Default Selwyn Davis TX RIP Suicide

I am sad to report that Selwyn Davis has taken his own life at Polunsky.

He had an unsuccessful attempt earlier in the year, but this time he managed to succeed.

Very sad news.

Rachel

Indeed so. Rest in peace, Selwyn Davis (7 February 1982 to 24 July 2012).

It angers me that he was able to stck pile medication. He should have been given help. Instead he was able to successfully kill himself. Be at peace! Sympathy to his loved ones.
