The man who gunned down veteran lawman Clint  Greenwood took his own life - with the same type of gun - just 24 hours after the killing, Baytown police announced Monday.

William Francis Kenny, 64, shot himself in the head about 8 a.m. last Tuesday near Houston's Ben Taub Hospital, Baytown Police Lt. Steve Dorris told reporters Monday.

Kenny had filed a complaint with the Harris County Sheriff's Office over what he told the judge in his divorce case was a "police cover-up" of a dispute between him, his ex-wife and his ex-wife's father.

Greenwood, as head of the sheriff's internal affairs division, eventually made a decision not to pursue the case, sources said.

In a March 18, 2012, letter to the judge in his divorce case, Kenny wrote that his former father-in-law reported to authorities that Kenny had threatened to kill him. Kenny, however, denied that and claimed deputies instead wrote the incident up as a domestic dispute.

In the letter, Kenny called for an investigation that he said would show "that a police cover-up occurred and a criminal is going unpunished."

Kenny created a website that included Greenwood among a long list of criminal justice officials he blamed for failing to investigate his case. The website accuses Greenwood - and more than a dozen other officials - of protecting law enforcement officers.

Greenwood was gunned down April 3 as he arrived for work at the Harris County courthouse annex in Baytown....
