A young boy is dead, and newly surfaced mental health evidence has left those who were supposed to protect him scrambling for answers

The family of a New Hampshire boy who died by suicide is now alleging that repeated concerns about his mental health and persistent bullying were not taken seriously by those outside their home. Josiah Michael Dwinell tragically passed away on Thursday, March 12, just eight days after his 13th birthday.

Per UNILAD, Josiah’s family said he had been dealing with persistent bullying at school and on the bus in the period leading up to his death. His aunt, Shaena Stebbins, shared some pretty heartbreaking claims about the struggles the young teen was facing. She’s also set up a GoFundMe page to help the family with funeral and medical expenses.
