KINGSTON, Jamaica — Relatives of persons killed in traffic accidents suffer immense emotional strain, and many unanswered questions linger when gruesome photographs of the deceased persons, as well as the mangled remains of motor vehicles, are splashed across social media. These are stark and, often, unwanted reminders.
It’s an unbearable experience for one mother, Jean Davy, whose son was tragically killed in a crash along the North-South Highway last year, the anguish of which was multiplied tenfold, she said, as photographs of her son’s body were circulated on several social-media platforms via cell-phone recordings, the Jamaica Gleaner reported on July 13.
She now pleads to the public to consider the pain of family members left to suffer the loss and is asking for compassion and empathy. http://jamaica-gleaner.com/article/lead-stories/20180713/please-stop-it-hurts-mothers-plea-quit-posting-crash-victims-photos
