A 19 year old man named Abraham Biggs used his webcam to broadcast his suicide over the internet.  He overdosed on prescription pills while about 1,300 viewers watched and encouraged him to go through with it.  After taking the pills, he lay on his bed motionless until finally someone watching the incident reached out to 911.  By the time the police arrived, he was already dead. 

I do hope his family can find comfort and strength in each other and know he’s in a better place now.
