This is a pretty sick story.
A 19-year old told a chat forum of his intentions, and posted a suicide note on another forum before taking a drug overdose and turning on the camera.
Over a thousand people was viewing the feed, and worse, many forum members continued to insult him, believing it was staged.
This one’s up there with the story on pro-suicide web pages.
