Ah, this one is a classic.
Let's begin!
ORIGIN
Gleb Korablev, an 18 year old student from Moscow, killed himself 4 years ago, after an altercation with his girlfriend. Gleb was part of a Russian roleplaying group, and he was also a fencer.
The stream was hosted on VK, where Gleb pointed a Saiga - 12 shotgun to his head, and pressed the trigger, after shouting "Nya, Poka!", Similarly to the Russian teenager Rina Palenkova, which commited suicide by train.
His death was quickly shared online, most notably on YouTube and Twitter, after the now deleted YouTube channel "GORE" posted his suicide, 2 days after the original stream. (October 19, 2019).
The video quickly gained over 150 thousand views, and YouTube was late to respond, taking 3 days to remove the video off of their platform.
This case was most notable for the "curse" associated with it, that would happen to the viewer after watching the video, if they did not comment the date in which they watched said video.
An alleged friend of Gleb says that the issue with his girlfriend was not the reason, rather that Gleb had heart problems and he would be dying in 2 weeks, so he made it quick.
VIRAL SPREAD
The original video was 2-3 hours long, specifically 2 hours, 51 minutes, and 40 seconds. The broadcast kept going until the police came to investigate, approximately 2 and a half hours later. Unfortunately, the original video is possibly lost media, as the only version that exists online today, is the 17 second clip of his death.
Along with the YouTube video, many users on Twitter would mask the video by putting innocent screenshots before his suicide, in an attempt to fool and scare users.
The video was also reported to be shown in YouTube's autoplay, which startled viewers.
Twitter users frantically posted about the video, warning eachother not to watch it.
The video was allegedly named "1444" to avoid YouTube detection bots and remain obscure.
THE CURSE
After the video was uploaded, an urban legend was created about it. According to internet users, the video is cursed, and the only way to break the curse is by commenting the date of the video. A reddit user claimed that Korablev planned it beforehand, and allegedly cursed the video.
This was mainly covered by Spanish speaking outlets and memes about the curse may have originated in Mexico, despite the video being recorded in Russia.
USER RESPONSE
The search term "Video 1444" had a massive spike in late October and early December, despite the video being posted in mid-October. Users on the social media platform Twitter urged all other browsers of the site to avoid the video.
AFTERMATH
Gleb's VK account remains online, under the username "kgb2001".
Many of Gleb's colleagues remain online on VK, but I do not encourage you to go messaging them about their beloved friend's death.

LINK TO THE MAP HERE: https://u.osmfr.org/m/1027433/
Anyways, me, @sog, @Slavo, and @water have been working on a map. A map, of DEATH!
Here's the gist: each flair gets its own symbol and color. The pin indicates where the video took place. The square pins are the general location (usually the street/neighborhood), the upside-down droplets are exact.
To search for a specific video without panning through the map, all you need to know is either the country or date in which it happened (date is more specific, so go with that if you can). On the left-hand side is an icon that looks like three square tiles, click it and then hit "Browse data" to enter search. Just type in the country name or the month + year when it happened, and you'll be able to quickly find your video. To get the coordinates, zoom in as much as you can and center your screen on the video you want. They'll be in the URL.
Hitting the three square tile icon also allows you to filter by category. Just hit the eye next to whichever categories you don't want to see to filter them out.
For each video, we've selected the highest-quality post out there to represent it. This means no retarded, unnecessary watermarks or blurry footage! We also added thumbnails, but I think if a lot of you access the site at once, it overloads the system and they won't display. So they might be broken for the next day or two. Sorry about that!
Some notable spots with a very high density of videos include Ecuador, Poland, Trinidad & Tobago, NYC, and Chicago. And not only did I post a dashcam for every Russian territory, we geolocated them all as well.
NOTE: There's no "child warning" in any titles. If they're underage, we usually state the age in the title, but not always. Also no "+ aftermath", "multiple POVs", etc.
FAQ:
Q: Can you add [video] to the map?
A: If you've already geolocated it, yes! Otherwise, only if one of us feels like it.
Q: Can I help out?
