This reminds me of a story about an old man who had a lot of debt that wanted to collect life insurance. He tried getting himself killed going to rough neighborhoods and hurling insults and racial slurs (he was white) but no luck. Finally he got someone to hold a knife against a steering wheel while the man thrust his chest against it, killing himself in return for his ATM and pin.
The man got caught and sent to jail and the insurance paid out, since it technically wasn't a suicide, as the man went to jail.
