Leelah Alcorn, the transgender teen who ran in front of a semi in suburban Cincinnati last year, left a handwritten note on her bed the night she decided to walk three miles to the highway and end her own life. The note read, simply, “I’ve had enough.” Her parents threw it in the trash after they found it. Alcorn’s mother, Carla, retrieved her daughter’s suicide note from the garbage at the request of Ohio State Highway Patrol investigators, who officially declared the 17-year-old’s death a suicide after compiling a lengthy report, released on Wednesday.
