cyber-bullying is deadly

January 3, 2008




A local girl was drived to suicide when she couldn't take anymore bad e-mails and text messages from a made up "Jhon Evans" a neighbor who lived down the street from Megan Meier (the one who committed suicide).  The name of the name of the person who caused Megan to do what she did is Lori Drew. Lori Drew had done this by creating a MySpace profile. The profile was for finding out what Megan was saying online about Lori's teenage daughter.

Watch the video to see what Megans parents are saying about this.

    This should all tell us that the internet is a mysterious, dangerous place to be. I hope that none of this will happen to any of us.