A: If you're at least semi-active on this site and you're actually interested in this, yes! We obviously vet who gets let in but that's the basic requirements.
Q: Why do this?
A: We have severe autism. Not even memeing here, just the truth. It also allows us to collect the highest-quality versions of videos in one easily-accessible place, but mostly autism.
To close out, here's where a few famous videos took place!

Context: This video depicts a grave incident that occurred on August 15, 2019.
It happened at the Lion's Gate to the al-Aqsa mosque compound in Jerusalem's Old City. Video shows the moment when two Palestinian boys attempted to stab paramilitary Border Police officers, which led to Israeli forces opening fire.
One of the attackers, 14-year-old Nassim Abu Rumi, was fatally shot, while the other, Hamoudeh al-Sheikh, was critically injured. Videos from the scene show the officers shooting the attackers and later the medics treating the wounded officer, with the boys on the ground.
This is my first upload, please tell me if I messed something up. I searched for the video based on the names of the perpetrators, but I couldn't find it.

That's right, this miserable shithole is now two years old.
Happy birthday!
Your gift is my return to the helm, now with less patience for you than ever before. Watching janny chatter about the proliferation of wannabe shooters and child predators has been infuriating and I intend to put a stop to it. Leave now or there will be consequences, this is your only warning. This is neither hyperbolic nor a bit and it won't end well for you; the ability to provide this very unhappy ending was a prerequisite of my return.
Two years ago today, WPD did not exist. The world was a better place for its absence.
One year ago, WPD did exist. It existed for one year despite tech companies' best efforts to the contrary. It only had 269,000 users. The world was worse off than it was prior, but things were going to get much worse.
Today, WPD still exists. WPD has existed for two years. WPD is one busy day off of having 2,000,000 users. Things have never been worse.
--
At this rate, WPD will have around 20,000,000 users in 2025, 200,000,000 in 2026, 2,000,000,000 in 2027, and by 2028 it will have considerably more users than there are people on Earth. It must be stopped, and I look forward to doing my level best to make it stop in the coming year.
Some other miscellaneous and less insane statistics, written by the beloved @G-tix:
33.000 videos have been uploaded a year ago. About 155k videos have been uploaded now. That's an increase of 470%!
We went from 485k comments to over 2.4 million comments.
We've given over 10 million upvotes in the past year. We almost gave 2 million downvotes.
We have about 61k active, registered users per week.
These are just registered users, of course. If we go by logged out, total traffic, things get much more horrifying: Last week alone, WPD served 893,000 unique users who viewed a total of 5,710,000 pages. This does not track plays of videos directly from the thread list. We have no means of doing that.
But don't listen to me, listen to Cloudflare:
Yeah, even though we keep adding servers, load time is in the shitter and getting worse. This is becoming ever more costly to host. I hope to resolve that soon with your help.
Some highlights from the past year here:
Terrorists slaughtered and raped their way through the Israeli citizenry and somehow turned every Western midwit into raging antisemites.
The war in the Slavlands really started to heat up:
Anyway that's all, please enjoy the confetti, the celebratory new logo, and the X8 COIN MODIFIER for the next 3 days. You read that correctly: each vote that you receive on any thread or comment, up or down, will give you +8 coins. for the duration of WPD's birthday weekend ✨
Happy birthday you degenerate freaks
I love you.
xoxo Clitpeeler 💋

INFORMATION
The victim met with an acquaintance from high school at a McDonald's on New Year's Eve, and on January 3 was found by a police officer to appear to be suffering from numerous injuries while being led by one of the perpetrators on a sidewalk.
Four young individuals, Jordan Hill, 18;
Tesfaye Cooper, 18; Brittany Covington, 18; and Tanishia Covington, 24, are facing charges of criminal hate crime, aggravated kidnapping, and other serious offenses for allegedly subjecting a restrained and gagged man to torture and physical assault in Chicago, which they live-streamed on Facebook.
