Girl, 9, kills herself after being jealous of her baby brother

A little girl ended her life because she was very jealous of her new baby brother, according to a statement released by the New York Police Department.
The girl, nine-years-old, is believed to have committed suicide in the bathroom of her home on Sunday after telling family members she wanted to die.

The girl, identified by police as Justice Williams, was found by her distraught mother hanging from the shower frame in their Bronx, New York home around 8:20 pm on Sunday.
Police investigators believe she may have killed herself because she was struggling to adapt to her new half-brother, and after her parents had placed her in treatment last year after she told them she was suicidal.
The mother, Tamiqua Torres, 31, went to check on her daughter because she felt she had been too long in the shower, and on entering, she found her daughter with a white cloth tied around her neck.
Family friends said that the nine-year-old had been seeing a therapist since she became distraught about the birth of her new brother.
Torres and her new husband, Raymond Torres had welcomed their new baby into the world, eight months ago, and had become the stepfather of Justice.
However, Justice began to tell family members that “she wanted to die” during the pregnancy of her mother.
