Dead or on the lamb?

I bet the Cook wasn't in on it or showed some doubt which might be why they were the only crew member to die. 

Then we have the other possible target is this was a paid off assassination, Jonathan Bloomer of Morgan Stanley fame. Could there be more there?

For now, I think that this was a way to get Lynch out of the picture given that his co-defendant was killed right before this sinking.
