英国女子发帖自杀 数千网友见死不救

2011-01-10来源:和谐英语

  Charity worker Simone Back, 42 and suffering depression, died of an overdose on Christmas day after she left a suicide note on Facebook which was responded by her Facebook friends' ruthlessness。

  Back posted her final status update at 10:53pm on Christmas Day: "Took all my pills be dead soon so bye bye every one." The first friend responded: "She does it all the time, takes all of her pills," adding: "She's not a kid anymore." At 11pm, one of Back's friends wrote in response: "She ODs all the time and she lies."

  On January 5, Back's mother Jennifer Langridge, 60, demanded to know why none of her daughter's 1,082 Facebook friends tried to save her. "Nobody told me anything about it until the following day. I am disabled so can't get up the stairs to Simone's flat so I called the police straight away. It is upsetting to think nobody did anything for my daughter."

  One of Back's friends, Samantha Owen, said: "Everyone just carried on arguing with each other on Facebook like it wasn't happening. Some of those people lived within walking distance of Simone. If one person just left their computer and went to her house her life could have been saved."

  After the discovery of Back's body on Boxing Day, Langridge posted a message on her daughter's page that reads: "My daughter Simone passed away today so please leave her alone now."
