local boy 20 hangs himself

[Guest guest]

I just heard from one of my co-workers that a 20 year old boy hung

himself two days ago because his girlfriend broke up with him.

Apparently he was dating her and she broke up with him at the begining

of the summer. He was under tx (we all know what that means) for

depression. He sent an email to friend stating " Don't play hang man,

its a killer " , went into the garage and hung himself. Of coure they wil

never blame the med since he was depressed before ging on it.

If the coroner does his/her job and does a toxicology report and the drug is

present then I think that's enough to get an investigation going. Autopsy

reports are public record in the US.

This is something I had never thought about. We did not have an autopsy done on

B.J. - our coroner told us it wasn't necessary as the cause of death was obvious

- fractured neck. Arkansas doesn't have a law requiring one for suicides unless

the cause of death is uncertain. Our lawyers have never asked about it. Do you

think this will be an issue in court?

I checked and it varies from state to state but you might check it out. The

thing you want is IF the medical examiner did a toxicology report. If he did

do those tests then you might find something to help your case.

We had a local journalist hang himself and he was known to be taking Paxil,

we got the report and it didn't show anything we could use but of course we

had to check.

My son was taken directly from our home to the funeral home and then the next

morning directly to the crematorium. No exam other than at our home - and then

only by sight and feel. No tests of any kind, no lab, no xrays, no nothing. I

personally do not want an autopsy performed on me, if at all avoidable, and felt

the same way about my son. But the coroner took the lead and told me it wasn't

necessary. I guess I can haul his butt into court and have him testify to that

fact. We live in a very small community, our son was well-known and much loved

by everyone of all ages and positions and I'm sure that they were trying to

spare my feelings as much as possible. In fact, the coroner had been our

daughter's softball coach for a couple of years and he had helped us raise money

for B.J. and me to travel to Chicago for the National Junior Olympics a few

years earlier. Plus we have a law that says that if someone is to be cremated,

it must be done withing 24-hours or else they have

to be embalmed - something else I abhor. Time will tell, I guess.
