Kelsey Briggs (True Story)
Viral (Homemade, Shock)
[ 5:35 - from YouTube ]
Child abuse is devastating. Who can argue with that? Not the nearly 40 million people who've watched this homemade video, which was created to advocate laws that protect children from abuse. However, as one watches the changing images of Kelsey Briggs as she nears her murder, the video becomes strangely unsettling. Homemade tribute videos like this are complex. Their material has been a mainstay of tabloid journalism and melodrama throughout history. Is this another form of rubbernecking, or worse - a Reader's Digest of snuff films?
