Canada. I have no reason to run away.
