Village sleuth unmasks US internet predator behind suicide ‘pacts’ (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article7069144.ece)


I don't know what to say. It's a good thing that woman did something about it.

Oh fuck... this is really insane.
This is especially fucked up:
“I didn’t want to, thinking it was some perverted ploy of his, but after many hours of talking I agreed to watch him die so he would not die alone.”

Hm... I'm still pro-forced-labor. I don't think you'll be thinking about suicides that much.

very sad, bit strange the article that was linked from was the times... but I'm assuming Kléber doesn't regularly read the paper?

why is that strange?



Also, this reminds me of a Criminal Minds episode where the exact same thing pretty much happens.

Well the Times is part of news international- Rupert Murdochs corporation, so tows the Murdoch line. It's a lot more subbtle than Fox News but its part of the same stable so to speak?

Not that I am accusing everyone who reads it of being right wing (as the paper is), it is one of the biggest news sources in the world. I probably should have explained myself better at first.

Sorry a little off topic here.

What does that have to do with Kleber reading newspapers or the article at hand?

Everyone knows I live in concrete bunker for last 10 years and only read socialist newspaper PRAVDA :D

But rly, I heard about this from a friend and tracked the article online. Not a fan of Murdoch :P

It's just a bit scary that this didn't shock me too much.
