(Except Leon S. Kennedy is a character from resident evil who very much did have something happen to his head, but everything else is real)
Rosemary really should be at the top of the leaderboard, because it wasn't her choice and it was family who organised it.
i somehow doubt the rest were by choice either
Oh I'm well aware, it was the combination of the two that makes it worse.
For example: JFK was killed without consent by a stranger.
Rosemary had a lobotomy performed on her without her consent under orders from her family. So the fact it was family and not a stranger makes it worse in my opinion.
Otherwise, suicide is a choice, so it lessons the fact that it was done by someone very close (ie the one commiting suicide). It's a choice made when one is in a state of mind where they shouldn't be making choices of such magnitude, but it's still a choice.
I agree with you
Haha that Leon line cracked me up, was not expecting that.
"The instrument Dr. Watts used looked like a butter knife. He swung it up and down to cut brain tissue. "We put an instrument inside", he said. As Dr. Watts cut, Dr. Freeman asked Rosemary, for example, to recite the Lord's Prayer or sing "God Bless America" or count backwards;... "We tried to estimate thus, how far to further cut, based on how Rosemary responded." When she became incoherent, they ceased cutting."
Holy fuck
Then they put her in an institution for the rest of her life, all because they thought it would hurt their political careers.
In response to her condition, Kennedy's parents separated her from her family. Rose Kennedy did not visit her for 20 years. Joe Sr. did not visit his daughter at the institution at all.
Oh explanation I summon thy
I shall reply with another screenshot

More background on Rosemary. This is tragic.

Just the most soulless people ever.
Rosemary Kennedy was lobotomized.
RFK Jr: Doctor's found a dead worm in my brain.
Certainly explains some of RFK Jr's beliefs....
Wacky conspiracy theorist has literal brainworm. You can't make this shit up.
Cut him some slack, it was just a dead brainworm.
I remember reading about Rosemary before, it's really messed-up what happened to her
