Bullied Gay Teen Hangs Himself in Oregon Schoolyard: VIDEO @tlrd
Sad, sad news from Oregon. Towleroad and KOMO News reports:
“Dozens of people came together last week in La Grande in a vigil for Jadin, trying to understand what drove him to despair nine days ago. He came to the playground of Central Elementary School in La Grande. He climbed on a play structure and hanged himself. Someone passing by tried to rescue him. He was brought to Portland and Doernbecher Children’s Hospital where he was put on life support.
Hill says Jadin was pushed to suicide after being bullied in person and on the Internet for being gay.”
