Jadin Bell dies

 

Openly gay teen Jadin Bell, who hanged himself two weeks ago after being pushed to do so by bullies at his school and on the Internet, died this morning at a Portland hospital. You may recall that he was taken off life support last week. Bell was just 15 years old.

Jadin was a cheerleader at his high school, something that makes me feel closer to him. What a tragedy for him, his family, his friends and for those whose bullying led to his death.
