Comedian Robin Williams died of hanging on Monday morning,
said Marin County
Lieutenant Keith Boyd made the
announcement at a Tuesday press conference at the Marin County Sheriff’s Office
in San Rafael , Calif.
Boyd said that Williams, 63,
was suspended with a belt around his neck. He was clothed and rigor mortis had set in.
Police said the actor was found by his assistant in a seated position in his
home in Tiburon, just north of San
Francisco
There were also superficial
wounds found on one of his wrists, said Boyd, indicating that Williams may have
tried to slash his wrist before the hanging. A pocket knife was also found
nearby the scene.
An investigation is ongoing
into his death, which was due to asphyxia. His publicist noted that the actor had been struggling
with depression as of late, and recently entered a 12-step rehab for drug

Williams was last seen alive
by his wife on Sunday night.
The investigation is ongoing. A toxicology report will be
conducted but will take two to six weeks to be completed.

Why a person want to kill himself or herself ? I can't understand anymore. We shouldn't take our lives for granted, we should cherish them. However the difficulty is, just face it, and there always has ways to solve it. Ending life is not a good choice.
回覆刪除What we see is not always what it is. We can saw Robin always bring laughter to the audience, but we didn't notice that behind his smiling face was a person feeling lonely and stressful. However, if something make us upset, we should ask for help. Killing ourselves is the least choice.
