In this week’s 2-part episode, the UPC team is bringing you more Stalker Questions! Lou asked about live-streamed suicide and the motive behind ending one’s life on public platforms, as well as the ramifications for those who encourage suicide on social media. We touch on some of the legal and social challenges associated with addressing live-streamed suicide, and who should be held responsible. If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, please contact 1-800-273-8255 or text TALK to 741741. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline is a United States-based suicide prevention network of over 160 crisis centers that provides 24/7 service via a toll-free hotline with the number 1-800-273-8255. It is available to anyone in suicidal crisis or emotional distress. You can also find crisis resources available at https://afsp.org/suicide-prevention-resources.
