THE family of a youth who took his own life on the internet last night blamed viewers and the website for failing to save him.
Abraham Biggs, 19, of Pembroke Pines in Broward County, Florida, took a drug overdose on a live video streaming website on Wednesday. He died after posting a suicide note and his sister said that, despite his warnings, police were called in too late.
