Terrible. What sort of country do we live in, to allow people to get to the state where their only choice is death?

But she had a new job to go to and had made an arrangement through a debt service to deal with her bills.

A police officer at the inquest said On the day she had received news that some of her debt burdens had been relieved, if she had entered into a payment agreement which she did, and she was supposed to have started a new employment so her financial situation was potentially going to change.

I think this case is more complicated than it looks
