STORY: 11-Year-Old Mitchell Wilson Commits Suicide After Being Bullied
Phillip was a victim of constant bullying from classmates for being gay and repeatedly told his grandmother he had a rock on his chest and he just wanted to take the rock off so he could breathe.
According to WSMV, the family said it reported the bullying to Gordonsville High School in Tennessee on many occasions, but the situation kept getting worse for Phillip.
Phillip Senior told WSMV, “He shouldn’t have had to kill himself to be brought to life.” Phillip’s mother says that she did not realize the level of her son’s pain until it was too late.
A candlelight vigil was held Monday night in Gordonsville to honor Phillip’s memory as friends and family grieved for young Phillip.
Phillip’s friend also made him a Facebook page in honor of his memory. Rest in Peace Phillip.
