American Girl Goes to Japan to Commit Suicide

Skye Lynn Budnick is an American college student from Connecticut with dark brown hair and a pretty bad case of depression. When she disappeared on April 1st, family member checked her email inbox and found evidence that she had bought a one-way ticket to Hokkaido. They also found a suicide note addressed to one of her friends, saved as a draft. They're pretty sure she went to Japan to die, because she had told her sister in the past that that was what she wanted to do.

Her parents and sister flew to Hokkaido, got the US embassy involved, held a press conference, and are launching a full-scale search.

I wonder why Skye chose Japan as her final destination. Maybe she's heard stories of all the various ways that people commit suicide there, and was intrigued. Or maybe she just wanted to see the cherry blossoms, which bloom later this month in Hokkaido. Maybe she just likes manga and anime and Japanese men. Who knows? I hope they find her.

How hard can it be to find her in a city with many asians? its like a bottle of coke in a pile of raw rice.

I hope it will be fast.
