It's obvious he committed suicide as the Police would have gone public with their search for a murderer. It is none of our business and the family has no obligation to share the cause of death with the public. I'll keep his family in my prayers. In addition, the media makes a point not to report suicides unless it is at the request of the family. The death of this child is personal to the family and will not make any difference in my life one way or the other. As a parent, I understand their grief but I cannot to pretend I know their pain as I have never experienced this. I'm sure at some point they will share their story many months from now when it might be less painful. Suicide attempts are the only warnings when someone commits suicide. If they're successful the first time the parents had no way of knowing or preventing.

I know the woman who found him. She does not know the cause of death and never confirmed that it was a suicide. She doesn't believe in jumping to conclusions and is waiting to hear what the police determine.

Adolescents are too young to realize suicide is permanent -- that they're not going to magically revive or come back -- that someone isn't necessarily going to find them in time or be able to help them. Suicide prevention is something every school needs to incorporate into its health curriculum. Even so, there are times such a tragedy will occur in spite of parents' best efforts. I don't really need to know the "how" in this case, but I wish I could know the "why" so that I could help my kids as well as other kids. Then again, when it comes to depression, it can be very difficult to detect if the kid is hiding it. The awful part is that a child can never fathom the nightmare they leave behind once they have "solved" what they perceive to be a hopeless situation. To the poster who mentioned bullying, I don't know if that was a factor in Bryan's case, but it certainly is in many other cases. Bullying has ratcheted up several notches via the internet, and just the hardened and in some cases twisted attitudes people demonstrate towards other people. Perhaps this insensitivity has been born from kids growing up playing games in which characters are expendable and violence is commonplace. Perhaps it's because values have shifted and the emphasis is on looks, power and money, rather than character, intellect and kindness. I just wish I could help the Glenn family but the kind of brokenness they now feel is so all consuming...

BRYAN P. GLENN

From the Washington Post:

[ Please note that the wording used to describe the burial is typical of alluding to 'cremation,' and since the father may be entitled to burial or more likely a grandfather/other relative who is already in place at Arlington, the lot of you jumping to your biased, ill-informed, and typically ignorant and arrogant trolling is out of line.

But then again, you bloody ignorant Americans don't need much to jump to conclusions do you? ]



Bryan Paolo Glenn was born on April 12, 1995.

He disappeared on October 1, 2012 and was found deceased on October 8, 2012.
Bryan was loved by people all over the world.

He attended high school and cherished his time and many friends in Heidelberg, Germany and was currently a senior at W.T. Woodson High School in Fairfax, Virginia.

He was a world traveler, an avid boy scout, a football player, a passionate soccer player and fan, and a friend to all he knew. Bryan dreamed of a military career as a helicopter pilot.

Bryan is survived by his mother and father, Michael and Rosella, brother Marty, and extended family in Colorado, Nebraska, Oregon, and Northern Italy.

A memorial Mass will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at Holy Spirit Catholic Church off Braddock Road in Annandale, Virginia and is open to the public.

The burial will be at Arlington National Cemetery at a date to be determined.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made in memory of Bryan Glenn to the Wounded Warrior Project

(www.woundedwarriorproject.org/donate)

Bryan, we will miss your smile!

It was in the Post obit. A question, to the guy who first mentioned this, there are thousands of WWII bets at Arlington, why wouldn't his father and others be eligible?

Paragraph B:

"b.Any retired member of the Armed Forces. A retired member of the Armed Forces, in the context of this paragraph, is a retired member of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, or a Reserve component who has served on active duty (other than for training), is carried on an official retired list, and is entitled to receive retired pay stemming from service in the Armed Forces. If, at the time of death, a retired member of the Armed Forces is not entitled to receive retired pay stemming from his service in the Armed Forces until some future date, the retired member will not be eligible for ground burial."


As I recall, eligibility was tightened up after Viet Nam, since it was clear that space would become a problem. My parents, both WWII vets but not drawing retirement pay since they only served "duration plus 6 months" researched and learned that (at least then) they'd be eligible for the Nat'l Cemetary at Culpeper. Ultimately they decided on Fairfax Memorial since it was closer to home. They still had the opportunity for "military honors" but we declined that.

Not necessarily. They can only do so many burials a day. There is a backlog.The time frame for when one dies and when one is buried at Arlington is 2-3 months. This pretty much applies to every one (retired,spouse,dependent child etc.).The exception is for active duty who are killed for instance,in Afghanistan. They get top priority and their burial is immediate so to speak.

