long gone

I believe they have requested media coverage, but were ignored. I know they've been reaching out to the brony community to crowdfund the money needed to cover his medical bills, and his dad's business posted a notice on their corporate website about it.

Fair enough. I don't know much about american media practices, I'm merely suggesting that there may be more to this than meets the eye.

I can understand why he attempted suicide. Kids of his age probably wouldn't know any better. Of course, this begs the question, if it were at school why didn't the staff know of this? Or why didn't his parents know until they caught him trying to take his own life? Was he too afraid to say anything?
