A South African man, Sibusiso Lawrence, shocked the nation by confessing to murdering his girlfriend and sharing graphic images and a video of the crime online. He later took his own life.
A man named Sibusiso Lawrence from Scottburgh, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa , shared a graphic picture of a dead woman on Facebook on Tuesday. The woman's throat appeared to have been slit. He also shared a video, with his face drenched in blood, confessing that the dead woman was his girlfriend and that he had allegedly murdered her. In the disturbing video, he said: 'You will say I'm violent. You will say I'm violent. I tried... I have worked hard in my life trying to satisfy a woman.
I was trying to make her happy. 'I tried to make this woman happy. I tried very hard. I lost a lot of things, even money. But she got pregnant and gave birth to a child that was not mine. I persevered and provided for the child. Then she got tired of me and dumped me. Now I'm going to get RAF.' The SAPS in KwaZulu-Natal said that the man who confessed to killing a woman on a social media post was found hanging on a tree, not far from the scene where he stabbed the woman to death. Police were combing the scene this morning when police found him. It is deeply inappropriate and harmful to share graphic content of murdered women. This is not entertainment or something to be consumed casually on social media - it is the tragic reality of someone’s loved one, someone’s daughter, sister, mother, or friend. 'Sharing such content not only disrespects the victim and their family but also contributes to further trauma for those affected. We must treat these situations with the dignity and sensitivity they deserve
