This was taken at Pennsylvania State Treasurer R. Budd Dwyer’s final press conference in 1986. He had been convicted of corruption and took his life in front of the media before officers could remove him from office. He offed himself not out of guilt, but by the act of taking his life even before he could be fired, he ensured that the dependents he’d leave behind would get his state pension.
