My dad was at the Fulton state hospital for an evaluation before they sent him to the state prison.I was just wondering if there was anyone who may have heard about this in a newpaper or t.v.news.He had commited suicide while he was there and also wonder if anyone knows of any other cases similar to this.

My dad had commited suicide at the Fulton State hospital recently. He was there for an evaluation before they were going to send him to the state prison.Was wondering if there was anyone who may remember reading any articles or hearing anything on the news about this happening. I'm a native of Missouri and I'm familiar with the city of Fulton.

In 1970/71 I was on the juvenile girls ward, and watched a man on the roof of the dining room. He was going to kill him-self. He laid on the edge of the building, with the staff watching and talking at him. I watched this man literally roll himself over the edge and fall to his death. And heard the "POP" of his head.
For years I guess I just dismissed it out of my head, as a HORRIBLE
NIGHTMARE, never to be remembered. Sadly, A little while back, it has, for some season unknown to me,come back to haunt my thoughts, and that horrible sound!! I was a 17 year old teenager, and now at 56 it decides to haunt me. I told my son and grandson about 1 yr ago about it, but funny this is the very first time I have ever went to the internet trying to find out anything about it. But sadly, now that it is back in my head, it won't go away.
I hope you find Peace, as I was only a kid at the time, something tells me, now that it has come out of the hidden parts of my memories, its not going to go away.
