I met a crime scene investigator once and he said any time media shows up to the scene of a death and he says “suicide” they just leave because it’s not newsworthy unless it’s something public like this. Even then, people kill themselves in parks all the time and it doesn’t make the news.

What’s sad is some people will leave notes about how they want the media to report on their suicide, he said. But their suicide at home isn’t newsworthy. Just shows how irrational people often are when they do it.
