a friend of mine is an EMT, and a guy he works with got called for two suicide attempts for the same girl. she tried to slit her wrists, but cut across instead of down both times. the second time he got fed up and taught her the right way to do it. she didn't survive her last attempt. he was fired.

JUST fired? I'm pretty sure he'd be prosecuted or sued as well.

Isnt the emt somewhat liable for her death now legally? If not, it's not really the right thing to do, although it is hilarious.

I just called my friend and he said the guy was brought to court too. no details beyond that though. in all honesty he's clearly liable. the girl was unstable and he provided information that led to her death.

sorry for the hijack.

There are three veins in the neck that have to be cut off - there's the two in front but also one in back -

actually, a knot in FRONT is one of the most painless and easiest ways to go - it sorta prevents too much strangulation from lack of oxygen and cuts off the blood flow directly, which is what you need to do the ol' death from above.

If the knot was bad (i.e.- located poorly) - and left the means for oxygen or blood to get thru to the brain, then he's just gonna have a REAL sore neck.

veins don't provide blood to the brain. and hanging someone ideally kills them by snapping their neck, not by strangulation.