World War II vets that fought to save this country from Hitler AND THEN RETURNED TO CIVILIAN LIFE after the war are not eligible to be buried at Arlington.

Hitting the beach at Normandy under withering German fire ain't good enough to rest at Arlington. But a retired lifer that spent most of their career at the O-club or the golf course AND THEIR FUCKING KIDS are good to go.

You may be confused. I was the one who posted the link to the policy that showed that Bryan is entitled to be buried at Arlington due to his father's active duty status. Others have objected, saying it's unfair since people like my parents are not. I didn't say that I think it's unfair; I merely gave the history behind the change, because I remember when it happened.


World War II vets who are not eligible for burial at Arlington are entitled to other burial benefits, some of which I mentioned. I left the rest out for brevity.

Many thanks to the poster who provided the obituary, I didn't see it in the paper. Also thank you to the poster(s) who shed light on who is eligible to be buried at Arlington. I guess since Bryan's Dad is or was a Colonel he will be buried there and wants his family to be together. For those who don't like that, don't worry, there are people like my 97 year old WWII Vet Dad who will be buried at National Memorial Park alongside my Mom even though he's entitled to be buried at Arlington. Since this happened with Bryan I am starting to hear about more cases of suicide amongst the teenagers and it's really sad. I wonder if the suicide rate has increased in the highschool population in the last 30 years. Again, I don't know what happened to Bryan, the jury is still out so to speak. And, we may never know. But I feel so heartbroken for Bryan's family because never in a million years did they see this coming. Shocked doesn't even adequately describe how they feel. The students at Woodson are grieving and I don't think anyone really knows how to help them except to listen to them and let them know they are cared about.

As soon as an 'official' statement from the authorities is released stating this was a standard issued suicide, this thread and the others will sink and disappear like a stone in the ocean. While morbid onlookers will undoubtedly find the next local tragedy to sink their teeth into. Until then, speculation will continue like how he could have rigged an inverted-strap-yourself-in-hand-cranked-dunk-tank and slowly submerged his head while woodland creatures played the banjo and harmonica and danced macabre into the night around him.

So, with that said, I hope it's not truly "months" until something official and definitive is released so this boy can rest in peace and his family can begin the healing process and not have to deal with the nagging thought of this stupid thread continuing to bubble.

There is an option. You could stop reading this thread. But no, like so many, you'd prefer to silence others. Why can busybodies never live and let live? If you don't like something, don't do it / buy it / watch it, etc., but stop trying to force your views on everyone else!

Another thought/question for people that knew Bryan
Posted by: Disturbed City Resident ()
Date: October 15, 2012 02:04PM

First, I'd like to give my condolences to the Glenn family. No one should have to experience the pain of losing a child, no matter what the circumstance.

I am curious, mainly to his friends who did know him very well, the claim he could/would never commit suicide b/c he was a great kid who is close to his family & friends, wouldn't ever do drugs etc....my first thought of a "good kid" is someone who doesn't/wouldn't skip school. That was my first question from day 1.....if he is willing to skip school, which from what I've heard of people who knew him, is not something characteristic of him, is it possible he was able to hide his emotions or feelings, or suffering from depression? Is it possible he was involved w/drugs recently & his friends of a long time didn't know he had gone down a different path?

It is still very possible this was a murder, but w/the lack of Fairfax City & County Police doing their jobs efficiently, it's possible there is a murderer on the streets of Fairfax City, who will not be held responsible or charged with murder. Just b/c he was found in a "standing position" which leads people to believe he was hanged, doesn't mean he killed himself. It is very possible for someone else to have murdered him, and set it up to look like a suicide.

It's very tragic, no matter what happened to Bryan. A family is w/out their son, a brother missing his older brother & friends, family & residents w/out answers to many questions.

May Bryan Rest in Peace & his family find comfort in Prayer, and all of the people who have shown their support in one way or another.

I'm afraid it takes a lot more than a pissy little troll who claims to be from the UK to "arse" me, my nancy friend.

The fact that you would elbow your way onto this thread is puzzling, but after you've had a few tips from the gin bottle, no doubt your facilities are a bit disorganized. Your facile use of the word "nigger" shows what a cowardly little racist Brit you are, no doubt still steaming about the fact that you're now a third rate country.

Tell you what, Oscar Wilde, leave this conversation to the adults, have your mum make you a warm cuppa tea and tuck you under the comforter...you'll feel better in the morning.

