Suicidist

A professional killer whose specialty is staging hits to look as though the victim killed him/herself. Suicidists usually have science backgrounds in addition to experience in covert operations. They are consummate professionals and their services are not readily available. Aside from the occasional incongruence between a victim's life circumstances and the "suicide", nothing ever can be found to suggest anything other than an actual suicide. A "suicide victim" found with three bullets in the back of the head is not the work of a suicidist.

The former congressional aide committed apparently committed suicide shortly after receiving a subpoena to appear before a Grand Jury. Some thought his demise was actually the work of a suicidist.
