∙ 10y agoBecause he was homosexual and he could not live with life.
^awful answer.
He was convicted of 'gross indecency with a male' in 1952. Instead of prison, he chose chemical castration - injections of the female hormone cestrogen, which it was hoped would suppress homosexuality. The injections destroyed his athletic frame and made him very bloated. They set him on a slow and sad decent into grief and madness.
