I find it ironic that much of the reason why Arday received such accolades is that he painted himself as a victim who had managed, through grit and determination, to overcome adversity and achieve greatness. But then as soon as he experienced actual adversity - albeit self-inflicted, from being called out on his plagiarism and lies and harassment of those who tried to expose this - he decided to kill himself instead.
Which, I suppose, is the final chapter to his false victim narrative. A posthumous legacy that he was bullied to death, absolved of his misdeeds.

It was deemed "misquoting" and poor scholarly work that should've been caught by his advisor 2. And the university did an investigation and ruled it wasn't plagiarism. Basically, the mom who will always love their ax murderer son.
