The idea of him walking away just to be able to leave his daughter a big chunk of change does not set well with me either.
Possibly, yes he may have done a walk away for something that he may have gone to prison for, but there has been absolutely nothing that has even remotely suggested any type of criminal activity.
For him to have been able to put enough money away to finance his own disappearance and live on for 20 +years, leave funds in the form of a pension, live his life as the DA and appear that he was doing nothing out of the ordinary, he would have had to have started this plan when he first moved to PA.
I guess anything is possible, but then why would he have been so into his work, putting in full time hours while being paid part time and expending so much effort to make the DA a full time position and then building his team from the bottom up to make that office what it was. He could have just gone and worked for another attorney, made a lot more money that no one would even look at as being suspicious, not been in the public eye and would have not been surrounded by so many professionals who are trained to notice behavior that could have accidently “outed” what he was planning.
If he did walk away (and I am not even remotely convinced that is what happened) it would, in my opinion, have to have been something that very recently came about and it was just pure happenstance, and by virtue of how the laws are written regarding pensions, that he would be able to make it so his daughter would get his.
That basically brings us back to the same old question …. What could have happen that was so potentially devastating to RG that he would choose to disappear and never see his family again.
