A 20-year-old man filmed himself killing his baby daughter in an abandoned hotel in Thailand while streaming the incident live on Facebook, before taking his own life.
The horrific footage – posted in two videos that lasted over four minutes – remained accessible on the man’s Facebook page for almost 24 hours.
The crime took place Monday on the island of Phuket, and the alarm was raised by the baby’s mother who contacted police to say her boyfriend had posted a video on his Facebook page which showed him tying a noose around his daughter’s neck before lowering her body over the edge of the third floor of the abandoned hotel.
“You can hear the girl crying [on the video] and finally the crying stops. Then he pulls her up onto the rooftop and unties the rope from her neck,” a local police officer said Tuesday, describing the contents of the videos.
“This is an appalling incident and our hearts go out to the family of the victim,” a Facebook spokesman told. “There is absolutely no place for content of this kind on Facebook and it has now been removed.”
Facebook took down the videos following a request from Thailand’s ministry of digital economy. “We contacted Facebook today and Facebook removed the videos,” a spokesman said.
The ministry added it will not be taking any action against the company. “We will not be able to press charges against Facebook, because Facebook is the service provider and they acted according to their protocol when we sent our request. They cooperated very well.”
However because the clip was available online for so long, it has been widely shared on social media in Thailand – one TV station even broadcast the clip. While it blurred the faces of those involved, this decision was strongly criticized.
The man had an argument with his girlfriend in the early hours of Monday morning, threatening to kill her because he believed she was having an affair.
She then fled the house, but when she returned on Monday afternoon, he left with the child, saying he would be home later. Soon after, the video footage was posted on Facebook.
Facebook is still reeling from a controversy earlier this month when footage of Steve Stephens killing Robert Godwin in Cleveland on Easter Sunday was posted to the social network and remained there for hours before finally being taken down.
At the time Facebook said it was “constantly exploring ways that new technologies can help us make sure Facebook is a safe environment.”

Nope, can't watch it. I thought I could until I saw the poor baby. Damn I've seen gory aftermaths yet just the sheer sight of a child minutes/seconds away while it's oblivious from its' incoming death is something I didn't expect to not be able to handle.

I will never understand why people try to drag so many people into their death and horrific actions. Why was it necessary to get it on video that you killed your own child, why was it necessary to show yourself killing yourself???

This is why I don't believe in God. I don't believe in heaven. I don't believe in a greater power. And I try not to be so upset over the passing of loved ones. Because it could have been worse... like this. Or so many other horrible deaths I've seen.

Who said God had to care about us, be good or whatever? Don't you think that a superior being would be way beyond the human concepts of good or bad? The gap between us and a minor god would be far superior to the one between you and an ant, do you care about ants? Pretentious human.
Also there are countless of definitions of God, you could talk about THE ALL (representation of the Absolute, the only Eternal etc...) or simply a superior entity superior enough that we could see him as "God".
The Universe doesn't cares about you and nothing is a fatality as only God THE ALL is Eternal. If you're born blind in India, it just happened it is what it is, no need to torture your soul over it. Live or Kys it doesn't matter.

Okay, but in that situation please don’t kill your cat. It’s still deprived and you’re still taking an innocent animal’s life. Not saying YOU are going to, I’m just retaliating against that argument.

i think its more of a risk assessment argument.
option 1 the cat is guaranteed to die but in a painless way (vet)
option 2 cat goes to shelter, theres a % chance he gets an awesome owner, % chance of terrible owner, % chance of sick fuck.
for someone like me i would never take those chances, risk is too high

in the description for the video tho u can see that's not he was thinking. he killed the baby because he thought his girlfriend was having an affair. i don't think it at all had to do with him being worried for the baby. he probs killed himself after over guilt/not wanting to go to prison

Isn’t it also possible and indeed likely that someone else would take better care of your cat?
So by killing the cat you might actually be taking away a better life for him and thus becoming the very sick fuck you were trying to protect him from?
TLDR: Don’t kill your cat bro
