I absolutely believe that, but the submitter's text as written doesn't actually indicate that the manager, Fred, died from work. It might just as easily be mega-violent food poisoning; a random cancer picked up because of, say, no particular reason that anybody could find; or even an early heart attack that Fred got because it runs in his family.

My job has already had two people (one a VP) die from heart attacks. I actually quit for 13 months because a manager put me on an insane death march project, and I said I was not going to be the third to die from work-related stress. I later returned after that manager left, and I have been enjoying it again ever since.
