Yes they did. And they will be convicted of doing so....But it is a stretch to make them evil and or hopeful of the outcome that happened.

Well broadcasting others that are having sex or hooking up without their consent seems pretty evil to me. And I doubt they would have done it if he was straight.

I don't think they wanted that outcome, but they got it.

If he were straight, would he have killed himself because of it? Doubtful.....Again, no one wins here. It is a lesson.

Probably not, but it doesn't make what they did any less wrong.

Is this now a potential involuntary manslaughter case?

Also agree.

It's very sad and a very extreme case. But would you want to be charged with a crime for something you said to another poster?
