A man in Knoxville set himself on fire yesterday. The article says it was related to some bad financial news but I wonder what happened in his life that would drive him to such a tragic decision?

Let me guess….divorce.
I’ll go with Red’s guess. Dr. H., didn’t you recently cover a similar case in your blog a few months back? And wasn’t that one ultimately about a father whose visitation rights had been abridged in some way?
Yes, I believe you are talking about Thomas Ball who set himself on fire on the courthouse steps after feeling jerked around by family court. I don’t know this particular situation but it is very sad.
