A 12-year-old girl named Katelyn Nicole Davis was found dead in the front yard of her family home on December 30, 2016. She hung herself in a tree while leaving the camera on live streaming in Facebook capturing the whole suicide incident.

"Sorry", this word was Katelyn's last as she jumps off the stand to hung herself. Allegedly, she had been sexually abused by their male relative. Police, who were alerted the video, rushed to the scene. Despite all the efforts in bringing her to the local hospital, Katelyn died.

The horrific video has gone viral. It reached as far as Britain and the police say that they are powerless to stop the spreading of the video in the internet.

According to the article posted in Tunisiesoir, Polk County Police Chief Kenny Dodd told Daily Mail that they have tried their very best to put the video down as much as anyone for the family and may also be harmful for the other kids. "We contacted some of the sites. They ask if they had to take it down, and by law they don't. But it's just common decent thing to do in my opinion", Chief Dodd added.

The video lasts 42 minutes and ends with Katelyn Davis hanging from a tree. In the first 21 minutes, the video shows Katelyn is setting up her suicide and talking about her life and her depression, which the teen confesses on her blog about her step father's sexual abuse to her. And the last minutes of the video shows, Katelyn saying "Goodbye" and hung herself.

Suicide is happening in many people around the world. Per NZ Herald, New Zealand suicide rate among 20-year-old to 24-year-old men has doubled and now higher than Australia at the same age. A recent study published in New Zealand Medical Journal, from 2009 to 2013, the rate for Kiwi men 20 to 24 years old was 29.7 percent of 100,000 people, which doubles the rate of Aussie men of the age group.
