My kid showed me that article on the patch. Don’t stress, it’s not going to impact your property values. People commit suicide, it happens, regardless of socio econimic status or neighborhood. Luckily, newspapers don’t write stories about it unless its someone famous or involves a public spectacle or snarls traffic. The internet news sources don’t have the same editorial staff to squash those articles. That article you linked is the only mention of it in cyberspace, as it should be. We don’t know why she did it and we don’t need to.

[quote=pri_dk]TG is right. Suicides occur everywhere.

If there is no evidence of foul play, then it is a private matter and newspapers should have the decency to treat it that way.[/quote]

Pri: Unfortunately, in today’s tabloid culture, the press and decency have parted company. Prurient interest sells copy. Remember, “if it bleeds, it leads”.
