Theban King Oedipus does not kill himself with a brooch or with anything else in the play "Oedipus Rex."
Instead, it is Theban Queen Jocasta who kills herself. She commits suicide once she realizes that her beloved second husband Oedipus is none other than her son from her first marriage with Theban King Laius. When Oedipus finds Jocasta dead, he takes the brooches from her robes and stabs himself in both eyes.
But Oedipus' actual, natural death is not covered until the subsequent play "Oedipus at Colonus."
No, Oedipus does not kill himself at the end of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Oedipus does not express an interest in killing himself at the play's end. Instead, he indicates that he wants to live in exile instead of being executed. He makes no attempt to escape or change his fated punishment other than to blind himself and then try to influence Creon, his brother-in-law and royal predecessor.
