NYPD confirm the death of YouTuber Desmond Amofah, aka Etika
@nypdnews:
We regret to inform that Desmond Amofah aka Etika has been found deceased. https://t.co/sedwZZxglw
Almost a week ago, Etika uploaded a final video to his YouTube channel titled "I'm Sorry." While the original video was taken down due to breaching community guidelines, others have taken to reuploading the video.
The suicidal message in his video quickly prompted the NYPD to search for him. Over the next few days, his belongings were found on the Manhattan Bridge and later his corpse was retrieved from the East River.
