When You Witness a Man Burn Alive

  • Summary

  • The Private Record — Episode 37 — When You Witness a Man Burn Alive This one is short and sweet... actually... hmm... not exactly 'sweet', per se. More like the opposite of 'sweet', in fact! Because, as the title suggests, this episode features a story about a boy named Philip (now an adult— but at the time he was only 12 years old) who randomly and entirely unexpectedly happened to witness a grown man BURN HIMSELF TO DEATH... ON PURPOSE. We're going to leave it at that, but for full context (and to satisfy anyone who finds themselves morbidly curious) here are some links to news stories detailing the tragic and horrifying scene Philip unwittingly stumbled upon... Brief summary of events, from The Keene Sentinel (local news source): https://www.sentinelsource.com/news/local/man-who-set-himself-on-fire-had-a-history-with-courts/article_a2d27492-9840-11e0-9fe9-001cc4c03286.html The man's (rather lengthy) suicide note (or, in his words, his 'last statement'), also from The Keene Sentinel: https://www.sentinelsource.com/news/local/last-statement-sent-to-sentinel-from-self-immolation-victim/article_cd181c8e-983b-11e0-a559-001cc4c03286.html WARNING FROM MATT: the man's 'last statement' is not only very long but it is also incrediblyyyyyy upsetting.
