We dont know what caused him to do it,  its easy for us to justify (right and wrong)  without ourselves being in that other persons shoes.

prolly find out he had mental problems that forced him over the edge ( no pun intended)

  Most people who commit suicide don't do it in public, could have been foul play involved.  If it was suicide, he should'nt have risked other peoples lives like that.

  This is what I found

BURTON (WJRT) -

(12/04/11) - An incident shut down a busy Genesee County highway Sunday morning.

A man's body was found hanging from an overpass along Northbound I-475 near Bristol Road in Burton.

On-scene investigators say it appears he took his own life.

I-475 was shut down while police investigated.

Southbound lanes remained opened, but a red car was involved in a crash on that side of the highway.

how sad. suicide is such a selfish thing to do. it is never the answer, no matter how messed up you are emotionally.... it makes everyone else suffer, and the person who killed themself gets the easy way out. very sad

 Sorry to say, they don't get the easy way out.  They still have to meet their maker.

G/f's mom works with a friend of the guy and she said ...
his wife was a alcoholic and they got a divorce, he wanted to get back together with her and she wanted nothing to do with him.

not sure if that was what did it or if it just added to his problems.

I agree, its the easy way out of this place but he still has to meet his maker.
