'Someone found my son's dead body... and then posted a video of his body on social media'

A mum who lost her son to suicide has told of her horror after learning that a 'sicko' posted a video of his body online. Jacob Morse, 22, was jailed after he took a video of Daniel Knott and shared it on social media.

She added: "I haven't seen the video, I couldn't watch it but the thought of it is unbearable. It is worse than if he had walked into my house and hit me over the head with a baseball bat. It is hard to explain the pain but it is a physical thing." Unfortunately a car accident seven years ago was life-changing for Daniel, who suffered a fractured skull and broken back in the collision. He was struggling with severe pain and hated his mobility issues that had robbed him of many of the things he loved to do, and in March last year it got too much for him.

"For this man to then share it online, where it has gone ‘viral’ for the world to see, is unbearable. I have not seen the video, I have only seen a screenshot, as I don’t think I could bear it - but imagination is probably just as unbearable. It is all I can think about. It is tormenting me every minute of every day.
