Remember that according to the FBI more than half of murderers know their victims personally, and about a quarter are family relations.
I think the police really need to drop this whole "assassination" false flag and investigate the more probable angles. Could be that he was closeted and killed by a jilted lover, or the husband of the secretary he was banging, or a hitman hired by the estranged wife. No sense in harassing every man with a green jacket over this.
It looked too amateurish to be a hit, although I suppose it could have been a budget hitman.
From a movie hitman perspective sure. Real life "hits" don't look like they do in the movies though. You can find videos of truly amateurish hits online easily. The most violent cities in US see them happen often. Whomever this person did this was calm, seemed disciplined, got the job done. On a scale from drive by to James Bond, I'd put him solidly in the middle.
