Scandal = suicide

An American US pastor committed suicide six days after his name was exposed by hackers of the Ashley Madison adultery website, his wife told media.

      

Canadian police have said that at least two suicides were linked to the leak of 32 million customer profiles from the Canada-based site last month. It's not clear if John Gibson's death was one of them as police released no details.

      

Christi Gibson discovered her husband's body – and a suicide note which chronicled his demons and his shame at being exposed – in their New Orleans home on August 24.

      

"He talked about depression. He talked about having his name on there, and he said he was just very, very sorry," Gibson said as their adult son and daughter sat next to her in a New Orleans studio.

      

"Nothing is worth the loss of a father and a husband and a friend. It just didn't merit it. It didn't merit it at all." –End-
