WI: Ricky Ray Rector's suicide attempt succeeded

When Ricky Ray Rector was surrounded by the police, he shot his own head in an attempt to commit suicide. Rector survived, but lost his frontal lobe and was then tried and executed, which Clinton used in his Presidential campaign. What if the suicide attempt succeeded and Rector died before the police could put him in handcuffs? What would Clinton have done during his campaign without rector around?

I think in retrospect it was entirely unnecessary to execute a mentally incompetent man even if he committed murder. That's not what won Clinton the election so if that option isn't on the table he doesn't need to worry about killing some other criminal to prove how tough he is on crime.