So to sum all of this up, a 17 year old left school, offer himself in the woods, was found a week later, and a handful of morons think he was murdered by a criminal mastermind who made it look like a suicide who will never accept the fact that it was a suicide because despite all the facts and evidence, they'll call cover up. Got it. Some people really are clueless.

@Thinkbox - I agree with you. It's SHIT that he's getting a spot at Arlington while some real vets who took a bullet for USA are shit out of luck on that. But to attack the kid just cause nobody's defending you? That's just straight bullshit and you know it.

I'm just telling you straight, yo. Your right to post whatever you want - but what you just said - that "nobody was defending you so why should this kid get defended" post you just put out there...............that was pretty pathetic.

Not fucking with you, I'm SERIOUSLY trying to tell you this as straight as I can.

@per - it's like we cant get enough CSI, right? And cause Horatio can do all this magic in 50 minutes, people honestly, actually believe the cops are derelict in their duty. Some out there are seriously thinking they are letting the TRUE masterminds of this "conspiracy" get away LoLz

no threads have started with GordonBlvd killed himself or the illest MC around MC Thinkbox blew his brains out. because we are normal human beings.

God bless you Bryan Glenn. Whatever happened to you, the world has one less wonderful young soul to carry on. I'm sorry I couldn't attend your funeral service today. But I will always think about you. My own son made a suicide attempt not long ago, and all I can think is that I am blessed to have another chance to help him. I never saw it coming, and I guess maybe your parents didn't either. Anyway, life goes on, but you will always remain in my heart.

In case you don't feel like reading: Most likely hung himself. Media blew up the case before we knew whether it was a runaway/suicide which it ended up being so now the local media are in an awkward position because they usually do not report on suicides. Awaiting medical examiner report to determine cause of death. No news until then and even then there may be little reported because it was a suicide.

In Virginia in 2010, there were 41 suicides of kids ages 10-19, and another 63 suicides by people ages 20-24. In Fairfax County alone, from 1996 to 2005, there were 107 suicides of people ages 10-24, or nearly 11 per year.

That's a lot. And the Post feels it's a disservice to report them? Like in the 70s when the Post did not report on drugs in schools thinking the problem would just go away.

Just another reason why newspapers are obsolete.

@That's a lot - I think you got it backwards. They dont report them cause they dont want copycats. I just say that cause years ago, you would get that sorta shit - ESPECIALLY when kids were involved. I remember one month in New Jersey where like 3 different mass suicide pacts with like 3-4 teens happened weekend after weekend for a bit

But yr right - newspapers are obsolete LoLz

another tip - most of those suicides are private. happening on private property. So it's really non of our business. If this kid killed himself in his house, it's not really ANY of our business at all, now is it? Not if the family doesnt want to discuss it publicly.............

Yes, the Post doesn't report a lot of things. Some of it is to prevent copycats.

Newspapers are not obsolescent because they provide a far more fair, balanced look at things than most TV stations do. Even the Washington Times (which I hate, by the way) is more balanced than Fox News.

I encourage those that are using words like, 1/2 n****, to see out therapy of some sort.

They're burying the kid at Arlington? That's ridiculous. Audie Murphy was a hero. Jonathan Wainwright was a hero. Tommy McGuire, Frank Fletcher, and the Heroes of Iwo Jima all earned it.

Bryan Glenn didn't do a damn thing to get there. I'm outraged that someone who did nothing for the Armed Services, nor for the country can be buried there. If I was Obama, I'd show some balls and say "No, he can't be buried at Arlington. Arlington is reserved for this country's heroes. Not for sons of military men who commit suicide."

My uncle Irving was on Omaha with the second wave. He survived the war, and helped pull his men off the beach. He didn't get buried at Arlington.

Some facts:

The searcher who found Bryan's body is my friend. She does NOT believe it was a suicide. The public may never know the cause of Bryan's death, because I'm pretty sure toxicology reports are private matters.

There were, however two deaths by suicide from Bryan's school in the previous 20 months and the Washington Post irresponsibly said suicide was the likely cause of Bryan's death. The WaPo article even went against best practices recommendations for how journalists should report on suspected suicides in teens - you should NEVER list the method.

35 % of teens are depressed in Fairfax County. The suicide rate is no higher than that in the nation. However, no one is measuring military teen suicides. That will soon be fixed thorough the Department of Defense. Suicide in Army soldiers between 18-43 is way above the national average - and only one third of them have been to war themselves. The Army is leading the nation in research and even weeks ago "stood down" the Army for an entire day of Suicide Prevention and Awareness training. I'm proud of the Army Leadership's response and how they play their cards facing out on this issue. There is NO SHAME in mental illness. The experts believe it is a generational thing - a problem facing our entire nation.

