And she feel like everybody – like nobody likes him, everybody hates him. That’s how she felt, because he’s in his house by himself. He put a rope around his neck, but he had a knife also and he almost blacked out. He managed to cut the knife – to cut the rope. He was hanging. He didn’t tell me this, but her sister told me what he did. He spoke to me – talk to me when he came to the house. He said that he’s really afraid that the children will be taken away and that if they’re moved somewhere that the people, they don’t know. They might be moved in there."
