Rep. Sean Casten's 17-year-old daughter Gwen Casten died on Monday morning The teenager died at the family's Downers Grove home, local police said

She described her fear at learning her father was in danger and how she felt no hope for her country

Illinois Congressman Sean Casten's 17-year-old daughter Gwen died on Monday morning at their family home.

The suburban Chicago Democrat's office said that the Casten family requests privacy after Gwen passed away without providing further details about her death.

'This morning, Congressman Casten's beloved daughter, Gwen, 17, passed away. The Casten family requests privacy, and we will be issuing no further comment during this heartbreaking time,' the office said on Monday.

The teenager died at the family's Downers Grove home, police told the Chicago Tribune.

Downers Grove police officers were called to the house just before 7am 'for an unresponsive 17-year-old female', the police said, according to the outlet. 'First responders determined that the subject was deceased.'

Gwen was active in the political sphere and followed in the footsteps of her father by fighting for social causes that she was passionate about, such as gun control.

“She thought she could pack her own gunshot wound.”

Stop the bleed training is worthwhile for anyone who might be a first responder for themselves or others. Training includes how to deal with accidents involving firearms, chainsaws puncture wounds, etc. In remote areas you can bleed out before help arrives, especially people on blood thinners. Try it before you mock it.

You are a mean person, suspecting the worst about a person with no basis other than speculation.

jdsteel's guess aligns with the most common cause of sudden death for people in that age group. I don't see you can ascribe ill intent from that.

The western oligarchs are very proud they are perverts—and they want other perverts to be proud too.

I understand about mollycoddling, but you sound just like those people who think the world is better off without all those “unwanted” babies and are for abortion on demand even to the moment of birth, and some, beyond that, even.

I really doubt that America is better off without this young lady. I don’t care if she’s a Democrat’s daughter. Her life was still valuable and precious. I guess that’s my opinion, though, and you are certainly entitled to yours.

My friend’s 19 year old Daughter has had 4 heart attacks after her 2nd ModeRNA jab. Her father just had a heart attack 3 weeks ago after his booster earlier this year.

In some ways, it is surprising there are only 100K ODs/year.

OD DEATHS you mean. How many more are saved with NARCAN or other treatments?

Then add in they are told you can do anything, and you can have it all.

But NOT told that it takes discipline, good decisions, work and self-sacrifice to GET it all!

kids are not finding fentanyl in a bowl of oatmeal- they are making the choice to take street drugs to get high.
Just say no.
