No, I don't think they are even meant as a deterrent (except in cities where they are monitored). They just help LE go find the body before it's mistaken as a homicide, thereby saving the police hours and money.
Sorry for making a bit light with your serious post, Ducky. And it really isn't funny. I just am interested in the methods authorities use to try and deter suicides. Where I live, the local papers refuse to publish any news of a suicide, thereby depriving them of a spectular exit and 15 minutes of fame. Wonder if it helps as a deterrent?
