Is nothing sacred?
On Wednesday, TMZ published a story detailing Chester Bennington‘s previous suicide attempt nine months before his ultimate July 2017 death.
The November 2016 account was redacted from the Linkin Park frontman’s autopsy report, as requested by widow Talinda Bennington and her lawyer Ed McPherson.

Shortly after the story went up, Talinda BLASTED the Los Angeles County Coroner‘s office for dramatizing and sensationalizing the private information, and TMZ for posting the intrusive story.
Additionally, the mother says the details were redacted for the sake of Chester’s six children.
She wrote on Twitter:
Fun fact- When your husband dies by suicide, the LA County Coroner’s office will PARAPHRASE your private conversation with them to dramatize and sensationalize the story and then SCUMBAG FILTH like TMZ post it for the world to feast on. It was redacted to protect all the kids!!

Out of everything, Talinda is worried her kids will be bullied at school with this troubling information.
And now I get to go pull my 11 yr old out of school- because all the kids can use their phones at lunch-to be the first to tell him what REALLY happened in Nov. Thanks again to SCUMBAG reporting. FUCK YOU TMZ