These suspects were formally charged on Thursday prior to an afternoon bond hearing. The charges also encompass aggravated unlawful confinement and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesperson for the Chicago Police, stated on Thursday morning via Twitter that authorities were still investigating this "senseless attack." The assailants, who are of African descent, were heard hurling anti-Caucasian slurs at various intervals during the 30-minute video.
The victim, an unidentified 18-year-old with reported mental health issues, attended the same school as Hill and had been in his company willingly since Saturday, according to the police. They noted that the two were acquainted, so the victim's family, residing in the Chicago suburbs, only reported him missing late on Monday.
During a press briefing on Thursday, the victim's relatives expressed that he was coping as well as could be expected given the circumstances. However, they were relieved that he was back home and extended gratitude to the local law enforcement.
"We are grateful for the support from everyone," stated David Boyd, the victim's brother-in-law, representing the family.
"This incident should never have occurred," he concluded at the conclusion of the media briefing.
Authorities disclosed that an altercation between Hill and the victim escalated, allegedly exacerbated by the two female suspects, who are siblings. In total, it is estimated that the victim was restrained for four to five hours on Tuesday. Law enforcement does not suspect premeditation in this incident.
As per the police, the suspects' attention to the victim's mental capacity and their racial remarks contributed to the hate crime charges.
The victim was deeply traumatized by the violence and eventually spoke to the police after being found wandering disoriented and distressed on a Chicago street on Tuesday night. He required hospitalization, according to officials.
HOW THEY KIDNAPPED HIM
On December 31, 2016, the victim, an 18-year-old male with mental disabilities, was left by his parents at a McDonald's in suburban Streamwood, Illinois, where he intended to rendezvous with Jordan Hill, one of the perpetrators. The victim was acquainted with Hill prior to the incident, having attended the same school in Aurora, Illinois, and considering him a friend. On January 2, 2017, the victim's parents reported him missing.
As per police reports, Hill had appropriated a van, which he presented as his own when he picked up the victim on December 31. Hill had the victim sleep in the van while he spent three nights socializing with friends on the West Side of Chicago. On January 3, Hill and Tesfaye Cooper transported the victim to the apartment of sisters Brittany and Tanishia Covington, where the four individuals bound and subjected the victim to hours of torture.

If you more image and video, comment on this post
The Uvalde school shooting was a mass shooting that occurred on May 24, 2022, at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, United States, when 18-year-old Salvador Ramos, a former student at the school, fatally shot 19 students and two teachers, while 17 others were injured but survived. After shooting and severely wounding his grandmother at their home earlier that day, Ramos drove to and entered the school, remaining in an adjoining classroom for more than an hour before members of the United States Border Patrol Tactical Unit fatally shot him after he had bypassed numerous local and state officers who had been in the school's hallways for over an hour.
Location: Robb Elementary School, 715 Old Carrizo Road Uvalde, Texas, U.S.
Date: May 24, 2022; 20 months ago 11:28 a.m. – 12:50 p.m. (UTC−05:00)
Target: Students and staff at Robb Elementary School
Attack type: Mass shooting, mass murder, school shooting, pedicide, shootout
Weapons: Daniel Defense DDM4 V7
Deaths: 22 (including the perpetrator)
Injured: 18 (including the perpetrator's grandmother at her home)
Perpetrator: Salvador Rolando Ramos
Motive: Unknown
Convictions: 15-year old convicted of failing to report planned crimes
Police officers waited more than 1 hour and 14 minutes on-site before breaching the classroom to engage the shooter. Police also cordoned off the school grounds, resulting in violent conflicts between police and civilians, including parents, who were attempting to enter the school to rescue children. As a consequence, law enforcement officials in Uvalde have been heavily criticized for their response to the shooting, and their conduct is being reviewed in separate investigations by the Texas Ranger Division and the United States Department of Justice. Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) officials laid much of the responsibility for the police response on Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Department (UCISD PD) Chief Pedro Arredondo, who they identified as the incident commander. Arredondo disputed the characterization of his role as incident commander, but was later fired by the Uvalde school board for his actions during the shooting. A report conducted by the Texas House of Representatives Investigative Committee attributed the fault more widely to "systemic failures and egregious poor decision making" by many authorities. The report said, "At Robb Elementary, law enforcement responders failed to adhere to their active shooter training, and they failed to prioritize saving the lives of innocent victims over their own safety... there was an unacceptably long period of time before officers breached the classroom, neutralized the attacker, and began rescue efforts."
