A six year old's suicide? What the fuck has become of us?

BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. (AP) — Police in Minnesota have closed their investigation of a 6-year-old girl’s hanging death by ruling out foul play, and said the evidence points to an accident or suicide.

Kendrea Johnson was found unconscious in a bedroom of her foster home in Brooklyn Park with a jump rope around her neck Dec. 27. There were no witnesses in the room.

“All of the evidence leads back to either suicide or accidental,” Deputy Chief Mark Bruley said. “The reality is she was in the room by herself and we’ll probably never know the answer to that.”

Bruley said Kendrea had been getting treatment for emotional problems including suicidal thoughts. Child protection workers put the girl in foster care in December 2013 after her mother allegedly abused drugs. She had been at that particular home since March.

I don't think the 6-year-old mind is going to conceive of suicide, let alone actually do it, on its own.

It was either an accident, or somebody put the idea in this kid's head.

Some people have bad wiring, some of them kids. Coupled with the emotional trauma this girl likely experienced, it's not a stretch to see how she might have wanted to harm herself. It's especially sad to think of her making the decision to end her life yet being too young to fully appreciate the weight of her decision.

Pretty much this-fucked up situation from the get -go. Shame the parents couldn't give a shit beyond their drug-fueled lives. Hope they feel real bad and take a hint from their daughter.
