I think that’s a stretch. Her husband cheated on her, her boss took advantage of her in this emotionally vulnerable state, she was ostracized/shamed for her actions and mischaracterized in news. I can see that pushing anyone into self-immolation territory.
That specific kind of suicide is unheard of in ones own home and even more for a woman. It’s one of the worst eays to go and is the kind of thing one does to make a statement. If she self immolated it would have been in front of him or somewhere public. Uvalde didn’t even investigate.
First off you are right. Self-immolation is much rarer than I thought. This study only had n=51 over 13 years. I have nothing on location of the event.
Also women commit self-immolation slightly more often than men post COVID, but that might be skewed because of women in Asian countries.
As for a coverup, self-immolation is a hellava way to not draw attention to yourself. I think doing it in public only slightly less extreme than doing it at home. Less risk of being stopped halfway through?
It is unfortunate Uvalde PD is handling this. Being a congressman from Texas could definitely allow you to influence a murder investigation in Texas by Texas police.
HE MURDERED HER AND BURNED THE BODY.
Uvalde Police Department is going to be under another investigation before the last one ends.

So I found a study.