Shortly after the shooting, local and state officials gave inaccurate reports of the timeline of events and exaggerated police actions. The Texas Department of Public Safety acknowledged that it was an error for law enforcement to delay an assault on Ramos' position in the student-filled classrooms, attributing this to the school district police chief's assessment of the situation as one with a "barricaded subject" instead of an "active shooter". Law enforcement was also aware there were injured individuals in the school before they made their entrance.
Following the shooting, which occurred 10 days after the 2022 Buffalo shooting, wider discussions ensued about American gun culture and violence, gridlock in politics, and law enforcement's failure to halt or intervene during the attack. Around a month after the shooting, Congress passed the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and President Joe Biden signed the bill into law; it was the most significant federal gun reform legislation since the Federal Assault Weapons Ban of 1994.
Following the shooting, Robb Elementary was closed. The district plans to demolish the building and build a replacement.
Background
Robb Elementary School in 2015
Uvalde is a Hispanic-majority city of about 15,000 people in the South Texas region; it is located about 60 miles (97 km) east of the United States–Mexico border and about 85 miles (137 km) west of San Antonio. In 2022, about 90% of Robb Elementary School's 600 students in the second through fourth grades were Hispanic, and about 81% of the student population came from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. On the day of the shooting, there had been an awards ceremony at the school.
School security preparations
The city of Uvalde spent 40% of its municipal budget on its police department in the 2019–2020 fiscal year, and UCISD, the school district operating Robb Elementary School, had multiple security measures in place at the time of the shooting. The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Police Department (UCISD PD) had a six-officer police department responsible for security at the district's eight schools. It had also more than doubled its expenditures on security measures in the four years preceding the shooting, and in 2021, it expanded its police force from four officers to six officers. The state of Texas had given UCISD a $69,141 grant to improve security measures as part of a $100 million statewide allocation made after the 2018 Santa Fe High School shooting, in which ten people were slain.The district also had a security staff that patrolled door entrances and parking lots at secondary school campuses. Since 2020, Pedro "Pete" Arredondo had served as UCISD's police chief.
The school and school district had extensive security measures in place. The school used Social Sentinel, a software service that monitored the social media accounts of students and other Uvalde-affiliated people to identify threats made against students or staff. The district's written security plan noted the use of the Raptor Visitor Management System in schools to scan visitor identity documents and check them against watch-lists, as well as the use of two-way radios, fence enclosures around campus, school threat-assessment teams, and a policy of locking the doors of classrooms. According to a report released by the Texas House of Representatives on July 17, although the official school policy was for exterior and interior doors to remain locked, staff members would often unlock or open doors due to a lack of keys. Additionally, some employees were desensitized to the intruder alert system, as it was almost always used for incidents of an undocumented migrant in the area running from police.
A screenshot of a message on the school website about the massacre, sent to parents and telling them what to do
UCISD held joint security training exercises in August 2020 along with the Uvalde Police Department, the Uvalde County Sheriff's Department, and other local law enforcement agencies. UCISD also hosted an active shooter scenario training exercise in March 2022, which covered a range of topics, such as solo responses to active shooters, first aid and evacuation, and scenarios enacted through role-playing. The exercise also covered the ability to compare and contrast an active shooter situation versus a barricaded subject or hostage crisis where an armed person isolates themselves with limited to no ability to harm others. The March 2022 training materials for UCISD said, "Time is the number-one enemy during active shooter response ... The best hope that innocent victims have is that officers immediately move into action to isolate, distract or neutralize the threat, even if that means one officer acting alone." The materials also put forth the position that a "first responder unwilling to place the lives of the innocent above their own safety should consider another career field".

