Comment: Glorious country: Epidemic of suicides in the police; France, number one in the consumption of anti-depressants; an oppressive educational system which breaks children, sometimes even driving them to suicide at ages as young as FIVE; and the MIVILUDES' anti-cultists are worrying about "cults" committing mass suicides in 2012???
Three police officers in the Paris area committed suicide on Thursday, all within a few hours of each other.
Daily newspaper Libération reported that the first of the three officers was found dead some time around 8am on Thursday. The 29-year-old had killed himself "with the help of his service weapon in an unmarked car" in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, according to a source quoted by the newspaper.
The second police officer shot himself about one hour later, at 9am, after shooting and killing his ex-wife.
Reports said the woman had just returned home from taking her two children, aged 5 and 7, to school in Chevilly-Larue, south of Paris.
