Erhalten Sie an mit es, besagtes Nettopublikum, wie Mann auf webcam sich hing
Samstag, den 24. März 2007
Kevin Whitrick meldete zu einem Internet-Schwätzchenraum an und verkündete, daß er im Begriff war, Selbstmord festzulegen. Er dann schielt sein webcam ein, stand auf einem Stuhl, zertrümmert durch seine Decke, um einen Balken herauszustellen, gebunden einem Seil um seinen Ansatz und gehangen.
Einige Besucher zum Aufstellungsort dachten, daß es ein Hokuspokus war und ihn an egged, aber man wählte 999. Bis Polizei in seiner Wohnung ankam, war er tot. Der Fall wird geglaubt, um der erste seiner Art in Großbritannien zu sein. Freunde des 42 Einjahreselektroingenieurs sagten, daß er einsam und seit dem Aufspalten von seiner Frau niedergedrückt geworden war und hatten schwer trinken begonnen. Er hatte auch ernste Verletzungen in einem Autounfall letztes Jahr erlitten und war am Verlust seines Vaters distraught, der an einem Herzangriff gestorben war. Herr Whitrick wird geglaubt, einen Schwätzchenraum, Kels freundliches Schwätzchen, bei paltalk.com aufgestellt zu haben und wurde mit ungefähr 50 anderen Benutzern zu angemeldet? Beleidigung? Schwätzchenraum wo Leute? haben Sie gehen an einander?. Besucher zum Aufstellungsort sagten, daß sie dachten, daß er scherzte, als er ihnen seines Selbstmordplanes erklärte. Ein gesagt: ? Er band ein Seil um einen freilegten Decke Balken und stand auf dem Stuhl, während er das Seil um seinen Ansatz band. Einige von uns Plaudernraum Benutzer, sprechend mit Kevin über dem Textschwätzchen, -mikrophonen und -bildschirm, versucht, um ihn zu überzeugen zu stoppen, aber -anderen egged ihn an und baten ihn, mit ihm an zu erhalten. ? Wir gerade couldn? t glauben, daß er es tat? es war surreal. Ein Geschnatter gesagt? F *** ing tun es, erhalten an mit ihm, erhalten es ringsum Ihren Ansatz. Für f ***? s Grund, kann er? t tun sogar dies richtig.? ? Ein anderer Besucher zum Aufstellungsort, der nicht besagt genannt werden möchte: ? Als Kevin weg vom Stuhl trat und das Baumeln gelassen wurde, fing die Stimmung im geänderten Schwätzchenraum und in den Leuten verwirklicht an, was sie gesehen hatten. Ich denke, daß jemand mit der Polizei in Verbindung trat, aber traurig niemand an ihn in der Zeit gelangen konnten.? Moderators then closed the feed from his webcam. Mr Whitrick lived alone in a small flat on an estate in Wellington, near Telford, Shropshire. His former wife, Paula, and their 12-year-old twins live in less than a mile away. Police said that an internet surfer alerted them to the suicide on late Wednesday. Officers broke into Mr Whitrick?s flat but, despite attempts to revive him, he was declared dead just after 11.15pm. There were tributes to him in the chat room yesterday under the heading ?RIP Kevin?. One, from icemaiden 71, said: ?I?m a mate of his and I?m shocked.? But another posting said: ?I?m on the phone to the News of the World. I?m going to make a buck on this.? Mr Whitrick?s former wife said in a statement: ?Kevin was a loving father and family man. He was the life and soul of the party and an extremely considerate and kind person. He will be so sadly missed by us all. ?Unfortunately Kevin had a serious car accident in 2006 and he never fully recovered.? Mr Whitrick was the brother of Mal Whitrick, an associate director and sponsor of Shrewsbury Town Football Club. They worked together at the family firm, RMW electrical services. Mal Whitrick was understood to be returning from holiday in India yesterday. Sharon Atwal, who works in a corner shop opposite Mr Whitrick?s flat, described him as ?subdued? when she saw him on the night he died. She said: ?Every night he?d take eight cans of Boddingtons bitter from the fridge and restock it with the cans from the shelf. He always seemed quite cheerful. On Wednesday night, though, he didn?t seem himself and it was the first night that he did not restock the fridge. It was as if he knew he wouldn?t be coming back. ?He always struck me as very happy. He was friendly and had two perfect kids. I cannot believe he has done this.? Police said that they were investigating. A postmortem examination was carried out yesterday. The case appears to echo that of Brandon Vedas, 21, from Phoenix, Arizona, who committed suicide online in 2003 by overdosing on a mix of alcohol and prescription medication. Some people in the chat room egged him on while others tried desperately to find his address. Paltalk is the world?s largest online video chat community with more than four million members visiting chat rooms that allow them to see, hear and text each other.
