Sad stuff. There was another high profile ref that killed himself a few years back. Anyone recall his name? RIP.

Richard Green killed himself. Mitch Halpern killed himself. Now Toby Gibson commits suicide.

3 high profile refs killing themselves. Very strange and so sad.

I read the most likely demographic group to commit suicide are men over 50.

This is true for all races and in all countries.
