No I know this person said these things. She's had a bit of a falling out with the family (what's new hey?) because nobody likes her partner. He was abusive to his ex-wife and is showing signs of abuse to my cousins now. He and I used to get along pretty well until we got in a fight and he said that if my cousin wanted to kill herself he'd be more than happy to give her the knife.
Of course after that I got rather vocal about it all and we dont talk. Now the rest of my family wont talk to him either, after my cousin was pretty much dumped suicidal on my doorstep in the middle of the night for me to look after.
My mother decided not to be nasty and ditch her like everyone else, but all they did was ***** about everyone in the family. My mother had enough and left.

That's just the basic story anyway, there's a lot more to it than that, but I can guarantee what my mother said was true.
