Man attempts to commit suicide by cop; police decline and take him into custody without harming him.
After he was handcuffed, Jean made several comments indicating he had been attempting to commit suicide by cop including, “Why didn’t you just let me tap out? If this was any other place in the country, I’d be dead.” It was later revealed that Jean had been arrested about two weeks prior during an incident at Boston Medical Center when he attempted to take a BPD Officer’s firearm during an unprovoked attack

Look, I really don't want you to. But you should know -- there are different kinds of deaths. And if you WERE planning on ending your life, some ways are a lot worse than others.

Please, don't kill yourself. But, if you DO, please don't try to overdose on Tylenol. Yes, it will kill you. Very slowly, and very painfully, over three to four days. It will kill your liver, and you will die as your entire body is destroyed system by system by your own body's toxins. Don't do that. It is a very, very bad way to go.

And also, don't drink bleach. The main thing you will do is burn your entire throat and stomach, and you probably won't die, but you will be in pain for the rest of your life. If you DO drink enough to kill yourself, it will be just as bad as the Tylenol thing -- the bleach will be eating holes in your throat, stomach, and probably lungs.

Just... don't.

I understand that these sorts of things are tempting because they're easily accessible. And, yes, they CAN kill you. But, see, the reason people don't bother to keep them locked away, mostly, is because they're so intensely painful that they figure that that should keep people from using them to kill themselves.

And they're right.
