be careful with advising this to somebody who wants to "make them pay", i.e., use their own suicide as a punishment to others. it might serve as an encouragement. e.g:

the fact that this was done not to disappear but as a spectacle suggests that he meant to scar the other(s) for life with horror and guilt. guilt is a powerful weapon.
i think such a person should not be given incentives, i.e., be told that their ploy will be successful. "you'll scar them for life" "good! the bastards will pay!". an emotional kamikaze.
im no expert in suicide prevention btw. i only prevented my own non-teenage suicide when i thought i had no exit, but as it turned out, i did--- sometimes you just have to endure the shit long enough and a door opens. but different people have different motivations.
