When Saul was killed by an Amalekite David had the perpetrator killed.

The evolution of Saul's attitude toward David ... as so clearly interpreted in the book on the subject by Rabbi Dr. David Novak ... is the gripping picture of the descent of a tormented soul into his own internal paranoid hell.

And then, seemingly the next day, Saul was ready to kill his son, because of Jonathan's friendship with David. No, the thought of David taking over the reign as king of Israel drove Saul to insanity.