Military families have definitely been under enormous stress with the military member at war for the past 10 years. Please don't disrespect the military families by saying they are overly "strict" or putting undue pressure on their kids. I know this first hand - kids put pressures on THEMSELVES to live up to the expectations of their environment. That environment is created by well meaning schools, teachers, coaches, clergy, peers, and yes parents but it does take a village to raise a child. My kids spend more waking hours of the days with their teachers and coaches. They are who they are today partly due to the effect their awesome teachers and coaches have had on them. It is worthwhile to explore what our kids feel and to get them to talk about it openly.

Let's get mental illness "Out of the Darkness" and let's "Send the Silence Packing"

In the case of dear beloved Bryan Glenn - let him rest in peace. When/if Mike and Rosella are ready, they may tell his story so as to prevent whatever it was - whatever circumstances led to his fatality - from happening to another teen. They need time and privacy to grieve.

But in the meantime if you are a Woodson alumna or have a kid there,,. please consider asking the Principal, Jeff Yost what he is doing to create an environment there where kids feel safe to ask questions, reveal their innermost shame, ask for help, report on a friend they are concerned about, etc.

I'm not saying he hasn't done this, but he hasn't returned my personal offer to fund a Fairfax County Government Program that works in the school through local non-profits.

I'd love to see Woodson incorporate some positive events into it's fabric regarding Teen Mental Wellness. Look at what is being done at TJ, McLean, Langley, Madisson and South Lakes:

http://joshafoundation.org/news-events/

Woodson took down a memorial the students erected for Bryan - flowers, personal notes, stuffed animals, his favorite candy...

The Dance Team wanted to give Bryan's family the money they raised shortly after Bryan's death was reported. Nixed by Woodson Staff.

The football team went to practice the day after Bryan's body was found - heads down. They practiced as if nothing had changed. Why not take a pause and let the kids sit and talk - have a BBQ or something?

I don't expect grieving people to get everything right - but there are published guidelines based on research and evidence on how a school community should respond to a crisis so as to create a more positive environment in light of recent tragedies. I'd say three deaths in 20 months is a crisis. Call me over reacting. I can handle the name calling. I just don't want to see another needless loss of young, promising life and there are numerous things Woodson can do to try to ensure that doesn't happen.

Woodson is not to blame - pointing fingers gets us no where as a community. We need to partner together - schools/community non-profits/County Government and parents - together we can help the next teen at risk make a better choice.

The death of Bryan Glenn: Did the Fairfax County police mishandle it? Did the news media?
By Tom Jackman
http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-state-of-nova/post/the-death-of-bryan-glenn-did-the-fairfax-county-police-mishandle-it-did-the-news-media/2012/10/16/cdbbe820-124f-11e2-ba83-a7a396e6b2a7_blog.html

It’s been a week now since volunteers found the body of 17-year-old Bryan Glenn in a wooded area just outside Fairfax City. But the Fairfax County police have been silent ever since, while waiting for the medical examiner to issue a ruling on the manner and cause of death. The medical examiner has requested toxicology tests on Glenn’s blood, so it will likely be weeks before we hear anything official on this case.


Meanwhile, the anxiety level in the Fairfax area continues to rise — it is a constant source of conversation and nervous tension among many parents worried that Glenn was murdered. So here are some key facts: Bryan Glenn likely committed suicide by hanging himself, according to numerous officials familiar with the case. When he was found on Monday, Oct. 8, it was clear his body had been there for some time. However, to be sure that he didn’t die first of a drug overdose, the medical examiner asked for more tests. The police cannot declare a death a homicide, suicide, or anything else; only the medical examiner does that. Thus, the current delay, though Fairfax investigators have found no indication of foul play, and feel certain that Glenn died of suicide, probably on the morning of Oct. 1, not long after he was last seen.

Still, the official silence has left much of the public wondering several things: Why didn’t the police find Glenn sooner? Why haven’t the police released more information? And did the media, in particular The Washington Post, mishandle the coverage of the case?

Now you know why the police haven’t released more info — because they’re waiting for the medical examiner. For answers to the other two questions, continue after the jump.



The basic chronology is well known by now. Bryan Glenn, a 17-year-old student at W.T. Woodson High School, disappeared from school on Monday, Oct. 1. His car was found in Thaiss Park, a complex of Little League fields in Fairfax City, early on Oct. 2. A receipt in the car led police to the nearby Dunkin Donuts, where Glenn apparently made some purchases around 8 a.m. on Oct. 1.

