Suicide
On May 9, 2016, he took his own life at the age of 34. A few days earlier he demonstrated, as often, on the streets for the right of children to intact genitals, but apparently didn't talk to anybody about his great pain.
His last Facebook entry (May 8, 2016) is:
| “ | To all of the mothers who protected their children from genital mutilation in the face of pressure from their community, religious leaders, family, or spouse/partner, thank you for putting the safety, well-being, and human rights of your children first. – Jonathon Conte (Facebook) |
Jonathon Conte will always be remembered for his great engagement and support for the Intactivists movement. But above all, he will be linked to the Bloodstained Men.
