A cop is strolling down the streets of New York, when he notices something in an alley. He walks over to it to find a man dead, with a gun in his hand and a tape recorder. He picks up the recorder and presses play, and this is what he hears. " I have lost my job and my family. I'm ending my life tonight." Followed directly by a gunshot. The cop then files a homocide instead of a suicide. Why? ----------------------- This is my first riddle so sorry if it's already been posted.

Maybe because people who commit suicide don't generally bother to go out into the alley to shoot themselves.. Nor ::press the stop button on the tape recorder and rewind after they've successfully killed themselves. Of course the tape might have stopped and auto-rewinded after it reach the end..::
