It has nothing to do with murder and everything to do with suicide. The family is arguing that CTE caused or contributed to his suicide.

If he wasn't put in jail with a lifetime sentence would he still have committed suicide?

Maybe. Maybe not. There's no was to know his thoughts leading up to the suicide.

For a civil case you don't have to prove it, you just have to be able to convince a jury that it's probably true.
