This is almost impossible for a 17 year old to do. A person would passout before killing themselves Justice wanted Aug 2012 #1

It sounds like it, but it's not unusual. That happens a lot - "I got caught, life over." HopeHoops Aug 2012 #6

That's not a serious crime. Most such cases are suspended sentences with probation. That's not a good reason for suicide.

I don't know about his previous record, if he had one, but usually the juvenile courts will take things into consideration and just breaking in to steal booze or something (no weapons reported) will get you probation. It's just sad. And no, I don't think the cops killed him. I just think they left him alone too long.
