TV crime show host Wallace Souza went a little too far to boost ratings. He orchestrated murders so he could tip off camera crews who were in the area when the event happened.
But the strain of this lifestyle seems to have told on Souza. He died at a hospital in São Paulo, Brazil, after having a heart attack.
Souza is not the only tv worker to bring about his own downfall, but his story is more dramatic than most. It's a tough business and not one for the faint hearted.
Everyone in the video industry should think about his case the next time they are asked by a prospective employer if they are prepared to go the extra mile or if they are totally committed. Souza clearly should have been committed and put in a mental institution, not a tv channel.