Uvalde Memorial Hospital's CEO reported that eleven children and three other people were admitted for emergency care following the shooting. Four were released, and two, described only as a male and a female, were dead upon arrival. Four other victims, the perpetrator's grandmother and three students, were taken to the University Hospital in San Antonio.
Perpetrator
Born on May 16, 2004, in Fargo, North Dakota, Salvador Rolando Ramos was a resident of Uvalde from an early age and was a former student at Uvalde High School. He also attended Robb Elementary School for fourth grade in the same classroom where he was killed. He was frequently bullied at school due to his stutter, short haircut, and limited wardrobe, because his family was unable to afford more. At one point another student tied his shoelaces together, causing him to fall face down. Lt. Chris Olivarez from Texas DPS claimed that Ramos had no friends. Furthermore, he did not have a criminal record or any documented mental health issues. However, he had searched the term "sociopath" and received an email about possible treatment.[8] He had also previously posted violent threats online. School officials at Uvalde High School withdrew him from the school on October 28, 2021, due to his frequent absences.
Ramos' social media acquaintances said he openly abused and killed animals such as cats and would livestream the abuse on Yubo. Other social media acquaintances said that he would also livestream himself on Yubo threatening to kidnap and rape girls who used the app, as well as threatening to commit a school shooting. Ramos' account was reported to Yubo, but no action was taken. Up until a month before the shooting, Ramos worked at a local Wendy's and had been employed there for at least a year. According to the store's night manager, he went out of his way to keep to himself. One of his coworkers said he was occasionally rude to his female coworkers, to whom he sent inappropriate text messages, and would intimidate coworkers at his job by asking them, "Do you know who I am?" Ramos' coworkers referred to him by names including "school shooter" because he had long hair and frequently wore black clothing.
A year before the shooting, Ramos started posting pictures to his Instagram account of semi-automatic rifles that were on his wish list. According to a friend of his, he would often drive around at night with another friend, shooting at strangers with a BB gun and egging cars. According to a man who was in a relationship with Ramos' mother, Ramos moved out of his mother's house and into his grandparents' house two months before the shooting, after an argument broke out between him and his mother over her turning off the Wi-Fi. People close to Ramos' family described his mother as a drug user and said he frequently argued with her. Two months prior to the shooting, he posted a video of himself on Instagram aggressively arguing with his mother and referring to her as a "bitch". Ramos' mother described her son as "not a monster" but admitted that he could "be aggressive". His grandfather said that his grandson did not have a driver's license and did not know how to drive.According to his father, Ramos had a girlfriend, who lived in San Antonio. On May 14, Ramos sent a private Instagram message reading, "10 more days". A person responded, "Are you going to shoot up a school or something?" He replied, "No, stop asking dumb questions. You'll see."
According to the Texas Department of Public Safety, in September 2021, Ramos asked his older sister to buy him a gun, but she refused. On May 17, 2022, a day after his 18th birthday, he legally purchased a Smith & Wesson semi automatic rifle from a local gun store. He then purchased another rifle three days later. Investigators later found that his gun had a "hellfire" trigger device, which decreases the time required for the trigger to reset, increasing the possible rate of fire. Ramos sent an Instagram message to an acquaintance he met through Yubo, which showed the receipt for an AR-15 style rifle purchased from Georgia-based online retailer Daniel Defense eight days before the shooting. He posted a picture of two rifles on his Instagram account three days before the shooting.
Ahead of the shooting, Ramos had purchased 1,657 total rounds of ammunition, which included 375 rounds of 5.56 NATO ammunition purchased on May 18, 2022. A total of 315 rounds were found inside the school, consisting of 142 spent cartridges and 173 live rounds. Additionally, a total of 922 rounds were found on school property outside the building, consisting of 22 spent cartridges and 900 live rounds. Overall, Ramos fired 164 rounds during the shooting. Police and Border Patrol officers fired a combined total of 35 rounds during the shooting: eight in the hallway and 27 in the classroom where Ramos was killed.

Introduction
This one's personal.
