Raymond Holm
09.11.1983; Buross, Sweden.
He was convicted in the early 2010s for shoplifting. He was the only one caught red-handed. He turned in his accomplices and testified against them in court, which is why he received a lighter sentence. After getting out of prison, he found that his wife had sold all their belongings and disappeared in an unknown direction.
He works at a car repair shop for a meager salary. He rents a room, lives in squalor and poverty. He spends most of his earnings on cheap, strong liquor.
He hates himself for his betrayal and for allowing himself to sink to his current state. Subconsciously, he wants his old friends to find him and end his miserable life. But no one comes.
One night, he was wandering the streets, completely drunk. He was so fed up with everything that, in a sudden impulse, he thoughtlessly climbed onto the bridge railing and jumped down. He didn't die, but he suffered fractures.
While recovering from his injuries, he came across a brochure by Dr. Schmerthloeffer. He had nothing to lose.
