Ugh. I have been putting this one out
just because it made me miserable to know. This is about a kid named
Gabriel Taye that was bullied in school. Unlike a lot of other
stories where a kid is bullied and brings a gun from home to school
and kills folks this 8 year old ended up hanging himself at home. Of
course none of the people that should take any form of
responsibility for this has or will. A couple of days before he
killed himself he was attacked by another student at school. There is
video of this if you wanted to know. This other kid, that should be
in some kinda juvenile center if you ask me, shoved Taye into a wall
knocking him unconscious.
While he was laying on the ground for
about five minutes other kids came by and nudged him, laughed, and
even a school official who was right by him didn't notice him on the
ground. The school didn't tell his mother, Cornelia Reynolds, that he
was attacked of knocked unconscious at school. They just said that he
fainted. The case is reopening because after he had killed himself it
was treated as very open and shut. The county coroner, Lakshmi
Sammarco, requested that the police open this case back up and
implied that it could be a homicide. “There's enough information
here that we would like to reopen the case to look at whether we need
to amend the death certificate. It was very hard for me to believe
that an 8-year-old would even know what it means to commit suicide
and so I asked Cincinnati police to treat this as a homicide until
proven otherwise and investigate it fully.”
