Shame Over: Mother and Daughter Suicide Tragedy In New Jersey
In Audubon New Jersey on March 4 police read diary entries detailing a mother Vivian Gordon death and a 16 year old Keehraan Bischoff Benita who killed herself days after her mother's body was found in New York. The diary notes mark February 22 and March 1 to 3 with references to changing her name to Frederica and turning on the jets as she prepared to die. Benita’s grandmother is Mrs Margaret Sanders of Philadelphia and her father John E C Bischoff is district of Columbia reformatory superintendent. The estate of Vivian Gordon was valued at about 350000. Clifford A Baldwin Camden County prosecutor concluded Benita died by her own action citing closed gas jets in the kitchen. Benita lived with her father most of the time after he divorced Benita’s mother in 1926.
