‘Storage Wars’ star Darrell Sheets wrote about ‘Facebook bullying’ in suicide note before his death

"Storage Wars" star Darrell Sheets left a suicide note citing "Facebook bullying" prior to his death in April, according to a Lake Havasu City Police incident report. The handwritten note, found in a closet, read "I could not take anymore the Facebook bulling, f*** you [redacted]." His girlfriend told police that Sheets had been unable to sleep, and after finding him standing in his office doorway, she heard a single gunshot. The report also noted that Sheets' son Brandon had recently been in a verbal argument with his father over "family drama," and that his daughter-in-law had texted him claiming the girlfriend was stealing money. The girlfriend stated that Sheets was "sad and upset" because of the text messages, and that arguments escalated to shouting. She said he "didn't want to be alone with them" and was "devastated" and "sad as hell" after the visit. The report noted Sheets faced chronic sleep deprivation and had been stressed, though he never mentioned self-harm. Sheets was found dead on April 22 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, with the medical examiner confirming suicide in May. His "Storage Wars" castmates said he was living in fear over alleged cyberbullying that had been happening for three years.
