A 'controlling' boyfriend told an inquest how his girlfriend fatally self-harmed at a top public school while he watched on FaceTime. Jeremy Mak, 18, claimed Joy Chan 'accidentally' hanged herself during a lover's tiff. Mr Mak raised the alarm from his home in Hong Kong but when school staff arrived Joy, 18, was unconscious and died four days later in hospital. In his letter to Joy's parents which was read into the record, he admitted he went into a rehabilitation centre aged 14. Joy's parents flew to her hospital bedside after the tragedy last February and gave permission for her organs to be donated when he life support system was turned off.
