The kid killed himself over a 2 hour punishment apparently. Something tells me he had much more issues going on.

Yeah. You could possibly point to this specific incident as being what pushed him over the edge, but people don't commit suicide over two hours of much of anything (the the possible exception of genuine torture). He very obviously had deeper mental issues that needed addressing. I can understand why the parents would rather blame this one incident than admit that they missed months or years of suicidal ideation, but I don't think that's how blame should lie here.
