One of two jailed suspects in the kidnaping and death of millionaire Stephen B. Small tried to take his own life by slashing his wrist with the jagged edge of a crushed empty soda can, police in Kankakee, Ill., said. Daniel J. Edwards, 30, along with live-in companion Nancy D. Rish, 25, both of Bourbonnais, have been charged in the abduction that led to Small’s death last week. Small, 40, died after being placed in a makeshift coffin with only a small tube to breathe through.
