That comment is in its entirety... and is in direct response to this submission. I assume "they" is meant to be "Ortiz's office" aka "US Attorneys". I'm not sure what context makes it so that the commenter is suggesting something other than the US Attorneys encourage suicide.
- enraged_camel 14y agoI interpreted it to mean that the actions of many US attorneys - motivated by incentives to win as many cases as possible - push many defendants to commit suicide. I don't think the poster genuinely meant that prosecutors literally tell the defendant that considering the charges, he/she may as well off himself/herself. THAT would be encouraging suicide.
- jack-r-abbit 14y agook. So I'm not "out of context." We just have different interpretations of the comment. I can live with that.
