One suicide is tragic. Two is suspicious. Three means something is going on.

Didn’t one of Hoggy’s classmates that did not get invited to Harvard commit suicide yesterday? What’s up with these suicides?

It’s not uncommon for one successful suicide to encourage others.

Because liberals are sick people, and feel the need to follow whatever the latest trend is.

Just like transgenderism.

More than 6 years after the fact, it’s hard to confirm that the murder of his child was the direct event that led to his suicide, though I’m sure it didn’t help his overall mental health picture.

That could be.

I have 4 kids. They are grown now. The thought of one of them when he or she was 6 was gunned down along with their classmates by a sick crazed person would have caused an emotional strain that would have been HELL to deal with.

I can appreciate what you’re driving at, but for the record the report says it is an apparent suicide.

Maybe it was and maybe it wasn’t. We’ll probablnever really know.

Still, I can only imagine the non-stop anguish from losing a 6 year old.

May God have mercy on his soul.

One is a tragedy.

Two is a coincidence.

Three is enemy action.

These things tend to come in 3’s. Let’s hope that’s the last one.

“There are two main types of suicide clusters. A mass cluster involves suicides that cluster in time – irrespective of geography – and are often associated with the influence that media reports may have, such as suicides by celebrities. Point clusters involve suicides that are close in time and/or space. They often occur within institutional settings such as hospitals, prisons, or schools, or within distinct communities.” https://www.suicideinfo.ca/resource/suicidecontagion/

Survivors of school shootings are a double whammy because they contain both elements of media influence and as a distinct community (of survivors).

Did he have something to do with Sandy Hook?

Could it be the Deep State rubbing out people who know too much? One can only speculate.

Could be severe case of TDS and the summary of the Mueller report was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

If Avielle was their only child, I could see the despair building up over time. All it might take for some is a trigger to finally end their own life. Maybe he found out he had some health issue that was going to greatly affect the remainder of his life. Who knows.
