    The idea of psychosis leading him to strip his clothing, crawl into a confined space, and then drown is eerily similar to the case of Elisa Lam (the young lady who drowned in a water tank on the roof of the Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles).

    A few years ago, my neighbor's teenage son left to go hang out with friends or whatever. His mom said he left the house completely fine.
    An hour later, he was walking along the highway, naked, acting erratically, like screaming and clawing his face, stepping in front of cars until one finally hit him. He survived, somehow. They asked his mom if he was a drug user, she said no but toxicology was positive for LSD.
    He has no memory of any of it, but that could be because the head injuries he sustained were severe and he lost a lot of memories but nobody really knows how or why any of it happened.
    The theory is that he met up with a friend who gave it to him and either took it willingly or was tricked, he doesn't know.
    Some of these weird cases remind me of that

I think you need to do it by spinal fluid.. and the emounts are extremly small and are methabolized very fast into proteins ur body contains. no ordinary drug test from either police or hospitals check for lsd. And as a drug user for 34 yrs I have some experience regarding this.

      Please report people walking on the freeways. No matter how “innocent” appearing.
      It is bizarre to see a man walking on the shoulder in the direction of the traffic, in the direction AWAY from the nearby onramp out of a nice neighborhood, no parked vehicles from where he was walking (along the shoulder). If he needed a telephone, the correct direction to walk would be the opposite.
      He wasn’t flailing his arms or acting “weird” in any way. But where he was headed was nothing but freeway for CARS, not people.
      Of course, something was wrong with the guy… 😧

      My deepest condolences to Noah’s mum… this is absolutely heart breaking and disturbing to the core hearing this as a mum..
      Reading into Noahs case and some of Fiona’s interview, it is incomprehensible how can a teenage boy’s de*th be so easily ruled as su*c*de over how the boy can be supposedly confused about his s*xuality. That is ABSURD… not to mention no boys of Noah age would think along of drowning in a dark locked water drain as their choice of exit….
      Mental health is so important, but to use it as a way to justify an unexplainable case is just discriminatory and lazy. I truly hope your friend Fiona gets insight and justice for Noah..
      Please stay safe..

      Basically a kid that may have been gay decided to be brainwashed by the loser/grifter Jordan Peterson and in the end decided he was evil and after hearing Peterson rant about sodom and gamohra and how the entire society was “killed by his for being gay” killed himself to make up for it. Too bad mentally ill people, especially kids, can’t detect it in others like Jordan Peterson.

    When i was 14 the neighborhood i was living in had a really bad flood. All us kids were playing in the water when one of the neighbor kids who was only 10 went running through the water to catch up to his friends and got sucked down a storm drain that the manhole cover had got blown off of. I watched the entire thing happened and us kids tried everything to try and find him until the adults showed up. They ended up finding him that day about a mile down river from where the storm drain lets out. Of course he was gone. It could have been any of us, none of us thought about that happening.

    People might wonder why Dr Jordan Peterson is in the thumbnail. Jordan Peterson does have something to do with the case. I've studied this case as I'm from Belfast and when Noah went missing, he was spotted on his bike without his backpack on. Police concluded that he must have dropped it or someone took it from him. His bag was eventually located and the contents inside except his laptop. However there was a Dr Jordan Peterson book inside his bag, this confused the police as they didn't except such a young boy reading Jordan Peterson. Furthermore, on Twitter Noah before his death was speaking to a Twitter user who was claiming to be Dr Jordan Peterson and Noah was speaking to him in his DM's. The police believed this to be the real Jordan Peterson at first and established contact with Jordan Peterson to fully confirm that it was him. However it wasn't, the police had to make sure.

    Storm sewers typically don't fill up with water unless there's a storm. That's why engineers came up with the idea. It's a nice way to handle and divert a lot of extra water. In any case a storm sewer is considered a confined space in most developed countries and every maintenance person entering one must be trained on confined spaces and there's a whole protocol that must be followed BEFORE entering. The dangers of confined spaces cannot be overstated. Oxygen deprivation kills in less than 30 minutes. 3000' down a tunnel is not a great spot for oxygen unless there are many air ducts. This person could have easily died from oxygen deprivation. If water carried his body 3000' that would be obvious to the medical examiner. If he crawled 3000' on his own power then he likely died from lack of oxygen. If I was the mother I would launch a civil lawsuit against the city for not installing the padlock on the gate to the storm sewer. If the padlock was installed as it should this child may very well still be alive. I could be wrong but that's my take from what I've seen in this video.

      "Bloke", eh? So you're in the UK?
      An aspect of this case stood out to me from the American standpoint: Under the USA's laws/Constitution, the police do not need judicial approval to withhold some aspect of an active investigation. Over the rather large pond from us Yanks, under English/Scottish/Welsh/Irish laws, must the police generally disclose to the public/news media every sordid detail of a crime unless under Judicial authorization NOT to?
      My guess is that the Police Service actually DOES suspect foul play and they wish to withhold something of which only the guilty party is aware.
      My hypothesis is that the autopsy revealed a drug the effects of which are consistent with the individual stripping off. Somebody surreptitiously and with malice administered such intoxicant to the victim and the police want to trick him/her into admitting to doing so.

    I'm afraid it will be difficult for anyone outside the north of Ireland to get to grips with a lot of the issues surrounding this case due to a lack of context about the history of the Troubles. There are serious issues here with sectarianism on both sides and racism particularily within the loyalist community. The police here have a long history of corruption and collusion with loyalists, the use of criminal informants and covering up their crimes has been commonplace for decades. An individual who attempted to murder me 20 years ago was released with a suspended sentence after commiting several other serios crimes he only went to prison a year later for commiting a murder.

    What a truly heartbreaking story.
    At first, I was convinced that the poor boy was being victimised, hence the disappearance of his headphones, backpack and clothing.
    But on hearing the “full story” or as much as the police allowed, I think your conclusion is correct. I believe he was having psychotic symptoms.
    These stories are always hard to hear, as we all want to believe we have full control of our actions. Hearing about people whose perceptions and consequently, their behaviours became dramatically distorted is a truly frightening scenario for us all.

      I think that it makes a lot of sense. Noah was trying to rid himself of some perceived ‘sin’ to do with his sexuality. He tried to baptize himself, it didn’t work. So he tried a more intense version, and it killed him. I think the reason the police don’t want to release all the info is because it will tie things to Jordan Peterson’s teachings, and potentially cause problems for them. If that’s the case, us a cowardly way out.

I know you folks are well meaning and Dr Grande is certainly worthy of praise, but over time it gets old. Many people look to the comment section to read and discuss further insights. Granted many times they can be two of the same, but I'm not talking about that. If you really want to "connect" with a host, try asking a thought provoking question or making an intelligent insightful comment about the subject at hand. Donations also certainly make a big impact. Let me make one thing clear, I am picking on this site, it is obviously the sign of a thriving channel when so many people to take the time to write a kind note but I see this on many channels and, in the end, it brings little to the table as far a discussions are concerned. Hitting the like button is more important to the algorithm and it alleviates the pressure of the host (or assistant) to give out hearts to the kinder comment.

I just can’t see a sane person taking off clothes because they want to be baptized. He was on the hunt to baptize himself but due to the head injury went into the storm drain.
