- Mods don't take it seriously because of his past trolling
- People egg him on
- CandyJunkie posts a copied suicide note
- People keep egging him on
- He pops the pills and goes to sleep
- He breathes for a few hours, people think he's going to be alright and keep joking and trash talking on his JTV log.
- Some time later many people realize he was not moving.
- I find his personal details through E-detectivery, I figure out his name and number and location.
- Personal details posted on Misc. I request people to call the cops because I live in India and had no way to make International calls all by myself.
- People tell me he's a troll and nobody calls. Staberella especially is quite a huge cynic and says that he wasn't going to die on that kind of drugs, she insists nothing is going to happen and that people should just gtfo of the thread.
- I send an email to Miami Police on their official email on their website, Email not functioning!
- I call Miami Police from my dad's phone and speak to at least three cops and one person from the 911 line (whatever it is) for over 8 minutes about the situation, the people there do not take the case seriously and tell me to call the sheriff of his county, and give me the sheriff's number even after I told them I was speaking from a different country and that this was an emergency.
- I post the sheriff's number on the Misc. thread
- People tell me to quit worrying and that they're 100% sure its a loop and he's just fraudin'
-calls the Broward County Sheriff's office and speaks to them about the situation along with a couple of other people. By the time I called, it turns out 3 people had already called them about it.
- People wait for the cops to bust in on the JTV cam.
- Some people start thinking nobody called the cops, at least 5 more people call the cops, they were told the cops were on it
- 25 minutes after the first call to the cops, the cops bust in. They cover the webcam
- People speculating whether he's dead or not
- Friends post messages on his myspace worried about him, no response from him.
- His best friend posts a thread on the Misc. and informs the people that he's dead.
- Some people still think its a bluff
RIP Abraham Biggs. |

Poor guy had issues! :(
People are jerks egging him on to take his life, I know they will use the excuse "we thought he was joking"
Remember: what we say affects others whether or not we realize it. |

But still, you have to consider that he aired all of this in a public forum he was VERY familiar with. It's not like he stumbled into a chatroom and caught flak from a bunch of strangers. This was a forum he was registered on, and posted on regularly; not to mention the fact that he was set up on a webcam feed. He wanted to die, he wanted an audience... he got both. It saddens me that people immediately blame the forum for this kids stupid, selfish actions. Thats like having a guy jump of a crowded bridge in broad daylight and blaming everyone sitting in their cars for not doing anything to save him. :rolleyes:
My condolences to the family of course. |

It's a personal choice, but there's at least a very strong argument against encouraging people to do it. |
