who killed sheriff sims?

Ok, first let me explain... Once you leave the vault you go to mega town, you meet sheriff sims, and then go to moriartys saloon, at the sallon you meet with a well dressed man and he asks you to arm the bomb and blow it up,.. Now you can do two or three things from here... Blow it up, or tell the guy no.. And then tell simms, who will then try to arrrest the man, but the man shoots and kills him [ simms ] or, you can choose to not arm the bomb and not tell simms anything.

I chose the last,.. I told the well dressed man no, and I dident tell simms anything, I disarmed the bomb, and went back to saloon and the well dressed man was gone, told simms I disarmed the bomb and got the house deed.

I then played the game for a bit and was quick jumping back to mega town to store items and rest... I got to level twenty and on one of my many trips to craterside supply... There was sherrif simms on the ramp.. Dead! I asked around and everyone seemed to know he was dead but no answers as to who killed him.
I tried to " check the body " for injuries as you do in family ties " quest but only had the " search " option, [ so natrualy I took everything he had and put his body in the cow pasture by the clinic ].

I looked for moriarty at the saloon because I have a good idea he did it, but he is nowhere to be found. Also I need to know where the old man in the water purifier plant went to, I was giveing him all my scrap metal and getting good karma from it, but now he is gone also. I thought he [ the old man ] had a computer on his desk at the plant and went to check it for info but it is gone, or never existed.

Its not that I can't continue the game because of the death of simms or the disapearance of the old man... It's just that this situation is nagging me.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

Simms - I have no idea. The game is a bit buggy, he may have just died somehow. Maybe he fell off of a ramp and splattered or something.

Water Purifier Plant - This has happened to me. He sometimes just disappears and never returns. He either falls off of one of the platforms of Megaton and falls to his death, or mysteriously disappears.

Computer in Water Plant - This doesn't exist.

Hope I helped.

For the simms thing, he either fell off a ramp and died..or someone started a fight and he lost, talk to his son, it's worth a try...About the Moriarty thing he dissapeared for me too after I did the bomb quest, but I told simms and he got shot by Mr.Burke when he tried to arrest him, I think he just is gone for good for some strange reason
About the old man, I have no idea I never experienced this. Hope this helped

Yes, if you tell Simms about Mr. Burke he gets killed. For me it happened inside Moriarty's, and was followed by me immediately shooting Mr. Burke 6 times in the head.
