Whether this theory has already been dismissed or not, I couldn't say. Another theory that has been examined is that the murders were intended to cause a drop in Johnson and Jonson (whoops) stock, which would be taken advantage of by short-selling the stock or options. Apparantly this theory has been checked and abandoned.
