Didn't he (accidentally) kill himself?

Edit:

Turing died on 7 June 1954, 16 days before his 42nd birthday, from cyanide poisoning. An inquest determined his death as a suicide, but it has been noted that the known evidence is also consistent with accidental poisoning.

As you looked it up and quoted Wikipedia, I am wondering if you are trying to express a thought or ask a question.

Yeah, I just read "persecuted" as "executed"
