Psychotic Man Fooled Depressed Kids Into Suicide Pacts

Nadia Kajouji

Mark Drybrough

William Melchert Dinkel - the man who talked to vulnerable and depressed people online and convinced them to get into a suicide pact and take their lives because it was the easiest way to end their suffering.

This is a very sad true story. In 2008, a young girl disappeared from her dorm room at Carleton University. Upon investigation, her body was found in Rideau River. She was a suicide victim.

However, unlike most 19 year old kids who commit suicide, Nadia Kajouji was a well liked girl but she was suffering from a severe depression ever since she had moved to her dorm room. Her friends and family knew a bit but not all.

Upon further investigation, it was revealed that Nadia was chatting with an online buddy whom she thought was a female nurse and with whom she had entered into a suicide pact. The nurse had made her believe, that it is the best way to end this suffering and that is to do it together.

Sadly, Nadia is no longer alive to know that she was chatting with a psycho who was 48 year old, William Melchert Dinkel. William used to identify depressed people online and entered into suicide pacts but had no intention of taking his own life. He advised vulnerable people on the most painless and effective ways to kill themselves.

William was found guilty for aiding Nadia Kajouji and Mark Drybrough from UK to take their lives. He was sentenced for six and half years in jail and 15 years in probation. However, most of the sentence has been suspended. He can easily get away with only 320 days in prison and then return to jail for two days in the next ten years i.e. on the death anniversaries of Kajouji and Drybrough.

I feel this is unfair punishment for the crime he had committed. Two kids lost their lives because he fooled them. Most people on the internet say this is a very light punishment for what he did and are not happy about it.

It is so saddening to see how kids talk to strangers about their depression and feelings. It makes them vulnerable and like most cases, internet can be gross and you can never know what sort of psychopath are you dealing with on the other side of the screen. Some people like William end up playing with the already disturbed minds of some kids and the damage is so brutal that they even end up taking their lives. The crazy man is alive and the depressed kids are no more. It all seems so unfair.

Lindsay Lohan - Disturbed Fashionista

Lindsay Lohan was charged with stealing a $2500 necklace from a Los Angeles jewellery store on Wednesday. It is predicted that the "Parent Trap" star could face up to three years in jail if convicted. It is quite possible that she would get into trouble looking at her past record.

However, the disturbed fashionista arrived in a very tight white mini dress that most people fell in love with. In fact, she was pleaded not guilty for her $2500 necklace stealing charge.  Most people think she has lost it and is a lost cause now. They feel it would not be fair if she is allowed to get away with her offences. She should be treated like anybody else who steal something worth 2500 dollars.

She is on probation for a 2007 drunk driving offence. She is twenty four years old and has spent  a lot of time in rehabs. In 2007, she spent 84 minutes in jail after police arrested her twice  for cocaine crashing while driving. Once she even crashed her Mercedes Benz into a tree. 

There was a time when Lindsay Lohan was considered to be an extremely promising star of her generation but she proved everybody wrong. She is always in the highlight for some offence, her rehab  time, probation, stealing or spending time behind bars. Her career has dipped several times since 2005. She is surrounded by legal issues, rehab visits and of course lots of flop movies.

Wesley Snipes awarded 3 year jail term

Hollywood actor Wesley Snipes has been ordered a three year jail term for tax-related crimes. Florida Judge William Terrell Hodges rejected a request from Snipes' lawyers to review his sentence and grant a new trial.

In April 2008, Snipes, 48, was found guilty of deliberately failing to file tax returns for 1999, 2000 and 2001.

He then launched an appeal and has been on bail ever since.But finally the judgement has been passed and people feel that it was the right decision. His lawyer will appeal to Supreme court now. Wesley, however, remained calm and positive throughout. He showed no anger or bitterness. 

But I don't really get it...the man must be quite rich. He has a name in the industry and has done many cool movies. And tax related crimes is not good. This is bad.

Behind the bars

2, 3 days ago I read this story about a man being released from jail after 38 years. This man was arrested in 1971 for some murder but there was no evidence against him. He was never put to trial & as is obvious he rusted in jail for years.

When Qadir Khan toured the central jail in 1999, he discovered that this particular man has been in jail for almost 28 years without any trial whatsoever.

Despite absence of witnesses, record, a police file& other legal requirements, the accused faced the trial for 12 more years due to legal lacunas, & lethargic process.

By the way, his name is Saeed-ul-Haq & he has lost the power of speech. He doesn’t have any family. This is what happens in a country where judges & lawyers come out on the road for petty issues & fun. They say that they don’t have enough courtrooms & yet they have the time to play politics.
