The family of a US teenager who committed suicide live on the internet has condemned viewers and the website for failing to save him.
19-year-old Abraham Biggs - who lived in Florida - took a fatal drug overdose after announcing his intention on his blog.
When he hadn't moved for several hours some viewers finally notified the site's moderator, who then called the police.
An investigation has been launched.
