Edward Leclair, a 57-year-old American male, killed himself after receiving a court sentence that found him guilty for sexually assaulting a kid.

Leclair ingested a deadly quantity of sodium nitrite, according to an autopsy report from the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s office on Tuesday.

The paedophile reportedly began consuming the substance that caused him to pass out in his cell and die soon after as soon as the jury found him guilty on August 11, 2022, according to the Daily Mail.
