would this apply to people that have killed themselves after abuse or bullying?
Or those people that when they see someone on the ledge encourage them to jump?
This nurse was publicly humiliated before the whole fucking world.
I wouldn't have a clean concience if I had given someone that level of grief and they topped themselves.

To be fair...
...he does clarify that it's because there was no reasonable expectation this would be the outcome. And I think that's fair. Most people who get prank called don't kill themselves. I don't know of a prior example? The DJ's didn't humiliate her in front of "the whole fucking world". They made her look a bit silly in front of a small percentage of Australians. The BBC probably embarrassed her in front of more people she knew by running the story. And I don't think they are murderers either.

Did they get a release from her to broadcast? Nope.
This isn't some bit of investigative journalism, it's taking the piss out of some poor nurse for shits and giggles.
Also of course it was going to be picked up on the global networks, to think otherwise would be naive.
