RIFLE RANGE BOY: Michel De Lottinville

Michel De Lottinville

I personally do not know this guy, Michel De Lottinville, a teacher of pre-university students, a father, a friend, an author, a motivational speaker, a runner, a biker, a Canadian and a basically fun guy, from what I see from his blog.

I just happened to bump into this sharing of a letter on Facebook complaining about the inappropriate pictures of him appearing on terrestrial TV after his apparent suicide in his apartment.

Dear SJ Echo and NTV7 and any other media outlet that chooses to disrespect the life of Mr. Michel De Lottinville.
Your newspapers/channels should be ashamed.
You knew his name, you knew where he worked…. in fact, you published it.
The dead human being is a teacher, a father, a friend.
And all you chose to publish is the picture of the body and a video of the body hanging there? This is objectifying a human being. Someone loved. Where is the humanity? Where is the respect?
Mr. Michel De Lottinville was a classroom hero. An inspirational voice. A guy who lifted a lot of other people up from their own difficult struggles.
Those who know him will remember him for who he really was, and not for these final hours of his life that you like to promote. He is not an object.
[What] heartless ‘journalism’. Get to work….. if you are going to cover a story, cover it properly.
