In terms of reporting, Kevin makes quite a few mistakes here; he speaks graphically about the nature of the deaths, speaks in language that is known to stigmatize those who have completed suicide attempts, and does not give crisis access information. I’ve done this myself in the many long years I have written and spoken about suicide; and am better educated now.
