Description
This episode does discuss suicide. If you are in crisis, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK to 741741.
In 2018, 21-year-old Brandon Caserta took his own life and how he did it was a message to the Navy. Following his death, Brandon’s parents have made it their mission to stop hazing, bullying, and abuse in the military by making it easier to hold those in charge accountable.
