My thoughts/guesses about Adam:

1. He will be revealed to have been a negative character; besides, Chief King detested him in earlier cases. If we learn that Adam was an innocent man whose only "crime" was that he knew something about the CO, then Chief King's memory will never be redeemed.

2. His death had certainly something to do with the CO, since Chief King clearly pointed towards that direction in his last words and in his last letter. Therefore, if he had something to do with the CO but he wasn't its  enemy, the only logical conclusion is that he was a member himself.

3. His death wasn't ordered by the CO, because in that case King remains a negative character until his end. Besides, if the CO had ordered King to murder Adam, then the Chief wouldn't have a reason to commit suicide. He killed himself because he knew that he would be exposed as the murderer, not to the Police or the Mayor or the media, but to the CO itself, whose member he had killed. That's why the CO would kill him and Cathy.

4. Adam didn't have a mission assigned by the CO leader that King wanted to prevent; if he had, then his death wouldn't mean anything, since the leader could have assigned to another member the same mission. Maybe he had learnt something and was ready to report to the leader.

5. The Mayor or his mother have nothing to do with the case. Chief King, before his suicide, said that the case "has nothing to do with the mayor". If he wasn't trying to deceive us, I'd say he was speaking the truth.
