The 13-year-old brother of Julliani Plascencia, 8, was shocked to find him unconscious on the floor of his parents’ bedroom with a scarf wrapped around his neck, while the other end of the scarf was wrapped around the door knob. Just hours before the discovering Julliani, his brother says he came in and announced that he was going to hang himself. Not thinking much of his little brother’s words, the teen threatened that he would tell their mother Julliani was saying such things. Meanwhile, the boys’ mother, Shfawn, stepped out for a quick trip to the grocery store.
After some time had passed and the teen didn’t hear anything from his younger brother, he went looking for him and found him lying unconscious on the floor. He acted quickly, dialing 911 and calling their mother. When Shfawn arrived back home, she tried to give Julliani CPR, but unfortunately, her attempts were unsuccessful. The paramedics eventually arrived on the scene and were able to revive him as he was being transported to a Sacramento hospital. Unfortunately, Julliani fell into a coma after arriving to the hospital. He died hours later.
Julliani’s father, Ronnie, spoke to News 10 about the tragic incident, expressing that he did not believe that his son took his life on purpose.
“He must have been re-enacting something he saw on TV,” said Ronnie. “He probably knew it was dangerous but not the severity of trying it out.”
Family members remember Julliani as a child with a big heart who frequently gave money to the homeless out of his allowance.
“Let him be happy in heaven, because I know that’s where he went,” said the boy’s heartbroken mother. “His heart was too big for this world.”
We send our prayers to the Plascencia family.
