Daniel Knott: Mum's heartbreak at online video of son's body

A mother who lost her son to suicide said her grief was amplified by a video of his body being shared on social media.

Daniel Knott, 39, died on 27 March and days later his mother Jenny Tancock was told about the distressing video.

Jacob Morse, 22, was sentenced to six weeks in prison at Llanelli Magistrates' Court on 18 May after pleading guilty to circulating the video online.

But Morse, who had been working nearby, came across the scene and filmed Daniel's body using his mobile phone before emergency services arrived.

But seven years ago that changed when Daniel was involved in a serious car crash which left him with a fractured skull and a broken back.

Jenny said speaking out would be worth it if it could prevent "just one person who is tempted to take a video and share it under any kind of traumatic circumstances."
