There certainly are assassins. I recommend spending some time on liveleak. You'll get a healthy appreciation for civil society, and see some things you wish you'd never seen. I remember someone in some sort of law enforcement position in some other country. The security camera footage showed two assassins come in with AKs and mow everyone in the room. The security guard standing by the door tried to run out behind them, but he was shot too. One assassin accidentally shot the other, but not fatally. He limped out. The target's wife was with him, and they both died. I think the novelty of it is that this sort of thing, to us, only happens in foreign countries, not the mighty united states. Articles such as this one cast doubt on that theory.

My comment is about the lack of hard evidence, not the existence of assassins. While half the internet works themselves into an orgasmic frenzy of conspiracy theories, it's still possible the person in question killed himself, got lost in the woods, took a road trip without telling anyone, fell down the side of a mountain while hiking, overdosed on heroin, got in a fistfight while drunk...

  Or David Galed-himself to "prove" that the banks hire assassins when someone speaks against them...

  That goes against Occam's Razor. Whistleblower of a powerful bank mafia goes missing, simplest explanation: killed.

    Most exciting explanation that confirms your biases isn’t necessarily the most likely explanation.

      Exciting? If anything this is depressing. How people throw around the word "conspiracy" in an attempt to sound smart and disregard(or even dissuade to consider) the most plausible explanation. Bias? Whistleblower of a mafia goes missing and your first thought is that he commited suicide? Please, you lack intellectual honesty.

    That goes against Occam's Razor. I wish I knew if that were true. Our world is complex and it's unclear how to calculate the odds of someone in his position killing himself, accidentally falling off a cliff, or being murdered. Maybe someone assassinated him, maybe he had a heart attack. There are plenty of plausible scenarios.

      His car was found abandoned with the engine running. He was murdered.