There were no signs of foul play. Fairfax County police took over the case, since Glenn lived in the county, and investigated it as a missing — not runaway -- teenager. No press release was issued. Many teens go missing, usually of their own volition. They run away because they’ve done something their parents won’t like, or they’re on a lark with a friend or relative. The news media typically are not interested in teenage runaway stories.

But Glenn’s family and friends used social media to alert the news media that Glenn was missing. They said it was out of character of him to suddenly vanish, and sought help finding him. The Post chose not to publish a story on this, though reporters monitored developments. Teens go missing in all of the counties around D.C., not just Fairfax. Usually, they turn up soon, somewhere.

Local TV and radio news stations, however, picked up the case and ran with it. Their reasons were many: It was every parent’s worst nightmare; he was from wealthy Fairfax County; something horrible may have happened to him; or he may be found safe and a happy ending is written for everyone.

Though many teens go missing, the Fairfax County police brought out plenty of resources to search for Glenn, including blood hounds, the helicopter and bike teams. All were used to search both Thaiss Park and the long trail leading east into Mantua Park in Fairfax County.

So why didn’t they find him? Several reasons, none of which the county police are offering as excuses. They feel badly that they missed him. But on Oct. 2, the rain poured down for most of the day, and this probably greatly diminished any scent for the bloodhounds. The park is not densely wooded, but it is very large, and doing a grid search would have required a lot of time and manpower for a missing teenager, when there was no evidence of a crime. A grid search was not done.

And then he was found on Oct. 8, in the woods about three-quarters of a mile from his car, by a volunteer search party arranged by his family’s friends. It had all the indications of a suicide.

For many years, the mainstream news media have had an unwritten but widely respected rule: We do not cover suicides unless they involve a particularly noteworthy person or happen in a very public way. We do not want to glorify or encourage suicide, and also there are a surprisingly large number of them. In Virginia in 2010, there were 41 suicides of kids ages 10-19, and another 63 suicides by people ages 20-24. In Fairfax County alone, from 1996 to 2005, there were 107 suicides of people ages 10-24, or nearly 11 per year.

But when Bryan Glenn was found, the cameras and reporters were already in Thaiss Park covering the search. At that point, what do the news media do about their rule on covering suicides?

They couldn’t very well ignore it. So they reported the discovery, the searchers saying it was Glenn, and police saying they hadn’t confirmed anything yet. Police later confirmed his identity, but not how he died.

The Post was inclined not to report anything. A teenager had committed suicide. It was not in a public place. He was not a public figure. Reporting the suicide would violate the long held rule.

But the TV and radio news outfits were reporting it. Post editors decided to run a short story, sticking to the facts released by the police and the school system. Readers strongly denounced the way The Post handled the story.

“Encourage people to post their disgust with WaPo’s coverage of this incident,” one commenter wrote. Another: “I too am disgusted that the Washington Post ignored this story all week.”

The family and friends of Glenn tried everything they could think of to find him. Who wouldn’t? As a parent, the whole scenario evokes enormous sympathy. But kids run away in D.C., in Montgomery County, in Loudoun County, everywhere. How does a media outlet decide which missing child to spotlight, and which ones to ignore? In general, the media ignore them all. There are too many to cover, and nearly all of them turn up alive and well, with a friend or relative. That was the desperate hope of everyone involved in the Glenn case: that he had hopped in someone’s car and taken off for a few days.

The facts are that there were, and still are, no signs of foul play. Bryan Glenn was, in fact, a runaway. .

The police didn’t find Glenn. Discovering him on Oct. 2, the same day his car was found, would have perhaps saved his family from six days of anxious agony, but only plunged them more quickly into another, permanent devastation.

Could anything have been done before Glenn went missing? Maybe. School officials everywhere wrestle with that issue, all the time. We write about that. The suicide of another Woodson teen, Nick Stuban, was not reported when it happened. It made the paper only later when his parents spoke publicly about their belief the schools had played a role in their son’s fatal depression.

But when faced with a teenage disappearance, followed by a teenage suicide, how should the news media respond? And the police?

Ok..would she know what a suicide looks like to start with? What expirence does she have to say anything at all? Most people never see a dead body outside of a wake or hospital. This kid was dead in the woods for a week? Any idea what happens to a body in the woods for week? Its not pretty.

Your neighbor has no idea what she is talking about.

That's very true. Just because you have a rope around your neck doesn't mean you committed suicide, it just means your bad with knots.
