An elderly Manhattan diamond merchant with business and health problems shot and killed his 78-year-old wife in their bed yesterday, and then fatally shot himself in the chest, according to investigators. Police found the couple in their Fresh Meadows home after co-workers at Green Bros. Jewelers reported that Morris Green, 76, hadn't showed up at his Fifth Avenue office. The jeweler's business had been hit hard by the economic downturn, and he faced crushing medical bills after a recent heart surgery. But at least one person who knew Green refused to believe it was suicide.
A maintenance man in the jeweler's building told the Post, "No! There was no way he could ever be involved with something like that. He’s a wonderful man. Always joking and always laughing." But another associate says, "Money was running out." Autopsies will be performed to confirm the murder-suicide determination, but investigators are not searching for any suspects, the Daily News reports. Police believe Green used his licensed .38 caliber handgun to kill Charlotte, his wife of more than thirty years, before ending his own life.

Crushing medical bills? But I thought the insurance companies were our pals? I don't get it.
They'd lived in the house for over 30 years, they'd been married more than 50. Tragic. RIP, Mr. and Mrs. Green.
I have no sympathy for a blood diamond dealer.
not sure he'll require your sympathy now, but keep putting out those positive vibrations champ.
I give out 'positive vibrations' to people who deserve 'positive vibrations.'
this is getting to kinky for me.
Blood and diamonds and vibrations, oh my!
I hope the sympathy is as outpouring for you in your time of need. No one is two-dimensional, and you don't know that they dealt in "blood diamonds". This was a righteous man who was troubled beyond the single paragraph of explanation offered. You're a pig and so filled with self-importance I suspect you must be terribly, terribly lonely. I pity you.
Mid forties marriage? Could there have been drama with an ex wife/husband?
The article is incorrect. They were married for more than 50 years.
crushing medical bills from a routine heart surgery?
he's 78, he had medicare.
how much are the insurance companies milking him for?
He must be a victim of the US government's medicare Death Panels.
Just dont pay the medical bills or tell them I could only afford to pay like $100 a month or something.
At that age who cares about your credit history anyway?
at that age, who cares about medical bills.
maybe it was suicide/suicide, not murder/suicide
the guilt of selling blood diamonds was too great.
after all we now only sell certified conflict free diamonds.
id like to buy some certified blood diamonds at a lower price, but no such thing exists.
get it.