I remeber when this happened. It's on a personal level for me because Katelyn and I were born the same year, 2004, and I was going through some of the same issues she had around the same time. Struggling with mental illness, abuse, self harm and being hospitalized were issues I had to deal with, and at such a young age. This story absolutely breaks my heart on so many levels. So let's talk about Katelyn.
Katelyn Nichole Davis was born on February 20th, 2004 in Rome, Georgia. Around the time of her suicide, she was living in a trailer with her mom, Tammy, her step-dad Anthony and her 2 younger half siblings.
Livestreams
She was known as "ITZ Dolly" on a platform called Live.me where she recorded multiple hours of live streams of her everyday life where she would sing, take care of her younger siblings, do her makeup, talking to the chat and answering questions they had. During these streams she would sometimes break down and cry and share how her mom was selling drugs and doing pills, and how her step-dad tried to have sex with her. People also often asked her if her siblings were her kids because they were always on her streams.
Katelyn talking about how her step-dad tried to rape her
She says after she denied his advances, he called her a "worthless whore" and that she should hang herself. "He hated my guts but then he still tried to get in my pants" He told her to hang herself because she wasn't worth it.
Katie used vlogging to cope with her mental illness and poor home life. She shares how her home is practically unlivable, a piece of her wall is gone, she has no door and there is a hole in her floor leading outside. She wrote in "Diary of a Broken Doll" that one time a bird flew into her room through the hole, and how its extremely cold during the winter. She was worried about getting sick from the leaky pipe completely soaking her floor because "cold + wet = sickness". Her shoes would often break and fall apart from the floor being wet so she only had one good pair of shoes.

Another thing she wrote was that her bed wasnt even a bed, it's an old rusty mattress on the wet floor.
Sometimes she would have Hundreds of people watching her streams, so they were all seeing this. They were all witnessing her living conditions and hearing all of these terrible things from Katie, so you think they would be worried enough to take action right? Most of her viewers were much older than her and they would ask her creepy things like if she lives alone. She once said "I'm not doing that! Im not taking my shirt off." And "yes I'm wearing stuff under my pajamas." Like who in their right mind is saying these things to someone who is so young. And it's not like theh didnt know, Katie has said countless times that she is 13. She has reminded viewers this over and over again so they are well aware she's a child even though they are saying these weird things. During all this she just keeps asking herself "why are all these people trying to get with me?"
"Im Thirteen" (she dosent seem super uncomfortable in this case, but in others she is)
Although, she did enjoy being complemented like in the video above because she was "used to being insulted" (being called pretty and told she is nice)
One time during a stream joking around with her little brother someone said "perv and proud" to which she replied "What? You're being a perv?? Thats my little brother! He's 4! Im 13!" Then she blocked and reported the person and began expressing how that is not okay. She also said the person was trying to get her and her little brother to touch inappropriately.
She was also a victim of catfishing, a girl named Alexa was pretending to be a boy named Ben and tricked Katie for months which affected her greatly.
She did end up dating a boy named Luke who was 19. Luke is a weirdo, in a stream talking about Katie after her death someone asks him how old he is to which he replies that he doesn't give out his age. Dude is clearly an adult you ain't fooling nobody
Katie talking about Luke
Bullying
Katie talking about how she gets bullied and how Anthony told her he would go buy the rope for her to hang herself

People would call her Ugly, an Emo freak, a monster, and one boy called her a lonely demon girl in front of the whole class while passing out papers.
Katelyn's dad
[lv_0_20240419210400.mp4]
When Katie talks about her dad, she describes him as wanting nothing to do with her, and even saying she doesn't have a dad. When she tried to see him he was uninterested, even though he only lived 2 miles away from her he still did not come see her. And when she was in the hospital after trying to commit suicide with pills, her never visited her or cared to see how she was doing. In one stream, she said the last time she saw her dad was in the store and when she tried to hug him, he walked away from her.
Katelyn's mom
Let's talk about Tammy for a moment, a neglectful, abusive, drug addict of a mother. Katie talks about her mom in a stream and explains how she mostly deals drugs, but she used to eat pills but now she crushes them up and snorts them right in front of her
Katelyn talking about how her mom sells and does drugs, and how she leaves Katie with her 2 younger siblings for hours at a time
Katelyn says if she asked her mom where she was going, she would just say she was going up the road but then would not come back home for a while.
