<p>Abraham Briggs (A.K.A. CandyJunkie) committed suicide by drug overdose live on Justin.TV yesterday. What follows is the forum post that outlines the chain of events:</p>
<blockquote><p>- CandyJunkie creates thread telling Misc. he&#8217;ll overdose himself again on drugs live on Justin.tv<br />
- CandyJunkie posts the amount of drugs he&#8217;s going to take<br />
- Mods don&#8217;t take it seriously because of his past trolling<br />
- People egg him on<br />
- CandyJunkie posts a copied suicide note<br />
- People keep egging him on<br />
- He pops the pills and goes to sleep<br />
- He breathes for a few hours, people think he&#8217;s going to be alright and keep joking and trash talking on his JTV log.<br />
- Some time later many people realize he was not moving.<br />
- I find his personal details through E-detectivery, I figure out his name and number and location.<br />
- Personal details posted on Misc. I request people to call the cops because I live in India and had no way to make International calls all by myself.<br />
- People tell me he&#8217;s a troll and nobody calls. Staberella especially is quite a huge cynic and says that he wasn&#8217;t going to die on that kind of drugs, she insists nothing is going to happen and that people should just gtfo of the thread.<br />
- I send an email to Miami Police on their official email on their website, Email not functioning!<br />
- I call Miami Police from my dad&#8217;s phone and speak to at least three cops and one person from the 911 line (whatever it is) for over 8 minutes about the situation, the people there do not take the case seriously and tell me to call the sheriff of his county, and give me the sheriff&#8217;s number even after I told them I was speaking from a different country and that this was an emergency.<br />
- I post the sheriff&#8217;s number on the Misc. thread<br />
- People tell me to quit worrying and that they&#8217;re 100% sure its a loop and he&#8217;s just fraudin&#8217;<br />
-jjlee138 (Rep this dude) calls the Broward County Sheriff&#8217;s office and speaks to them about the situation along with a couple of other people. By the time I called, it turns out 3 people had already called them about it.<br />
- People wait for the cops to bust in on the JTV cam.<br />
- Some people start thinking nobody called the cops, at least 5 more people call the cops, they were told the cops were on it<br />
- 25 minutes after the first call to the cops, the cops bust in. They cover the webcam<br />
- People speculating whether he&#8217;s dead or not<br />
- At this point of time a lot of people start deleting/editing their posts everywhere. PM me for the original thread content.<br />
- Friends post messages on his myspace worried about him, no response from him.<br />
- His best friend posts a thread on the Misc. and informs the people that he&#8217;s dead.<br />
- Some people still think its a bluff</p></blockquote>
<p>If you&#8217;re a parent, get to know what your kids are feeling.  Don&#8217;t let this happen to yours.</p>
