Posted: November 26, 2008

Recently, a teen by the name of Abraham Briggs committed suicide over webcam while people watched. By taking large doses of anti-depressants, Briggs ended his own life as, interactively, people talked with him, and, in some cases, encouraged him.

In today's edition of The Loop, Kevin interviews David Sarno, staff writer at the Los Angeles Times and their technology blog, about the specifics of Abraham Briggs' suicide, which was broadcast live via webcam on Justin.tv.