In one stream, just the day before she committed suicide, the two have a heated argument.
Tammy is yelling at Katie to come out here, when Katie says she's getting dressed her mother continues to yell at her saying she doesn't care, and "get out here before I beat your ass" Katie has her phone hidden behind the curtain before she goes out. Tammy is complaining about the kids making a mess or whatever, Katie says that it is not her fault that they won't listen to her, and that she keeps leaving her to take care of them. Tammy said she told her to whip the children if they don't listen, which Katie replied that she can't because when she does they still don't listen. Lots of things were said back and forth, Tammy kept saying she was gonna whip her ass and that she needs to go back to the hospital. Katie brings up everything How Tammy did not get rid of Anthony as soon as the abuse happened, how shes snorting pills, bringing guys home and kissing up on them, how she's expected to do so many things and the pressure is just getting too much for her. You can hear the pain in her voice as Tammy continuously brushes her off and just won't listen "she didn't take her pill today" and "its none of your business what I do." She makes excuses for just about everything Katelyn says "I'm just trying to make money" when she brings up the selling drugs and "is he here now? No he's not still here" to the Anthony thing even though Katie's whole point was that she didn't make him leave immediately.
I can only imaging the frustration Katie was feeling during this, she had nobody except the people watching her streams. And if this was the way her mother was treating these issues then she must've felt extremely invalidated. She had no support other than her viewer's.
December 30th, 2016
The following video is the last stream Katie made before the one where she died
On the evening of December 30th 2016, Katelyn started a live stream on Live.me, it starts off with her walking outside, looking at thd camera with a blank stare as she walks toward the tree in her backyard. She has her hair and makeup done. She puts down the phone and spends about 15 minutes tying the rope to the tree.
Once she's done, at 16:56 she picks up her phone again and apologizes, saying she's sorry she's not pretty enough, she's sorry to the people who watched her streams, and she's sorry she wasn't strong enough. She cries and repeatedly apologizes over and over again. She puts the phone back down and steps up, putting the rope around her neck and continues to apologize. She says sorry to Luke, Sorry to Ben, to God, to everyone as she continues to cry. You can hear her breathing very heavily as the reality began to sit in. The first time she says goodbye, the rope begins to choke her a bit. she's scared, hesitant. She apologizes again, says bye, and kicks away whatever she was standing on. The sun is setting, as it gets darker and darker you can eventually only see a silhouette of her swaying. Before it gets too dark, you can see her clenching her fists and shaking as she spins for a bit (2 common effects while hanging) although there isn't too much flailing like you see in other videos.
Around the 30 minute point, Katie's phone begins to ring and go off multiple times. Towards the end of the video, you can hear her mother calling out to her from the house. Then the stream ends.
Circulation of the video brought media outrage. Why did it take so long for the video to be removed? Why can't the police force sites to take it down? All of these missing the point completely. They were more worried about how she died rather than what caused her to take her own life. Investigations were done on the family but nothing came of it. Other parts of the media were supportive and worried about youth depression and suicide.
Conclusion
Katie would've been 20 last month, its been 8 years since she committed suicide. Whenever I feel suicidal, I think of Katie. I think of how suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Things can and will get better, you just need to try to believe that they can. It breaks my heart to think about how she was so young, only 12. There's no reason a 12 year old should've been taking care of little kids for extended periods of time, there's no reason she should've been held up to such expectations. 12 year olds are meant to be playing outside, participating in sports, hanging out with friends etc. They failed Katie, she needed help and nobody gave it to her. No child deserves to be bullied or treated the way she was treated. She deserved a normal childhood. Rest in peace Katie.
If you or a friend are struggling with suicidal thoughts and feel you may be in danger of hurting yourself, I highly recommend calling 988 or visiting the site. Find a trusted person to talk to, it gets better.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, it means a lot to me.
