This comment and the thread nested under it misrepresent the point Taren makes in her statement, which is not that MIT caused his death, but that MIT is making a claim of neutrality that is not true.
It is clearly true that Shwartz's prosecution was a major factor in his suicide, and, according to Taren, it is equally clear that MIT was a non-neutral party in assisting this prosecution. If these statements are true; it is perfectly reasonable to call misrepresentations by MIT about its participation a "whitewash" and a serious matter.
