33-year-old Frederick Jay Bowdy had moved from Texas to California to become an actor. The LAPD was drawn to his Facebook Live after suicide talk. For a while, people thought the stream was a joke due to Bowdy being an actor. He proceeded to kill himself before police could even get to him.
Last week Bowdy was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault. He posted $100,000 bail. As of right now, no one really knows what he committed suicide, but people are assuming it has something to do with this. This is the second time within the past week that a young person has committed suicide via Live Stream. Very sad. Just last week, a young teen from Miami committed suicide at her foster home in Miami.
